BEAUTY SECRETS
Your Winter Make-up":: Choosing The
Right Creams:: Bronze And Coral
IT is a wise woman who really
knows her own complexion. Most of us put things on our faces because we are assured that they are good and pure, and then wo are apt to be disappointed because, Falthough they are pure, they may not be good for our particular re- quirements,
No two complexions are exactly alike, but generally speaking onu can divide them into two categories; One is inclined to be slightly dry, and the other alightly oily.
THE brunette with the olive com-
plexion needs not only entirely different make-up, powder, rouge, lipstick, and so on, but also differ ent cold cretin, face lotions, and toilet waters from the blonde whose skin is a little over-dry.

Brunettes are often inclined to suffer from over-large pores. There fore their complexions need stimu lating with plenty of cold water and astringents-Distilled

During the winter months when tiny blood vessels often become prominent and there is a general redness of the skin, a coffee spoon ful of camphor in the water is valuable.
After-Washing
ALL brunettes should include in
their cosmétics some sort of astringent, and there are any num ber of good astringent lotions on the market. They are usually milky-white, liquida, and should be used after washing the face.
In no circumstances, should milk be used, instead of water for wash ing the face. It may have a soothing effect to start with, but if it is not thoroughly washed away with water it is blure for germs and dirt...
· In buying a cold cream, if you have a dark complexion you should be careful to choose a light cream.
Face Powders
THE powder, rouge, and lipstick
used by the brunette, are, of course, entirely different in colour and consistency from those used by the blonde...

On the whole, vanishing cream and face powder are better for the day time, and the liquid powder foundation is better for the even- There are two ways for the ing. You must be very careful, brunette to make up... One is with however, to take it off with cold a base o vanishing cream dusted cream and wash your face thorough- over with rather a heavy powderly when you come in at night. and the other is a base of liquid powder. When vanishing cream and ordinary powder are used the face powder must be of a rather heavy description.
The rouge should be the colour of geraniums, or else coral. If you choose a coral, you can find a lip- stick in exactly the same shade.

As the eye falls on the rich profusion of delicate tones and delightful colour harmonies, as the fingers finger in fascination over their seductive softness and beauty of texture, these new season Viyella fabrics make an appeal not to be resisted. Yet. with all its beauty, Viyella is essentially durable-proof against long wear, against constant washing, against sun and perspiration, and will never shrink.
