A red and white tin with text on the lid reading, “Marvelous Matched Makeup / 1 Lipstick / 1 Rouge / Richard Hudnut / New York - Paris Distribution.” Inside are the three products with additional text reading, “At last!

For here are prove-to-yourself sizes of Marvelous Powder, Rouge and Lipstick in SCIENTIFIC COLOR HARMONY. And you can be sure it’s make-up that matches because it is keyed by Richard Hudnut to your very own personality color, the color that never changes, the COLOR OF YOUR EYES. Buy these same shades in 55 cent sizes oof Marvelous Face Powder, Rouge or Lipstick...eye makeup too...at your nearest cosmetic counter.
