Dojbs she use face powder?
That's the question your friends will ask among themselves while
they comment on the improved appearance of your complexion ob
tained from the use of Shnri Face Powder. Usually it takes an ex
pert to conceal the fact that she uses face powder. With Shari,
however, it's different. Shari Face Powder possesses such an im
palpable fineness and is so naturally , tinted that it produces a
glorious effect without being noticeable on the face. Try it and see
for yourself.
