The New Movie Magazine (Dec 1929-May 1930)

The New Movie Magazine First Aids to Beauty (Continued from page 102) these days are sensibly vain about their children and, with sunbaths, codliver oil and correct clothing try to prevent the future embarrassment of unattractive legs. However, if your legs aren't as straight as you might wish them, or, for that matter, if they are too fat or too thin, you have only one recourse— and that is to make them as inconspicuous as possible. The new longer skirts are a help and dark stockings and shoes should be given preference. AS for freckles, which really aren't the curse that some women imagine them to be, there are plenty of lotions on the market that will bleach them out without injuring the skin. Freckles are as natural to some skins as a wave is to some hair. It is a mistake to try to hide them under heavy rouge and powder. They have a way of fighting down all opposition. The freckle-faced girl may bleach her freckles but she should, under all conditions, wear a rather light make-up. And instead of regarding them as a tragedy she should look upon them as rather an asset, because on most faces they are really cute. Only very vain women are worried about the size of their hands and feet. The small hand and foot are looked upon as a little out-of-date, like the extremely small waist. Most women sensibly realize that a large, wellshaped hand, kept white and smooth and carefully manicured, is much prettier than a small and often characterless hand. As for feet, the modern girl, thanks to her selection of attractive, well-built shoes, is seldom bothered with foot troubles. If she is, she will not confess it because she realizes that it is her own fault. WOMEN who worry over figure defects should remember that these handicaps may be almost overcome by correct exercise and pror "**e. By learning to stand, walk rectly even the woman with a mediocre figure and bad legs may give a better impression than a prettier girl. As for our faces, we can surmount our difficulties by ignoring them and by refusing to be conscious of them. Elsa B., Wheeling, W. Va. Permanent waves do not injure the hair, if they are given by a reliable operator and by a correct method. If you are doubtful about how your hair will take the waye, why don't you ask for a test curl ? Have the operator cut off a small strand of your hair and use it for the test. Many shops do this as a matter of course, especially if the hair has some peculiarity that might need special treatment. I cannot tell whether or not your hair would take a successful wave, but you can learn very easily from the test. Mrs. H. Tucker, Sacramento, Calif. Many women, when they first go to work in an office, put on weight because they are unaccustomed to a sedentary life and because office workers, with their regular hour for luncheons, are inclined to eat a heavier meal than a housewife who usually will not stop to prepare food for herself. Why don't you try walking to work, since you are within easy distance? And limit your luncheon to a rather hearty salad and fruit. Lois, Ann Arbor, Mich. It is quite common for movie actresses to change the color of their hair. In fact, the girls are quite frank about it. If an actress thinks that she can improve the photographic quality of her face by becoming a blonde, she will do so. For non-professionals, hair coloring is entirely a matter of taste and discretion.
