does anyone know any tips or home remeies to cure acne. i have it on my forehead and in a few areas on my face. i have tried everything to get it to go away but it wont. i have tried clearisil,clearisil ultra, clearisil gel, clearisil 3 step thing, acne free(same as proactiv but cheaper and bigger bottle),equate acne pads,stridex acne pads,aspirin with lemon juice,asprin and lime juice, rubbing alcohol, washing my face more often, not touching my face and a combination of each. please help!!!
Omg. try murad. or morad. however it is spelled. it is pronounced - m yur ad. look it up. order it. u can order whatever you need for your face. Like if you want.. something that keeps your face from being oily, they got it. Something to get rid of scars, they got it. A daily wash for umm blackheads, they got it. So its like you make your own kit. Good luck
so my hair is naturally straight. [i'm asian] & it doesn't really get a lot of volume. so what are some tips or products that i can get to give my hair long lasting volume. nothing to expensive but also nothing cheap that only keeps it volumized for a couple of hours. also my hair always has that split in the middle and i absolutely hate it! when i run my fingers through my hair, it still ends up splitting right in the middle.how can i keep it from splitting and just connecting together? thanks!
Look for certain brands that you use. Such as umm... Loreal, Suave and all those hair product brands and look for soomething that says volumizing. I would use moouse to make your hair have more volume. To get rid of the part.. shampoo your hair, rinse it, then put conditioner and do NOT rinse, brush your hair so that its all untangled, brush it back real good so that no hair is sticking out, then get a scunchie/elastic and put it in a tight bun that is mid way, not high not low. Then get a shirt..like a thin tank top and figure out a way to wrap your hair with it. (to hard to explain on comp.) or get a huge bandana. And once you have that on.. get a scrunchie and put it on the bun but over the bandana/shirt. Make sure its tight and wont come off. Now your hair in the morning will be back. and should stay back. Now you can do that with any part.. just part it how you want before wrapping it up. Good luck. tell me how it comes out so if it doesnt work I can help again.
on my myspace, when someone comments me or leaves me a picture comment, it now sends me a message asking me to approve it. It has never done this before. How can I get it back to the way it use to be? I hate how it is now and it makes me go ahh when I cant find out what to do. If you know whats going on for sure, please help!! =D

go to account settings. and it will say " have message sent to you for approval of comments" something like that.
me and my boyfriend have been having sex for 3 weeks almost 4 times a week, i am now feeling dizy, fitgued, feverish, and my boobs have been killing me and are getting bigger. Im not sure if i am sick or i am getting pregant. When will it be a good time to take a pergnancy test so i can see if i am [my age is not important u will just judge me anyway.]
Now. of course.
boobs get bigger during pregnancy.. so check before you find out that your some weeks pregnant. I wont judge you, because you've alrady done it so theres no rewinding that. What you did is completely your business so no judgement here. :) if your not pregnant see your doctor and tell her wats up. If you dont want to get pregnant.. you may want to consider birth control. hope i helped..and definitely ask me ne more questions.
how do you make cleaning your room fun?
have a friend help. mostly have them do everything lol. or listen to music, thats fun. dance around while cleaning.
Hello my name is Rebecca Anne. I have a 7 month old daughter named Rylee. I'm 18 years old. So for the past few nights Rylee hasnt been sleeping well. Its like when I put her down she screams and if I pick her up she stops. But I cant hold her forever because adventually my arms get tired. Can someone give me some advice on what to do please? I'm desprate lol.
My dad says when I was a baby he let me sleep on his stomach and he slept on his back. If you can handle that and be comfortable then try that, because Rylee might not want to leave you. Or have her sleep very close to you.
can you wear pads while you go swimming
NO WAY ! I dont even want to imagine that.
Embarassing situation just ready to happen.
That pad will come right out. Wear a tampon or dont wear nothing. it stops when you go in the water anyway.
I'm a 13 year old female. There's this guy I like A LOT, it's different from the other guys too. I was planning on kissing him tomorrow night at the movies, but now I'm having second thoughts, because I was on the phone today earlier and we were talking but his friends were at his house, which whom I can't stand, and vice versa. So they kept grabbing the phone and hanging up. I quit trying to call back but then I tried one last time, and then he answer, not his friends. And we talked for like 30 minutes, because he told me he was supposed to be meeting a girl B which I have no problem with but more girls too. And I was like oh, then he was like who are you going with and I said my friend A which he can't stand, and he said not A.C right. I was like nope wrong it's her. And he was like then don't bother trying to find me, and I'm not calling you when I get there. I was like you are so inconsiderate and mean. And he said how, I said because your inviting all your little girlfriends, and I can't bring my one best friend? You don't even care about anyone else's feelings! And I don't know but he went to go do something, and I heard one of his friends say I don't want you to talk to her. So I decided I wouldn't call back. But tomorrow night what should I do? Should I act like none of it happened and kiss him, or just not watch the movie with him at all and keep ignoring him? Please help, sorry if it was long.
If he lets his friends hang up on you then it shows he doesnt care much. I mean all guys say bros before hoes but still they are considerate to people they like. I say you can still go to the movies but why kiss him. Dont let him get that satification. That will be just playing way to easy to get. And if he doesnt like your best friend then you should be thinking "hoes before bros" because thats your friend. Sounds like he was being rude on the phone and being rude doesnt earn him a kiss. If he knows that he can be rude and still get that what will keep him from being more rude? or mean the next time you guys talk on the phone. Guys are real idiots on the phone too. I know i said they are still considerate to those they like but some guys act really different around their friends then when theyre with a girl. So maybe he is the kind of guy who just listens to his friends but once he's sees you and is alone he'll be real nice. That type i would stay away from. Because who wants a jerk on the phone and a sweet heart in person. You know ? So take my advice and be cool with him the next day but not like nothing happened at all. Basically just dont kiss butt. Good luck and if you need any more advice, im here for you. -peachy
I have dark brown long hair. Olive skinned. Skinny with curves. I need some fashion tips. What colors would.. well.. compliment my skin and such? What type of dresses, shirts would make my curves stand out? I've been hiding behind baggy clothing because I'm out of the fashion loop. I've been told to stay away from black and brown though.
Any websites? No expensive stores like abercrombie/fitch stuff..
Anything like Charlotte Russe, Forever 21, definitely Wet Seal. and more. good luck
is it okay if i use a super absorbancy tampon if my flow is regular? super is the only absorbancy i have.
Yes its okay. Now you can just have it in for longer, and isnt that better. If you got one that was lighter than your flow than you would need to change it more. hope i helped.
ok i really need some advice so plaease help.
me and my friends have become very good friends with our substitue teacher at school. he is 40. and we are 16. he works with the police (drug buster) hes a security at the mall and we visit him every day. my mom knows him threw the school system becsacz shes a teacher. hes also in the army and is going away to iraq in a few weeks and we have been plannin to go out to eat before he leaves for about 6 months now. we are with him at the mall all the time and he drives us home sometimes. he alredy brought 1 of my friends to get pizza a few nights ago. and he jus asked me to do our food thing tuesday b4 he leaves. i have no problem doing that. he knows i love to drimnk (i dc that its illegal) he asked me what kind of alcohol i want becuase hes gunna buy me some for tuesday so i can dirnk. the thing that makes me think is that even though im good friends with him and i trust him ocmpletly, it seems sketchy that hes asking me to drink. i mean, i cood think of it as him bein my own age and bein jus friends, but like idno its jus weird that since hes 40 and im 16 and im gunna be drinkin with him. i do want to get suttin to eat wit him, but idno if i shood drink. please tell me what i should do. and if i shouldnt drink wit him, what are excuses i can tell him? (i dnt wanna say cz ur 40 and its weird)thanks, all help is needed.
Well you dont need to avoid what you like to do just because of the person, try drinking something light that couldnt possibly get you drunk, such as wine coolers. Smirnoff is really good. Or if your positive you dont want to then just make a joke out of it,like Oh Im trying to cool down on the liquor so no thanks. Or anything that wont make it seem like your thinking its because hes 40. Its nice that you and your sub can talk and stuff, but also be careful like the rides home. It seems like if someone found that out he wouldnt really be subbing to much more. But goodluck with the dinner, and I wish him well in iraq.
I REALLLLLLY want a talent show at my school. but my school dosnt have talent shows. what do i do???
Go around, like at lunch and pen and paper, start a petition for talent shows. A lot of people might want what you want. Then if you think you have enough people signed then bring it to the principal and let him think about it.
hi! ok.. this is my story.. wen i was lik in teh 6th grade i liked this boy.. lets call him Z. i really used to lik him.. and then i moved to a different town and didnt see him no more, when i moved i cried so much because i knew i wudnt see him no more. i was sad for leaving him. i kinda lost contact with him.. but i still found myself thinking about him once in a while.. but at that time i had another crush.. then recently.. (i just finished 8th grade..) i started talkin to him again on myspace and i hav a strange feeling that i never really got over him. & i think i still like him a litte bit at least. now this is where i.m confused..
im not sure if i like him at all because i like this other guy, lets call him A. and ive liked him for over a year now, & i definately lik him a lot more.. i know him too even tho. we aint really "friends-friends" < you know.. we aint really that "tight" but honestly think i love him.. even if people only think its a crush..
anywayz.. i used to be friends with Z and im not really friends with A, but i really love him. how do i kno if i still hav at least some feelings for Z even if i love A?
i.m sorry if i made this really long.. but i need to kno wat u think..
Thank You soooo much.. you have no idea how much this is gunna help me.. :D
I know you really like/love A, but if A dont like you then you need to get over him. About Z well you dont kno Z well enough, everytime you talk to someone you used to like you might start to get those feelings back for the person, but its juss what happens, its like a phase. You'll find new and better guys that like you and want to be with you. I have this feeling that mayb and M has somethin to do with it. Maybe not now, but soon. M -remember that.
well this will be long sorry ut i really need help not mentally but with my friends!!! i have one group of friends lets name them A B C D diched me last summer sense their camp counserlurs and im not so i had one friend from tht group that wasnt either so we became bffs! but i made older and newer friends from my school that are abs. amazing but their going into highscool and im going tino 8th and like there is lets call her k she is my bff from last summer. and she wants to hang with me and i will then theres the popular ppl i guess! the boys ang with them a lot and girls from my school hang with this major slut and i told them that she is a whore and they want me to pisck a group and im bffs with the boys but the boys dont want me to they say wenever u have the time fit us in and their cool like that but the girls arnts!!
help sorry its long i need the help please!!
OKay well first no one can make you choose between the groups and you dont need to. The boys sound chill, so how about you only hang with them, you dont need to hang with the whore just because they do. Your other best friends, abcd, you should keep hanging with them. Its great to have a lot of friends, because you cant always hang with certain ones,because they might be busy, so then you have the other ones to hang with. Those groups dont need to be friends with eachother, but its cool that you have connections to all of them, so keep those connections, have fun.
I do have boobs. But they are really small. And I have bras that make my boobs look bigger. But I want to know how to make my boobs look bigger in a swim suit. But I have a one piece not a two piece. So i asked my mom for a two piece because they come with padding. but she said no. how can i make my boobs look bigger in a one piece bathing suit?
There are one pieces that have padding in them. They probably wont be in the juniors section, so you have to look in the womens. Or some one pieces have the holes on each side just like a bikini top, so you can place the padding in it. and the padding will be in it. The one pieces are kind of sexy though, but not all, so just keep looking around and get moms approval.
I am 14 and this guy that I like is 17, we both like each other but everyone keeps telling us that it is too weired for the ages too be together what do you all thing it is only 3 years. Im going to be a freshman next year and he will be a senior. So are our ages too far apart?
You two may like eachother, but I say that you shouldn't go out,because he should be dating at least a junior. Your just going to high school and hes about to leave soon. It'll be only three years when your older, but now its a big three years. You should date someone is who your age or 15. Theres a couple things on a guys mind in their teen years, so imagine almost 18. Whether you guys feel weird around eachother or not, it might look weird, and if it doesn't look weird than it will be weird when people know your ages. I say they are too far apart, but its up to you and him.
Ok, so Im really laid back and stuff like that. I dress the total opposite. Like, I'm a cheerleader or something. My freinds even call me emo and goth alot but I am ok with that. I need tips on how to look punk like Avril Lavigne. You know, hair, clothes, and make up. Please HELP ME!!!!
Lot of eyeliner, no eyeshadow, mascara if you want, Stripe clothing, skulls (cute skulls), tight wristlets/bracelets not like the girly girl kind, piercing on your top ear (called Helix or Rim piercing) Van Sneakers. If you dont what vans are go to vans.com i think or look them up on google. You can still look cute and not all in black and stuff, so dont worry. Good luck. ne more questions ask me.
Ok so im like really in to tarot or whatever and i really want to get a some cards of my own but i dont really know were to buy them. I hurd you could get them at spencers or hot-topic but i went to spencers and i couldnt find them of course i was too shy to ask but if any one can tell me were i can buy them and around how much they caust thanx oh and i know it depends on what kind of deck you get so i want the one that kinda looks like the playing cards you know what i mean
You can check in antique stores. I got mine from a place that was kind of like that. They had stuff like rocks that were mystical or something and beads and stuff like that. If where you live there is a downtown area, there should be a lot of stores, look at the ones you wouldnt normally step into.
my dad has myspace blocked on netgear... and my boyfriends ex just wrote me, i wanna read it,liiike now. and i don't know how to get past it. does anyone else know any sites or anything to get past it??? please and thank you.
Ive never heard of net gear, but I know that when I need to unblock something I go to my firewall, because sometimes it purposely blocks things for safety of my computer. Also you can go to a near by library and sign on there. Dad will never know. Good luck
My friend's boyfriend is terrible. He smokes, drinks, does drugs. Basically, all the things she'd never do. And now we barely talk anymore and I don't know what to do. They've been together for a while now, but we've been friends 5 times longer. I try talking to her, but she pushes me away. How can I tell her that she can do so much better? What should I say?
Tell it to her straight. She'll appreciate it in the end. Tell her that her bf needs to clean up his act, because all his drinking, smoking, and drug use just aint cute. Then tell her she is better than what he does, and that she can make him change and that if he dont want to change than she deserves better. But you also have to understand that maybe she likes him just the way he is. Tell her that you feel like your friendship is kind of being pushed to the side, because of her relationship with her boyfriend. Tell what you think and what you feel.
