Q: Does diet affect the amount of zits you have? Because it seems whenever I eat a lot of junk food I break out...=[

actually its just stress that causes the break outs but honestly i think food has something to do with it. if you eat a lot of sugary stuff that JUNK gets thru your blood and it can make your skin more oily.
but mostly zits are just caused by stresss!

Q: what are some good sites that have cute high heels for teens?

i'm not sure of the site but it's called
DEB

i love that store. you can order online or find a store around where you live!

also you can always try kohls sometimes; even target has some cute heels.

deb is the best place for dresses, cute tops/jeans, and shoes...accessories are pretty crazy there too!

Q: where can i get nice sunglasses? im a girl by the way. i dont want the cheapy plastic kind and im willing to spend up to $50. websites and stores would be much appreciated. : )

kohl's is good. So is abercrombie, hollister, and american eagle.Walmart is just a little cheap...mine broke!

this site

http://www.shopping.com/xPC-Ralph-Lauren-Ralph-Sunglasses-7518-S

or just search under google Sunglasses..
ebay might have some nice ones too! [yes, i know but ebay has some good deals]

Q: Is there anything that i may have around my house that i could put on my hair over night to make it really soft and silky tomarrow? you know how some peoples hair is so soft and shiny, but not oily looking, and when you touch it it feels soft? well is there anything i can put on my hair tonight that would make mine as close to that as possible in the morning? It can be like maybe some hair products, but i probabally wouldnt have them at home because i need it for tomarrow, or it could be any kind of food or food juices if you know what i mean. just anything and everything.

thanks =]

and what would i need to do to it in the morning and does it need to be wet or dry when i put it on and do i need to cover it with anything while i sleep.

kAy thanks

You could try this stuff called Anti-frizz from bedhead or some kind of soothing serum from paul mitchell or anything from walmart [smoothing serum or anti frizz works best] and just have your hair dry and rub it through your hair. Try using a leave-in conditioner. Or if you just have conditioner use a TINY TINY squirt and rub through your hair while it's wet.

Hope this helped some!

Q: Hi I have a very petite body and I just bought these beautiful really wide legged pants that fit nice and snug on my bum. Now my dilemma is what shirt should I pair with it, I dont think I should pair it with a wide top because of the pants, and alot of the the less wide topes arent dressy enough. Do you have any opinions?

try a tight-er shirt that comes about to the waist of the jeans.

Or

a cami or tank top with a cropped sweater or short sleve sweater thing.

Or

and tight-er shirt that's kind of long

yea a wider shirt wouldn't look right with the jeans...i'm the same way

petite ... but i don't have a bottom! lol

Hope this helped some.

Q: how do you put eyeliner (preferably pencil black eyeliner) on the inner part of your top eye lid??
it's like inside your top eye lid.

won't it smear against your eye?? i'm confused!

please help!

if you can, please show pictures!

Ok well i know some people who actually close their eye and shove the pencil literally into it..but i can't do that! You can try closing one eye taking your hand that you don't write with and like make it go wider [put your finger at the corner towards your head and pull lol] and just put it close to your lash line. It's kind of hard to explain...if your REALLY want i.m. me or e-mail me and i'll send you a diagram...lol. i was bored one day and my friend wanted to know.. =D

hope this helped;

Q: hey. 14/f. well, my 8th grade promotion is coming up in about a month. well, i had this one dress that was cream color and had some gold sequince on it. i decided that i wanted something diffrent. so we took it back, and i had been thinking the dresses with a solid color, then a lace overlay were really pretty. so today i went to the mall to look. i found one, that i like. it was cream colored, with a black lace overlay. so i bought it. then i got a really pretty perl (fake, lol) necklace and some cute black shoes. well, i get home and try it on again. now i kinda think i look like an old lady. :( i really want to look cute, but i think people will make fun of me. i got online and looked for one, but i just can't find one that really POPS out at me. its making me mad and sad. i know i still have like a month or whatever, but soon, prom dresses will be gone, and that usually means other cute dresses will be gone. i got online and looked, but couldn't find one. i looked at dillards, jcpenny, sears, nordstrom, urban outfitters, charlotte russe, and wet seal. but i can't seem to find one. so if anyone knows where i can get a cute fun lace overlay dress, then that would be AWESOME!!!i wear a size L or XL in dress. thanks so much!

DEB!

www.debshops.com

they have cute and really affordable dresses. I got my 8th grade formal dress there. [it's in about a month too!]

but they have cute dresses in like all sizes and shoes and accessories. i got my dress for like less than $50 i was going to get shoes too just didn't have my size at the mall. Anyway DEB is a great store

you can also ask your friends where they got theirs.

happy 8th grade promotion!

hmm! it depends on what hair color you have you want something that reflects you. but honestly i'd choose the blue one because it's really pretty! haha. but then again it's cute and i just love the design. but if not i'd choose the purple one. i don't really like the red one i don't know why. but i really like the blue!! i want it now!!!!haha

Q: i have about just-past-shoulder-length hair and a side bang. i am really tired of wearing it down all the time. i need some good hair styles. can u help?? i dont mind trying new things so just tell me some cute, possible, and kind easy things to do with my hair, please =]

Hey!
Well i have about the same length...it's a little longer of hair and i have my hair layered but i did have bangs. It depends if your hair is curly, straight, thick, or thin. I have thick wavy/curly hair and what i did is just pulled it up in a scrunchi and pinned my bangs up with it with bobby pins or a cute baratte. i also just put the bangs behind my ears...what you can also do is get extenstions but they are pretty expensive. i also pulled half of it up and just kept my bangs down. you can always try wearing it down curly or wavy or have a friend french-braid it or braid it. the braiding is a "little kiddish" but it's still cute. uh you can also just throw up your hair and whatever falls down just keep it that way. also you can use hairspray when trying to keep it out of your face. if your hair's thin use "GUTS" ya awkward name but it volumizes your hair and that can make your bangs seem longer so you can pull them back easier...well i hope i helped...if you have any other questions just e-mail me at xLiisten2urheart@aim.com or leave one in the inbox or email me at sgarrison@fuse.net

Q: Does anyone know a website where i can get rainbow flip flops for less? not ebay or overstock.com i tried those. for example, i get my ugg stuff at www.fleecefootwear.com its a place where uggs are really cheap. does anyone know?? thankss!!

I'm sorry i don't know of any site on the top of my head but you can always look at outlet shops or even walmart...i kno but they are cheap. i think i saw some at aeropostle for like 10 dollars. but you can always go to www.shoes.com that's where i got my etnies for only 40 dollars!!!!! and they ship within like 2-5 days. i got mine 2 days after i ordered them. or go to www.dogpile.com and search it!

*hope you find it!*

Q: heyy ok i need to get a tan like really bad whats the fastest way to get one (no fake tans please!) if i go outside in the sun do i wear sunscreen? if so do i wear a lot of a little? or should i use tanning oil? ill rate 5's! please help!

Ok if you want a tan just put a 10-15spf and hang out in the sun. The more you move you'll get it all around. But cover you face with a 20spf because your face burns really easily. But after your done mayb for like a hour come in and reaplly and put some aloe spray or gel overtop for one it relieves burn spots and two it absorbs SOME sun and let's your skin be nice and tan. Don't use tanning oil. Well that's my opinon to me it's just not worth it...sunscreen is cheaper anyways. but if you just lay out in the sun becareful and be sure to flip over every 15-30 min. well good luck
and happy summer!!!

Q: hey, what are some really good ceremic hair straighteners? like what brands? and im not talking about an ok job, im talking a drastic change from like poofy to smooth straight and silky. it would be great if you could answer with straighteners under 40 dollars? thanks, ill rate fives for any ideas.

Just so you know i have CURLY, POOFY, and THICK! so i know exactly how to straighten my hair :) ; well i would first buy a smoother spray and spray it all over your hair. Then just like take a normal 20-50 dollar straightener and take small sections and straighten it by pieces. You want to be careful because you don't want to fry your hair cuz that causes really bad damage. You also could get a straightener with either Conair on really any other brand that has adjustable heat nobs. But other than that when you get out of the shower just take a brush and hold the dryer about an inch to 2 inches from the brush and just brush it straight. It might be a little fizzy but you can use Treseme fizz away :)

Good Luck!!!
