Beauty & Style - 22 August 2006

The doctors and pharmaceutical companies have most definetly come 2gether to rob the world of their hard earned money. Most dermatology is cosmetic in nature and therefore not covered by insurance. So I had to pay like $200 just for the appointment to have her look at me for like 30 seconds and then prescribe me medication: Brevoxyl-4 (Creamy Wash-Benzoyl Peroxide 4%) and Finacea Gel (Azelaic acid 15%) which cost about another $200. So now to get a refill I have to spend another $200 for another 30 second appointment. Does anyone know a way to get this stuff w/o a prescription?

Six months ago my boyfriend and I made a bet, the first one who lights up a cigarette has to be a personal slave to the other for an entire weekend. He said if I loss, I would have to wear a french maids outfit with high heels and wait on him hand and foot. We never deciced on what he would wear. Anyhow I caught him smoking in the garage. Do you think I should make him wear the french maids outfit? Also I am throwing a baby shower for a friend, should I have him serve us while dressed as my personal maid, or should I just let the poor guy off the hook?

If I were to get color contacts, I would get non-prescription color contacts so I can wear glasses over them. I have a light beige skin tone and I am a brunette with brown eyes.

So a few days ago I visited a Wal-Mart Vision Center and the lady there told me she liked acuvue color contacts better than freshlook, because they don't dry out as much. However, I looked at the freshlook colors and they look more natural to me (on the website) than the acuvue colors (on their website). What do you think? What do you like better, acuvue or freshlook? Please explain! This is a pretty tough decision. Thanks!

To me, that phrase is insulting.

I'm considered skinny by some at 5"6/110 lbs. Because I don't have "curves", does this mean I am a transexual in women's clothing? Aren't some "curves" mostly shaped by bones? E.g. slightly wider hip bones + a small tummy can give one a curvy shape!

And just because my boobs are a size B not D, does that mean I am not womanly enough? At what size or level of "curviness" exactly does a girl become "WOMANLY"? And when did fat become the sole sign of womanliness?

Isn't that phrase a way to make big girls feel better by putting skinny people down? Why can't we all be more confident about ourselves without stepping over other people's confidence?

Why can't people agree both skinny AND big girls can be sexy? It doesn't have to be one way or the other. I don't know why a guy has to be "brainwashed by the media" because he likes a skinny girl.

So, I know the quote is a confidence booster to some but is it really fair to use?

Thanks.

I got my tongue pierced four weeks ago and now there is like this lump under it (on the bottom of my tongue) and its kinda white but its like dead skin, not pus or anything. I went to the doctor and he said its a granuloma or something like that and it should be alright just keep using listerine. So yeah, it hurts a tiny bit. But i am kinda suss on what the doctor said,has this happened to any of you, or do you guys know what i can do to get rid of it? Please please help. I do not want to take it out cos i love it.

So, I'm getting a little concerned,my son is not into emo or punk.
because my first thought was he was turning punk. He is very thin, and he likes his shirts to fit tight, and when we went school shopping he bought 2 pairs of skin tight girls jeans. Last night he went to Wet Seal and bought a 'white' studded belt. He wanted a frilly shirt, and I said no way!! What is going on here??
