OUR MAKE-UP COMPETITION

Is the enthusiastic response
to this novel competition. Up- to-date 73 ladies have entered the contest and the result seems to indicate that we have not only
· provided Hong Kong ladies with a new diversion bat- have. given a new idea to our local photographers.
To be able to appreciate this idea you must know that even the special colour sensitive films do not reproduce natural colours in their true tone value in black and white photography. There- fore the photographer has to do a great deal of retouching work before he can submit the picture for your approval. In consequence. through the touching the photograph loses a lot of its naturalness. On the other hand a proper panchroms- tic make-up. applied before the sitting, eliminates the necessity of retouching and preserves the natural appearance of the fea tures.
Take a look at the pictures on this page. Don't get the false impression that all these ladies are beautified only by the make-up artist. On the con-- trary! They are all good look- ing young women, only their pictures without make-up have not been retouched by the photo- grapher. For that matter. neither were the other pictures retouched, only the subjects were made up with the special..

Qualified Artiste
In order that the public may know the qualifications of the make-up artist, connected with our competition we are append- ing an extract from a letter received from Max Factor and Co., Hollywood:
"With Miss Edith da Rocha - in charge of the Department Ton are bound to have a real Max Factor Department as we conduct in this country. She received the proper training. not only in make-up applica- tion, but in merchandising
the line and rendering the same complete service which Studion in Hollywood render the #nction picture players and the Max Factor clientels as a whole
"As
you know Miss da Rocha is also well prepared to give professional make-ups."

YOU CAN MAKE BEAUTY A HABIT
IT'S just as simple, you see, to
the
get used to the right habits as wrong onest. And do you know what they weremplish for you? They increase your lovali- ness just about one hundred per cent! Let's sum them up and then stick to themi

this habit of daintiness. It should be extended to the care of your toilet articles. I don't believe girls understand how all-important. that particular habit is.
The make-up departments in every studio are as sanitary and imaculate as any hospital. They use the same kind of cabi nets for sterilizing combs, and powder pufs that hospitals use for sterilizing delicate surgical instruments. If they go to that trouble to protect the com plexions of their players, it unght to prove how very essen- til it is for all toilet accessories to be kept immaculately clean--- if you want them to be of help in creating beauty. An oily
brush will do far more damage to your hair than good. A soil-

ed powder puff is ample reason why complexions are marred with pimples and blackheads. I have seen women, whose gloves. and handkerchiefs were spot- less, use powder puffs that were a disgrace. And they wonder- ed why their powder didn't go` an' properly and their pores were exlarged!
The best way of taking care of toilet articles is to set a time. each week for cleaning them Otherwise, since we are all crea- tures of habit, you are apt to forget about it. A hàirbrush or nail-brush can be used to wash the comb in a good heavy lather and warm water. Then air both brush and comb, in the sun on a window ledge.
puffs
Powder and rouge should be scaped and rubbed
gently between the hands. These, too, should air in the sun. Fingernail fles ought to be scubbed with a stiff brush, orange sticks ought to be boiled in soapy water and manicure scissors ought to be boiled in plain water for five minutes. That is one of the easiest met- hods of preventing an infected finger!
