Beautytips for skin and hair
Our Roman ancestors
had several bridal
customs " that have
lingered through cen-
turies of celebration and
ritual. For one, they
tossed a torch at the end
of the ceremony.
The. French.. revised this.
in the 1300s to a' safer
bouquet of flowers, with
the person catching them
destined to marry next.
The Romans gave us
=the wedding veil,
believing it was ' a
protection from evil
spirits. Their wedding
cakes were water,
barley, flour and salt,
then the necessities of
life.
As to June brides, these
ancients believed that the
sixth month, named for
Juno, Goddess of
marriage, was the most
propitious time to wed.
June is still the most
popular month for
weddings. Seasonally it is
the perfect beginning.
Life blossoms and the
earth is at its peak of
warmth and vitality.
Planners for June
weddings are thinking
NOW about d that . big
event. If they aren't, they
soon should be.
There are countless
aspects to the perfect
wedding that take
months of planning:. the
color scheme, the clothes,
the flowers, the guest list
- details such as the
reception and the music.
All ..exciting and .all
needing considerable
planning.
The focal point at that
June, or, indeed, that
January wedding is the
bride herself. All eyes are
on her -on this, her most
special day.
As lovely as she will
ever be, she takes the
right preparation and
follows a few useful
beauty tips. The experts
at Revlon have some well
chosen tips to help make
all beautiful dreams
come true.
Two immediate steps
every bride should take
as early as possible are
plain common sense. The
first is to establish the
one fragrance that will be
her special signature.
When she walks down
that aisle and, into her
groom's life forever, it
wouldn't do to suddenly
surprise- him with some
exotic perfume - the
fragrance he will always
associate with life's finest
moments should be
subtly expressive of his
bride.
Jontue is a lovely
choice - romantic and
endearing, it conveys a
timeless message of
special caring • .and
feminine warmth.
The second step
recommended is to take
into account, .along with
the bridal gown and
flowers, exactly how the
bride's hair and make-up
will complete the picture
of perfection.
Hair may need to grow
during the coming
months, and the color
may need subtle
changing or brightening.
Walking down the aisle
with a dramatically long
auburn hair -do is fine
unless the bride had short
brown hair only the day
before!
All the experts .agree
that the classic bride has
a subtle make-up- the
merest hint sof hardness,
or too much brightness, is
not desired.
The time to begin
learning proper make-up
application is during
these planning stages, not
at the last minute.\
Last, but hardly least,
skin • care is . an ongoing
concern for all: for the
bride it is especially

necessary to evolve a
daily routine of skin
maintenance that makes
the face glow and shine
with health and beauty.
In prehistoric times,
cave dwellers simply
kidnapped the most
desirable bride from - a
neighboring tribe and the
"best man" helped fight
off angry relatives. What
little planning the bride
accomplished she did
while being dragged to
her new cave! ,
Celebrating wedding
rites began long ago.
Today's weddings are a
once in a lifetime op-
portunity for brides to
shine radiantly but, from
the Romans on, planning
makes that special dif
ference.

PLAN WEDDING, MAKEUP and try it out with dreds and ac
cessories far m advance of the wedding day, advises Glenn
Roberts of Elizabeth Arden. "Since wearing all white and dim
church lighting tend to 'wash out' features, don't be afraid to
wear plenty of color in lively pastels," he says.
