FOR EVERY MOOD
VARYING LIPSTICKS
"Lipstick in varying shades of red to,match every mood and mode is woman's newest; aid to beauty (writes Lady Alexandra Haig in the "Daily Mail"). I" a Bond street parlour the specialist tempted me with a neat box of six lipsticks in lacquer cases. She unscrewed the top of the red one and applied it with bold strokes to my lips. That is called Chariot, she said, and you must wear it when you are feeling gay, and with a scarlet frock. Then she unscrewed the leaf-green lacquer case. ' You must keep this f o> the evening to wear with delicate pastel-coloured frocks. It is . Prin: temps,' I was informed. Next camo Victoire in a sinister black case. This looks perfect with a black dress. "'When you want to look dashing just apply Coquette,' she said, displaying a flaming scarlet stick. "Then there is Viola to use with your blue dresses. You see there is a hint of violet in the rouge which will make the skin look white and the eyes shadowy. And now. the last one. You must use this with tweeds in the country. It is'such a natural shade that no'ono: will.think, you are made up.'"..: . :.
