Skin & Body - November 2006

I have tried (in the past):
Philosophy's Hope in a Jar (I give it about 4 out of 5 stars)
Signature Club A's 5 Essentials Creme (4.5 stars, lacks moisture)

But my favorite is Retroactive from Avon. It is inexpensive, and about a 5 star product (but lacks a bit of moisture). I have also tried their retinol sticks, I like that too. When I use Retroactive I don't need to exfoliate (I think retinol naturally does it) or use masks or anything else.

Anyway...What's your favorite, inexpensive retinol product and why? Does it reduce redness and exfoliate your skin? I would love to try something else (I like to mix it up a bit!)

I have had a scar around the right side of my stomach since I was little. It looks like a burn but it was from a very bad form of chicken pox called chingles. My closest friends know what it is. But when people I do not know very well see my stomach and just stare. I don't know how to react it just makes me more self contious about it. I feel more comfortable when people know what it is from and stuff. How do I handle this?!?

I am getting fed up with my ance

I always have at least 3 HUGE red big ones. and lots of little colorless ones everywhere. also minor ones everywhere

I am 100000% self concious

I cry almost every night because of it.


People give me weird looks

I try to ignore it, but i cant


I just want to craw into a black hole.


I hate it when people stare at me, so i always bury my face in my sleeves.


I need to get rid of it. Or i will cry myself into a grave.

I've just posted the same question under a different topic but i'm not getting any answers...

I've just recently bought Kirk's Original bar soap. I'm wondering if it will work on clearing up my Moderate Acne?? I've used it once or twice, and it makes my skin feel really soft and it gets rid of the belmishes for a while just leaving the zits. Is it worth using for a long time or will my face adapt and the whole thing will backfire??

I was thinking of getting a tattoo of a toe ring and I was wondering how you would take care of it.

I know after my last 2 tats, I wasn't allowed to having anything covering it (especially tight clothing). Well, I must wear socks at work and it is too cold (and wet) to wear flip flops to class.

How do I get around this?

Also, anyone have a tattoo like this? How did you stand it? I'm ticklish on my foot. I imagine it will hurt since it is so close to bone.

Thoughts?

I'm just curious about the different types of piercings down there. I already have my hood done.

I know you can get the labia (minora and majora) done and the very rare clit. Is there anything special? What do some women on here have? Any good sites with pics?

Thanks.

does the cold weather make your skin paler? and im not talkin about the lack of sun and stuff. i mean does the cold itself have an affect on skin tone?

I want to get a tat soon...I know what i want but im debating on where i should get it... I was thinking back/left shoulderblade... The whole lower back thing is so overrated... The only problem is that i dont want it to look overly aggressive... Some where tasteful but sexy... I was also thinking hip bone or some where below my bellybutton but the problem with that is if you decide to have a baby or gain wait it will stretch and look horrible... So im open to suggestions... Got any?

No one in real life have such perfect complexions. I realize that makeup can cover stuff up, but even makeup shows some flaws! How the heck do celebrities get such perfect faces??
