"Time to change your thinking about eye make-up
To model your eyes on the Siamese cat's: long and tip-tilted.
To stroke on brighter, more intensely hued shadow and to use it lavishly from the center of the lid out to the brow, with a feline darkening at the outer corners. (And possibly to fill in the rest of the eyelid with dead white or silver.)
To change to jewel-coloured mascaras: emerald greens, deep blues and amethyst purples.
To make sweeping, clearly defined wings - like Japanese calligraphy - of your brows.
...and if you haven't changed your hairdo, the new hat will make it practically mandatory. Hair should be short and ruffly, with a few strands escaping over the brow as if by chance."
What's Under The Hat?
