THE GIRL WITH

A RECIPE

FOR GORGEOUS GOOD LOOKS

THE CHINA MAIL FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1960.

WOMANSENSE

PICTURE BY JOHN ADRIAAN,

Seeking a recipe for gorgeous good looks, I talked

"Never soap on my tace, not much water, lots of cleansing cream and pure lanolin last thing at night-that's my routine," she told me. **My only skin lotion is my personal mixture of orange flower water, rose water, witch- hazel, and a little surgical spirit. I don't know what i dock, but it works." It certainly does but then, with her looks, it had a flying start.
