BEAUTY ROUNDUP
Old and New Facts
About Cosmetics

Pioneer women are popular
heroines Of books. musicals.
and movies. Such a heroine
turks in the pages of cosmetic
history. This year marks the
50th anniversary of the famous
Harriet Hubbard Aver cos
metics.
Mrs. Aver started out giving
recipes via a newspaper column
in the New York World for
creams, lotions, makeup and
hair beauty at a time when
do 1t yourself" wasn't even a
popular slogan. Later when her
formulas were packaged women
didn't have to cook 'em up"
any longer. Yet Mrs. Aver still
insisted that certain formulas
be mixed by hand. The beauti-
flying as well as the cleansing
"Luxuria Cream" is still made
this way.
It's hard for women today
to realize that there was a time
when ready-to-use cosmetics
were virtually unknown. Har-
riet Hubbard Aver maintained
then. and would do the same
today, that it is every woman's
privilege tnay. her duty to
improve her appearance cpar-
ticularly after she is 30'D and
to reiterate that There is no

comes to the rescue with a
new ingredient called Flavone
in her Silk-tone liquid rouge.
The beauty expert says the
important thing is not that
rouge, lipstick and polish
should match exactly, but
that they should blend. There
are four beautiful shades
from which to choose: Pink
Tone. Coral-Tone. Rose Tone.
and Red Tone. Here's q make

get the word on beauty

there's the fact that she must

Mccain is the well-known

which type Of earrings she

faces. Since the need for
upward lines Is almost uni

Is good tor about every face.
The only exception to this
is the face with a prominent

for this type because they
soften the jaw.

Int upon her revolutionary
idea Of suspending the ear
rings, not from the lobe but
from the curve Of the ear
above the lobe. and holding
the earring In place with a
little wire behind the ear.
Plastic Surgery
This type earring has
proven very popular because
1t is so comfortable. and
women who could not keep
these ornaments on because
Of the shape or size of their
ear lobes. can now do so.
/ had never thought be-
fore that plastic surgery and
earrings have anything in
common but can see how
this is true. This compare
lively new type of earring
starts higher on the face
since it is suspended from the
curve Of the ear rather than
the lobe This does away with
the danger Of having ear
rings aging because they em-
phasize the jaw and chin
line. These actually give the
face a lift.
All of our accessories: ear
rings. necklaces, bracelets,
bags and pins should be
chosen carefully. not only to
match our costumes but to
latter our face and figure.
