That's the thing. All of the mineral make-up I've seen is pricey. I don't have the money to spend on it, honestly.
I've never seen a Pro-active knock-off. o.o I should look for one, honestly. I did see a Pro-Active vending machine in a mall, though. It makes me giggle whenever I see it. I know how the trial and erro rthing goes. That's the way it was with my hair. Either the mousse was too stiff and just made my hair look dirty, or it didn't hold at all. I finally found two mousse brands that I like. Of course, both are kinds I can only get from a salon/my mother. ^^; |
*Pops in*
Spectro Acne Care is what I use, it's got one of the highest amounts of Benzoyl Peroxide in a cleanser. I think it was 5%? My mom brought it back from the pharmacy she works at. I don't usually get much acen/many pimples, but this stuff is like face crack. It absorbs quickly, and it leaves your skin dry if you have oily skin, even if just for a little while. XD |
*sits and watches conversation* I am so clueless about makeup and the like. After I got through my teens, my skin has been nice to me so I don't have issues. But then I also don't wear any sort of make-up/skin product.. just sunscreen during the summer.
|
I wear cover-up. >__>; I fail at taking care of my skin since I'm lazy, so I usually have a handful of blotches. It's never been bad enough that I need to do much about it though since a little bit of makeup pretty much masks everything.
I've never been in a friend group that was big on make-up though, so I just use it mostly for cover up. It makes my mom happy. *shrugs* |
You're all going to hate me, but I don't have oily skin. For a teenager it's amazingly clear. There is some stuff in the bathroom for my sister. I know the Swiss apricot scrub stuff works pretty well when I do get break-outs. But it may not work on someone with oiler skin. You may also want to find a concealer that helps with oil control. I have some stuff from almay that works.
I don't really wear a lot of make-up though. Maybe you should stick to eye and lip stuff and skip blush and bronzer? Would that even work? |
Lucky peoples with oily skin. My skin is so dry I've ended up with a patch that like a burn on my cheek bone again.
Mineral make-up is in the cheeper end of branded make-up but they don't have that much choice. |
*rolls into the thread*
Hai guys! I just got done with the second weekend of doing the soundboard for my school's play, so now I get to sit back and relax and... OH WAIT! WE HAVE THE SPRING CONCERT THIS FRIDAY!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKSOCKS! >.< |
Mine's on the 14th. Mr. Cheeseman has said he won't post who gets into Syndicated Sound until after the awards banquet. He's trying to cut down on drama. I doesn't really matter because I'm a senior, but I hope my sister gets in!
I won't relax until summer starts. I still need to look for a job.... |
Kev: At least you can pat yourself on the back having finished the play. :)
|
@ Fairy: Cheeseman is a fantastic name, ranking just below Mr. Mustachio.
@ Fia: My English teacher told me to do that. Unfortunately, because of my surgery, that'd give me shitloads of pain. Pain so great, it can only be measured in expletives. |
And his first name is Charles so he can call himself Chuck Cheeseman. Yes, his name is filled with awesomeness.
Oh, that sounds terrible... That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger!(?) |
Morning everyone. Wow, I expected to be behind way more than 4 pages in my absense. How are you all doing?
|
Kev: Um... well then you can.... I dunno. Eat a cookie in celebration? T_T
|
Yay cookies!
I'm bored. |
*throws more cookies to Kevin*
|
Haha, the title of this place made me laugh. ;O<3

Now I'm trying a similar product that can be bought at the stores (and is quite a bit cheaper) called Acne Free. It's working a little better than the proactiv, but the moisterizer doesn't moisterize at all. It just dries. Which is fine, but I have to find a REAL moisterizer to use in conjuction with it. It is sooo hard to find just a plain moisterizer. They're all more acne stuff or anti-aging. I did find ONE that wasn't for any particular thing, but my face has been oily since I began using it. ;-; I don't have much problems with actual pimples. Those usually only come if I neglect my face-washing routine, or during PMS. What I have problems with are blackheads. My nose is coated in them, and they are so hard to deal with. I empty them all about once a week, and the acne-free stuff has actually gotten them to shrink some (something that has not ever happened before), but they still fill right back up. >< Quote:
And a proactiv vending machine? That's... odd. xD Quote:

I can't put anything on my skin when I get burn like patches because it's so painful.
Cherry might want to try Coal Face soap from Lush I've found it helps when my skin gets really dry and with black heads. I've found it's alot better than using some of these black head scrubs. |
I got a 84 on my practice AP psych exam! If I do that well on the actual test I'm set!
I have battle of the books tomorrow. I am going to know my bkkos down cold! And authors. Those author questions are so hard... |
The way is ajar.
It was made by those who are terrible builders, And they refuse to fix it. The way is ajar. |
Is this poem time?
A poem about Scrubs: Oh Scrubbles you're so fun to watch, you fill my heart with bubbles. You make me laugh, even when I cry, and sometimes I just sigh.... |
Cherry: As stated. I think I mentioned the vending machine gives me a fit of giggles every time I see it.. People always look at me odd in the mall when that happens. But I can't help it.
Now, the Dippin' Dots vending machine. THAT makes me happy. Very happy. But then sad because I usually don't have the money to spare for them. XD |
That reminds me of a time when I was on a trip. There was an ice cream bar machine and I ordered orange. Just my luck, the machine gets stuck, so not only do I not get one, but no one behind me did either! I felt SO bad. And everyone was saying if it would happen to anyone, it'd be her. "cause it's true. Things like that happen to me.
Dipping dots is so good! |
Mine was actually a parody of a quote from a book/movie. 1000 not-Lee points to whomever gets it.
|
I always show up for the points. ;D
But that would be a parody of the Lord of the Rings, if I'm not mistaken. The line in particular from the 2nd book/movie: Quote:
