Keep Those Elegant Hands

A nightly cold creaming of their face may be all very well, but they simply connot find time to look after their hands properly.

Well, any beauty routine la largely a matter of habit, and surely few habits can give you more satisfying results!

So why not begin the habit of more care of your taking a le handa.

WHAT you are going to da depends WY of course upon the time you really can spend every day your hands. Five minutes will do quite a lot of good, ten will work wonders, while even ten seconds will be better than nothing if you spend It flicking a drop of almond oil over your fingers and into the nalis just before you go to bed.

However, your hands are worth more consideration than this, and I suggest that you buy a concentrated, emollient hand cream and keep it near your wash basin. Every me you wash rub a scrap of it over your Angers to keep them soft and white and smooth. At night massage the cream well into the hands after you have finished.

Of course, there are hand-packs and whitening lalons but they are for special occasions and we are now discussing "routhw."

Your nails also need daily atien- tion whether you use polish or not.

If your nails are brittle then be Aure to use a strengthening prepara- tion which will encourage them to are grow strong and hard. There several to be had which will work wonders in a fortnight or 50..

IF your nails are healthy, however

all you need is cuticle cream which will keep the skin around the nail smooth and even and will dis- courage its undue growth. A cuticle oll is an excellent cuticle remover if you use it when you have a mani- cure. It leaves the nail free of all the small flakes of skin which are apt to mar its smoothness instead of old-fashioned drying the skin
