base will help you do this. A liquid
powder that matches your natural
skin tones as closely as possible will
give your complexion q fine. clear
look and keep down shine even
through prolonged tension and ex-

shade Of your own blush and learn
to apply 1t as naturally.
While makeup Is important, It Is
even more important that you give
extra attention to bringing your
skin to a state of perfection before
applying this finishing touch of
loneliness. Extra Scrubbing and
softening and stimulating as long
as possible before the event will
help. Try to have q professional IA

II this cannot be arranged, give
your skin a thorough dreaming at
home. Cleanse first, then apply q
mild soothing cream. working 1t In
with gentle upward movements and
patting. Finish by spanking with q

circulation and give the skin q

mony have everything you are 60
ing to wear or carry laid out.
Treat yourself then to the luxury
of a fragrant, relaxing bath. Do not
have 1t warm enough to make you
perspire. Your h ir sh GU d be
brushed of your forehead and pro-
tected with band or cap and your
face creamed for this. When the
bath is finished, wipe off the re-

with a piece of ice wrapped in
gauze. Move it briskly over cheeks
and throat until you feel delight
fully cool and refreshed and your
skin has q rosy look.
Now the powder base. I like q
liquid one on such occasions, as 1t
gives the skin such a natural. flne-

need much when your skin Is at its
best. Powder generously. but brush
on the excess. going over creases at
the sides of the nose. around the
mouth and at the hairline to insure
an even job. Put on your dress and
then finish your makeup.
Soft Shade Of Lipstick
II you use lipstick. be sure that
the shade is as soft and as nearly
like your natural color as possible.
Trace the outlines Of the lips first
with q steady hand. then f1ll in

your fingertips to blend the color

A more transparent effect can be
achieved by using cream rouge on
the lips instead of lipstick. In this
case trace the outlines Of the lips
first with lipstick pencil matched
exactly to the rouge shade. Fill In
