Eys-de's - Give your eyes ex-
preston by accenting them. but
when applying eye makeup, be
particularly careful to avoid that
made-up look. After your daily
beauty ritual, always check excess
powder on lashes and brows. This
can easily be accomplished with q
dry mascara brush. A wee bit Of
cream hair oil gives = nice silky
gloss to brows and lashes.
Beauty on duty; A neat trick Is
10 draw your eye pencil across the
lid, at the roots Of your lashes,
extending an upward stroke at the
outer corner Of your eye. Lashes
appear thicker and darker. Apply
mascara to upper lashes only, max
ing sure all lashes are separated.
When plucking brows, follow the
natural curve. Avoid plucking a.
bove the curve, or you'll ruin the
natural line. II you wish to darken
your brows. make little hair-like
strokes, rather than long, heavy
artificial line. A curl lash apple

makes with lovely lashes, and has
q tendency to make lashes appear
longer. Another good tip is to ap-
ply eye lotion which relieves eye
strain and gives your eyes a fresh
twinkle. Balls OF cotton, soaked
with refrigerated witch hazel and
applied to closed eyelids, give you
Q nice refreshed feeling, too.
