Going on Honeymoon?
Then pack a bride's Beauty box in your trousseaux says Jane Gordon
I
TT is a pity that beauty parlours do not follow the dress. makers' example and provide brides with a beauty- .box trousseau. The most flattering outfit for a honeymoon face is just as important to most girls as a trousseau.
These trousseau beauty boxes should be divided into three sectiona. The first giving day cosmetics, the second giving skin foods, tonics and lotions, and the third giving night cosmetics and a little book to describe the best way to apply the various contents.
Thus, there is no reason why the necessary skin food should be applied the last thing at night. It does just as mueli good If It is applied before you have your bath, as the steam from the bilh helps the skin food to absorb.
If you arrange to apply regular beauty treatments at the same time as you take your dally bath, then you can afford to do away with the un- attractively greasy face at night.
Here is a practical beauty routine for various types of honeymoon faces:
DRY, SENSITIVE SKIN
BEFORE you have your bath take off all make up with
cleaning cream. Wipe this off with tissues.
Sponge the face thoroughly with warm water. Pat in skin food for dry skins, or turtle oll skin food. If there are signs of wrinkles and lines pat green turtle oll around the eyes over the Bnes. Leave on while in the bath. Wipe off thoroughly afterwards.
Last thing at night clean agiln with cleansing cream. Sponge thoroughly with luke-warm water. Pat in a small quantity of complexion balm. Dust over very lightly with fine powder on á Swansdown pust.
H I the lips look unattractively pude apply very small quantity natural
lipstick.
Give the eyebrows and eyelashes a good brushing with an eyelash brush, and the tiniest spot of colourless eyelash grower will give both the eyebrows and eyelastics a sheen and at the same time help them to grow.
Next morning sponge the face with cool water only. Make up with a light foundation cream and use the most becoming shade of powder, rouge and lipstick, and be careful that this is not too vivid or the contrast between your made-up and unmade-up face will be unpleasantly obvious to your husband.
GREASY COMPLEXION
WASH your face with mild complexion soap and plenty of warm water and apply a skin food for greasy skins and wipe off thoroughly before you have your bath.
Twice a week instead of applying the skin food apply a face prek. After the bath apply skin fonie freely. Leave on for a few minutes and then splash off with plenty of cold water.
At night before you go to bed take off the make-up with cleansing milk or there is a lotion that is specially good for this purpose. Rinse with plenty of cool water and pat in one of the special lotions of the calamine type. These correct the over-oily condition of the skin and at the same time leave a powdery surface, Wipe off the surplus powder and your complexion will have an attractively matt surface.
If necessary apply a little natural lipstick and brush the eyebrows and eyelashes with colourless eyelash grower.
In the morning clean the face with the cleansing lotion and apply either
a liquid powder foundation or foundation for greasy complexions.
BRUSH the hair thoroughly last thing at night and re- member that setting lotion can be applied and the hair done up in curlers, combs and nets before you have your bath
because the steam helps to set the hair.
