I've had pretty decent skin thus far in my life, but I decided to start using Proactive to maintain nice, clean, and clear skin. I Which it has worked well for me, but I was wondering if I would start breaking out if I stopped using it? (FYI: I NEVER had acne before I started using Proactive.)

I have very dry skin and as a result I'm noticing a lot of lines on my face as well as having flaky and sore itchy skin and the texture feels a little rough. I use a face wash every day and moisturise with Olay daily moisturiser. However, my skin really suffered this winter as I now work in windowless office so my skin looks parched. Because my skin looks so bad I cover it up with Maxfactor powder Facefinity foundation for my work day but I guess it just makes matters worse. Any advice of how I can rehydrate my skin and restore it's suppleness? By the way, am in my late twenties if that helps somewhat.

Thanks

I was wondering if I should keep shaving or not? I have red bumps, so I do put lotion on them, but they come back after shaving, I its probably irritation...but I have dark brown hair so it shows when I grow it out...veet doesn't work since the last time I used it and my hair takes to long to grow out to use nair...and waxing is not my thing!!! If shaving shouldn't be continued, please tell me what to do to get my legs clean and silky smooth (an maybe a sensitive skin tanner)

I NEED HELP!!!

My brother's wedding is tomorrow, and I'm a bridesmaid. Problem is, that I look like I'm 15 with the recent outbreak of acne and stuff. I'm actually 26, so this is pretty embarrassing. Are there any quick fixes to put on my face to minimize the issues on it so I can feel ok with 200 people looking at it? I've been putting toothpaste on them every night, but it's not helping much. I don't usually have a problem with facial blemishes, so I'm at a loss.

Thanks!!!!

Someone who actually saw results with proactiv suggested that the reason that it may not have worked for others is becuase they may have overused or misused the product. She had overused the product before but found that when she used it correctly she saw great results.
I was told to use a dime size amount of cleanser, a cotton swob of the toner, and another dime size amount of the lotion. When used in these amounts could proactiv actually be effective??

I use wax, but I'm so tired of it because it takes alot of time and effort, and most of the times it doesn't remove all the hair. I like shaving because it's very easy and doesn't take alot of time. The problem is that my body hair is very thick, so when I shave, you could see pores or holes in my legs.
I only shaved once so I'm afraid now of shaving. Does it really make the hair thicker? Is it true that very tiny small pieces of hair will show the next day and they look like dots because they're so small? Is there a cream or something that I could use before shaving for best results? It doesn't peel off the first layer of your skin, so I guess that nice shiny look will be gone.
What about for under the arms? The problem is that I have dark spots that will stay there if I don't use wax.

I want to get my bottom lip pierced (Havn't decided. .I'll either get central, or snake bites :P) Anyway. . a friend of mine told me that if you pierce your lip and let it heal with a stud in, then you can only wear studs in it, an can't switch to a ring. And, she said that if you let your lip heal with a ring in it, then you can't put a stud in it. Is that true?

I was born with really thin lips that I got from both of my parents. And my own mother said they will get smaller as I get older! I am really desperate and I will try anything as long as it doesn't cost more than $40+. Does anyone know something good and where it's located?

My skin tends to break out sometimes but overall its just dull with no glow. And i have visible pores. Its such a pity because my dress is soo nice and it will look horrid if my skin looks crap. Any tips on making it smooth and pores less noticable? Thanks

ok i want to get a little diamond stud on the left side of my nose but i have a few questions. the first one is can i get it done if i do not have a little dent in the side of my nose when i smile? my friend has hers done and she said that when you smile u should have a little dent on either side of ur nostril and if u dont have it then they cant do it...is that true? second can it be pierced with a little diamond stud or does it have to be a big one/ a ring? third...i need as much detail as possible about what exactly it feels like..i dont care if u tell me that it was the most painful thing in the world..i just want to know what to expect..i have a fairly low tolerance for pain yet have 2 tattoos, 4 earrings per ear and bellybutton pierced :)

p.s please dont lecture me about infection, that its ugly/stupid/trampy etc etc...im going to a very sanitary and nice place, i like the way they look and if i wanted to know what ur personal views on piecings were then i would have asked :)

I'm a guy...and before any other guys mention it...NO I'm not gay, I just want to try to take care of my skin.

Anyways...as I mentioned I'm a guy, looking for a good product to exfoliate my skin that doesn't smell too "fruity". Any product suggestions that I can pick up at a local retailier (i.e. Wal-Mart, Target's?)

10 points to anyone with a good suggestion.

Thanks in advance!

I do the stand-up tanning, where you have the lightbulbs surrounding you [i only go tanning during the summer BTW]...is it safe to go naked though.....only once or twice. The only thing i would be concerned is with my breasts....i dont wanna make them saggy or give myself breast cancer. Help.

[AND DONT LECTURE ME ON THE DANGERS OF TANNING, I already know them, and I've obviously made my decision about it]

My friend told me that there's this type of lotion or creme with papaya in it that kind of reverses your pigmentation, basically making it lighter...is that true???
