Stevens’ beauty tips
Lucy Sawyer Stevens was always willing to share advice on makeup. Here are a few of her tips:
• “Never put soap and water on your face. A good cleansing cream, one that dissolves the moment you touch it, is the thing to use on your skin.”
• “Powder must complement the wearer — not match the skin. A platinum blond must maintain her fresh, rosy complexion even if she needs to resort to green powder to frustrate the brown effects of sun.”
• “No woman should have a boudoir that does not contain a triple dressing mirror.”
