find a best friend
bff

i want the girly things… like shopping and talking… but i dont want the typical girl relationship of shopping at American eagle and watching desperate housewives. i want to find someone that inspires me to be different…someone to make clothes/draw/take pictures/get piercings/etc with. I want the girl that gets along better with boys, that wont freak out if we dont hang out, and is missing the same thing that im missing right now (best friend). im me if youre interested (starlitserenity4). Im in NC



clear up my acne
solution

My solution is for people like me. Everything here is available without a perscription.

WHAT IM LIKE
-female
-minor to medium acne
-acne related to cycle (I notice mine completely clears up the day or two before my period starts. from that point after my period starts, im generally ok for a week with no acne, then the second week i get a few and into the third and fourth week it gets really bad)
-problem related to picking, popping, poking, pressing, pushing and the time it takes to heal. My skin clears up around my period because its also healing faster and i dont have a chance to screw it up so much.

SOLUTION:
-first dont do any of those p words above
-drinking a glass of soy milk each day tends to minimize the breakouts for my whole cycle. it might be related to the plant estrogens in soy? another added side affect is it also helps me be less depressed in general (avoiding major breakdowns and stress may be part of helping the acne?)
-i shower in the morning daily and use olay cleansing pads for combination skin:

these are amazing for my skin. I make sure to lather the cloth until its really foamy and then I DO NOT PRESS HARD. I only use the soft side of the cloth and use one finger in a small circular motion so I dont press to hard. While Im doing this I feel for any problem spots. When Im done I rinse my face with cold water (just enough to give me a shiver and then I take my face out of the stream and turn it back to hot).
-When I get out of the shower, I put a small amount of Clean and Clear 10% benzoyl peroxide on the problem spots.
-I put on Clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel:

- I put on make up as normal. I use clinique perfectly real foundation:

- I also use Cliniques acne solution stick (i recommend this!) to cover the red marks:

Stopping the p-habit is critical. The OLAY cleansing clothes really improve your skin even after the first use. I would say they are the most important part. I would say second in importance is the clinique acne solution stick for covering existing acne and the benzoyl peroxide for preventing future acne. The kind of moisturizer or make up you use probably isnt so important.

Dont do any of these things in excess. Try to establish a healthy regimine. More is not better. Wash your face once a day, dont go crazy with any of the products above. Use small amounts.



Dye my hair black
black hair is more fun than brunette hair

if your eyebrows are naturally dark brown/almost black but your hair is medium brown—take the leap, dying your hair black will turn out alright!
