ask mackenzie





I did not write the book of love,
and I do not claim to be full of wisdom.

I sure do make mistakes,
but I live and learn!

I try to let no one come to me,
without leaving happier. [:



"Exert your talents,
and distinguish yourself.
Don't even think about
retiring from the World,
until the World will be
sorry that you retire!"

♥[?]♥ ok.....well this boy asked me out, and i dont like him, i like some one else! but i dont know how 2 tell him that i dont like him.
HELP ME!!!!! plz!
younggrandma is absolutely right: You do NOT need to provide him a reason if you don't want to. You don't owe him anything of the sort. If you don't like this guy, a simple "No" will do it. However, there ARE ways of letting him down a BIT more gingerly. However, it really won't matter WHAT you say, because if this guy truly likes you.. he will be hurt no matter WHAT the reason, ya know? Why not be completely honest, and tell him that you're interested in someone else? Or you don't even have to say that necessarily. Just tell him that you're flattered and you appreciate his offer, but you simply do not think of him in the same light. Then remind him that you are telling him no because a one sided relationship is unfair and pointless. I mean, what's the point in giving your heart away to someone who isn't willing to give you theirs, ya know?? If you tell him this, I'm shore he will understand. It's a perfectly appropriate and gentle reply. :]

♥[?]♥ 13/f
..so, i wanted to no..
wat kind of makeup do models and actors/actresses wear??
b/c i mean, i've always wanted to have that look, its kinda lik a glow..
..thanks
..will rate high!
They wear foundation and eye shadow priced into the hundreds. If you want the make up that celebrities wear, you have to be willing to kiss college goodbye.




Now, if you want some more affordable brands, I have some suggestions.




****FOR FOUNDATION:

I use Covergirl, and I couldn't be more satisfied with it!! It's great, at a good price, and comes in 3958625869 shades, so you're BOUND to find one to fit your skin tone!!!


Here's a link of my exact product:
http://www.walgreens.com/store/pickcolor.jsp?CATID=100293&navAction=push&navCount=4&id=prod1354553&skuid=sku1354563


Now, that's kind of a bad example as far as the shades go. I use the "Natural Biege", but it's NOWHERE NEAR as dark as it is in the photo.



Here is a better link of the shades it offers:
http://covergirl.com/cgcollection/face/foundation/clean1.jhtml





****FOR EYELINER:

I think the two best brands of eye liner out there are "Meryl Norman" and "Beautique". "Meryl Norman", which can only be purchased at "The Meryl Norman Cosmetic Studios", is pricey [typically $8.50 - $15.00], but it REALLY IS good stuff. It goes on wonderfully, and stays on all day! On the other hand... I happen to think that "Beautique" is INCREDIBLE!! However, I've ONLY seen "Beautique" at "Sally's". Good news though, it's only .99 cents. TRUST ME.. I would NEVER EVER EVER buy crap make up!!! I get only the best, so please, please, please, please DON'T let this dollar price throw you off - you'd be cheating yourself out of the best product out there!! I'd *PREFER* "Beautique" out of ANY other brand of eye liner on the market!! I could easily go out and buy a $15.00 pencil, but I'd RATHER get "Beautique"! "Beautique" glides on smoothly and REALLY LASTS ALLLLL DAY!!! I CAN NOT promote this item enough!! And if you still have doubts... for only .99 cents.. it's worth a shot!!






****FOR MASCARA:

I recommend Maybelline's 'XXL'! It always looks fantastic on me! It adds GREAT volume and lifts to curl! Another good brand, which I also use [I use two at one time] is Maybelline's 'Sky High Curves'! LOVE EM!





And I'm not shore what else you're looking for, but if you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask! :D

♥[?]♥ ok this is gonna sound gross but i get REALLY bad pit stains and they are so embarassing! does any1 know any deoterant that gets rid of them besides secret b/c im alergic to that and dove b/c it doesnt work either...!

i'll rate all 5's to good answers!
This is a big problem for me also, so I know how you feel; I've been there, and it's not good. I reccommend using an antiperspirant deodorant [such as Suave], followed by regular baby powder. The antiperspirant helps to reduce sweating, or at least is said to, but in our case... never does. Then the baby powder will close the pores of your under arm -- more or less trapping the sweat in, so to speak. Honestly, this almost ALWAYS works for me, but there *ARE* days when it's simply not good enough, and that can be a pain in the butt, so I usually make a point of carrying some sort of jacket. Hearing that, there's this product people are always talking about on this site [but I believe that's from "Monkey See, Monkey Do"], but it's even advertised on television. It's called CertainDri. Now, they say it can be purchased at Wal-greens, RiteAid, CVS, and Walmart, however, EVERY SINGLE TIME I've been to the store looking for it, I've never seen it on the shelves. Naturally, this leads me to ask an employee where I can find it, and they *always* tell me they've NEVER heard of it, and they do not carry the product... which just leaves you speechless and with a feeling of, 'what now?' If the problem persists, perhaps you should consult a physician, who can supply you with proper medication. Also, he can give you shots that kind of close up your pores, so sweating never really happens again. I'm not shore if that's an option for you, but I recommend asking him for more information. But whatever you decide to do, goodluck from someone who knows EXACTLY what you're going through!!

♥[?]♥ what is the falling hearts code for myspace?

There's actually LOTS to do when you REALLY think about it:


--- Laserquest.
--- Paintballing.
--- Park.
--- Fair.
--- Bowling.
--- Ice Skating.
--- Roller rink.
--- Go-Karting.
--- Fashion Shows.

--- Switch it up a bit, and go to a DRIVE IN movie.
--- OR how about getting a camera and MAKING a little movie.
--- Take pictures.
--- Have posed photoshoots.
--- Beach.
--- Library.
--- Concerts.
--- Paint.
--- Cook.
--- Nintendo.
--- Lift weights together.
--- Hit the mall, and go into department stores, and just try on all the dresses!
--- Go swimming.
--- Draw.
--- Write four part stoRies!! Like.. each one of you sit down with a pencil and piece of paper and each write the beginning of a story foR like 5 minutes... then trade papers.. so everyone has a chance to add on to the others, ya know??
--- Do Karaoke.
--- Tell jokes.
--- Play board/card games.
--- Grab some walkie talkies, and run around pretending to be dectectives!!! If you don't have walkie talkies... use cordless telephones!! Me and my brothers [16, 18, 26] do this all the time!! hahahaha!!!


Just be creative and open minded!! Hope this helps!! :D

I'm shore this is enough, for now at least. :D

♥[?]♥ well i've had this cold for a week it's geting worse. i want to feel better by next week, any help
i will rate high
striperella
Well, colds generally last 2-3 weeks, so I think you might be able to kill it by next week. I don't really know any tips, other than the obvious. Just be shore to drink PLENTY of fluids [water is *definitely best], take your medication, and keep tissues on hand. Also, consume a lot of hot foods, soup is ideal - hot foods diminish the 'stuffyness' in your nose. And another thing, it's no secret that getting a sufficent amount of sleep will speed up the healing process. Hopefully this has been of some use to you!! :D

♥[?]♥ okay so when i wake up my eye gets like really weird.. my eyelid looks swollen but its not swollen and i dont have pink eye ..i get this about every morning and it gets so annoying because one eye looks smaller than the other! whats wrong and what do i do?!

oh and this has been happened since this summer but its been on and off
I know you've been told this a few times already, but it very well could be allergies. Could be something in the air, could be a fragrant around your home, or even a reaction to any eye make up you might be wearing, or wore the day before. Benadryl should be just the ticket. And if not, try Advil, because Advil is an antiinflamatory [which means it will stop the swelling]. If this continues into the new season or begins to hurt, I suggest seeking a medical opinion from a trained professional. :]

♥[?]♥ how do you make out
It's difficult to tell you HOW to kiss, but I found a website that thinks it's capable of doing JUST that: http://www.virtualkiss.com/kissingschool/


♥[?]♥ I just did a survey and I seriously don't know...what the heck does 'cut some rug' mean? The question was "would you cut some rug with me?". Help please.

To 'cut some rug' means to dance. I looked up a dictionary definition to provide you with some more reassurance:


"To move rhythmically to music, using patterns of steps or gestures".

♥[?]♥ what is a good women deatarent (sp) that leaves you dry for atleast a couple of hours and keeps odor away? thank you
Anything that has antiperspirant, really. Personally, I use Suave and Secret - and they do me fine. [:

♥[?]♥ Lets say my period is normal .. well I had it on Aug. 9 of this year and finished Aug. 16th would that mean I would get it again a month from when I started or a month from when it finished? Thankss and what days should i be concerned that its close?
You should expect it around the 9th. Of course, this can be different for everyone. Often times you will get your cycle on the same day of each month. However, this isn't always the case. You really should be prepared from 28-31 days FROM August 9th. So, I guess that would Be September 7-11th or so. =]
