Beauty Advice (Continued from page 6) I would advise you to use the almond meal treatment on your face if the skin there is scaly looking or if you were much exposed to sun and wind during the summer. Its faintly pebbly texture livens the skin and wears away dead tissues. It won't cure blackheads, however. For that purpose, you need a medicated grainy cleanser or a special paste. If tiny lines and wrinkles have appeared over the summer months as a result of squinting at ships out at sea or something, use that tissue cream religiously. Put a lot of it on the spots where the wrinkles are and iron over the ugly things with your thumb — always upward and outward, remember. Leave a thin film of it on overnight whether you have incipient wrinkles or not. Wrinkly folks could well use, too, a mask once a week or every ten days — there's a fairly reasonable one available now, as I told you last month. Enlist the aid of your sister or a handy girl friend, too, to give your sunburned back the cream and almond meal treatment. You'll be glad that you took the trouble when you climb into that new evening gown. AND, of course, your hair should be given the same systematic treatment as your skin for a month or six weeks after the summer carelessness. I don't mean that you should wash it overmuch, but do brush it every day and give it an herbal or tonic shampoo alternately with regular shampoos. And if you're sick and tired of the way it looks and are just dying for some new way to wear it, I can think of no better stunt than to indulge in those little feather curls around the ears or at the forehead the way the movie stars do. Do you know how to make them? It won't do, you know, just to gather up the short ends exactly as they are and try to curl them. You'll get a very weird assortment of different length wisps if you do that. Part the hair in a shallow half moon just above your ears and comb that strand of hair flat down against your cheek. Decide how long you want the little curls to be. Cut the hair neatly, with the lower end a little longer than the top. Allow about threequarters of an inch to be taken up when you curl the hair. Then wet the hair with waveset lotion and paste the curl in a small circle against your skin. Pin it securely with invisibles. For the first few days, it may be a bit unmanageable because the ends will be stubby. But make it behave with an extra dose of the lotion and then, in a day or two, it will be easy to arrange. Let the curl dry thoroughly — don't get fidgety to "see how it looks." It's absolutely essential to let the waveset lotion dry. These little curls are becoming to almost every type. They permit you to pull the rest of your hair back rather severely, if you want to, and to maintain that sleek line which is so fash ionable. They look pretty with hats, too. Here's a stunt I want to tell longhaired girls about. It concerns the hairand-hat problem. You know how those cute shallow-crowned bonnets just won't stay on sometimes? Even when you can get them big enough, they pop up over one's hair at the back. And nothing makes a girl feel so silly as to go walking along the street with her hat sitting up on top of her head. Well, she doesn't need to feel silly. Get some fine, round silk elastic. Sew it to the under-brim or inside of the hat at a point just behind the ears. Have it snug enough so that it will loop under the coil of your hair. It works beautifully— and will never show. NOW here's a thing I want to impress on all of you for the new season. Try to be two people! I don't mean that you shouldn't "be yourself" always and everywhere. But I do mean that you should try to develop the "different" side to your nature. If you're naturally a serious person, on occasions be very gay. And if you're a life-of-theparty sort of person, just try once in a while being very quiet and demure. You see, most of us have some sort of job or other which keeps us busy and sedate and sensible from nine to five. For the rest of our waking hours, it's most refreshing to ourselves and most charming to other people — particularly men — to be another sort of girl. And one of the best aids in changing our personalities is to change our clothes and our make-up. And this applies just as much to practical married ladies of forty or so who have given up the habit of being "fixy" and particular about their looks. At the turning point of the day, when you get home from work or just after your work in the house is finished, take "time out for a bath or at least a complete cleansing of the face and re-doing of the hair. Put on all clean clothes and a fresh dress — even if it's only another house-dress or house pajamas. Fuss over your make-up just as if you were going out to a party. By the way, it's a great help to keep a big, powerful electric light bulb handy in your dresser to put into the light socket before you make-up. Naturally you don't want to burn a whole lot of electricity all the time, but you do need a strong light to make up under. Don't just flap your powder puff at vour nose and dab on a bit of rouge and lipstick. Pat the powder on heavily and use a different shade for evening wear, even if you're not going any place. (Have you seen the new combination box a certain company is putting out ? It contains day and evening powder in the same odor and there are combination boxes for blondes, brunettes and redheads.) Brush off the excess powder with a baby's camel's hair brush or a clean puff. Blend your rouge carefully. Use a brighter lipstick and 104
