No matter what kind you use, be sure to blend your rouge gradually into the tones of your skin, so that it is impossible to tell just where it ends. Never apply dry rouge to a moist skin and, if in doubt, underdo rather than overdo the color. In the movies, and for theatrical purposes," rouge may "sink" a feature, but in everyday life it attracts the eye. Remember that. So match your natural coloring and keep to the subtle side. It's much more feminine and appealing to have a delicate, rosy blush than a harsh, hectic flush that couldn't be natural unless your temperature were over a hundred and decidedly unhealthy. Eyes are the most important feature in your face, yet they are often neglected when it comes to make-up. Not every one needs or should use eye-shadow. If your eyes are widely spaced, full, unusually slanting, if you wear glasses, and if you can apply the shadow so that it doesn't show, you may deepen and intensify the color of your eyes with an eye-shadow which matches them. If your eyes are dark-circled or shadowed, sunken, heavylidded, wrinkled or close together, don't wear eye-shadow, no matter how much you'd like to. It will make you look grotesque. Eye-brows should not contrast too strongly with your natural coloring. That makes them look artificial. But if you pencil them with thought as to matching the natural tones of your skin and hair they can become important accents to an expressive face. Mascara for your lashes does much to deepen and add expression to small or light colored eyes. Follow the same color rule here as you use in applying brow pencil. Brush the excess mascara from your lashes and keep the color within the scale of your own natural possibilities. In the daytime don't put on colors that nature would have better sense than to grow there. With evening make-up you can take more liberties. Make-up has no excuse in the world on any girl if it makes her look coarse or cheap or artificial. But, used with skill and restraint, it can do subtle and marvelous things to emphasize, enhance and almost remake the face of the girl who will take the time and make the effort to use it correctly. Now, go out in the sun and enjoy yourselves. But be as smart as the girls in Hollywood and take it gradually in the beginning. You'll look better and feel better, too. Moderation may not always be as exciting for the moment, but in the long run, it's ten times as much fun, and you don't miss anything while you're paying up for it, either. HOLLYWOOD'S BACHELOR GIRLS {Continued from page 46) have a lot in common, but we never get together. And I'll be blamed if I know why! "We have none of the camaraderie girls in practically every other walk of life have. There's none of the 'he sez to me' and T sez to him' confidences. I knew that Hedy and Gene Markey were married just when the public knew it. The girls knew that I was married only when it appeared in the papers. But as I scarcely knew it myself until then, that's not a fair example. JEAN ARTHUR is another girl I adore. We make, all sorts of plans to get together and never have, not once. I live next door to Janet Gaynor and we've never met. I've been trying to telephone Una Merkel since last Christmas to thank her for something, and I haven't done it. I don't know why. But I'm going to find out," said Floncy, that "research" look shining in her eyes, "I'm darn well going to find out why girls don't even have girl friends in Hollywood. And as for the boys—" She takes stock of the fact, does our Miss R., that girls in far-away-fromHollywood places gaze with glamorglazed eyes at Hollywood, a happy hunting ground, think they, where girls must have to dodge behind palm trees to escape Dan Cupid's quiver of arrows. The most glamorous men in the world are here — Clark Gable, Robert Taylor, Errol Flynn, Charles Boyer. What more does a gal want? But Floncy would remind you, what good do such as these do you? Feast for the eyes, famine for the heart, that's what you'd get from the likes of them. Married, all four of them. So it goes — scan the lists and weep. And so, as Florence intelligently points out, while the most glamorous men in the world are here and Hollywood is undoubtedly the most glamorous 'atmosphere' in the world — so what? If you're sitting in the Garden of the Moon and all the gods are there and pass you by, being previously "spoke for," where does that leave you? Mooning by yourself, doesn't it? "Let's get down to it," Florence said, "most girls don't want to marry actors anyway, even if they could. Not if they're right bright, they don't. But when you're in love you're not right bright, you know that very well, and that disposes of me! It's just like most actors not wanting to marry actresses. Wasn't it Brian Aherne (hold everything! Chalk up another bachelor on the board!) who said that he wouldn't say T do' to a contract, a make-up box and a permanent wave if he never said T do?' (My Mr. Wilcox started out in life with the same convictions, but poof to convictions, huh?). Girls feel ditto about actors. Too much grief in that arrangement, think we, while we are still thinking, too little stability, home life and peace of mind which are, presumably, the ends and aims of matrimony. Or am I being quaint? THAT leaves us," said Floncy," with directors and producers to fall in love with. Most of them are a bit too old for us 'kiddies.' And they're practically all married anyway. There's something very sporting about the b. g.'s of Hollywood, I've noticed. There's none of that 'how to take a husband away from his wife' look in their eyes, none that I've ever seen. Writers, now. I once had the notion that writers might be the solution. I gave this idea some serious consideration, then chucked it overboard. Maybe because I was raised with 'em and you never think of folks around the house as being exactly Gables. But one thing I've been sure of from the start is that the b. g.s' only hope of a successful marriage in Hollywood is marriage with someone in the profession. After you've been out here for a time, after you get sort of house-broken to seeing the Taylors and the Gables 68
