MOD!!! MOD!!! MOD!!!
I AM CONFUSED ABOUT MY SKIN TYPE:
Well whenever I have a zit I use Shaving Cream For woman
And it always goes away!
Is it OK to use shaving cream on your face
and is shaving cream some type of face cleaner?




Hey girly,

While shaving cream does dry out zits, it can also dry out your skin so much that it produces more oil and actually gives you more zits, so I don't suggest using it. Try using a solution with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. x0x0

MOD MOD Hi Smile Okay so i have acne its not that bad but i would like to have nice clear skin. I use Dove soap sensitive skin bar soap to wash my face befor bed and then i use Aveeno face mosturizer. My face is not clearing up! I know its a part of being a teen. My mom said that the Dove soap is the best thing to use on my face. I read that you aren't supposed to use soap on your face is that true? Is Dove soap what i should be using? Or should i try like a face wash? If so what kind do you recomend i have more oily skin i think but i'm not for sure. Oh and should i keep using the mosturizer? Sorry its so long and sorry for so many questions! Thanks so much! Smile Smile

 

 

Hey girl. There are differing opinions on what should be used on your face. This is what I personally use: http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P55427&categoryId=S15135&shouldPaginate=true. I would see a derm though!

Ok, I have a bunch of long hair on my arms. It's not dark though, it is light blonde, but it still makes me uncomfortable because it is so long. I don't want to shave it, and was wondering what kind of alternatives to shaving there might be? Thanks!


 


Hey girl. Shaving your arms can lead to serious stuble. Here are some ideas for non-shaving methods: http://www.girlslife.com/post/2011/02/09/how-do-i-get-rid-of-arm-hair.aspx

MOD MOD MOD MOD Okay ,, so i don't really break out on my face (guessing bc i wash it) but lately i've been breaking out on my chest and back. I just started using stuff for it and it seems to be helping , but because summer is here i want it to go away ASAP. Is there any cheap stuff that i can buy for my chest and back acne ?

Hey girly,
The best thing that you can do is get an acne cleanser and keep using it. Zits can't be gotten rid of immediately, but they can be made smaller and prevented. Talk to a doctor if you have any more questions.
