Show A LITTLE ART I Th American Woman Mlht Display In "ilaklne Cp. Whether it is that the American so-siety so-siety woman, owing to her late hours, when she reaches a certain age needs i little artificial touch here and there to restore her fading bloora, or from whatever cause it may be, the fact unfortunately un-fortunately remains that she does use a little judicious make-up. Now, as this seems to be a necessity, why not use this make-up as her French sister does, who has it down to a fine point of perfection? For instance, the Par-Isienne Par-Isienne never would think of using the lame rouge 'or day and night, and she always applies it in the light for which It Is intended. If she is a brunette, she gets powder and rouge for a brunette, while if she is a blonde she buys blonde materials. The first phase of the performance Is to thoroughly wash the face with a little soap on a soft rag, in very warm water; then dry with a soft towel. Then If it is daytime day-time she goes to the brightest window and by aid of her hand glass applies this rouge, which is in a liquid state. The cheeks and jawbone are treated, thei the lips, for which a different rouge is always used, also a liquid, taking tak-ing care to make them appear darker on the inner edge. NavV the forehead Is treated to a powder, which is applied ap-plied and then rubbed off until none remains. A little of this powder is rubbed on the nose and around the mouth and promptly rubbed off. For the brows and eyelashes a pencil should never be used for the day. A brow brush and a tiny bar of India ink are all that are needed. The same routine is applied to the night makeup, make-up, the only difference being in the materials used, and these can always be bought of any good chemist. |
