Not feelin' the lip love

 

 

Everyone has a natural lip color, and as you’ve probably noticed, sometimes it has absolutely nothing to do with your normal skin color. One girl with pale skin can have equally pale pink lips. Another’s lips can be a deep red sans lipstick. It’s also quite natural and common for your lips to be different colors among a similar spectrum—tan and pink shouldn’t be anything to worry about, but if you are a bit freaked out, give your doc a call.

 

Because the skin covering our lips is quite thin, sudden changes in lip color can illustrate your health. If your lips dramatically change color, get yourself to the doctor for a quick check-up, just to make sure everything’s OK.

 

Still not satisfied? If the color difference between your upper and lower lips is really bothering you, try an all-natural lip stain to even them out, or get into the habit of swiping on a light pink gloss. Easy as pie!

what is a good healthy weight for a 5'4 12 year old girl?




Hey girl,

This is a question for your doctor, not the mods! We're able to help ya with a LOT of different situations, but if you're concerned/curious about your weight, a professional opinion is the only one to trust Smile

Ok, so I have a really strange shaped mole on the side of my breast. It looks sorta like an A, or like a paint smear or something. It doesn't have that much substance to it though, if that makes any sense. I'm really worried, because in health class, we learned that weird shaped moles or moles with no real ending border (mine) could mean melnoma, a type of skin cancer. Skin problems run in my dad's side of the family. Also, I have another mole in my lower-abdominal area that has alot of substance, and it seems like whenver it gets sunburned it scabs and bleeds. Is that normal? I have a dermotologist appointment in early January (it was tomorrow, but they had to cancel). Is there anything else I can do before it? I'm freaking out about the mole on my breast. Do I have reason to? Thanks SO much!




Hey girlie,

Don't freak out! It's really good you're getting these checked though - and you should continue to get them checked regularly as you get older. If they've always been a weird shape, they're probably fine now. But if you're out in the sun a lot and/or they've changed shape/size, it's good for a doc to take a look to make sure it isn't something more serious than a mole. Just try to stay calm between now and your appointment. And make sure you don't pick at the moles! You don't want to irritate them/hurt yourself. Let the professionals do their job and trust them! <3

Calling all mods!!!
Ok so I have a goal, I am going to (well try to) be fit enough to wear a bikini by the summer. I'm not like being too specific about a certain weight or exact date, just probably like 15 lbs by the early summer. So I am planning on getting a treadmill for Christmas so if I run
30 minutes a day ( and bump it up a few minuetes each week) do you think that would make me lose weight? And I have been eating much healthier and less. Thanks so much!!! <3




Hey girlie,

That sounds like a great plan! Just make sure you're doing a workout that you find fun and interesting so you don't get bored and unmotivated. Pair that with smart food choices and smaller portions. Some people even find it's better to eat MORE meals, but smaller ones, throughout the day. And don't forget to get plenty of sleep and drink plenty of water! Smile

OK well my BF and i have been together for...about 2 months now! i am so happy cause he is my first boyfriend. i only get to see him at school in the halls cause i'm in 7th grade and he is in 8th. well his friend keeps on grabbing me inbetween classes trying to get me to kiss my boyfriend at locker break...but i haven't had my first kiss and i don't want to have it will like 50 people around...that and we might get in trouble. well today he did it again and i ran off...i think it kinda hurt my boyfriend's feelings and made him think that i don't wanna kiss him! tomorrow should i just suck it up and kiss him? i don't want to screw it up....HELP PLEASE! THANKS!




Hey Chica,

You should talk to your BF and soon. Tell him that you want your first kiss to be special and not at locker break. And also think about asking his friend to stop. Boys are often immature and don't know that what they're doing is annoying, But it's not his business, it's just between you and your bf. If your bf is a good guy, he should understand that you want it to be special. Good luck!

i get ulcers in my mouth very frequently. is there anyway i can prevent them or get rid of them fast? Smile




Hey girlie,

SO DO I! I even get them in my throat, which is a total yuck. I asked my doc about them and she said they don't know exactly why they occur, but they do have some ideas. First, make sure you don't eat a lot of acidic foods - orange juice, ketchup, spicy foods, etc. can irritate your mouth. (But some acidic foods are necessary for our diet! Just don't overdo them.) One doctor also suggested that I might be low in Vitamin B. So try to take a multivitamin everyday to see if it helps! (Flintstone vitamins, anyone? Still love those!) Smile
