Beauty Hints for the Busy
Housewife
By JOSEPHINE HI DOLESTON
Although the average housewife is pretty busy throughout the day.
beauty treatments to preserve the skin and hair may be taken in such a
way as no tto interfere with the household tasks. That much being true.
there is no real reason why any woman should
blame housework for fdaing beauty. As a matter
of fact, the average housewife can hold her beauty
and charm more easily than the business woman.
After cleansing the skin in the morning and be
fore getting down to the real business of washing
dishes, bed making, sweeping and dusting, a liberal
coating of cream, either nourishing or cleansing
cream, should be patted lightly over the entire face
and throat. This keeps the skin free from dust. At
fhe same time the cream penetrates the pores and.
if they are enlargde. loosens the embedded impuri
ties so that a later cleansing will be more thorough,
if they are enlarged, loosens ‘he embedded impuri
tl- lodging in them and causing blackheads,
utcrauiijr Thls rnethod “ advisable at all times. In cold
rcrrwj weather when the heat is on the windows are mostly
nwOLtolUN closed, the intense heat causes the skin to appear
dry and lifeless, and in the warmer weather when
the windows are open, stray specks and dust come into the home and we
find it settling on our skins.
A water wave placed in the hair,
in the morning assures one of a
soft wave at the end of the day.
Moisten the hair and. if combs are
used, simply push It up and slip
one of the water wave combs into
each wave to hold it in place until
the hair is dry. If combs are not
necessary a few small pins will keep
the wave intact. A silk bandana
that is of the same general color
as one's housedress not only looks
attractive, but prevents dust from
settling on the dampened hair.
Then. too. the problem of keeping
the hands soft and white is eliml
cream. sip the hands nto the rub
nated by intelligent use of soft
gloves, nourishing cream and rubber

gloves. Massage a little nourishing
cream over the hands, then, putting
on the silk or cloth gloves over the
cream slip the hands into the rub
ber gloves and no amount of heat
or dust can harm the white texture
of the skm.
Even a certain amount of laundry
work will keep the hands white and
the nails more susceptible to a good
manicure than when water has been
avoided for fear of spoiling these
members. If gloves have not been
worn and the hands appear red aft
er being in too hot water, rinse them
in cold water and then apply a gen
erous amount of a good hand lotion
and you will be rewarded with hands
that are extremely soft and white.
I believe that the main reason
why so many women rebel against
housework is because it ruins the
hands. Such fears in the present
day are unnecessary.4 however, as
special home soaps and powders,
| compounded to improve the skin
rather than mar it are to be found
in every market.
When the beauty benefits of
housework are fully realized every
housewife should know that every
step toward making the home more
livable is a step toward the attain
ment of more beauty and loveliness.
