Beauty Chats on Nails and Care by Edna Kent Forbes
This beauty column argues daily nail feeding complements manicures to keep nails strong and pink. It warns against brittleness from dry skin and caustic soaps, recommending a nourishing cream with oils and a mild astringent to prevent cuticle overgrowth. It lists a do it yourself recipe for a nail cream. It also notes fashion shifts in hair styling for daytime and evening wear.
What's a party for and who hosts it
Ruth Cameron argues parties succeed when the hostess aims to create a good time for guests, not to showcase possessions. She critiques the wet blanket hostess who exhausts herself to impress, noting that welcoming ambience and genuine hospitality matter more than perfect homes or costly goods.
