The Beauty Roundup

Instead Of making a hundred
and one beauty resolutions for the
coming year, most women would
do well to stick to three "basics"
that would make for prettier COM
plexions, hairdos. and for a more
intelligent use of fragrance each
day.
It's nice to have a peaches-and-
cream complexion. But what to
do If you haven't one? For one
thing you resolve to do something
about the one you've got. Promise
to give your skin more consistent
and loving care. Pamper it by
properly cleansing it. Remove
every last trace of dirt and make
up before you dream Of putting
on new makeup. Don't ever 60
to bed without first removing your
makeup thoroughly, not only with
q cleansing cream, but with a
soap and water cleansing routine.
Take time to apply the cleansing
cream carefully. Slapping cream
on, willy-nilly, isn't the answer.
Finish your cleansing ritual with
q toning lotion to stimulate your
skin and make it glow.
Resolve to shampoo your hair
at least once a week. If a trace
OF oiliness shows up do 1t before
the week is up. Immediately
clean hair is not just for the first
two or three days following the
shampooing. It's a week-long idea
that should be carried out.
Keep those wisps Of hair in
place by using a little brilliantine.
Al sleek hairdo only looks that
way because you guarantee 1t
from the beginning.
To help you keep your beauty
resolutions. may we suggest several
products put out by a fine beauty
house whose products live up to
the fine reputation enjoyed by
the house?
complexion aids include q fine
lavender soap that is rich and
soothing. Sensitive skins respond
beautifully to this luxurious soap
that provides such thick. creamy
Jather.
For dry skins there's a snowy,
velvety-textured cream that soft
ems as 1t cleanses. Their toning
lotion is another fine product that
Is stimulating and refreshing.
Don't forget that good COM
plexion care also includes using a
fine night cream. A good lubri-
eating cream is not just for Wo-
men in the 35-and-over bracket
as many younger lass might be-
lieve. Every complexion needs this
kind Of pampering to smooth
away rough-dry texture and to
soften those tiny, fine lines.

@. Els dancing q good exercise
or will it build ugly muscles?'
A. Dancing as a whole is fine
It not only gives you a physical
workout but an emotional work.
out If you dance to music. which
virtually every one does. II you
are speaking Of ballroom dancing,
nothing could be better. Other
forms Of the dance are fine. too.
I suspect you got the impression
that dancing builds big muscles
when thinking Of ballet. Up to
q certain point this is not true
Of ballet even. It gives you poise
and grace and a fine symmetrical
figure. Sometimes years spent in
this activity will leave a woman
with large hips. thigh and calf
muscles. Often experts look bet
ter on the stage than in a suit.
The average girl or woman does
not have to think Of this, and
many well-known dancers have
lovely figures. Anyway, any one
who dances so superbly will not
mind larger than usual muscles
for the sake Of art.
@. my lips are so cracked and
dry! I have sore cracks at the
corners and one or two more
places. What causes this?"
A. OF course, you may be using
q lipstick which is too dry OF
maybe you are allergic to 1t. Try
using one Of the oily, colorless
lipsticks for a while. Also,
strongly advise you to take vita
min B complex capsules. ASK
your doctor what kind and how
many a day. Vitamin B def
cheney can cause the condition
you describe.

A. Yes. you are overweight. Ac-
cording to average weight charts
you should weigh only ia pounds.
Actually. if you are small-boned.
you probably should not weigh
more than 10 pounds. Take two
waist exercises. one abdominal ex-
ercise and one hip exercise and
do each one 35 times daily. Also
adopt sensible diet.

to expand and curve my hips.

please tell me how much q girl of

A. You should weigh around

builds lovely contour. Also do
this: Stand with your left side
toward the wall. Place your left
hand on the wall. Swing your
right leg back as far as possible.
Return leg to starting position.
Continue. After d while stand with
your right side to the wall and
lift your left leg backward, swing

A. You are q bit overweight. I
would guess about Z pounds. Most
ly you need abdominal and waist

the hips. You do not have to

smaller amounts, cut out snacks
and leave off desserts.

Back in the happier days In
Europe, New Years eve was. by
far, q bigger celebration than
Christmas. I recall q couple Of
such occasions in Berlin back in
the twenties when the fetes ranged
from small gatherings, reveling in
in the traditional carp in beer, to
noisy "galas" in the big hotels and
clubs, complete with serpentine,
confetti, ballons and dance bands.
Christmas. on the other hand, was
usually quiet affair, principally
for the children. and full of church
bells and church going.
In Czechoslovakia, roast pig was
the piece de resistance for New
Years. In Germany. along with
the carp, you would get herring
salad, and a hot punch.
