Audrey Hepburn's make-up gets final touch from Dick Smith on the set of "Mayerling." A TV make-up expert says, "Every girl can look prettier.'* Here, he gives some special tips. By HARRIET SEGMAN Dick Smith, head of NBC-TV's make-up department, checks Claire Bloom's make-up between scenes of the production of "Caesar and Cleopatra." Below, Smith starts to "create" the 80-year old Queen Victoria. Corner: the result. For readers of TV Radio Mirror, Dick Smith, head of make-up for NBC-TV, adapts his artwork to everyday good looks. He says: • For a good make-up job, you need a thoroughly clean face, enough time and work space, and light at both sides of mirror, or at top and bottom. • Choose make-up foundation color-mated to your skin, and use sparingly. A base much pinker or brighter than you gives all-over ruddiness rather than a pretty peaches-and-cream background for eyes and lips. • Select rouge in palest pink or coral and blend from cheekbone toward ears, not nose. Dilute cream rouge in palm of hand with cream make-up base before applying. • Over cake make-up, use cake rouge. Dilute by dipping puff into powder before picking up rouge. Too much rouge on cake make-up can be toned down with more cake make-up. • To conceal under-eye circles, use opaque make-up designed especially for this purpose. • Face powder should set make-up, not add color. Use a very pale, fine, loose powder, lighter than base, or almost colorless. Dust on generously, then remove excess. • Draw line along upper lid with eyeliner and blend upward to simulate the shadow of thick lashes. Gray pencil or liner is good if eyes are too light for black. • Establish brow shape and color with light brown pencil. Go over with medium or dark brown for depth of color. • Blend eye shadow with a little cream base before applying. • Light lipstick shades are most flattering. Lower lip should be at least as full as upper. Extend upper lip all the way to corners, to be equal to or a little wider than lower lip. To avoid lipstick running, stretch skin smooth as you apply color, blot excess, and press powder over edges to keep it from running into crevices. For lasting finish, powder lightly all over and allow to set for a minute, then wet lips. 56
