to beautifying your poor back as you do to making up your face? Unless you're one of the notable exceptions, you don't. Yet bare back beauty is easy if you're prepared to exert a little patience, opend a little

time.

The back in the photograph in lovely because it is neither too podgy nor too muscular, the shoulders are broad, the shoulder blades are well covered, the skin is smooth and satiny and it is a uniform tone all over. That's the ideal to make for. Try out these hints and see how you do.
