MAKE-UP HINTS

MAX FACTOR

Everyone using Rouge has the tendency to apply too much. Pat the rouge on with a puff or small plece of don; don't rub. Start at the high point of the cheek and follow the natural curve of the cheekbone toward the nose.

Use your fingers to blend the colour into the full parts of the check. This also softens the edges of the colour pattern and gives it a natural blush appearance. The colour should also extend upwards toward the eye to eliminate the prominent white space between the lower eye-lid and the cheekbone. Practice Just this procedure with Max Factor's Rouge in colour. harmony like 96% of screen Hollywood Stars.
