Eye Shadow
I have discovered some new and inexpensive cosmetic serrets, writes a correspondent. The first is at entirely new make-up for eyes. It is a cream mascara that you can use as both eyelash cosmetic and eye-shadow. You can get it in 9 three colours, dark blue, copper
beech, or black, and you can have 14 quite a lot of fun by making your intriguing, eyes appear most especially by electric light.
When you have finished the rest of your make-up lightly zap the tip of your finger in the cream and then smear very gently on your eyelids, shading off to the top corner of your eye just under your eyebrows. See that both your eyes are shaded evenly and then rub the eyelash brush into the cream 11 and brush on your upper eye- 11lashes, being careful to brush up- wards. If you are accustomed to using water eyelash cosmetic, ap- ply this in the ordinary way and then finish off with this new cream 9 variety, as it will make the lashes 10 shiny and also prevent them from getting brittle. If your eyebrows need darkening, they can also be brushed in this way.
