Description:
Began publishing in 1915; mid-level fan magazine on par with Movie Classic and Screenland. Cost a twenty five cents an issue up until pricing pressure from New Movie (c. 1932) incited an across-the-board price decrease to 10 cents. Merged with Charm in 1941, which would later become Glamour magazine (1959). -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013.

When Eyes A re Close ^OnJSi^ Complexion at Ease Does your complexion wince under the appraising gaze? Does it fear the verdict — "make-up" — "coarse" — "muddy"? Or is it a complexion of confidence — one that delights in close inspection? It is the latter if you use Carmen! For Carmen gives the beauty, the youthful bloom, the satiny smoothness that craves scrutiny, knowing that the more critical the gaze, the more pronounced the praise. Carmen, the powder that stays on, is also Carmen the powder whose charming natural effect on the skin is never lessened under dampness or glaring light, is truly the face powder extraordinary, as a test will show.
