: Face Cream Can't
Be Used as Base
I By ALICIA HART
j NEA Staff Writer
' A lot of shiiiy noses and messy
make-ups are" plights that could
; f i be averted if women would not
use -a face cream as a powder
t base. I
(. JTKa't's Hollywood's Pere 'West-'
; 4 more, studio make-up man,
'speaking, who explains that un-
der stress of exertion or emotion
; face creams liquefy on the skin,
V wreck a make-up or let loose a
? shine. ' They do, according to our
expert, because they are created
. lat a melting point of body tem
, perature for quick cleansing and
-Jubrication; are not intended to
jl be used as a powder base.
1 Those creams or liquids that
fare intended to be used as a pow-
r't'der base, says Westmore, are so
y. formulated that they can absorb
5 oil . excretions and a certain
; ? amount of perspiration. To use
' j'that kind is to be safe against a
streaked or runny make-up or an
S overwhelming shine.
