BEAUTY AND HEALTH
To get .the best results out of home beauty treatment of any description one must obviously have a little knowledge about one's own skin. There 'are a great many people who. firmly believe that the human body is covered with seven skins. It is quite true that the skin does consist of seven layers, but for complexion purposes these can be divided into three main divisions. The top part of the skin consists of mil-" lions of scales, and what. most women fail to realise is that these scales are continually being rubbed off and then renewed by the cells from the layer below, which is the true skin. It is that which lis the most important part of one's complexion. It is unfair to expect even the best cosmetics to work wonders on a complexion that suffers from bad circulation. Women are apt to forget that the skin, like every other part of the body, depends f/for its nourishment on the air yciu breathe, the exercise you take and ' the food you eat. Therefore, the first step in every beauty treatment, is an. adequate amount of fresh air, exercise and a wellbalanced diet.
