get our your entire wardrobe and
see that everything is washed or
cleaned and with your own inge-
nuity and the help of your sewing
machine, whip up some crisp new
accessories that will make your old
clothes seem fresh and cheerful.
The activity alone is stimulating.
See what you can do for yourself
Maybe you can't afford a new per-
manent, but you can have your hair
shaped so it is less bulky and easier
to set. Pamper 1t with hot oil treat
mentS or give 1t a few Softening,
Frightening ShampooS and rinse
with lemon juice in the last water.
Brush it until it shines with life and
luSter and keep your couture simple
enough TO look neat and we'll
groomed with few roller curriers'.
How About Back?
Check up on some of your make
up and grooming habits. What
about Jour back view? Are you as
conscious of 1t as you are of your
front? Remember most people see
you from the rear. Before leaving
the house see that those hose
seams are straight, hemline even,
no showing slips or wrinkles across
the seat of your skirt. See that back
lines of blouses or jacket are
straight, that stray hairs are
brushed from the shoulders. See
that collars are clean, and back
hair brushed into a tidy roll or
CurlS. Your mirror tells the truth.
Consult it often.
Watch those often-neglcCted out
lines. When you apply makeup, be
sure it reaches the hairllne, then
take a small. clean eyebrow brush
and go over the hairs TO remove any
powder that gets on them. If cream
overlapS onto the hair, a tiny bit of
rubbing a ! c o n Oh on a cotton
wrapped orange stick is good for re-
moving 1t.
This Improves Lips
Other lines to watch are the Dor
ders of the lips. Here powder and
lipstick meet. TO be renewed all too
often in the course of busy day
and generally without you taking
the trouble TO cream or cleanse the
area. As a result, makeup and soil
are ground into the pores and Stub
born blackheadS form at the edge
of the sensitive lip tissue. Mouths
must be cleanSed thoroughly before
new lipstick is applied. If you are
away from home, the lips may be
tube in your bag and a tissue, or
with one of the mOlstened cleansing
pads that you carry. Include the
entire upper lip in the cleansing,
repowder, then apply fresh llpStlCH,
outlining the mouth carefully and
then using fingertip to blend the
color over the lip surface.
AT night be sure your mouth is
included in the thorough sudSy face
scrubbing. Only use the brush,
sponge or rough washClOth bit
more gently around the lips. When
YOU cream your face for quick
facial. apply. cream over the lips
and see that they get a certain
amount of manipulation, using the
fingers with light stroke from be-
low the lower lip, out and around
the corners of the mouth TO the
center of the upper lip.
or course, you know that make
up must be blended carefully about
the nose and eyes, that excess pow
der should be removed from nose
creases and around the eyes, and a
brush used to remove it from eye
brows and laSheS. If your ears show,
dust them lightly with powder to
dim any shine, then wipe with cot
ton so there are no streakS. Speak
ing of ears, to show them and touch
the tips slightly with rouge makes
a narrow face appear slightly wider
and prettierl Better makeup hab-
its make you more inspiring TO
yourself and to others.
