Ok so I have these invisible bumps on my thighs and I don't know how to get rid of them. I've tried lotion but it doesn't seem to work. How can i get rid of these bumps and make my legs smoothhhh?
Are you sure you aren't possibly allergic to your shaving cream/lotion? Try using something with aloe or something that is unscented.

I have red bumps on my armpits and i think it is from Shaving. How do i get rid of these bumps and still be able to shave at the same time?
Any recommended razors, shaving cream, lotion, or anything that will help treat and prevent these bumps?
More often than not, those bumps are the result of using a dull blade. Change it weekly if possible.
Make sure to ALWAYS shave right after a shower and not before. If your skin is sensitive, try using a cream with aloe or one that is not scented.
Also, there are aftershave products (TendSkin) that help reduce the redness and bumps.
Give your skin a few days to heal before you shave again. You're only going to irritate it further if you don't.

does anyone know any self tanners that actually work?
i tried that jergens natural glow, and it didnt work at ALL. the ones i see are like, $10 and my mom wont pay(im broke lol) soo i was wondering if there were any good kinds that actually work.
thanks!
I use Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam (when I'm not too lazy :p) and it works really well.
Most anything will if you select the proper color method for your natural skin tone. If you have very light skin and choose a deep tanner, you're going to look very unnatural and teeter dangerously close to orange. Also, make sure to wash and moisturize your skin before applying it. The color should come out just fine with no streaking. It's best though to build your color over time to avoid the orange/streaked look.
Jergans contains a minimal amount of tanner in it as it's meant to be used each night as a regular moisturizer that will add color over time. You need to use ALOT of it to get any real color right away.

my beta has not eaten for about 6 days? does anyone know why? i have been giving him tetramin and betta pellet food and he has not done anything but let it sit there and float to the bottom..so i end up cleaning the tank about every 1-2 days..i dont want him to die either does anyone know what his problem is? HELLPPPP!
Miss May
Found this on google. It might help:
He may be having trouble digesting his food if the room is cooler than 75 degrees. Bettas are tropical, so they need 75 to 85 all the time in order for their bodies to function properly. If you put a light on him it will warm his water and help quite a bit. Keep it on 24 hours a day so it stays warm all the time. Change his water at least once a week. Be sure the new water is the same temperature as the old water and use a water conditioner.

ok so for lent i'm promising myself to walk the dog atleast 1 a week, do 15 situps a day, eating healthy (tho i can never do it) and practice soccer and tennis whenever i can....what else can i do to get results....FAST?
please please help! i'll rate and comment....thanks.
You need to incorporate regular intense cardio into your daily routine to burn fat. (Biking, jogging, tae bo, etc).
You MUST watch what you eat because that is a major part of taking and keeping fat from your body. If you constantly take in more calories than you burn, your efforts are useless. Also, by eating healthier, you're going to feel more energetic.
Be sure to eat breakfast each morning as it will kick start your metabolism.
Results are only going to come when you set realistic goals and commit yourself. There are no tricks.

i was just wondering if you can give me any advice on a good place to take a girl out on a first date. which would be better,the movies or the mall. if a movie what one would be the best. if the mall what oculd i do there.
The mall. Or out to dinner.
Take her someplace where you two can talk and get to know each other better. Movies, to me, seems like a date you choose when you two know each other fairly well as it doesn't allow the chance to talk very much.

ill rate 5's - sry if this is long.
ok so .. i am not the skinniest person in the world but i am on this diet and i am loosing weight. i've already lost 10 pounds and im continuing so by summer i should be able to look good in a bathing suit.
heres my problem. last summer i wasnt really comfortable in my bathing suit. i only wore a bikini becuase everyone else did and i thought people would idk if i didnt so its hard to explain.. so ithink my friends talked about mebehind my back and stuff wehn i wore one because they are like skinny as anything and theyve never had problems with weight.
i dontknow what to do.. i mean i know i am trying to get skinny by summer so i will look good. but why would my friends do this? andhow do i talk to them about it beca use i dont want to just be like so you think i look bad in a bathing suit...
ill rate fvies thanks soo omuch
If you don't feel comfortable in a bikini then just don't wear one. There are tons of trendy styles out there right now (that are not bikinis) that you can wear instead.
The point is to wear something that flatters your figure and makes you feel comfortable. Of course you're going to look awful if you wear something that isn't made for your body. Anyone will. If you wear something flattering, it's going to look great and so are you. Bikini or not.
About your friends, it could have just been something as harmless as they thought the suit looked bad but didn't know how to tell you. If their ridicule wasn't blatant, then they probably meant no harm by it.
If it truely bothers you and you want to talk to them about it, then do it. If it's off in the past, forget about it. Girls will be girls. All you need to worry about is how YOU feel about the way you look because that's really all that matters. Most girls will find fault in you no matter what you have on anyway.

ahh what do i do??
You kick his ass is what you do.
He's obviously an insensitive prick or a stupid one. Or maybe both.
Either way, he's a waste of time and effort.

I'm a guy and just wondering - when I am being told of a situation or problem, and the person (usually my friend or girlfriend) does not ask for my advice, is it wrong if I do give my advice and thoughts on it? I find myself doing that too often, instead of just listening. Nobody has really said anything about it, but when I hear other people talk about it, I realize that about myself. So should I just try to listen and be there for them or is what I am doing ok? Thanks in advance, will rate.
Usually, you shouldn't give it unless it's asked for.
You CAN make an exception when the situation is serious and requires an intervention.
But most of the time, you can help by simply listening and letting the person know that you're there if any advice is needed.

I'm miserable with my boyfriend. I didn't really get to know him too well before I started going out with him, so now I have really found out what he is like. He is weird and obsessive over me, and he never leaves me alone. He always wants to kiss or make out and I really just want to be single again. :(
He is actually an okay person, but not to date, and I think by dating him, I've started to change him. He's stopped smoking and he does less drugs. He has a bad life and he said he would kill himself if he ever lost me. Now, I hate to be so pathetic and ask you guys this, but I really need help.
How can I tell him that I want out? Or that I just don't feel I'm ready for this relationship? I don't want to hurt his feelings, or for him to hate me, or worse of all, for him to commit suicide or go back to drugs. Please help!!
I think you need to tell him that you just aren't ready for a relationship right now. Nothing works better than the truth.
If you really believe that he would actually harm himself if you left him, you need to tell someone about that (a counselor at school or his parents). I know he might not want that and you might be afraid that it would make him hate you but wouldn't getting him help now beat taking the chance or staying in a relationship that you aren't ready for?

what do you do when your in a bad mood?
i have so much homework to do and its stressing me out and i just dont wanna do it anymore
I take a hot bath (preferably with aromatherapy bath beads). Just relax up to your shoulders and close your eyes. It totally relaxes you and transforms your entire mood.

SORRY IF ITS LONG. ILL RATE FOR GOOD ANSWERS!!
Okay, May is my 8th grade dance. I am really small and have trouble finding a dress. I can't even wear a 00 without it falling off. I'm 4'9 and 72lbs. I have no idea what kinda dress its supposed to be. Can you show me some examples? And tell me places to get them.
But hold/on honestly I don't want to go I mean my mom is in the "8th Grade Dance Committee" and she's doing alot for this dance. But I have no date and don't want to go without one. Question is should I go without one. [I honestly think its stupid]
Also with hair and make-up. I have tan [not really tan] skin. Brown eyes with gold tint. And brownish-reddish a little longer then my sholders hair. How should I get my hair did?
So here are my questions:
1. Places to get dresses?
2. Pictures of dresses?
3. Should I go without a date?
4. How should I get my hair/makeup done? [pictures]
AND Any other stuff I should know. Tips and such. THANK YOU!!
Since this is an 8th grade spring dance, I think you should stick to a simple, flirty look.
For a dress (look at the style. Any color would work as long as you stay away from dark colors):
http://a1216.g.akamai.net/f/1216/955/6h/images2.nordstrom.com/images/store/product/medium/30208.jpg
http://a1216.g.akamai.net/f/1216/955/6h/images2.nordstrom.com/images/store/product/medium/28040.jpg
http://a1216.g.akamai.net/f/1216/955/6h/images2.nordstrom.com/images/store/product/medium/167236.jpg
http://a1216.g.akamai.net/f/1216/955/6h/images2.nordstrom.com/images/store/product/medium/168009.jpg
Any of those styles and cuts would be appropriate. Now that it's getting closer to prom, there will be tons of dresses in various dept stores in these styles or near to them that you can buy.
For makeup, I'd stick to subtle tones to brighten your skin, hair, and eyes.
For your eyes:

In this type of look:

Those colors are easy to find in ANY brand.
For your lips, go with a color that's 1 shade at most deeper than your natural lip color. A barely there color will bring more attention to your eyes.
Do the same for your cheeks. A subtle color in maybe peach.
And for your hair, I'd keep it down in big, loose curls. It'll look fun and flirty and compliment the style of your dress.
----------
And going without a date is totally fine. Go with friends and have a great time

Ok im female and 17 and i got the worst belly ever its like im having a baby not like really fat but like theres a pile of fat that sticks out and im really embarassed i feel im putting on more and more weight i used to be slim and now im all Fat!!!!! i won't let my bf touch my belly when i see him its like a fear!!! is there anything i can do please help. x x x many thanx
Only doing sit ups isn't going to make your belly any smaller. There's no sense in working that area when there's a layer of fat covering it.
You need to do cardio to burn the fat. There are tons of dvds out there to buy for that. Anything from Tae Bo to 30 minute mile workouts. All of them work great if you commit to them.
Also, watch what you eat. Cut the number of times you eat fast food/snacks like cupcakes, chips, candy, etc/red meat/white breads/drink pop and so on. It's amazing how much weight you'll lose by doing that.
Be sure to eat breakfast each morning as well. It'll kick start your metabolism.
When you lose the weight, concentrate on keeping yourself toned with something like pilates or yoga. The Yoga Now program (4 DVDs and a meal plan) is amazing. It combines Yoga and cardio to tone and keep the fat off. You can get it at Target for around $30 to $35. I gain my weight exactly like you do and that's what I use to keep myself in shape

Ok, so um...here's the point:
My nipples look like their all bruised and they hurt when something lightly touches them.I know this is disgusting but I'm kinda worried about it. If this is any help, they didn't "grow" yet.
It could be alot of things. 1.) Just a normal result of your breasts beginning to grow 2.) Swollen glands or 3.) Some type of illness that you ought to get checked out.
If it doesn't clear up in a few days or begins to get worse, I'd call the doctor about it.

I picked up a free copy of AOL from Office Depot, one of those free for 90 day things. I installed it about two weeks ago, but uninstalled it after half an hour because I did not like it. According to every website and all my friends, you cannot remove AOL completely from your computer unless you reformat, and my dad has the Windows XP disk, so I do not want to tell him about my idiocy with AOL.
Two friends told me that if I did a System Restore, AOL would be gone. I've found System Restore on my computer, but I can't figure out how to work it.
Any tips or past experiences would be excellent.
System restore isn't going to completely remove any program from your computer. You should first try using the Add/Remove program option in your control panel.
To work it System Restore:
Choose "Restore my computer to an earlier time" and click next.
Then choose a date prior to the day you installed AOL. and click next. and so on. The program basically does the work for you. All you need to worry about is picking a date prior to two weeks ago.

hey! okay, i'm 15/f and i'm allowed to get my belly button pierced after our last cheerleading competition, which is around march 13. but, we are going to mexico for spring break on march 24, and i don't know if i should get it done before spring break or not. i want it when i'm laying on the beach and stuff but will the water in mexico and all the chlorine be bad for it? i don't know if i should get it done before or after mexico. any ideas? any info on belly button piercing would be great too!
Get it done after. That type of piercing takes awhile to heal but the chlorine will not irritate it.

I am having trouble with a hard class. I dont have a good grade. I always study for tests about 5 days in advance, and I study all day on those days. In addition to studying for tests, there are projects and essays and tons of other things due on the test day. I need tons of help. This is a history class. Tutors can't help because it's just memorizing, so please dont recommend one. I've been crying about every 3 days since january 5th. I see a therapist every week, but it doesnt seem to help. Im on medication, but that wont help either. I cant drop the class because its too late. I need so much help! Im crying uncontrollably right now because I have a test on Thursday that I have so much to know for! And the projects for that test arent done! I dont know what to do because I do this all the time and I cry all the time and therapy and medication wont help! I have other classes to worry about too. Please help me! I will be checking this every 30 minutes or so because I am so worried! please help me!!
Awww sweetie I'm sorry the class is so hard :( I've had a few just like that and I know how frustrating it is.
To help with my memorization, I made flash cards and separated each term or date I needed to learn into groups of 5. Then I read over each card 9 times (I read somewhere that after reading something to yourself for 9 times, the avg person can commit it to memory). Then I study the 5 until I can breeze through them. Then do the next 5 and so on.
After you finish each set of five, try re quizzing yourself on the previous 5 until you can answer most of them.
At the end of that, I keep the few cards that I have trouble recalling, and I study just those. It did wonders for me so I hope it works for you too.
It's going to be all about effectively managing your time though. Work on a section of your essay or project each night before or after you study so that you don't feel like you need to do everything at once. It'll all get done gradually.
I don't know how much this will help you but at least try it out and see what happens. Good luck

I think french kissing is really gross.. the whole open mouth part. I wouldn't mind making out though even though I haven't done either of them. Do you have to french kiss before you can make out with a guy? And what exactly do you do when you make out with someone? Where do you put your hands? How do you know when the time is right to start using your tongue? Any advice? I rate 5s.
You don't have to french kiss if you don't want to. You might change your mind in the future but until then, it's no big deal if you'd rather not do it.
Don't put so much thought into! It just happens when you're ready and truthfully, making out is different for everyone. You and your partner will figure out what you like best by practicing.
If you're worried about what he might or might not like as far as where your hands go, just stick to putting them on his shoulders first. Everything else will follow.

i was just wondering...my mom thinks thats she's supior to me. that i should have to earn the stuff i do but she should just get them without working for them.and everytime i try to get justice she can just say well im the adult, or your the kid or i get certin things that you dont because im a grown up.she also says yeah im unfair or yeah im a bitch and she also says i should have to do chores and she sounldn't. like she's a queen bee and im just one of her workers. im just wondering do you guys think she has the right to do that or do you think she's just being a mega bitch. oh yah she also lets my step dad do what ever he wants like perposly try to eyyoy me or get a toss every month and when i do bad stuff i should get in trouble and when he gets in trouble he souldnt beacause he's the adult.
again im just wondering, do agree with my mom or me
I agree with your mom babe.
Look, she's trying to teach you that things don't come for free. You DO have to work to earn things. That's life. So you're not in for a rude awakening when you do enter the real world, you might want to try listening to her for a change.
