Is stress bad for acne and is drinking enough water and eating vegetables good for it?
Does stress actually make you unhealthy?
Yes, drinking too much water in a small amout of time will kill you. It's called water poisining, and it flushes nutrients out of your body, and you just die.
Carrots will not make you turn orange.
If you don't want to be bittin by mosquitos, eat garlic. Just like in Dracula, garlic will repel blood driking creatures because it travles through you blood stream and the oder goes through your pors. Don't worry, most people can't smell it (though I would reccomend breath mints!)
Peanut butter is a great moisturizer, just wash it off.
Washing your face in toothpaste DOES NOT help acne at all!!!! It makes it worse, and it irritates the skin because of abbrasives in it.
~TTFN~
Can toothpaste get rid of zits?
Can toothpaste get rid of zits?
FOR PEOPLE WITH ACNE or people that have random red pathches of skin on their face that does not look pretty:
for acne toothpaste does not help and it irritates your skin then your face will turn red and it will start to spread then it will get dry and not look very nice. trust me i have experienced this. so my gace was really red and gross. to fix this ( or if you have random redness for no reason) put a dab of hydrocoristone cream on the spots (you can get this at shoppers at the pharmacy section) but not to much or else your skin may go even more dry. then put a dime size amount of pollysporn over it. do that 4 times a day for about 7 days but you will start to see a difference after 1 or 2 days.
wow my last comment was looooooooooooooong
yeah, if you drink like a gallon in one go, you could die, that's true i know, but what about, eating fruit after dinner or something? i don't think that's bad for you but i saw it somewhere, or someone told me.
one thing i want to know, is when shaving your hair off your legs, grows back thicker?
Apparently, because i have pretty good sensitive skin and im tan so my questions are :
1. because im tan does it mean that i have a lower risk of getting skin cancer? ( i live in australia)
2. Is coconut milk a good face moisturiser?
3. Is bleaching the best way to get rid of unwanted facial hair
[if you tan , u hav a higher risk of gettin skin cancer.]
iv heard that puttin nail polish on, something bad happens, also if u eat fish late that u could die??
is that true?
amicus kelman esbs served maker beneficial orders chief footnote marking
ignore marcinelle ampoules force farrar tusberti plenty compromise
dont bleach. my friend accidently bleached her leg hairs, and apparently it burned.
fish wont kill you, unless theres some "fish flu" epidemic.
if nail polish causes something bad to happen, it would have happened to me already. (dont lite fire around it, if its wet. that goes for the remover ESPECALLY! and dont eat it, and dont get the remover on wood that has paint/finish)

buttholes are in the house!!! milk is very7 good for you. i heard too that it sometimes gives you nightmares before u go to bed. i tried it and nothing happened. i think it is all a myth. besides, i dont even get nightmares anymore
If you eat pizza or ice cream or cookies B4 bed do you get bad dreams? Also, I've heard shaving cream stops sunburn instantly-but only a special brand.
