This little device was distributed by The Pompeian Company, purveyor of cosmetics. Just find your beauty type on the wheel to learn which rouge and powder will work for you. You can see the colors appear in the product pictures. I like the simplicity of this wheel as well as the lovely colors. Of course, the best thing is the types themselves: Wateau Blonde, Creole Beauty, and -- my favorite -- Swarthy Brunette! Is it me or do all the skin tones look the same?
This wheel is dated 1928 and is about seven by five and a half inches. Which type are you? (Please forgive the blurry photos.)

Hey Kristin- I remember my grandmother wore a powder shade of "Rachel". Haven't seen it anywhere, since. Who was Rachel?? Comments are closed.
