Because of this style dilemma the cosmetic Arms have been forced to offer a wide choice of make-up colours. There are the rich, dark reds for lips and nails, with powder to blend nicely, and then there are the brilliant, clear reds, a russet shade or two and an occasional purplish lipstick. Each lipstick, of course, has its companions properly hued--face powder, rouge, nail polish, and eye make-up.

There they are for your selec- tion. The thing to do is to point up your day costumes with one set of make-up which lends d pretty accent to your complete grooming, and then select another set for your more formal clothes, or pasty clothes,

Brusin's Favourite Fruit

There is fun in making a pretty face these days. No artist had more colours to work with But I must caution you to apply all make-up artfully so that pretty face of yours will look natural to others even though it has requir- ed twenty minutes or ten to make it ravishingly beautiful!

that though sounds contrary to reason. But the brushing actually does help normalise the condition and it is a mistake to feel that oily hair will be made more olly by brush- ing.

Scalp conditions are frequently rubbing the scalp with a bit ог deceiving. You might think you have a very dry scalp when ac- tually you have an olly condition. For unless the entire length of the hair becomes oily the day after a shampoo one is inclined to think that one's scalp is too dry if the hair is being unmanageable and lacks a healthy lustre. But accord- ing to a leading scalp specialist the ends of the hair can be brittle and dry and the scalp itself too oily so this is how to judge..

If your hair becomes olly near the scalp three days to a week after a shampoo, it is excessively oily: Other indications are dry brittle ends, dandruff, temple hair. becoming sparse, and the colour of hair fading. Very, very olly scalps make the entire length of hair greasy looking a day or two after a shampoo,\"

What To Do About

Condition

When the hair is washed one should use another special clean- ser which clears the scalp of loo- sened cuticle before the liquid shampoo is applied.

If your scalp is excessively oily' you might try this routine: Every three weeks, or once a month, shampoo your hair. Between shampoos keep your head clean as suggested and your hair well brushed. In two months time the condition should be greatlyim- provéd.
