Fashion / Re: Who Buys Designer Clothing? by dora1988: 5:34pm On Jun 23, 2009
i like bcbg, vera wang, jc, marc jacobs, and I like classic ralph lauren , but i llike urban outfitters though not designer, and going to lil stores and shops though they have the most interesting pieces, some people just buy clothes for label but its not cute at all, but sometime the lil shops have the cutest things.
Fashion / Re: I Want My Hair Turned Back To Natural. Urgent Advice On Procedure. by dora1988: 5:19pm On Jun 23, 2009
you cant turn natural you have to transition into it through braids or twists and just stop relaxing your hair, i personally just cut off all my relaxed hair and grew my hair out with braids, some people don't want that, so either transition with braids or twists even weaves but it won't happen over night
Fashion / Re: Does Anyone Have Great Skincare Tips For Very Oily Skin? by dora1988: 5:10pm On Jun 23, 2009
I have oily skin as well and i use clay masks twice a week by Alpha Beta Hydroxy, i use elizabeth arden's oil mattte lotion, I also use witch hazel as a toner after i was my face and i use olay or st- ives as a face wash, neutrogena has a shine control facewash that works, but last year i just stopped wearing foundations/powders period i don't like the feeling i know my face gets shinny but i carry oil absorbing pads, but bare minerals and make up forever make primers that reduces oil but the clay masks help alot, or queen helen's mint julep mask does well too, they also have a good natural face scrub oatmeal and honey, but for now i my staple is the clay mask, witch hazel, and the elizabeth arden lotion, and i switch up facewashes ever so often depending on season and i don't wear foundations i usually will stick to blush or eyemake up, i live in houston, tx so the weather gets really hot and bad pollution , so the less i have on my face the better i feel
Fashion / Re: I Want To Remove My Tattoo by dora1988: 4:59pm On Jun 23, 2009
well if you have money to afford a special type of laser surgery that removes its but that is super expensive its easier to remove black and white ones but colored sometimes only certain pigments can be removed, my friend had a star on her hand they removed the color but can still see where the tatto was

YOu are welcome there are several other natural remedies but finding the one that best for your skin is important, also stay away from make up as long as you can until everything clears up and when it does clear up continue on your skin care routine to prevent future breakouts cheesy

Fashion / Re: Ladies, Can You Leave Home Without Wearing Makeup? by dora1988: 4:25pm On Jun 23, 2009
To me make up is an art, i enjoy mixing experimenting with the colors, i guess because i paint alot i view make up and fashion as painting yourself too, they are all the same thing changing your self from what was not your orginal natural state, same as relaxing one's hair, your hair has been modified except relaxing isn't temporary, ps. I relax my hair but use to be natural for five years,  i go places without wearing make up ALOT and other places with make up it really just depends on my mode that day, and I don't buy the whole only girls that are not naturally beautiful wear make up, because plenty of girls are naturally beautiful but wear makeup, its up to the person really, like now im at work with no makeup on and i work in at a law firm lol. Some people just don't wear it simply because they don't know how to put it on right and thus they look worse with makeup on! grin
Fashion / Re: What Is Your Best Acne Treatment? by dora1988: 10:51pm On Jun 22, 2009
I used proactive a while back it all went away for a long time, but this summer I started to break out again, well I have been using St Ives with the srub and I use Witch Hazel as a toner after i wash my face and I mix aloe vera juice/gel with vitamin e and my elizabeth arden oil matte lotion and that took away all of my acne scars and made skin soft, other face washes i have used are, clean and clear deep cleansing, and neutrogena, and vitesse a spanish brand they sell here in the states, I am from texas so the weather is gross and nasty and causes alot of break outs and I have naturally oily skin but I usually take vitamins wash my face twice a day with st. ives, and mix aloe vera with vitamin e and a face lotion and that works for me. I like using as many natural things as i can find just make sure your not allergic to anything.

About her not being any white not necessarily true, first of all rarely is there such a thing as PURE BLACK AFRICAN, MOST AFRICANS HAVE A MIXTURE IN THEM THROUGH CENTURIES OF EUROPEAN COLONIZATION, PORTUGAL SETTLED IN NIGERIA AND MOST OF WEST AFRICA IN THE 1400S, DON'T TELL ME THAT THEY DIDNOT RACIALLY MIX BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE A LIE, DNA TESTING, AFRICA IS THE MOST GENETIC VARIANT CONTINENT ON EARTH, EVEN IF A GIRL IS DARK SKINNED, IT DOES NT MEAN SHE DOESN'T HAVE WHITE IN HER, SKIN COLOR DOES NOT ALWAYS TELL THE COMPLETE STORY BECAUSE THERE IS RECESSIVE GENES THAT GET PASSED ON, IE EYE COLOR, SO COMPLETELY RULING OUT ANY SORT OF MIXTURE IS AN INCORRECT ASSUMPTION, smiley
