Hello everyone! I was just wondering how other girl my age beautify themselves. I am 17 and here is my beauty routine…

1. St. Ives facial cleanser and makeup remover
2. anti-aging face cream (never to early to start!)
3. vitamin C eye gel (rejuvenates eyes and reduces puffiness)
4. Shimmery body lotion
4. Makeup – foundation, bronzer, eyeshadow primer, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, a small amount of pink blush, and shimmery chapstick or plain vaseline.
5. St.Ives facial cleanser and makeup remover before bed
6. Night face cream

Also, before I shower I apply olive oil all over my body, even in my hair. And once or twice a week I make my own facial mask – cooked oatmeal and honey. Oh, and lots of water and daily vitamins. What are your beauty tips and secrets???

Ok so I have dark circles under my eyes, I sleep well, eat well, not overweight, I don’t smoke, I drink occasionally but not often. I think its hereditary.
So my mom told me to use her anti-age eye cream every night which is rich in antioxidants, but it seems to be darkening the skin under my eyes, how can this happen?

Has anyone seen the movie Prozac Nation? Why are we so depressed this day and age that so many people including teens on anti-depressants. Also, all you hear about in kids now is ADD, and taking meds for this. I’m in my early 40′s and it seems like things go in waves, when my kids were babies, which they were lucky not to have this, they were putting in tubes in ears…is this all just a money making thing, or is the world’s environment changing so fast, that we are getting chemically induced somewhere that makes us/people have to take this medicine. Any views on this

vit D helps the process of anti-aging taken from sunlight. but since sunlight contains harmful UV rays . i want to derive vitamin D from foods like fruits and vegetables. what specific fruits and/or vegetable contains vit D

I heard that you’re supposed to use anti-aging products when you’re young to prevent wrinkles, but if you start too early will it be too harsh on your skin?

The Effects of Sleep Deprivation on Student

Parents and teachers always ask their children to get plenty of sleep at a young age. Most common children ignore the adult’s remarks without thinking of the coming consequences. The children will realize the different in their body and mind as they grow older. Their memory will shorten and their body decreases in the amount of growth hormone. Causes of body and mind decay are commonly come from lack of sleep. Sleep deprivation on students will be fix when students changing some of their habits.

National Sleep Foundation recent study state, “63% of college students do not get enough sleep.” Sleep deprivation is a way of life for most students, especially during exam times. 15% percent of college students admit that they fall asleep in class. Students who studied hard all week and then stayed up all night partying on the weekend lost as much as 30% of what they had learned during the week. This is not a problem only seen in college students. Much of society suffers to some extent from sleep deprivation.

Looking for an effective, readily available, anti aging facial cream. What to look for when shopping for one.
I am lookiing for a brand name here, not generalized information on how the products should or can work.

What products work. What ingrediants to look for. None of us have time to try them all.

There are so many different brands and types of anti aging and wrinkle creams. I have a wrinkle across forehead and I want to see it disappear w/out surgery.

Do you think it actually works? They did a story awhile back about Protandim on Prime Time. It sounded promising.

• Brand: Pomology
