BEAUTY IS THE QUEST OF EVERY AGE
Nothing is more comprehensive than modern beauty treatment. Experts are not satisfied with the present-day resources 'only ; they delve into the past as well for old recipes and complexion secrets. Queen Elizabeth used a cream made from fresh cowslips that bleaclied the skin and had a tonic effect upon it This can be bought to-day , in one London salon, while another specialist has an almond latlier that was first concocted for the Empress Elizabeth of Austriq to keep her hands smooth and white during cold weather. It replaces soap and neutralises the effect of hard water. Every country, too, seems to contribute is quota of beauty notions, Amber make-up is fashionabl© this season, to go with the warm colours and materials designed' for the winter, and from China tliere comes a complete make-up box filled with foundation cream, rouge, lipstick, powder, nail varnish, mascara, and eye skadow, all in harmonising tones of amber. "Smoky" nail varnishes are the present vogue, and rejolces in such attrac-
tive names as Light Rust, Robin Red, and Old Rose, while in scents there is an equally wide range, one idea being to buy a set of six small , perfume bottles fitted on.to a stand, with a card tehing you which scent to use for which occasion.
