I don't read what the other people wrote above me.
K.
About your acne, if you've had acne for quite a while, I would suggest asking your parents to set up and appointment and see if you need any special creams etc.
If that's too much of work, I would suggest Clean & Clear Face Scrub.. but not to much otherwise it will dry out your skin. Also, try Neutrogena Deep Clean Cream Clenser, I use it religiously. lol.
Because it's basically "summer" don't forget to constantly lotion up your skin with a SPF of ATLEAST 15 to protect your skin.
If you need fashion advice, like clothes etc, please feel free to contact me.
alittleironicx answered Thursday June 9 2005, 8:33 pm: I have the same problem - I'm very insecure about myself because I am overweight, and most of my friends are drop dead gorgeous. You may not be as beautiful as some other girls, but it's all about confidence. Right now I am getting help for self esteem and confidence. If your having that much trouble being yourself, you might need to see someone. Don't worry it's just a suggestion from personal experience, but my problems may be more serious. My favorite quote is "If a woman has confidence, she's sexy". Unfortunatly there is nothing you can do if guys still aren't all over you or attracted to you. Like other people said, maybe try some acne medicine. I use proactiv and my skin is fine. I think it's good your thin, that's a start. Just try to be yourself the best you can. I learned that trying to impress someone or becoming something your not, in the long run, it's not the right idea. I also learned that confidence DOES go a long way. If you don't have the looks, make sure you bring your personality out the best you can. If you can't impress people from the outside, you have to give it your all from inside and your personality has to shine. If you need anything else, let me know. I know exactly where your coming from though, and a lot of girls experience things like that [ alittleironicx's advice column | Ask alittleironicx A Question ]
LiLReBeL6907 answered Thursday June 9 2005, 8:03 pm: First off, focus on your acne. If you are having break-outs use Clean & Clear Face Scrub at night to scrub away dead skin cells that make your skin look dull. Then apply a masque, try Queen Helene's Mint Masque, only on each of the pimples on your face. This will dry out the pimple so only apply it to the pimples, NOT your whole face or your face will be really dry in the morning. Keep continuing this daily routine at night and you will see dramatic results. If your skin is dry and doesn't get oily then you shouldn't use the Masque method. Instead of using a masque at night, apply a blemish/acne medication that moisturizes, like Clean and Clear Invisible Blemish Treatment. It contains salicylic acid which will fight break-outs while you sleep. When you wake up in the morning wash your face with a gentle wash and scrub, and DO NOT apply a facial moisturizer to your face after you wash it if you have oily skin. That will make it even worse! Only use a facial moisturizer if your skin is dry. After washing your face apply a thin layer of foundation (Cover Girl Tru-Blend is perfect. It has 24 different shades so you can find the perfect match to your skin color). If your skin is oily use a powder foundation. If your skin is dry use liquid foundation. If you have combination skin, use liquid first then lightly apply powder after it and gently rub in. Next apply a concealor to any zits that are still visible. I would try a concealor stick, because liquid concealor rubs off easily and doesn't cover as well. You can also use concealor for under-eye to help brighten your eyes. Dab one or two dots under your eyes and everywhere else you need to apply it and lightly rub it in. Next put on eye shadow. If your lids get really oily, try this method. First dab concealor on your lids and rub in completely. This sets as a base so your eyeshadow stays on longer. Next apply your eyeshadow. I would try Maybelline Cool Effect Eyeshadow Sticks, because it comes in many colors and stays on tremendously long. Pick your shade of eyeshadow depending on your outfit. If you like pastels, pick out a pastel colored eyeshadow that will match your outfit. Remember if you have fair skin, NEVER go for dark colored eyeshadow. It only makes your skin look more pale. If your cheeks are naturally pink, DO NOT use blush. If they aren't naturally pink then try something subtle, like a powder bronzer. This will brighten up your face. Try Bonnebell Glimmer Bronzer. Shake the powder onto the lid then pour it back into the container. Then dab your finger over the lid and put one or two dots of the shimmer on the apples of your cheeks. Then gently rub in. To make your eyes stand out even more use eyeliner. I would go for an eyeliner that is waterproof. Try using Revlon 16-hour Stay Eyeliner in Ivory. It goes on smooth and lasts really long. Apply the eyeliner on your lower lid only. Putting eyeliner all the way around your eye will accent them WAY too much and will make you look overdone. After applying eyeliner move on to mascara. Try Maybelline Blackest of Black. It doesn't clump or smudge. Try practicing your new style and routine of make-up ahead of time that way you can get used to the new methods. I hope this helps. If you need any more advice you can ask me anytime. Good luck! Remember you are beautiful no matter how you look on the outside, so just be yourself and you will be just fine. ~Sherah [ LiLReBeL6907's advice column | Ask LiLReBeL6907 A Question ]

PrincessAva answered Thursday June 9 2005, 7:09 pm: For your acne, i would recomend Clean and clear bursting beads mornign wash and then the morning glow lotion. It gives you face a glow. Then put on a foundation as close as possible to your skin color. Rub it in good with a foundation brush. Then out cover up on your acne spots. Rub it in the foundation spots. Make sure it blends in well. The find a bright but not to bright, in the middle of dark and light, blush, focus the color more above then you would usually put you blush on. Then take a darker sgade of pink or a light brown. Put it under the blush then blend it toghter. This will empasize your cheek bones. Then get a dark brown or a dark tope color eye liner. Put it on the inside of bottem lid and the top lid. The on the top lid put a thin line of a black eyeliner right above your eyelashes. Then take a dark color eye shadow. Put it in the crease of your eye and once again blend. Then take a samon color pink and put it on the bottom part of the lid. Then smooth the crease color and the samon color together, so it will look more naturual. Then on the top part of the lid, focus mainly with a shimmer(preferably a pink color).Also spread some of the pink shimmer under the bottom of the eye. Now to the lips. Take a nutral color like a light pink or an orangy pink. Rub it on the lips with a thin lip stick brush. Then take a darker shade like a maroon color. Put dots of it on you lips then take the lipstick brush and blend together it should give a very grown up shade that will impress. Then get some of your favorite lip gloss and put it on over the lipstick on the middle part of the top and all over the bottom.
Now for your hair. Depending on what kind of hair you have, i would recomend straightening it. When straighteniong it, use ION straightening formula. It gives it a shiny look. But dont spray it on your hair. Spray it on your hands and rub together for 15 seconds. then hand comb into all of your hair. Now make shure the part is to the side not the middle. This may take awhile alltogether. But it will be worht it
good luck and hope i helped you
feel free to contact me if u have any questions
KaTiE_LyNn answered Thursday June 9 2005, 5:55 pm: well if your acne makes you less confident, i suggest getting something like proactiv. being really skinny isn't too bad. mostly, be confident in yourself. guys notice you when you're confident. don't feel bad about the way you look. just do things that would boost your confidence. good personality is a major plus.
