I have a lot of freakles or however you spell it and i hate them! is there a good coverup for evening our your face and covering freakles? And please don't tell me to just love the way i am. thanks in advance!

Well, you know... you really should love the way that you are. But anyways, a natural remedy for freckles that they used to use in the olden days when women were supposed to be pale and freckle-less(aka: never going out into the sun), just get some lemons, and rub them over your freckles twice a day. Within a week you should see them lighten, thus making them a lot easier to cover up with foundations.

Okay, so I desperately need to redecorate my room, and I have maybe $200 to do it tops, and I can't get furniture.

I have a navy blue shag carpet which is not leaving. I have a white ceiling, and sky blue walls, which I want to paint wither purple brown, or some other color (lol insert suggestion here).

I have white and silver and light wood (idk what kind) furniure, also not leaving.

Can you please help me figure out colors and websites to plan a perfect room.

Oh and also, I am making a huge (6 ft diameter/like 2 meters) floor pillow, so I have room to relax...Also, if you have a ny rganizational tips that I could use, that would be appreciated x2!!



You know, that's a toughie with that blue shag carpet in there. I remember I once had hideous red shag carpet in my room. We just tore it out and put hard wood floors in there... however it was quite costly and you might want to know what's under the carpet before you actually rip it up.

You could easily paint your walls and your cieling any color that you want, however if you go with purple or tan like you were thinking, it might not go with the carpet, in which case you might want to invest in a large rug to place over your carpet. Again, those can be costly as well.

It's really quite hard for me to tell you how to decorate your room. Each room should reflect the individual living in it. I don't know what styles you like(down-to-earth, chic, funky, country), and what colors you're more drawn to... but I can offer a few websites with great information for any style you are going for.

And please remember... while you have $200 at the moment, you don't have to get your whole room done with just that $200. Slowly acquire what you need for your room, even if it is more pricey rather than something that's not as great and will just fall apart in a couple years.
