Skin & Body - January 2007

When i wake up in the mornings my face is very dry I would like to wear base and powders ( which i haven't wore since 8th grade due to horribly dry skin) I have exfoliators and things and expensive lotions but when i put on make up ( blush, powder,) there is like redish bumps; my make up seems to not spread evenly like it's more red like on a dry spot its kinda hard to explain but maybe someone will know what im talking about. I do not get acne or blackheads or break outs i just have DRY skin that wont go away on my face. Im 17 should i be having these problems hah. An easier way to try to explain it is when i rub my face it't soft except in like a few places and that would be the dry places where my makeup seems to build up on.
Help please!

I have a very important wedding to go to and I want to look tanned. I have tried every self-tanning lotion there is out there and even mystic tans, but nothing makes you look golden like tanning beds. I have only tanned in a tanning bed once about six months ago. I decided to only go for 3 sessions of 11 minutes each. Is this enough to get skin cancer? Am I at a big risk? I have medium to fair skin.

I got my first tattoo friday and I love it. But my mom completely freaked out. She said I was a disappoint me and she never wants to talk to me again. But everything was fine today and back to normal because she found a place she wants me to go to have it removed. Should I do it to make her happy or should I leave it because it makes me happy?

Ok, I am really wanting a tatto on my left shoulder that has something to do with friendship, loyalty and love. Heres the story, going through high school I had 5 extreamly close friends, we still are very very close, and we called each other the "circle" (this is important cus everyone knows who we are talking about when we say the circle and I want it imcorperated into the tatto) and I want a tatto that shows our friendship, loyalty, and love for each other. I am trouble coming up wiht a design I want for it but I want it to incorperate the "circle" mean and the 5 guys (6 with me). If you would please post any idea or links to sketches that you have made it would be greatly appreactated for my first tatto. Thanks a lot.

Lets just say that maybe you woke up sunday morning and felt like a buffalo had stomped your head in because you had to much to drink the night before and was in the shower when you noticed a great big tattoo of a elephant eating a penguin on your stomach? Is this some sort of cult sign or something? Like could it mean anything or is it just the dumest thing somebody could possibly think of if really drunk. Would it really turn off women if they saw it? how much would it cost to get removed? Could this happen if somebody was passed out?
I swear I'm gonna write a dang book someday.

Hello all, Just doing an informal survey here, I'm having a tattoo covered in March. It's was my first tattoo. I made a poor stupid decision and picked a piece of flash off of the wall and let an idiot (TRAVIS) at a local shop tattoo me. Now its four years later and I now have some GOOD ink on me and this hideous purple piece of crap has to go. There's going to be a tattoo convention near me in March. I went to the website, looked at the lists of featured artists, checked out their websites and contacted the one I liked best. I sent him a pic of the tatt to cover....we worked everything out this weekend. Then he tells me that I'm going to be his only appointment on Saturday. I have 8 to 9 hours booked to do this coverup. As a featured artist he will have a camera watching over his shoulder and projecting the whole process on to the big screen in the arena. So am all excited and nervous. The longest I've ever sat before is 2 hours.....can anybody out there tell me how 8 hours will be?

I don't pick or pop my pimples, I just let them be thinking they will go away with no trace left behind. But boy, was I wrong. I keep getting these red marks of where they used to be and it's hard to cover up! Either one of two things... 1) How do you conceal them well? 2) How do you make them go away / prevent them?

I am a type 2 diabetic and I am getting a tatto that will take 3 sittings. Should I wait an additional week or 2 between sittings to allow for proper healing due to my diabetes? My sugar levels are 70-80.

Are you underweight or at a healthy weight, but just naturally small?

This is not a dig or anything. I just know I couldn't be a size 0, unless I was about 5lb-10lb underweight, so just curious.

TIA : )
