Q: how can i look like this haha?




okay that might sound weird but i mean..

right now i have alot of black heads, not really pimples. i wash my face twice a day. my mom won't bring me to the dermatologist. i've tried all the acne and blackhead facewashes! i use cover up and bronzer. my face always seems to get oily, which just feels disgusting!

for my teeth: they're straight. but they're little. they're kind of white but i wish they were whiter. i've spent so much on like white strips, whitening trays and everything but they're not sparkling white like i wish they were!! my brother got them done at the dentist which cost ALOT but they're like the same color as mine and i want them whiter.

for my hair: i hate it. its a lighter brown. barely touches my boob. i feel like when i straighten it, it always gets kind of greasy and it never stays straight because i do have some layers!! i currently bought extensions but have to wait to wear them until my hair appointment because i'm dying my hair. i get bored with my hair way too easily. i usually just wear it down and straight or i'll just put my side bangs back.

what should i do with my makeup? i have like hazel eyes. sometimes they're like brown sometimes they're green/brown. it depends. i wear eyeliner on the top and bottom. i use mascara and have an eyelash curler (my eyelashes are already long) i want that bold look! i try to do the smokey eye, doesn't work! i dont know what to do? everytime i try to do my make up cool looking , it just looks straight up retarded!

clothes: oh man, i want a more "sophisticated" look. right now i have clothes from abercrombie, hollister but im 18 years old, i want to look more grown up and less "teenager-kid"ish. i do have some clothes from express but i don't know what to wear. hate the straight legged pants and really skinny ones at the bottom. don't wear high heels, i usually wear the slipper shoes you can get at target and recently bought some uggs!

well thank you so much i know this is alot but if you can help me, i will return the favor [:
I dont think I can give you too much advice on your acne, you're doing all the right things. I'm sure you know never to wash your face more than twice a day. Honestly, there's not much you can do for your teeth, don't drink a lot of coffee or smoke, it'll only make them less white. Look up makeup styles on google, you'll find tonsss of options especially videos on smokey eyes. I CAN help you with your clothes though :] Shop at Forver 21 = heaven. Literally, they have everything especially the style that you're going for. Also try Charlotte Russe and Mandees, even Macys. They are all fairly reasonable as far as prices go. Hope I helped :]

Q: what are the top three things on cosmetics that any girl should be allowed to SPLURGE onto?


examples like foundation and concealer and.. etc..

like that


top 3 please! THANKS
I would definetely say 1.foundation because it's hard to choose your exact shade at a Walgreens without trying it on. 2.Lipstick & 3.concealer(especially eye concealer). So you pretty much had the right idea. They're all on here for the same reason, you can't try them on at drugstores and the most important and happen to be the most expensive usually! You can get pretty good mascara and eyeliner at drugstores. Try Maybelline, their mascaras and eyeliners are great. Hope I helped :]

Q: What kind of sunglasses are these? And where can i get them?

http://k53.pbase.com/u41/chill105/large/26818490.BestofCornellbalcheyes.jpg
Those are aviators. You can pretty much get them anywhere but try Macys, Charlotte Russe, Mandees, stores like that. They are soo cute. Hope I helped :]

Q: has anyone ever used that "sun in" stuff or whatever its called you spray it on your hair and it supposively makes it lighter if you go and lay out in the sun, i was wondering if it works or not? cause i've heard it makes your hair look orangey, just wondering if anyones had any luck with it because i wanna try it.

THANKS :)
Please don't listen to the people below me. I myself have dark brown hair and have used Sun In a few times and I LOVE it! Everyone compliments me on how great my hair looks. Iit made my natural light brown/gold highligts really stand out. I wouldn't use it too much though because after you use it a few times, it naturally does its work in the sun without applying it so only a few times and use it sparingly! As far as it drying out your hair goes, honestly I haven't noticed a difference in my own hair but I suppose everyone's hair is different. Hope I helped :]

Q: Would a floor-length gown like this be too much: http://www.serendipityprom.com/PF20408.htm at a prom?
Not at all, that is a gorgeousss dress. I'm sure you'll look great :]

Q: i see girls with like chanel rings and earrigs and necklaces, where do you get them?
They are sold at most jewelery kiosks in the mall. I had a chanel ring (obviously fake) and it broke because i dropped it on the floor. I was really mad haha, it was so nice but they really aren't made that good since they are fake. It was $25 not bad, but it broke. I hope I helped :]

Q: what are the best girly perfumes i can get that smell amazing and fruity and sunny and just GOOD! im asking for one this xmas and these are my options. give me your reviews on them and maybe other perfumes you think are good.

- can can (paris hilton)
- daisy (marc jacobs)
- l0lli (its a "o" in the middle btw) pop (lancome. never smelled it but the bottle looked cute? lol)
- juicy couture (juicy couture)
- Escada Sunset Heat )Escada)
- with love (hillary duff)
- Brit Sheer (Burberry)
- covet (sarah jessica parker)
- ralph hot! (ralph lauren)
- princess (vera wang)
- diesel (that fuel for life thing.. it smells amazing.)
- delicious night (DKNY.. and i love love love it)

hm thats all i can remember at the moment. um so rate them and please keep in mind that this is for a 13 year old girl and i want my perfume to be not too sophisticated but like really nice smelling so everyone when you walk into the room's like "wow what smells so good?" and maybe somewhat fruity-ful cause i like those kinda scents. i dont go to beauty stores a lot so i only have a few samples from my teenvogue mag lol. btw i didnt put the perfumes in order of how i like them.
i have to say pretty much all these smells great. i really love diesel, ralph hot, vera wang,daisy, and can can. hope i helped :]

Q: best one out there? doesn't matter what the price is. thank you =)
i know they all say ceramic is the best, which it probably is but i use the remington wet 2 dry and it works really well. ive had it for like 2 years and its still in good condition and was only about 25 bucks, you can find it at any drug store. hope i helped :]

Q: i just need a vote. which do you think is more popular, or do you like more?


straight or curly


thankss :D

personally, i think that straight can be a little boring sometimes. it also depends on which looks better on you. i dont know about curly, but my hair is naturally wavy and sometimes i straighten it. but the other times i leave it wavy and all i do is straigten the ends(about 2 inches from the bottom. i get a lot of compliments and i think its the best look on me. maybe you should try it. hope i helped it :]

Q: i'm 15 and my parents won't let me get a nose ring. I don't blame them cus i wouldn' want my kid with one either. but i really do want one. lol sounds really crazy but since i can't get a real one is there a way you can get fake one's that look real?
dont get a fake one. they're just a waste of money and time. personally, i say go ahead and get your nose pierced! your parents will be pissed as hell but who cares? its all part of being a teenager. your young, do what u want

Q: I am going to a really fancy wedding soon. and i need to get a dress for it. It needs to be at least knee length and not as fancy as a prom dress or anything but still pretty close. does anyone know any stores that i might be able to fine in a mall that sells dresses like this. websites or photos would be great. budget is about $100. thanks!
nordstram, lord and taylor, macys, loehmanns, century 21, and any outlets you have near you. incase you didnt know...loehmanns and century 21 are really big stores where they sell a ton of designer things for less including dresses. hope i helped :]

Q: Hey. Well, just simply-would you all rather buy a Coach bag or a Marc Jacobs bag?

Here's a Marc Jacobs bag I'm comsidering. What do you think of it?

http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2939291/0~2376779~2374605~6007363~6007366~6007371?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=6007371&P=1

Thanks
srsly, everyone has a freaking coach bag! the marc jacobs is adorableee. hes a great designer and 288 is not a bad price. hope i helped :]

Q: 13/f

i really want to be prettier. i dont think i am pretty at all & i want to start wearing more make-up. i only wear mascara sometimes. i really want this guy to like me & i'd like for my make-up to look good & not like a piece of cake or a clown. here's my myspace. it's on private but you can see my default picture.

www.myspace.com/lauraloo54

what make-up do you think i would look good in? i really would appreciate the help. [:
okay seriously do not listen to these people. You DONT have to change yourself for someone else, but you really like this guy huh? So go to Sephora its in most malls, their make up is a little pricey, but believe me its so worth it. You can test the makeup before you even buy it. There's people to even help you too! I use Bareminerals and i LOVE it. It's completely natural.
