Luckily notions about beauty differ. And, luckily, art can assist nature.

Pictured here are the eyes of Alve different film stars-all world-famous actresses, though you might not be able to spot at a glance who owns which eyes.

Miriam Hoplins has oval-shapert eye with very large rises. The fine brows come down rather low by the nose and then curve,

Eyes and rychroies are all different, but lashes are all much the unc-long, thick and with a sweeping upicaril curl.

Natural lashes, however long and curling, simply cannot compete with those of the stars you see on the screen. It is necessary to have a certain amount of exaggeration in the cinema and so as a rule false eyelashes attached to narrow strips of gut are sent to the studios to beautify the heroines of each pic ture. I hope I've not destroyed too many illusions by mentioning this.

N excessive growth of superfluous hair may be due to some medical disorder. In some cases a doctor may be able to prescribe suita treatment.. Without medical advice it is difficult to check the growth. There is a simple bleach which will lighten the hairs and so make them less apparent.

To make small eyes look larger. the false lashes should be cut long in the middle and shorter at the sides.

"I got a bottle and took it according to directions Results were apparent the first week, and in only ten weeks I was down to normal after losing

Hundreds of women who re- duced with BonKora had the

same experience.

You can have a similar

experience and get

rid of your fat-just as casily and quickly as they have.

The Bankora treatment requires you to cut down on very faltening, foods, but allows you to eat satisfying meals, of foods you like, while it is taking off your fat the quickest way,

Don't hesitate because other, reducing methods have failed. Users have said that BonKor took off 20, 30, 50 pounds after they had tried other ways in vahu. Bonkera is safe too. Contains to thyroid extract dangerous drugs.
