ON MAKING UP

ItCUND AND OVAL FACES. If you possess a round or broad face, you will find that if you put your rouge fairly high on the cheek-bones and inward toward the nose (keeping the rouge away from the cheeks), it will help to lengthen your face. For a face that is included in squareness, where the lower features are wide and the cheek-bones high, start lightly at the cheek-bone, rouging more heavily backward toward the ear, and downward in a curve. The lucky possessor of the oval face should put her rouge cn by pressing heavily on the cheekbone, applying the rouge lightly in a half-moon toward the outer corner of the eye. Rub downward on the cheeks and upward toward the temples, the colour should always be the deepest in the centre. When applying rouge to the long face, the most pronounced colour is always applied to the cheeks, spread in a circle from the cheek-bone toward the ear with the colour under the cheek-bones. If cheek-bones are prominent, as is usual in faces of this type, apply rouge lower down. The

golden rule to remember when using rouge is to see that it is carefully blended at the edges, sharp line must be avoided if you would preserve a natural appearance. For the evening, cr if one is making up specially carefully, a touch of rouge on the ear lobes (if your method of hairdressing leaves these exposed) tends to shorten a long face and also has rather a charming effect.
