SKELTON "TEXAS (ARMVAL" JOHNNY MACK BROWN 'in- T • "LAW OF THE PANHANDLE" Dept. MD _ eckb Monday Monday "SATURDAY'S HERO" Men's Faces Give Hot Tip to Women Coeds, if you want that "skin you love to touch," ask your date how he does it. Believe it or not, the male takes better care of his facial complexion than does the fair sex. This little-known fact was the unexpected outcome:of an inter view with beauty specialist Idah Gustaf son in a downtown drugstore. She is there this week to give tips on beauty care. Said Miss Gustafson, "I admire the way men groom because they do a thorough job of cleansing. "My advice to women," she continued," is, - let's take a tip from the men and really clean our skin!" Shaving -.otion • The secret of your date's lovely complexion is that he shaves. Shaving does more than just re•- move whiskers. It removes scaly, dead skin, and leaves in its place a smooth, tlansparent layer of new skin. On women, Miss Gui tafson said, the dead skin is al lowed to accumulate. After your date finishes shav ing, he applies shaving lotion. Lotion, Miss Gustafson says, ab sorbs soil . from the pores of the skin and reduces them to their normal size. "On the "o ther hand, women don't know how to wash their faces. What they do, the spe cialist said, is to put new make up on without effectively remov ing the old. Just soap and water is not enough. When you clean out a tub, she said, you don't use soap , and water, you use scouring powder. The same prin ciple applies to removing -o 1 d make-up. Natural Beauty However, all is not•lost. Women have a chance. First apply a cleansing-cream, Miss Gustafson advices. Apply the cream to the skin in upward and outward strokes. Then remove grime and cream with a tissue and apply a skin freshener. Aft e r this, dab on a special paste-like cleansing preparation. When this is done, let it dry and remove with a dry wash cloth. Do this for seven days and you will have a complexion almost as fair as that of the well-groomed college lad. "Men," Miss Gustafson said, "don't like girls who wear a mask. Make-up should enhance the , natural beauty of the skin. There is no substitute for good skin." - .So, coeds, take a tip from your male friends, and strive for that peaches-and-cream- complexion.
