The Huron Expositor, 1979-12-20, Page 9'• • r• S , )31f ALICE GISH :Makeup, those powders and creams and, glosses that some of us put on our face, isn't a mask to hide behind and shouldn't be there just for the colour, Makeup, acceding to John Maxwell, an expert in the field, should be used "to make people feel, good about themselves." Mr. Maxwell, who spent the day at Piet's Place on Dec. 12 to prepare makeup. guidelines fot customers, lives in Los Angeles, but spends about10 Monthsen the road each year, training hairdressers to be facialists and demonstrating the pro. ducts of the cosmetics company he works for. Re Said his most recent trip, which will end the day before Christmas, has taken him from 'Iroquois Falls to Niagara Falls.'" In addition to his beauty Seminars. Mr. Maxwell also acts as a consultant for an organization called Motion Picture Mothers: The mothers of movie and television stars who belong to the organization make a series of public appearances on behalf of charitable causes, Mr. Maxwell said these ladies prove "there's no age limit to beauty," Some of the mothers John Maxwell has worked with include mothers of John Cassavetes, Gena Rowlands, Anson Williams and Peter Marshall. To support ,his belief that "glamour doesn't even start until a woman reaches 40", Mr. Maxwell is now writing a book of glamour t tits for women in the prime of life - and the title is going to be "You're Not So Over The Hill." DRY SKIN What did John Maxwell find is the leading beauty problem of Seaforth area women? "An incredible amount of dehy- drated skin" the beauty expert said, which he blames both on the clim:ate, and on the fact many women are involved in sports • like broomball and crosS-conntrY One of the first things John IVIaxwell does when working up a makeup program for a client is to talk about akin, caret which he believes is particidarly, necessary in this climate. Skin care, according 40) John Maxwell, is just "good preventative medicine". The first step in the process is proper cleansing. Mrs. Maxwell said he's "Not a ' soap fan", rince soap contains too many caustic ingredients. Instead, he recom- mends cleaning with beauty bars or facial cleansers. The cosmetics he prefers are water.based rather thstn.oil-based, since Jelin Maxviell "There's a tremend- ous difference between a lubricant and a Meisturirer." The secret in good skin care he believes is to use" hydrolized products which are putting moisture back into the , skin. -The makeup expert said skin, loses its' moisturizers through aging, diet and stress: The eye area is especially vulner- able since here the skin is the thinnest:on the body and this area 'doesn't have the normal moisture -producing sweat glands. Johrf Maxwell also advocates using a skin toner to decrease pore size and as a further aid in cleansing the skin. To keep bags under the eyes at bay, the facialist recommends taking vitamins A, B complex and] C. The purpose of makeup, in John Maxwell's opinon, is "to re -direct the way someone looks at the face." He said with craftsmanship and homework beauticians can help someone conceal the few minor flaws about their skin, tr Since John Maxwell believes "most women have a drawerful of unwise cosmetic purchases"; he recommends going to a trained facialist to set up a makeup program., This program can in- clude everything from how to treat your A NEW FACE—Makeup expert John Maxwell , demonstrates the art of applying makeup with Sandra Ruston in Piet's Place on Wednesday afternoon.

The women who visited Mr. Maxwell, when he was in Seaforth were given a beauty program they can follow and their makeup design was charted out for future reference.

Programs do change With the seasons somewhat if people are sun worshippers or skiers, Once a program is established, he recommends people go in for a skin analysis at least twice a year just to ensure that everything has stayed the same. In case the male half of the population assumes women are the only ones, smitten with vanity, John Maxwell said the men's makeup field is now really opening up. He said the Private clients he's taken aren't usually the Hollywood types we might expect Instead they're men in high finance Or politics, who want to present asstrong, youthful and clean an appearance as possible to the public.

It starts, though, when I watch my little nephew hanging up his Christmas stocking. His wide-eyed excitement reminds me of the wild anticipation I felt as a child, and Iwarm to the idea of helping to put a few sparlrles in other people's eyes. Most adults complain about shopping - the prices; the crowds, the indeeision, the sore feet I complain, like all the rest,, but deep inside, I actually enjoy it if . In hopes of buying people gifts they need or want, I often ask them what they'd like for Christmas. One of the most frustrating I answers is, ' Oh, nothing!" I find men hard to shop for, especially when they tell me they need a blankety-- blank wrench. Then they grin knowing full well I have no idea what a blankety-blank wrench is or how much It costs. In comparison, 1 am most helpful td anyone who asks me what I'd like for Christmas. I recite a list that includes everything but a kitchen sink, Christmas, . on the serious side is a .special time for family and friends to share gifts and laughter and love. For some, the occasion will be more sober than for others, because every year in every family there sze changes - some happy, some painful.

Perhaps., if we remind ourselves the world seemed in dire straits on that first Christmas many, many years ago we can gain a little hope for the future. Hope is probably the most precious gift any of us can receive on this Christmas and every Christrnas. I felt fortunate recently when I was given an opportunity to help, in a very small way, a refugee family in a camp in Thailand. Many people disagree with me on the subject of bringing refugees into Canada. I'm not about to debate with them. I'm well aware of the problems we have in Canada - inflation, unemployment, energy uncer- tainty. You name .the problem, and we've got it But we've also got freedom and a place to call home; we've got food, clothes and hope. Knowing I have alt these things and knowing I can share them with someone who has not makes me feel fortunate. It has given Christmas fresh meaning for me, and has put rile into the spirit of Christmas. The Tree Trunk 5 Main St., Seatorth • ea uxiIIia s ItR1 Seafe-rth.
