HONGKONG GIRL

IS SYDNEY'S

LEADING MODEL

Winifred Raven, a Hongkong girl, daughter of Mr A. R. F. Raven, the architect, has become one of Sydney's most photographed girls and is described as the leading photographic model. Formerly on the staff of the Travel Bureau here, she took up modelling after evacuation to Australia last year. She is here pictured with Rubie Gibson, Sydney beauty expe't, who shows how false eyelashes are applied by a new process. The job takes only half an hour, and if care is taken of them the set will last three weeks. With deft move-

ments Miss Gibson, who learned how in selects each false lash, dips it in a solution

made from a secret formula, and

applies it individually

to each lash.

1.

Eyelashes are first washed with warm water to remove traces of dust and make-up. Then, with orange stick, the lashes are separated. 2. False lashes are tied into bundles and must be chosen carefully for texture and curve to suit each person. Solution for attaching them is shown in small round container. 3. Each lash is lifted with tweezers, dipped in the solution and held against the real lash. The solution dries in

a second. 4. Magnifying glass shows how false lashes are applied to each real fash. The false lashes do not come into contact with the cyclid. They are placed 1/8th of an inch away. 5. Eyelashes are trimmed to the desired length. 6. Miss Gibson uses a soft brush to remove pieces of hair from Miss Raven's' face after finished lashes have been clipped. 7. This photo shows the effect of the false lashes on Winifred Raven.
