How To: Keep your skin from looking like a zombie's after Halloween


 

Check these out, too...

  • Spring hair bling under $10
  • Get gorgeous spring date night makeup
  • Beauty Spy: Fresh faced and simple Ann Marie E.
Watch out, or your skin could look even scarier after Halloween. We’ve got 4 fab precautions to take to get your skin back to normal after the spooky night is over.

1. Read the labels
Please, please, make sure you’re using makeup that is labeled “non-comodogenic” (as in, won’t clog your pores) and “oil-free.” This is also key for girlies with sensitive skin--you don’t want to irritate anything or risk a bad reaction. Halloween is scary enough as it is!

2. Ditch last year’s makeup
It’s not the best idea to recycle the red lipstick from last year’s Dracula costume. Make sure your face paint is fresh—no more than six months old. Same goes with body paint. There’s no guarantee that products will keep for more than 3-6 months, so don’t risk turning Frankenstein-green overnight. Eek!

3. Don’t turn into a pumpkin!
Don’t skip the wash-off portion after your trick-or-treat run. Use makeup remover wipes to gently rub away the evidence, and then follow your normal skincare routine.

4. Sharing can be scary
We’re warning you—don’t share makeup! We get that sharing your goods is Girl Code Rule #43, but in this case, we’re making an exception. Makeup and body paint when shared can spread infections, bacteria and skin oils between you and your buds. Ick. Make sure to keep the beauty products to yourself—no horror stories tonight.

How do you clear out black heads on your nose and face? I have used those strips and a little bit comes out but it never stays away for more then a couple minutes. If there is anything you think I could do that would be great. Thanks!!




Hey girlie,

This article is full of our fave products for nixing blackheads - it'll totally help ya! Smile

Help! I have bags under my eyes, and they have been there for a long time (like 1 and a half yrs) I hate them and want to get rid of them but I don't know how! I am pretty sure its not because of sleep because I get about 9 hrs of sleep on school days. HELP!!! Also, why do they happen?

 

Hey girly,

 

There are a couple creams that you can get for under your eyes. I would suggest going to your local drugstore and checking out what they have for that sort of thing.

I have alot of acne I always have but that was just millions black and white heads now i am getting these things that look like pimples but they get bigger until they pop themselves and they leave a whole in my face.My dad has the same thing but mine isnt as bad i was hoping you could tell me what product would help me please and thnx




Hey babe,

Try washing your face twice a day with a gentle cleanser. Make sure you don't touch your face too much during the day, since your hands can transfer oils to your face that will clog pores. And that causes pimples! If you're having trouble keeping them in line even after scoring the right cleansers/scrubs and treating it right, try asking your doctor. He/she might have some tips or could refer you to an awesome dermatologist Smile They're the experts!

@ Cait850

I have minor acne (whiteheads and readheads; that's it) and went to the dermatologists. My skin is VERY sensitive, and turns out I am allergic to benzoyl peroxide I was using with SkinID. So, the dermatologist prescribed this cream for me. I've only used it once last night, but I've noticed a difference in how it looks!

Good luck with this! Smile

MOD MOD MOD MOD! alright so when i put my makeup on in the morning, i wear like everything and i put black eyeliner on top and on the bottom of my eye. everyday usually around after lunch time it starts smearing really bad (i dont put that thick of a line) and i alwyas have to wipe under my eyes a ton of times during the day. liquid eyeliner doesn't work for me either becsause ive used it before and it smears even worse. what should i do?? because i hear that rubing your eyes a lot makes wrinkles later on

 

Hey girly, you should try touching it up before lunch. I always check my makeup throughout the day. It could also be the brand of eyeliner you're using. Hit up the makeup section at CVS or Target and try some other brands. Hope this helps! Smile Smile

In here it says it is Girl Code Rule #43.What are the Girl Code Rules? Do you have an article about it?If not can you make one?
Hugs and tickles-megan




Hey girlie,  Girl Code is just a general list of "rules" for what to do and what not to do with your girlies.  Like for example, never date your bff's ex boyfriend right after a break up.  It does exist but not as an actual list.  Usually, it's an assumed thing.   

But sure thing, I'll pass the word along.

Is this a good excercise for my abs? I really want a flat stomach!
While im doing my computer i bounce on an excercise ball..It feels like its working my abs..But its not like something that makes me sweat or sore or something.
Is it still a good excercise for while im doing my schoolwork? (Im homeschooled ;P)




Hey girlie!

If it feels like you're working your abs, then you probably are.  But sorry to be the bearer of bad news, that alone is not gonna' give you the flat stomach that you want.  You can't give it half your all when trying to keep your bod in shape!

I have acne. I will wash my face 2 times a day and nothing happens. Some pimples and whiteheads will go away, but i always have these little pimples. Also my nose is always oily, even when I don't touch it, like after I was, its oily again!! Any tips??




Hey girlie!

Ask your mom to take you on over to a dermatologist.  Generally, they're fantastic and can give you creams or medicine or over the counter suggestions that will clear you right up!
