An extraordinary revelation of the extreme nature of the present day* West End beauty culture was made to the "Evening Standard" by a prominent ! beauty expert, who admits that scores of society women are at present underI to o "'y fr |Ce tattoo, whereby the cheeks I arc permanently bloomed at a cost of J£lo los, and the lips permanently red- } dencd for £lO. "It is an offshoot of the permanent 1 hair wave," she explains. "The tattoo marks do rot show, and the cheeks will be blooming even when they are withered, while the system, it is stated, is not injurious. "One great advantage is that it abolishes for all time the lipstick said powder. Women do not seem to mind the fact that the process is tcdiou3 j and' painful. Each cheek and lip is j punctured a few hundred times. ! "One girl refused to have the second I cheek done, on account of the pain. If • I know beauty-mad women, she will re!tum!" i . i j MRS CHILTON HONOURED. i The wives of the members of the pro- ! rsaooriol board at Canterbury College I s-.titertained Mrs Chilton yesterday I morning at a charming party, given at Urtllautynes.
