HINTS AND HELPS

You will find it easiest to shave arms, legs and under arms with a Schick Injector Razor. For arms and legs get in the bath for 5-10 min. and shave while wet--its easy.

For the problem of lipstick that has to be easily removed try Helen Neushafer's from Woolworth, soap and water should do it and its cheap. Alice suggests using Westmore's paste rouge applied with a lipstick brush and blotted. She says it works good, looks good, and comes off easily.

Don't be bashful about plucking eyebrows or shaving arms and legs. Do it a little at a time over a period and nobody will notice the gradual change. Just don't let the stubble come back in the eyebrows. On arms and legs you don't have to get every single hair-thin 'em out by doing it here and there or lightly to cut them shorter. This should work for all but very dense growths. Watch women's arms and legs to see how hairy some women are and you won't feel so sensitive. Readers ask about blouses coming untucked--there are strips which are coated with latex. These are sewed or pinned in- side the skirt band and are tacky enough to hold the blouse in place. For shoulder straps that slip off there are strap holders available that pin inside the shoulder of a dress they fold around the straps and snap back on themselves. There are replacement shoulder straps and bra-back extenders too for some of you with big chest girths. All these items can be gotten at notion counters.

Padding for curves can easily be made by using slabs of either foam rubber or foam plastic trimmed to shape with scissors. Worn under girdles and tapered correctly they give perfect curves and are undetectable. Make nipples too.

Proper shape, weight, softness and bounce of breasts can eas- ily be obtained by using the inflatable falsies in your own size bra filled with the special jelly advertized in Goods and Services section. Those who have gotten them are really pleased at the natural effect obtained,
