And although a few tears may be effective and rather romantic, swollen eyelids, a red nose, bedraggled make-up, and all the post-cry symptoms are definitely NOT at all attractive. So if your emotions temporarily get the better of you, hit back quickly with these First Aid measures————

1 Get three pads of cotton-wool, two for your oyes, one for your

forehead.

2 Fill a basin full of warm water and dip your face in it for a

Pat it dry and massage in skin food or cleansing cream.

Boak the cotton wool pads in skin tonic or witch hazel (or cold water), put them on your eyes and forehead, and go and ite down for 15 minutes, thinking of absolutely nothing.

5 When you get up, wipe off the skin food, splash your face with

cold water or skin tonic.

Give your hair a thorough brush from the roots upwarda (very soothing this).

7 Give your none a good blow and start making up, with an accent on the eyes, a smear of grease or eyeshadow on the lids, and a little rouge if you are pale now.

8 Finally, squeeze the juice of a lemon in a glass of water and drink it slowly to get rid of that sick feeling that sometimes results from a good cry, and there you are, ready to face the whole world again..
