SHE'LL. LOVE A PAIR FROM
OUR HOLIDAY ASSORTMENT
$2.00 lo $4.98
Soft. Supple Capeskins, and Washable Cottons
— Nylons, Too. A Perfect Gift — All Colors.
This teen-age girl knows how to look pretty under the lights of holiday parties. Wrapped in a washable ,
short robe and with her hair bound back, she starts her make-up with a thin lotion-type base in a shade
that matches her skin as exactly as possible (above left). She works with enough to make it easy to
get a smooth all-over finish but has tissues handy for blotting off excess. Her powder is a shade lighter
and slightlv pinker than for daytime so that her skin shows up better under artificial lighting. She
gives a mat finish and avoids streaks by evenly brushing off excess powder with a soft brush made
lor this purpose (above center). Beautifully dressed in a gown designed for teen-agers, she is off to a
jiarty. Notice the effective simplicity of her accessories (above right).
