I have mild acne and following my face wash, i use a combination of the following:
Toner;
Moisturizer;
Benzoyl Peroxide; and
Differin gel at night.
I%26#039;m wondering what is the best order to apply these products.|||1. Benzoyl Peroxide
2. Toner
3. Moisturizer (Daytime)/Differin Gel (Nightime)
I don%26#039;t know if you really need both the toner and the peroxide. Be careful not to overdo, as you can dry your skin out too much without improving the acne.

What are the common stressed related skin allergies of Filipinos?
I have a skin disease that when I get stressed, It forms in my hands. They are small, round clumps and watery inside and very itchy too. What is this?|||Basically this is just a form of eczema or dermatitis. An underlying sensitivity or allergy can be the root of the problem. You don%26#039;t say if you are an allergy sufferer or not.
Stress can aggravate any medical condition. Try switching to hypoallergenic soaps and laundry products to see if this helps.

How do you get rid of oily skin without the expense of products?
I can%26#039;t really go to the market and buy products because my family is kind of tight in money.|||All the previous answers are things to try, toner will close your pores after cleansing, witches hazel will dry your skin a bit and close your pores but is pretty hard on the skin and your facial skin may become very sensitive very quickly. There are some really inexpensive facial cleansers at say Walgreen%26#039;s such as Deep Clean by Neutrogena. However, if you have zero money, have teenager skin and you don%26#039;t want acne scars --go this route--use a really mild soap on your face like Dove maybe, just using your clean hands and warm water. Then dab very well with vinegar. It will take the oil off your face and clean and balance your pores. It will sting but really be soft and smooth after. For a facial mask for oily skin do what the old-time fashion models once did--take oatmeal and mix with milk (you can use water but I like milk for the skin). You can use it as a mask right away but I like it to sit overnight in the refrigerator overnight--makes the mix softer. Do not scrub your face with this oatmeal mixture as it is just to be dabbed on the face, let it dry a bit and keep building it up on your face. It will draw the oil off your face. The oatmeal is not round and soft really, so do not scrub your face with this mask. Let it dry and remove with warm water, then vinegar to balance the skin. Once again, if you have any money at all just go study the facial masks at like Walgreens and you%26#039;re looking for the mud type masks for oily skin. The Walgreens products are like 2-3 dollars only. But, the oatmeal mask and vinegar toner are both good any time and should be mixed in anyway, just to remove oils and costs down over the years..|||Drink more water to help clean out toxins that are in your pores and use inexpensive oil blotting sheets through out the day.|||I use clean and clear daily oil strips.
They don%26#039;t smudge your make up, and take the shine off your face.
You can get them at Wal-Mart for like, 4 Dollars|||use lemon and honey as face mask twice a week|||Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and eating enough Vitamin C everyday. These things flush out toxins in your body and are great for your skin! Good luck!|||Just by Toner or Witches Hazel|||The best way? quite honestly, modify your diet. Drink lots of water, and eat veggies and fruits. I did this awhile ago, and my skin cleared up, my face wasn%26#039;t as oily.
btw--don%26#039;t fret about oily skin; even though I%26#039;m a smoker, people tell me I look 1/2 my age. ;) There is a tremendous upside to oily skin.
An astringent can help with the oily skin, and face powder later in the day when you can%26#039;t carry the astringent with you, like at school.|||Go buy a $ 1.50 bottle of rubbing alchol and after your shower use a Cotton ball an apply it on the oily spots|||Ah! Don%26#039;t use straight rubbing alcohol on your skin. You%26#039;ll go from oily to super dry, tight, and irritated. Instead, try buying a bottle of Witch Hazel from your local market or drugstore. This should be in the First Aid section. It%26#039;s all-natural, not as drying as alcohol, yet works wonders on oily skin and breakouts. It even smells pretty darn nice (and it%26#039;s a lot less expensive than those pricey toners).
I hope this helps you!

How do I make really crispy "skin-on" fried chicken without a deep fat fryer?
Almost every recipe I see requires a deep fat fryer. I don%26#039;t want to buy one since I would practically never use it except for fried chicken. I do have an electric skillet that is approximately 1 inch deep and can heat up to 400 degrees. No problem for me to leave the skin on, as it%26#039;s my favorite part (just about - and in moderation!).|||Just use one of your deep kitchen pots! It will do fine, that%26#039;s what I use. It will become a deep fryer!|||Marge-
I have never used a Deep Fryer for my chicken. However, I do use a large Iron Skillet filled about 1/2 way with Canola Oil.
My Granny, tought me the ol%26#039; Okie way. Entire family is from Oklahoma. We just salt the chicken, then mix up more Salt, in some flour with black pepper, then dredge the chicken in that and away we go to the skillet. Just set your heat on the stove to about Med-High and let the oil get good and hot before you place the chicken into the skillet. The Chicken will cool the oil off as you load the skillet, just be sure to not overload the skillet, about 6 to 8 pieces of Chicken per skillet is my rule of thumb.
With the Thighs and Breasts, be sure to chek them with a meat fork after you turn them over for the second time, you want to be sure they are cooking to the bones. When the juice runs clear, they are done. Just be sure you let the stove do the work, and plan on about 30 to 40 minutes cook time.
Good Luck!|||i dont know about skin on but for my kids i do potatoe chip chicken. take boneless chicken breast strips, and dip into egg wash. in a 1 gallon ziplock bag crush chips of your choice into very small pieces. spay a cookie sheet with evoo spray ( healthier than vegetable oil) roll or shake the chicken in the chips and bake until chicken is cooked. wait until chicken slides of easily to flip or you%26#039;ll lose all you chips, i use tongs to flip. serve with sauce to go with chips. for a healthier option use tortilla chips with salsa to dip.|||Just fry it in your skillet with oil half way up on the chicken. Turn it over when the first side is browned. My mom and grandmotehr never used a deep fat fryer, ever and they made fried chicken all the time. I believe Alton Brown did the same on his show GOOD EATS.|||The best way I have found to do this is to go to the local grocery store and find a product called Oven Fry. There are different flavors for chicken and pork I think. Follow directions on the box and enjoy some awesome crispy oven fried chicken.|||Try this...no frying; crispy chicken. Flour and your favorite spices. Mix. Coat chicken well, place skin side down on a baking sheet; and bake @ 400* for about 1/2 hour; turn and bake for another 1/2 hour or so. Spray pan with cooking oil(Pam). Delicious.|||Tekkaman knows how to pan-fry the birds!

How do you get perfect and creamier skin from head to toe?
I am a black teen girl (my skin is not chocolate dark, it is brown) and I want to know how to get your skin flawless and lighter/creamier/purer! I get white heads on my face often, I have dark circles under eyes, I have really small bumps the color of my skin on my face, My skin can either be dry or greasy/oily and I have large pores! Can you help me achieve perfect skin to die for? Should I wear sunscreen even though I am not white(not to be racist)? If so what type of sunscreen! Is there a daily regime I should do! Please help! I%26#039;ve always wanted great skin!|||EVERYONE needs sunscreen! UV rays are harmful to any skin type.
Check out a pore-reducing cleanser or face mask make for your skin type. Once I find a brand I like, I get multiple types so I can use which ever I need for that day.
Drink a lot of water (64-80 oz/day) and you%26#039;ll see results within a few weeks (or less).
If you%26#039;re young, your skin is going to change anyway. Stay away from future scarring by not picking at anything.
Pay attention to what you put near your face: are your pillow cases clean? Do you lean on your palm? Do you talk with your chin on the phone?
For the circles, make sure you get your sleep. Stick to a schedule and get at least 7 hours a night. If you%26#039;re a teen, you need more.
If you don%26#039;t see a difference after all that - and you must stick to it - then ask a dermatologist. I think you%26#039;re gonna look great!|||sunscreen is the most important thing you could do for your skin. and moisturizer. non-drying cleanser. use a clean pillowcase or a clean towel over ur pillow everynight.. use rice papers or those thing blotting tissue to control oil. dont use astringents or anything harsh like that. ur skin may never be perfect and creamy but it can get a lot better, i got skin issues and i really like aveeno products. their gentle and calming to my skin that can be bumpy and irritated. oh yeah and hands off ur face no matter what, get use to it|||I think the best you can do is to find a recomended estetician in your area, and go in for a full facial. She will know a lot about this stuff, and you can talk to her as she cleanses your face. I have large pores too, and the facials help me a lot.
And the UV block still makes sense, whites don%26#039;t have a monopoly on wrinkles and cancer ;)|||wash and exfoliate your skin every single day. wash your face 2-3 times daily. use a scrub such as st.ives that has the little beads in it. this will help to eliminate the whiteheads. wash with a soap such a dove. apply ambi fade cream around your eyes and on any blemishes. use fair and white lotion. this product will helpyour skin get clearer and lighter. apply a product sunscreen daily even in the winter and when the sun isn%26#039;t out. drink plenty of water. ( i am a black female as well and i know exactly what you are talking about, iv%26#039;e also dealt with all of your skincare problems)|||From all of the imperfections you have stated about your skin, I would believe that you need to address each with a different solution.

He/she will help you find the right creams and treatments to reduce the tougher things like deep %26quot;bumps%26quot; under the skin, which i believe to be ingrown zits. After the more difficult things are addressed you can start with the basic essentials which are: Exfoliating, Facial Scrubs, Toning %26amp; moisturising. For the moisturising you can also have a 2 in 1 sunscreen and moisturiser. From your description I gather you have oily skin so you need to keep this in mind when buying your skin products to find ones that are suitable.
I must add that beauty shines from within. So no matter how much creams you slap on and how many dermatologists you visit, you need to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, drink plenty of water and EXERCISE!
I hope this helps, goodluck|||my recommendation is that you use exfoliating scrub in the shower that really softens your skin and makes it really smooth it scrubs the dead skin cells away so you don%26#039;t have different colour patches of skin. if not see a dermatologist, BTW sunscreen is not for white ppl lol its so that you don%26#039;t get sun burn which leads to cancer any body can get sun burnt but not as quick as others trust me ull look fab !!! b4 you go to bed you should also put some really thick moisturising cream, then wear
woolly socks and clothes that will keep you really warm when you sleep and when you sleep the warmth of your body should really suck in the moisturiser plus sunscreen should always be spf 15+ even better spf 30+ and higher :)

What do you recommend to lighten your skin?
I%26#039;m not talking like Michael Jackson white. I%26#039;m kinda brown but I want to be a lighter shade of brown. Is there anything out there for that.|||Be brown and proud! Brown is beautiful.|||I agree with the previous answer but if you want it, to be happy, then go... i support you. I suggest %26quot;Glutathion%26quot;. It has sooo many advantages. It%26#039;s an antioxidant, and has potentially widespread health benefits. One of the advantages is its whitening benefits. Here in the Philippines, the brand is Vaniderm, another is Metathion. I suggest 500mg of Glutathion. Drink once per day. Alot of filipinos already taken it and did get lighter skin. It cost $30 here, i dont know there. $30 already is a 30-day contumption. You%26#039;ll be amazed with the benefits. Your body will become more healthy, even those with hepatitis took it and now they dont have hepatitis anymore, your skin will be glowing healthy, even the pimples will disappear, in fact, all your health problems will disappear. And your skin will gradually become lighter. And not to a skin like Michael Jackson. Don%26#039;t worry. Nobody here become as white as he is unless they did bleaching chemicals which are harmful to the skin.
Glutathion is already in our bodies and cells in the first place. But supplementing it will make our body more healthy. And skin more bright and glowing.

What is the best skin care products for oily skin?
I%26#039;m about to go to the store and I want to know what skin care products work best for oily skin.
Around my mouth my skin is very dry, though, so if you know of a good moisturizer that would be great too.|||Ok... I know it sounds weird... but here is my routine...
I went out and bought a cleanser that advertises that it %26quot;fights oil.%26quot; I find that alot of products advertise that they %26quot;won%26#039;t dry you out%26quot; and %26quot;get rid of dead skin.%26quot; But I guess oily skin isn%26#039;t that common, because I need some SERIOUS help. Fortunately, I don%26#039;t get too many breakouts or blemishes, I get so shiny during the day, that I can wipe my fingers across my forehead, and my fingers will be shiny! I%26#039;ve recently been doing something odd though... but it seems to be working,
At night before bed, I just use the cleanser that I bought (I buy a different one every time, to see which one I like - but my favorite so far is Biore%26#039;s %26quot;ICE CLEANSER%26quot; or %26quot;shine control%26quot; - they%26#039;re in green bottles with a pump on the top). I get dry around the mouth and corners of my nose too - I just rub some moisturizer ON THOSE AREAS. Moisturizer tends to make me even more oily, and I have read online many times, that it%26#039;s best to only use a minimal amount, on areas that NEED it. I%26#039;ve been experimenting with an uncommon product lately though. Toothpaste. Just dab it on any blemishes you may have.
BUT in the daytime, like when getting ready for work (just ONCE a day)... I wash my face with toothpaste... I know, I can picture your face. It%26#039;s weird. But I suggest that you try it at least once. Just rub it on, avoiding your eyes, and try to build up a lather. Then, without water, use a small amount of your face soap and wash it off. Rinse. It is the coolest feeling ever. It makes your skin feel GREAT. Don%26#039;t do it too often though, because it can dry you out too much. But seriously, even if you don%26#039;t pick this as best answer TRY IT TRY IT TRY IT. It%26#039;s awesome.
I%26#039;ve had oily skin forever. And nothing helps me. Even things like toners and astringent seem to make it worse, and I dunno why! Lemme know if it works for you too! :)
As for makeup - powder is great to eliminate shine. Also, if when you go into a bathroom, check yourself in a mirror - if you see shine building up, simply press a paper towel up to your face. LOOK AT IT. It absorbs the oil right off of your skin. This works wonders.|||Using natural ingredients for skin care gets good results.

I%26#039;ve had oily skin forever. And nothing helps me. Even things like toners and astringent seem to make it worse, and I dunno why! Lemme know if it works for you too! :)
As for makeup - powder is great to eliminate shine. Also, if when you go into a bathroom, check yourself in a mirror - if you see shine building up, simply press a paper towel up to your face.

Black people come in all shades and colors, just like Hispanics. People always assume it has something to do with being mixed, but thats not always the case.

As people moved north from Africa to places where they got less sunlight, their skins got lighter so they could absorb more sunlight for making vitamin D, which is essential for health. People near the sunny equator got plenty of sun, so they could continue to prosper with darker skin and still get enough vitamin D. In this sense, dark skin is the default for humans, and lighter skin an adaptation.|||Primarily due to the mixing of races. You can look at the black slaves that were at one time in America nd the slaves that are in Africa and see how dark they are, how tight their hair is etc...now look at the blacks in America they don%26#039;t look the same.

How can I make my skin smooth without chemicals or doctor related stuff?
My face and legs are not smooth but I want them to be and im almost broke so please something that isn%26#039;t pricey.|||For your body i would buy an exfoliating scrub.. or maybe just a shower scrub which you can purchase from the body shop. It gets rid of dead skin cells which lay on the top layer of skin and make it rough. using a scrub would get rid of that and make it smooth. And for your face use something a little finer, a face scrub. I use Derma E%26#039;s microdermabrasion scrub and it is AMAZING. the best i have ever used and i%26#039;ve used alot of exfoliaters, its a little expensive.. like 40 dollars canadian but trust me it works|||I love the Lluvia all natural from the rainforest crystal exfoliator.
I%26#039;ve never had many good things to say about cosmetics and skin care products, because if you want to be honest about it, probably 98 percent of the skin care products on the market are complete garbage. They do nothing whatsoever to beautify your skin, and, in fact, most of them actually harm your health, because they contain artificial fragrances composed of cancer-causing chemicals. When you put this stuff on your skin, it gets absorbed into your bloodstream and causes liver damage, or even DNA damage. It is a direct promoter of cancer. In fact, according to federal law, nearly all bottles of perfume, deodorant, lotion, shampoo and skin care products are illegally labeled, because they contain cancer-causing ingredients, and yet they have no warnings on the labels whatsoever to alert consumers about those ingredients.
But now there%26#039;s a new skincare product line from the Amazon Herb Company that is actually healthy. It actually contains only helpful ingredients. None of those harmful ingredients found in most other skin care and cosmetic products are found in this line. The line is called Lluvia, and it%26#039;s the first line of personal care products that I have been willing to stand up and talk about as being healthy. These products contain potent rain forest botanicals, but more importantly, they have no artificial fragrance, no fillers and no sodium laureth sulfate. They are not made with things like transmission fluid and brake fluid, which are the chemicals found in most other cosmetic products. This is an exceptional product line.
My strategy is to create healthy skin from the inside, through outstanding nutrition. I do this by eating raw foods and drinking raw food juices. If you ever want to see a bunch of people with a really vibrant, healthy glow in their skin, just go to a raw food group. Those who have been eating raw foods the longest will probably have the best skin.
But most of the world isn%26#039;t going to convert to raw foods, so most people need external nutrition for their skin, and in that case, I think this Lluvia product line is the very best I%26#039;ve found yet. If you%26#039;re going to put something on your skin, let it be this.
Lluvia has all the products you might expect in a skin care line: Cleanser, moisturizer, a deep penetrating oil that gives healthy oils to your skin tissues and a nice spray to spritz your face. In addition to these products, they have a camu C serum, which is loaded with camu fruit. As you may know, camu is very high in antioxidants and contains an extremely high level of vitamin C. If you put this serum on your skin, there%26#039;s no question about it: These nutrients will be absorbed into the skin and provide external nutritional.

A good skin routine is cleansing, toning and moisturizing (and maybe exfoliating once a week).

-Do not use liquid foundation because it does not look natural and it%26#039;s worse for your skin. If you want something that looks more natural, then use a tinted moisturizer with SPF 30.
-If your make-up starts to shine, use some blotting paper rather than reapplying powder, which can often start to look to heavy.

What can I use for skin discloration before applying my makeup on?
I have some skin discoloration where acne used to be. Before I apply my makeup, what product can I use to even out my skin?|||You should apply foundation (e.g. BareMinerals foundation) all over your face and neck, make sure the color matches your skin. Then apply concealer to your eye circles and other trouble spots, and blend well.
There are many places where you could receive help choosing the best foundation and concealer for you including Macy%26#039;s, Bare Escentuals, Ulta, Sephora, etc.
Or
you could get rid of your blemishes and not worry so much about hiding them. Your blemishes aka Hyperpigmentation can be treated with products containing hyrdoquinone (2 to 6%) (which inhibits the production of skin pigment) and will take from 3 months to a year, perhaps even more to fade the blemishes away completely.
The products are usually known as bleaching, fading, or skin lightening creams and they can be bought over the counter or with a prescription, depends on the strength.
You would have to apply it to the spots at least once a day, and always apply a strong SPF sunscreen during the day to ensure that the spots don%26#039;t get darker. Avoid applying the fading cream to the other skin because you don%26#039;t want those parts to get lighter.
Of course you have to make sure to keep using it everyday until the scars are gone or otherwise they will just come back, so patience pays a lot. But as according to the directions, if you don%26#039;t see any results in 3 to 4 months, discontinue. I have been using it on scars for 2 months and I see results.
Some brands are Esoterica and Porcelana (both 2% hydroquinone), they can be found in drug stores. The price range is from 5-12 dollars. I get mine from Wal-mart, so much cheaper. There are stronger products like Dermesse which is 4 percent and has a better formula but can cost you up to 60 bucks and can be found at skin laser centers. And then prescription creams are even more expensive, about $100, but they contain other ingredients like Retin A to help in the process, so it%26#039;s probably worth it.
Another solution is microdermabarasion + chemical peel. Very expensive, may take up to six treatments (6 months), you have to make sure you go to a qualified profession. Perhaps your dermatalogy office provides these services, you might want to check.|||Definitely try Bare Minerals. It covers up skin discolorations very well.|||Maybelle with H2O in it works well for me. I still have acne, and alot of redness in my skin.

How do you remove a skin tag from your genital area?
I have 2 skin tags growing on the shaft of my penis. Does anyone know of any home remedies to get rid of them. Insurance does not cover skin tag removal. It is considered unneeded cosmetic surgery.|||yes, but it will be painful in your area. I would suggest before you try this to get drunk to numb the pain. Get some fishing string and wrap around it and pull both sides and it will cut it off. Then clean with rubbing alcohol and cover up.|||I agree with the girl saying DONT do it youself- and definitely don%26#039;t try and get drunk first! You could end up chopping off alot more than you want chopping with such poor hand-eye coordination!
I have no experience of removing skin tags, there are few I would like removed but also as she said over here in the UK the NHS would do it free. I%26#039;m sure if you appealed to your insurance company saying it is causing you alot of psychological stress and harm then they would ease up, especially on WHERE the skin tag is.|||I suggest you DO NOT try removing them yourself - eek your making me flinch just thinking about it. I have a friend who keeps getting these skin tags under her arms, and she literally cuts them off - and Jesus do they bled. So I can just imagine you chopping of yours there - again I flinch with the pain from it and its not even me.
Over here in the UK you could get them removed for free on our National Health System (NHS), because it would be regarded to be something were it to cause you mental stress, that would need to be done for you own mental well being. I sense your from the USA, so I can%26#039;t recommend anything other than private consultation, which of course would cost a fortune.
Ask yourself if these tags are in a place that would be noticeable to your girlfriend, they probably are not, but please please don%26#039;t go cut them off yourself. There really is no product that will remove them, its not like a wart. Even so were it a wart on that part of your body, I would certainly not use a wart remover - most delicate part of your body is that.
Would your doctor not send a letter to the Insurance Company stating that although its a cosmetic thing that needs to be done, it is mentally upsetting your love life. Worth a try.
Good Luck and I wish you all the very best.|||ok this might hurt no its going to hut i had one on my neck and one under my arm all i did was twist it back and forth till it started hurting i did it for a coulple of days till it bled then i let it turn black then i just puled them off with no hurt and no mark but i remind u it was not on my penis and they were about the size of a metal BB take the pain or not hope this helps|||Honestly most doctors just cut them off with scissors. I have two friends that both had skin tags and the doctor just snipped them with scissors. One of my friends said that it bled and hurt but was okay within a few minutes. The other had no pain or bleeding.|||Yes, I agree with the others. I have cut them off and it only hurts for a second but yes they do bleed for a little while but it does stop. Mine haven%26#039;t grown back.|||get some string tie i around the tag skin tight and it will fall of in a few does (i had the same thing)|||use a razor and run it over the skin tag just like shaving your doodle.

I know you%26#039;re a guy so carrying around a little bottle isn%26#039;t practical, but they have pens with brushes so when you twist the bottom, you can just swipe the oil on.

I have psoriasis, and have had to deal with this problem all my life. From your description your condition sounds similar, have you seen a dermotologist? The best way to get rid of the patches for myself has been to use an herbal tonic, taken orally, TAC-A-WAH Indian Tonic. It cleans out your system. Follow dosing instructions closely.
Along with the tonic, I use Hydraston ointment. I noticed a difference the first time I tried them. I wish I had known about this stuff when I was 13. I got both these items at the same time at an Amish store. Drink more water.

How do you make your skin tan without a tanning booth or fake tan stuff?
I have pale white skin and I don%26#039;t like it. Girls don%26#039;t even look at me. I look in the bathroom miror and I find my skin to be nice and tan but then at school I look in a miror and I see white pale white skin. What do I do? Is there any lotion or something to get an instant tan?|||at school, you have flourescent lights... the most tan person in the world will look extremely pale. other than self tanning lotions, a bronzer is your best bet. i like physicians formula and cover girl.|||You can buy lotions and gradually build a tan.
For instance: http://www.aveeno.ca/en/products_list.as鈥?/a>
You don%26#039;t necessarily have to use that brand, but just an idea. Go to the store and look around.|||Well do you want an instant tan lotion or not? To answer the part of your question in bold, get out in the sun.
To answer about fake tan lotions, I only know of coppertone, and it doesn%26#039;t look that good. Too dark, too highly colored, and it needs a little sun to look natural anyway.
Tanning booths aren%26#039;t as good for your skin as natural sun rays anyway. Oh, the people who want to sell you a nap in one of those beds will say so, but they are making money off of it, so of course they aren%26#039;t going to want to hear that its bad for people.|||well just put some sun screen on like spf 50 and go in the sun for like 1hr 30 min its the smartest way to go ..... tanning booths are really dangers|||Go to one of those spray tanning booths.

I think it%26#039;s called the sun? That might work, but I hear that it causes cancer, so maybe not such a good idea... there are lotions that do that, but I hear girls complain that they can never get it on without leaving streaks and lines, so it just looks bad... you could do the mystic tan thing, that works the same way, but more expensive... it also has better results... good luck!!|||cover you self in brown poop, then wipe away with towel. put on perfume to hide poop smell.

Every morning after i wash my face, I moisturize my face, and then after I moisturize it, I use an Intense moisturizing on the spots that need it. Yet my face still goes dry and flaky throughout the day. How do I prevent that?
-the moisturizer I use is velocity by mary kay, and the intense moisturizing cream that I use is also by mary kay.|||I%26#039;m a Mary Kay consultant and I advise to stop using the Velocity because it%26#039;s the wrong formula for your skin. Talk to your Mary Kay consultant to trade the Velocity for the Timewise cleanser and moisturizer products. There are 2 formulas in the Timewise. You need the one for normal to dry skin tones, it will have a pink slash above the word Timewise. Get the cleanser and moisturizer for normal to dry. Also give back the intense moisturizer because the Timewise products will be all you need. Don%26#039;t get the Timewise products with the purple slash, those are for combination to oily skin tones. Your consultant should trade your Velocity for the Timewise at no charge. You will even have a credit with her due to price differences.
Mary Kay is 100% guaranteed and your consultant should trade you for the right formulas.
By the way, what color is the intense moisturizer you have? Is the moisturizer pink or purple? If it%26#039;s purple, it%26#039;s not the right one for you. It%26#039;s for combination to oily tones.
Also, if you are using Mary Kay%26#039;s liquid foundation, you should be using the one with the pink asterisk on the tube.

How do I remove the skin from fresh catfish ?

How can I get my skin to look fresher without gtting a chemical peel?
Some sort of mask or something at a spa? What works and how? I need smaller pores, and fresher looking skin. It looks kind of dull. And I do not want a peel, its WAY too gross for me.|||You can achieve the same results as a chemical peel by using an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) or Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) daily for three weeks.

You can buy these products at drugstores for under $15, too. This guide is not brand specific but it does have suggestions.

There is supposed to be light shedding of the outer skin layer. I%26#039;ve scarcely noticed it. It%26#039;s particularly good for clogged pores. It costs me about $100 a pop. Ideally, one has 8, spaced 2 weeks apart (if I remember correctly).
It%26#039;s not considered a medical procedure. If a person buys the machinery (not cheap) and takes their training course, they%26#039;re ready for action.|||You can even out your skin as my wife did using papaya kojic and licorice base soap and cream which are

If you think about it all Chris Brown has going for him in your mind is his light skin, when judging from his character he%26#039;s a sorry excuse for a man.|||Purchase a skin lightening cream or lotion. These creams contain a variety of different ingredients such as burberry extract, liquorice extract, mulberry extract and hydroquinone which have been shown to lighten dark skin.|||idk. but it%26#039;s funny how ppl want what they don%26#039;t have. you want lighter skin. i%26#039;m as pale as a ghost and i just started going tanning 2 days ago for the first time ever. (i%26#039;m 20 years old. lol.) i also do hair, and anyone who has straight hair wants curly, and ppl w/ curly hair want straight hair.
i do love the skin i%26#039;m in, i would just feel more confident being a tad bit darker so i don%26#039;t look like a ghost. but whatever you do, do it b/c YOU wanna do it, not b/c you feel like you should do it for someone else. i say do anything that makes you feel confident!! best of luck to you.|||That is one of the most self hating things I have ever heard. First you should be you, and second there is no such thing to make your skin lighter. Mabye the condition Micheal Jackson has ( and that%26quot;s fake!!) Love you, and don%26#039;t change a thing!!|||umm...exfoliate with the body shop masks, i use aveeno positively radiant, and it works, but try

How to make tough the skin around my fingernails?
I keep knocking my fingers at work and they get little tears and bleed. Was wondering how I could prevent this.|||using lotion might make the skin more pliable and resistant to tearing|||HONEY YOU SHOULD CUT YOUR NAILS

Are there any good natural skin care products that really work?
I would like to find a moisturizing lotion for my face that is natural and good for my skin. I have normal to slightly dry skin. It can be somewhat sensitive to some products, but is not prone to blemishes, just sometimes a little redness or rash that goes away. Ironically, the products that will cause this are often the ones that claim to make skin younger looking.|||origins or aveda! almost 100% organic and soo good for your skin|||kiehls!
you can buy it at any kiehls store. i think they sell it at some department stores, also. if you can%26#039;t find any kiehls stores around your area just go to kiehls.com.
their products are great. i have really sensitive skin and kiehls lotions and creams are really lightweight. they%26#039;re not greasy and leave your skin feeling soft. also, if you buy the scented lotion you can smell the scent all day. it%26#039;s not incredibly strong, and smells really light.
they also have facial care, sunscreen, and other stuff of the sort. i%26#039;ve never had any problem with any of it.
the only downside is that they%26#039;re kind of expensive. i use their products in moderation. i use the lotion almost everyday, but i only use the shampoo and conditioner every once in a while.
if that doesn%26#039;t work, i%26#039;d reccomend burts bees. it%26#039;s sold in various stores. their products are all natural (it even says the percentage of how natural it is) and they%26#039;re great for sensitive skin.
i hope i helped :]|||I use %26quot;Frosting Forever%26quot; by Temptations. I bought it at Bath and Body Works (found in most malls) or at www.bathandbodyworks.com And they have so many different scents from Iced Tea to Strawberry and all of them work great. They%26#039;re good priced too. Good luck!
P.S. They%26#039;re not tested on animals! Yay!

How can i make my skin glowing in 7 days?
What sort of foods should I eat? I have been told not to eat any tomatoe based products, so what other sort o foods do you think I should avoid? Does exercise really help?|||Exfoliate, sleep at least 8 hours a night, don%26#039;t go into smoky places and drink plenty of water eat lots of fresh veg and fruit (especially green, leafy veg).|||Fall in love. It does it every time.|||try and wake up really early and dance, go crazy, with your open window so that frech air comes in, adn u breath it in. ull feel happy froi the exercise, adn more oxygen getting u=in ure bloods, feeds all teh oteh cells ( incl skin cells) wash every morning, but use ponly wanter before you go to bed. try to use a simple soap in the morning and not some expensive cleanishing cream, coz they relly make my skin drier.

My best advice is to drink tons of water, eat lots of veg (including tomato!!!!), exfoliate every day for three days then every other day for the next four and do some exercise.
