"Peaches and Cream"
The two hours' wait in the "Mall for those who attend the BoyaKCourts is always a tiring and boring experience. It is rather fatal, too, for one's "getup " and " make-up." So the new complexion has been evolved, and christened "peaches and cream," says a London exchange.' This ..new makeup is guaranteed to survivo that long wait and preserve the complexion fresh and "unsooted" from the, murky atmosphere of the -world-'s capital- for: the world's most brilliant function. Girls must not look made-up, for the Queen intensely dislikes all obviously artificial aids to beauty, especially for young girls. She also forbids' "making-up" or "repairing ravages" once the debutante enters the palace, hence the necessity for the new face treatment in the home. The day before the'drawingroom most debutantes have a face treatment, and before leaving for the palace tho face is dusted with a stringent powder instead of a cream, aud then a lotion is applied which, will hold the powder. Mandarin-red .lipstick gives tho finishing touch. Young girls are having pale pink nails', and many matrons dye. theirs a brilliant scarlet. For girls. who' have too ' much colour, pale green powder is used.
