I'ime-Tried Tips
Given ON Care

A mild soap and water cleansing
for the face is generally advisable.
You may apply this with soft cloth
or a complexion brush, but do get
a good lather and work it into the
pores. Follow this with thorough
rinse ending with cold water which
acts as an aStringcnt.
Creams and lotions are also good,
but they can never take the place
of soap and water Use them with it.
Many different types of makeup
creams and preparations are avail
able, and the choice is up to your
personal preference. They help you
to achieve a smooth base for the
makeup and will make your face"
look nicer, smoother, and help it
last longer.
No extremes in makeup are ad-
visable. 1t is best to study the face
and to use light hand in applying
rouge, powder and lipstick. Simply
accent the natural lines and bring
out the best, but do not try to change
radically your mouth or eyebrow
lines.
Short hair is, of course, now in
style. This should be styled to the
shape of your face. If clever, you
may do it yourself; if you do not
feel competent, seek professional
help in cutting and shaping.

well groomed Brushing will help
immensely to keep it fluffy, or sleek,
whatever style you are using.

pounds, start checking your eating
habits Immediately Almost anyone
who is plump can reduce simply by
cutting out in-betWeen meal eating
and by staying away from starchy
foods.

is also important to the slender per-
son, for these are the people who
are always on the go, thus using up
energy.
There are several other items
that should find a place in your
care sheet and all of these would
do well to find a place in the daily
beauty check-up. First, how is your
smile? There should be a brushing
after every meal with stiff
bristled brush. Have the profession
al dental cleaning if you need it,
and take care of repair promptly.
Go over your nails as you give
yourself hand care. Polished, or not,
nails must be trim, cuticle smooth,
and the whole appearance immacu-
late.

give care to your feet. The nails
should be kept trimmed, and any

the face. Treat yourself to a pedi-
cure and see how much fun it is.
Cfeck clothing Habits
For Good Grooming
Hang clothing promptly as you
undreSS so that wrinkles are not
caused unnecessarily. Press cloth
ing on a regular schedule-net just
before you wear it.
Do your mending before launder-
ing, or while ironing. A good idea
is to have the sewing kit right next
to the ironing equipment.
Since suede is so popular for
gloves, shoes and bags, keep suede
dressing and a stiff brush handy so
you can treat your accessories be-
fore they become dusty and shabby.
Keep wells pressed and felt hats
brushed after each wearing. Use
cleaning fluid on the inside of the
hat so it will be spic and span at
all times.
Keep hose and lingerie washed
daily, if at all possible.
