SOMETHING ABOUT
HER SO SUBTLY
ATTRACTIVE
Yes, when one is acquaint
ed with Shari Beauty re
quisites, she will know that
“something” is. It is the
soft loveliness of the com

is that alluring fragrance
which Shari perfume and

Shari toiletries are not
only beneficial to the skin,
not only delightfully scent

jewel-like packages. It will
be a pleasure to have you
come and see them.
