project. And I have to say, it's powerful.There's so many kids out there looking at the airbrushed, Photoshopped models on TV and it's sad - because they wanna be just like them. They don't know how fake the beauty industry is.Take a look at this video.. it'll make you think.
For gorgeous lashes 2008-08-22 08:55:00 You know what's really frustrating?

Can't Sleep? 2008-08-14 11:48:00 Argh, the frustration of sleepless nights!

Without the basics, your going nowhere fast
Get Lippy 2008-08-13 10:23:00
Euw, noone likes crusty lips.
I remember someone in high school who had the most chapped up lips, and it's not a good look!
Annoying thing was that they never put any effort into sorting it out. Daft.
But you, on the other hand, have a purfect pucker, which either needs just a little bit of conditoning or some good old pampering. Right? Okay.

Combination Skinnn. 2008-08-05 14:28:00 I have combo skin - ah, yes the best of both worlds. Juggling with both dry and oily skin can be a nightmare, if you don't know what you're doing..

But it's pretty simple; don't overwash, mix products or use heavy moisturizers.
This way you don't mash up the oily parts of your f Read more:Combination
