baileaxann aksed: so I'm looking for specifics for decorating my bedroom. I want everything red and black, and I want everything vintage/Victorian. I'd LOVE and iron or black stained wood poster bed-although I don't think I can exceed a full-sized bed. I also need help finding a comforter, black and red. anything will help, thanks!
eeyore girl answered: That sounds fantastic! I can just imagine it! If you could find a vintage quilt (in reds & whites) Mixed in with loads of white vintage linens. And one of those lovely old fashioned china wash basin and jugs. A wooden chest , filled with crocheted blankets. Oh lovely, post some pictures!
I need some really good tips for skin, makeup, and fashion! Help?

Skin: Well. As you can see above my skin is less than cooperative. I have Clearskin (from Avon, it is step 1 - deep pore cleansing scrub, step 2 - clarifying toner pads, step 3 - daily correcting lotion, and invisible blemish treatment), Dove moisturizer, Neutrogena Wave, a pore minimizer lotion, Health & Henry blemish gel, and Avon moisturizer. Im never sure when or what to use. I can always get more stuff. Especially items from Avon. My skin is always changing. Also, what to eat that could help this and how to get rid of the "scars"
__________________________________________________________________________________
Makeup: I dread putting on makeup, it scares me a bit. I usually wear foundation and mascara. Thats it. I have quite a bit of makeup, my mom is always giving me some and trying to get me to use it. I dont know how to apply it or what to use or where to use it! Help! I have all kinds like I said and Im always able to get more.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Hair: Ugh. I hate my hair it is so frizzy and its wavy in weird ways. Ick. I have a chi flat iron but it takes so long to do that every day. I also have a few styling products that I never got the hang of. Also, Im working on different styles and up-dos, Im sick of headbands. Im experimenting with color too. I had really blonde hair, tried to dye it red and got this odd color. My hair never took to color well and still doesnt. Any suggestions on a color for me?
__________________________________________________________________________________
Fashion: I have quite a large closet but I dont know how to wear things. I wear just plain jeans with a plain t-shirt everyday. I love to wear blouses' with ties and vest or even suspenders sometimes. I have some great fedoras but I dont know how to wear them. I love dressing like that but it never turns out well or cute. I also need help on everyday outfits.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Morning routine: I hate morning with a passion. Though I almost always have to get up at 6. I need a detailed schedule that has everything I need to to between 5:30 am and 7:30 am (when I leave the house)
__________________________________________________________________________________
Extra: Accessories, room decorating, eating habits, etc. Organization and all that jazz. Accessories, like earrings and bracelets and all those things that make outfits pop and awesome. Need tons of tips there. Room decorating, I mostly need to organized and stuff. I have my bed, vanity, and desk. Than my closet and personal bathroom. I need tips for all of that. Whenever Im in my room trying to get stuff done, especially homework, I always get distracted. Eating, I horrible at eating. Im not anorexic or anything but Im just not hungry very often so I dont eat very much. When I do eat its usually junk. This led to a stomach ulcer I have currently which makes me want to eat all the time. I also need a few daily exercises to keep up with the weight gain and gain some endurance and muscle.
__________________________________________________________________________________
I think that is everything. Thanks a ton for any answer. I can always put up details as necessary.
I want to mention, with the eating thing, I have food allergies - eggs, peanuts, limes, grapes, tomatoes, and mangoes.
answered: SKIN*
Try a facewash with 5% Glycolic acid, (find it at sephora) tone, and moisturize your skin twice a day. Glycolic is an exfoliant, its rearranges cellular connections on your skins surface and picks up dead skin cells that can block your pores. Since it is a strong exfoliator, try to use a moisturizer with spf so you dont damage your skin in the sun. It sounds like you are almost overdoing it with the product. all you need is those three simple things in your skin care regime, your skin will only be able to handle so much product to absorb, so less is definitely more.
You could use a spot treatment for acne, but Don't pick at your face, and try to keep your hands away from your face as much as possible. (bacteria spreads when you pick, and bacteria is ALL OVER your fingers and waiting to enter your pores and CLOG THEM!)
As far as the scars go, the gycolic will help, but try a vitamin E serum (only where you have the scars) every night before bed, it should also reduce their appearance.
MAKEUP*
you can still keep your routine simple and look great!
instead of a foundation, you can try a tinted moisturizer. this can be a two in one step, since moisturizing is vital to your skins health, you are hitting two birds with one stone by using tinted moisturizer instead of a foundation. They are a little more sheer than foundations though, so I would use a concealer stick over it.
Mascara is definitely one of my key makeup products. The key is finding the right brush. if you have short lashes, a long thinner wand head is better. for longer lashes, use a fatter brush to add volume. you can also make it funky and easy with colored mascaras, you can even find them at walmart. try to twirl your mascara brush as you apply, and wriggle it at the root of your lashes to get root to tip coverage, it has a way of lining the eye and defining it the more in depth you apply (so by making sure you have full coverage, you lose the need to use eyeliner!!!
You can also find a tinted lip balm it is simple and effective for lip color, and less messy. Gloss is great too; a light pink works for absolutely everyone, as long as it is a bit sheer.
Use a cheek color, (bronzer or blush)
