Every face needs its own recipe for choosing and using the gentle aids to looking lovelier. Have you found a make-up plan that satis fies you? For the girl with darkish-brown hair and fair skin, a delicately tinted liquid foundation with matching powder and soft rose or light red lipstick is good. The eye brows and lashes of most blondes usually need emphasizing. A definite brunette with dark hair, brown eyes and an olive skin looks better with a medium or heige-tone face make-up and vivid red lipstick. If the skin is oily, cake make-up would help to cut down shine. The pedestrian record reflected the 4th consecutive year of im provenments for motor vehicle acci dents iff 1954.
