of uses. Because canned cocoanut
under careful preparation and
packing retains it's original fresh

GET EYE CHARM
When you Scuttle to the beauty
shop to be prettied for the festive
social gathering and indulge in a
facial, you will find that operators
are concentrating on eye charm.
The surrounding tissues Will have
all manner of creaming and patting,
refreshing congresses and, at the
end of the treatment. a touch Of
faint rouge You look like different
girl, not that you didn't look sweet
before you started on your beauty
pilgrimage. But treatments of this
kind do impart freshness. No doubt
about it. Worth the price, and gives
one an opportunity to relax and put
oneself together.
Your beauty teacher assumes
that, being member of this pull

countenance a bit of attention be-
fore you tumble into bed each

Pepper Time. During sleep the
facial tissues have q chance to feast
upon nourishipg oils, which counts
a lot in the long beauty run.
Apply cream to a clean skin sur
face. A rouSing face scrubbing with
soap Suds brings the blood to the
surface and conditions the flesh for
the tapping and creaming that are
to follow. Don't rinse with cold
water; use warm water instead.
And be sure to dry the skin tho

we'll on a moist surface.
HEAVY CREAM
Select cream that is of fairly
heavy consistency. Keep the thin
emollient for cleansing purposes.
Apply the cream with flattened
fingers, working upward from the
throat. Place the first finger on
the eyelid, sweep outward to the
temple, come back under the eye
to starting point. Be gentle. The
tissues around the eyes are soft and
thin, can't stand harsh treatment.
Tap the flesh over the face and
throat to exercise the underlying
fibers. While the cream is on fric-
ton with an ice cube.
When powdering do not include
the eyelids. The dull surface doesn't
bring out the fine coloring of the
eyes as will the mist one. Some
girls make it practice to apply
petrolatum to the lids and laShes.
