Q: I get razor burn ever time i shave... does any one know a good shvegel or a good razor i could used to prevent this?

I find that Hair Condition works very well! Expecially Garner Fruitic and Paintene Pro V. But, I'm sure anythign would work. Just smoother it over your legs in a pretty good layer.

Q: My face is always kind of shiny. Are there any products or anything I could do to get rid of this?

Personally, I like Clean&Clear's oil absorbing sheets. You lightly dab them on your faces and they'll take the shine away without removing your make up. They're expensive but lasta very long time.

Q: Ok, for those of you who are a bit older, Im thinking about running a bar. Not like opening a business, I want to buy a bunch of cheap liquor and serve drinks to my house (about 100 people, give or take) and generally get everyone nice and toasty.

Im thinking about Flaming Dr. Peppers, Jaeger Bombs, 4 horsemen shots, and other things. The other ingredients will be;

Grenadine, Coke, sprite, pinapple juice, orange juice, lime, club soda, rum, tequila, whiskey, and vodka.

Other than tequila sunrises and "whiskey and coke" type drinks, can anyone think of something interesting to make with those ingredients. Like something that uses more than one liquor.

And any suggestions for drinks that might need a different non-alcoholic ingredient (like vodka and something not listed) are also welcome.

Just keep in mind after Ive bought everything I have listed Im going to have maybe 15 bucks left.

Thanks.

Well, I don't drink myself, but I've heard my mom talk about this drink "Pink Poodle". It's a martini made with pink grapefruit juice.

Q: How do i make a guy like me?? they guy i like told my friend "idk maybe" when she was seeing if he would ever go out with me. what does idk maybe mean? if im not quite there, HOW DO I GET THERE?? Ill rate 5's for good answers.

He's avaioding giving a real answer first off. Second, in my opnion you should never have to MAKE a guy like you. It will naturally come if you guys are supposed to be with eachother. Just hang out with him a lot and be his friend first.

Hope that helps.

Q: My hair is so boring and I was wondering how can i make hair wavy without buying anything from the stores?? Anything i can do/use?? Rate 5's for first 6 people if it works.

Curling irons and crimpers. You can achieve big bouncy curls or a suttle wave with either.

Q: I just moved from New Jersey to New Mexico.
I met a really cool kid named Matthew here, and I think that we are close to dating, because we really like each other. The problem is should I tell my ex boyfriend [we're SO close, and we've been best friends for like 7 years, the reason we broke up is because I moved] that I found someone new? & how should I tell him.
Thanks. =P

You don't have to tell him. He is your ex. It's not like your currently dating him. I would let him know about it if the subject comes up. It will make it seem like you still like your ex if you run telling him about the relationship.

Q: my boyfriend dumped me today because he said he was too busy for a gf. My friends think he was using me. We had gone out for 4 months and it was just totally random and unexpected. And i know this sounds a little vague, but what should i do? I cant get him outta my head and he hurt me so much for no reason. He said he loved me more than anybody else =(

Put on your cutest outfit, a cute pari of heels, and go dancing. Have a night out with your girlfriends. Be flirty, be free. Forget the bastard hehe.

Q: what is the difference between being a couple and just dating?

Dating is like, when you go to the make up counter and try on a lips gloss, then wipe it off and try another. No strings attached. A couple? You've found the perfect shade and your putting money down for it.

Yay similes.

Q: Do females find guys with ape like hairy chests sexy?

Personally, I find body hair distugsting, and that seems to be the typical opinion among girls today. So, shave that thing, or stop trying to grow hair!

No offence. Just giving you a truth answer. =)

Q: i pierced my bellybutton myself a couple of times before and i took it out ..now there is a little lump .. could i get my belly button pierced still or i cant? what should i do

It may be infected, I would see a doctor right away so you don't get sick.

Q: I have a problem, I get feeelings for girls more then i do guys. No body knows because i've never told anyone. I just need to know am i a lesbian?

Well, everyone questions their sexuallity at some point. If you find yourself mor attracted to girls, but you still are attracted to boys, you might be bisexual. I would reccomend getting soem advice in Bi Curious chats and forums. Ask how they knew and what made it apparent to them that they were les/bi/gay.

Good luck. =)

Q: My boyfriend and I have been dating for about a week or so now, but beofre we started going out i barely knew him since he went to a diff school and i didnt even think he really knew who i was. I dont feel uncomfortable around him like other ppl when we first start going out but i feel bad when hes with me and my friends and i dont talk. I dont know what to say to him, i always ask him how his soccer game went but that gets really old kinda fast. Hes also not the most talkative around me even though when im not around apparetnly he cant shut up. well in addition to me not knowing what to say, we're doing something this weekend and i have no clue what to do, and when we are actually together i dont want it to be all these awkward silences.

Questions are always the best approach. Questions keep a conversation exciting.

-What other sports do you play?
-What do you enjoy most about them?
-Do you have other hobbies?
-What's your favorite movie?
-What's you favorite kind of music?

Same goes for the lack of things to do. Go places exciting and full of life so you can continue talking. Theme parks, big cities, and concerts are great places to start. Also, going dancing is a great way to stay social as well!

Q: I feel so stressed out, but I don't know why. School isn't any harded than usual, and my family/friends/ love life is fine. I don't physically feel different than any other day, yet for some reason i constantly feel like crying about....everything. i dont know know why, but im so over emotional. nothing has happened to make things different, but im so stressed i feel like i cant take anything anymore. And advice? I rate 5's.

How old are you my dear? This could be a hormone thing. Answer me for more help deary. =D

Q: Top ten ways you can tell if a guy like you please. everyone who answers gets a 5 unless its stupid or mean then they get a 1!

You started noticing that he knows little things about you, that most people don't remember or notice.
You catch him eyeing you.
He's constantly finding a subtle way to touch you...hand holding, brushing up against you.
He doesn't forget important dates: birthday, preformances.

Q: I'm having my senior pictures taken on October 1. I have 4 outfit changes, but I don't know what to wear? What kind of outfits should I choose?

Senior pictures should be a representation of you. So pic 2 outfits that our centered around your personal style, but aso chose two dressier outfits, for a more classic and grown up choice.

Hope that helps!

Q: 13/f Okay..for the girls you may know what I'm feeling here..

Well do any of you other girls ever really want a boyfriend? Well that's the way I'm feeling..I mean lately I just feel..ugly. I mean no guys at school like me and today a few guys asked me out but I know(at least I think) that they were kidding. And in a few weeks I will be going to Cedar Point with my friend for her birthday and she's bringing two of her guy friends. She's saying that me and her guy friends would make such "cute couples" but I don't know..With my luck, they probably won't like me.

I don't know..I guess I'm just really self-concious about this..When I look at other girls, they are so pretty and it makes me feel like I'm as ugly as dirt.

And all of my friends think I'm pretty but I don't. I think I'm fat and that I'm totally unattractive.

If you need to look, I'm about to go upload a picture of myself onto my advice column

Does anyone know why I'm feeling this way? I understand that it's probably hormones but..

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

I feel like this all the time my dear.

One thing you have to ask yourself. When your doing your hair in the morning, getting ready, do you feel ok with yourself when your alone? And when you pull up to school do you then start feeling bad?

Then you know, your ok with yourself. Just think about whether your willing to give up who you are for a guy who (at your age) is a total asshole, who won't be your soul mate anyway.

Hope that helps. Contact me further if you want more help.

Q: See my Grannie died and thats my mom's mom. My mom has been taking it pretty hard latley and she sometimes crys and gets mad and I just feel so bad for her cause its her mom and she loved her alot. Everytime I see her cry I want to confort her but I don't really know what to do or say. She has lost 7lbs in the last 2 weeks and she hasn't been eating right and she is all depressed and empty. She is really scering me and I don't know what to do.

Please Help Me. Thanks in Advance and No stupid answers.

I would maybe contact a close family friend about it. They might be able to confront her baout it and gte her some help. Although you could do this, the family friend might be able to ersuade her better.

I hope all goes well for you, hun.

Q: My best friend in the whole world is moving in about 2 weeks and I'm so upset. I can't get over it, it's unreal for me. I want to spend as much time as I can with him, but that still won't make up for the fact that I'll proabaly never see him again.

What can I do?

Make these last days as memorable as possible. And don't lose hope, you might see eachotherin the future!

Stay in touch and cheeer up!

Q: Hey.
Alittle over a month ago, I lost a friend to suicide.
It was terrible when I first found out, because I mean, I was talking to him the day before he did that.
He told me everything, and I tried to do everything to help. Could I have done more?
Its not really my fault, right?
-Erin

It is not and will never be your fault. You did what you could, babe. It was his/her decision finally. It's so hard to lose someone so horribly. I wish you the best, and if you need someone to talk to, feel free to send me an email anytime.

Q: OKay evrsceince the 6th grade i've hung out with a girl named Chelsea . And dont get me wrong she is my freind its just everytime she want's to borrow something she never gives it back and i don't wanna say anything cause im afride she wont like me and she is KNown as MIss POpular

cAN ANYONE HELP ME?

Ok, first off, popular or not, it's not cool that she is taking your stuff. Confront her about it. Don't be angry though, try and approch it as something commical. Like, laugh as you ask, as if you don't truly believe she took it. If she wont fess up, be stern, but not angry.

If you start a fight, you might never see you stuff again.
