Has Anyone Tried Clearly Natural Glycerine Soap?

Meanest thing that someone has said about your acne

In high school.. "At least you know guys like you for your personality" and "It's great that you have the confidence to go out with such awful skin." Girls are so good at being undercover jerks.

Best Makeup Type To Hide *real* Scars?

My skin can't handle anything that isn't an oil-free formula, and I'm of the belief that most cream foundations contain some form of oil. (Correct me if I'm mistaken.) I may wind up trying Dermablend,...

Best Makeup Type To Hide *real* Scars?

I agree with whoever said mineral makeup makes lines and scars look more noticable. It's terrible about settling into any indentation. Have you ever tried a cream makeup? They're not as "slippery" as ...
