Skin & Body - December 2006

Well, I have a little bit of acne, nothing bad at all, just little zits here and there.

It used to be bad, so the Dermatologist put me on medicine, and it's been working quite well. But, now it's stopping, and I'm starting to get, painful, sistical acne, it doesn't show, it just hurts because it's deep under the skin.

Should I go back to the dermatologist? Get OTC medicine? Or keep using the current prescription?

Much Love,
Maddi

do you think that barbie gives the impression to young girls that all females should have pencil thin waists and perky boobs?

My sister says that there is a chance it can make your clit completely numb. I don't get why, because your hood, not the clit, is pierced. Also, does it get a lot of scar tissue later?

My skin has NEVER been as dry as it is this Winter season. Seriously, I will apply a ton of moisturizer, and a few hours later, it will be dry again. And it also feels so tight when it's dry. It's just very uncomfortable, and the tightness creates a pulling sensation. i've taken to carrying around a small bottle of face moisturizer wherever I go. I need to know, can anyone give me some advice on how to keep my skin moisturized for longer than a few hours. Should I drink more water? Or maybe it's the product i'm using? I use a St. Ives facial moisturizer...but I don't know if it's working or not. I seriously need answers and advice, because this is just uncomfortable. What can I do, or what are the best products to use? Thanks in advance!

In gym, we all have the same uniform of a short sleeve shirt and mesh shorts.

This is my first year in the uniform, and I am starting to feel uncomfortable. I am not totally obbsessed with it, but it is just one of those things that sort of frustrating.

For example: We are playing soccer, no shin guards. I am going for the ball, and so is a sporty guy. I aim to kick it out of his way, and he does at the same time. He ends up kicking me painfully in the shin.

Our overreacting gym teachers run over and want us to sit down so they can examine our shins. So the whole class crowds around me and my hairy legs, examining them to see a future bruise forming.

The hair there isn't dark, sortof goldenish, but still....

Do you think I should be worrying about it at my age? I am only in 6th grade, but it just makes me feel...insecure.

The main tattoo is brightly colored and intensely. There is a separate smaller tattoo on the top in solid red. This smaller piece is highly faded and a less intense tone of red compared to the red tones in the main tattoo. The tattoo is nine days old. I took excellent aftercare precautions. I removed the bandage after three hours and washed the area gently with mild soap and lukewarm water. Every day I have applied a thin layer of Bepanthen cream after leaving the shower and patting the area dry. The rest of the tattoo is perfect. This one area has healed very poorly. The red tone is less bright and vivid almost pink rather than the deep blood red I desired. I believe I need to go back next week for extra work on it. What could have caused this to occur? The area flaked as normal and it's a separate area that has the poor healing.

as far as fading/blurring goes, is it better for a text tattoo to be bigger with bold script font, or bigger/ smaller with a fine script font?
