It is quite natural that your hair brush and comb collect grime more quickly during the summer months than during the winter months, and therefore need weekly shampoos. You go around without # head covering more frequently and the winds blow sand and dust into your hair. By brushing and combing each day (which I hope you do!) you take this accumulated dirt from your head, but you will not be able to do so unless your brush and comb is clean!
Face cloths are apt to be forgotten. One thinks just because face cloths are in water and lathered each day, when you wash your skin, that they automatically keep clean. Not so! Face cloths quickly collect dirt and because they are wet the greater part of the time, they are breeding grounds for microbes! Our skins would be better treated if we used a fresh cloth each time, or learned to use soft bristle complexion brushes which we kept sterilized.

And speaking about brushes. All your brushes need a weekly cleaning. Your bath brushes, your nail brushes, your complexion brush and your hair brush. Wash them in a basin of soapy water to which has been added teaspoonful of borax and a few drops of a strong germicide.

HOW ABOUT YOUR POWDER PUFFS?
To use a powder puff more than two days at home, or two days in weather, is
a compact during hot flirting with minor skin blemishes.
A powder puff not only applies fresh powder to your skin, but it also absorbs the secretions from your skin as your powder. And many girls use one side to wipe their faces off be- fore applying fresh powder, and the other side of the puff to powder Can't you see why it is necessary that you keep a stack of puffs on hand, and give them all a bath once a week?
To use in your vanity, those lit- tle cotton discs which you can buy in quantity for a dime, are the most sanitary for summer use. Each mor- ning you can discard the soiled puff and pop a clean one into your com- pact. And, if your day is to be an arduous one, you can easily tuck a few extras into your handbag wrapped in a piece of facial tissue.
The better make of puffs which cost only a few pennies more, stand up under many shampoos and dry out fluffy and new looking.
