"CREATING WITH MAKEUP"
Ifthere'sone thing I know for a fact. it's that beauty is not a gift. It's a habit! It requires patien0e and practice, and the results are exactly equal to the effort you put forth.
You create your own beauty through creative makeup. The only magic involved is in creating an illusion that camouflages imperfections and en)l.ances assets. That's what makeup is all about •
. ·creative make-up requires utmost honesty on your part, When you look ihamirror9 don't see what you'd like to be --see what you are. Look closely, impersonally. Pretend you are seeing yourself for the first time. Look at each feature individually, then decide if you need to hide it or play it up--or leave it as it is,
vse make-up the way an artist uses color. start with the shade of base tone that's right for your skin, The only wayyou'llknowwhichone is right is to try it on your faca. Apply it all over, blending carefully under the · jaw so that no telltale makeup line shows. If you want to hide an area, add a darker shade of basetone there. If you want to highlight, add a lighter shade there. Now blend until it's smooth and even.
Use creative make-up every day, not just on special Saturday nights. As you practice, you'll become an expert.
If you'll put even a quarter of the effort Into your own beauty that you do into raising your family and cleaning your house, you won't just admire beautiful people --you'll be one!

Benefits for the poor would be proyjded by the Federal Government. MEDICREDIT PLAN.
This proposal is for a voluntary sy">tem that would attempt to encourage the purchase by all Americans of comprehensive health insurance . The poor, defined as those who pay less than $300 in Federal income tax, would receive certificates for complete health insurance paid for entirely by the Government. Those with income tax liability above $300 would receive tax credits on a sliding scale for their purchase of health insurance -- the higher the income the less the credit. PROTECTION AGAINST CATASTROPHIC ILLNESS
Bills falling into this category would empower the secretary of Health, Education and Welfare to establish a program of insurance against the costs of long-term illnesses.
