NATURAL CHARM

TRY TO RETAIN IT, HEAVY MAKE-UP NOT ADVISABLE ■ If you are tiny and fair and look |younger than you are you probably 1 want to look older than you are and ’ rather sophisticated. You don’t realise that there are hundreds of older and 1 more worldly women who would give i anything to have- your air of youth and I gaiety. I If you have that priceless gift of I youth, don't scorn it but make the most , of it. i Don't spoil your loveliness by makI ing-up in a way that docs not suit I your type. If you see someone looking tremeni dously sophisticated and exotic on the | oilier side of the room, don't bother ■ about her. She could never achieve I your fresh, young loveliness.

I with a little mist-blue shadow, will i malte those blue eyes look starry. For powder choose a pale liquid ' foundation in a delicate pearly tlesh I tone, with a slightly warmer powder ; over it. There's a delicious creamy liquid ’colour, or a thicker cream-like tinted vanishing cream if you prefer it. I Peaches and cream or peach are good ; shades in powder. Don't forget your throat and shoulders when you make up for a dance. You can match your powder shade with a flesh-tinted liquid powder that will give your skin a petal .smoothness For that last moment before you slm into your dance frock here are two ' little beauty tricks. A touch of oil or cream on your lips to make them shiny Mmd alluring, and a soft c! ud of lajuid ! lustre restorer to make your J-.a:r i I'leriHi like a golden severe;;;;}
