FROM BEAUTY’S PARLOUB

Here is some news for you, hot from the most fashionable beauty salons.

The first item concerns a really new powder which possesses the most romantic name oi "peach tan." This is singularly apt, as it does just describle the lovely shade oi a peach touched by the warm glow oi evening sunshine. In- cidentally, this shade is most be- coming to brunettes. ,

The powder itself is the result of

a g.eat deal oi research work, which has produced a wonderfully fine powder. sifted and re-sifted through the finest silk to ensure its own fineness It has the most subtle and delicious perfume. specially designed so that it will not in any way clash one's own special brand. There is nothing sticky about this powder. and it has a real lasting power, owing to the "ct that it does not cake when we become somewhat over- heated- Now ior fashions This concerns our nails (long- sufiering things nails , these days!) Cream polishes have made their bow in public, and it seems as if they are to have _a great welcome. The opalesoent effect to be seen so often nowadays ia obtained by giving the nails first a coat oi an almost pearlshaded polish, followed by another in one of the three most fashionable shades. which are pale cream,‘ oyclaman cream, and Chinese red cream. The effect of the first coat is such that it tones down the briiliancy of the second shade and gives it a lovely opalescent. look which is most attractive.
