Show Study of Facial Contour Can Aid Women's Natural Beauty A careful study of your facial contour, and skillful attention atten-tion to its attractive and unattractive features can immeasurably immeas-urably improve a woman's natural beauty. For instance, a fairly round face can be lengthened in ap- pearance by wearing . the hair close at the sides and high above the forehead. Women with round faces should avoid round spots of rouge, according to an article in the April issue of Good Housekeeping magazine. Kouge should start on the cheekbone cheek-bone below the eye center and shade off faintly to hairline. "If your face is round, avoid a round, pursed mouth," the article states in part. "Rouge lips to the very corners, making a wide, shallow shal-low bow. "A long eyebrow with a slight angle in it is becoming to a round face. Lengthen short eyebrows with pencil." When the forehead is narrow and the jaw prominent, a wide roll across the top of the head gives better balance. Rouge applied in a deep narrow triangle on the outer sides of the face minimizes the fullness of the face. The mouth should be wide, pleasantly curved and not too full. Eyebrow line should point straight out at, sides. A square face is minimized by a coiffure in which the hair is drawn up smoothly and massed high on one side. Rouge should be applied in a semi-circle on outer part of cheek. Blend oft lightly at edges; 1 . avoid harsh lines. Wide, well-curved well-curved lips are best for square face. Eyebrows should be arched in long smooth curves. Many hairdos are becoming to a heart-shaped face, even an up-do if the mass of hair is broken into curls. Rouge should be applied in a wide, shallow triangle high on the cheeks, above the point where the face begins to narrow. Lips should be full in the center but not. too wide or heavy. Eyebrows should' turn down in a curve or slight angle an-gle at outer corner of eye. When cheekbones are wide, jaw and forehead narrow, concealing bangs and a long, soft bob are nattering. Rouge should be spread in a circular area high on cheeks. Lips should be rouged evenly from center to corners. If the eyebrows are low and rather straight, they will give a horizontal effect desirable desir-able for this type of face. |
