LONG LASHES.
Eyeblack, says an authority, is not needed on deepset eyes, but it gives to prominent eyes the luminosity they may lack. And the best eyeblack can be made at home and costs nothing. Pass a saucer backward and forward over the flame of a candle until you have a good smoky patch Then—when the candleblack is" cool—mix it into a paste with a spot, of olive oil. Smooth this very lightly on the upper lids with your forefinger, and on your eyebrows if they are very light. Then anoint your eyelashes. The olive oil will not only make your lashes look long and silky, but will make them grow.
