Ref 535. hi Gloria
please help.what's wrong with my sister, she's obsessed with her looks.
she's always looking in the mirror.
do you think she has a personality problem? or does she try hard to
be someone she isn't? im just wondering? im not jealous of her just
worried if somethings wrong. thanks. ]
melanie
Response to Ref 535. Melanie, It would be helpful if your sister would visit a counseling service to talk about her feelings. You may want to talk to a counselor also to explore your feelings of maybe feeling responsibility for your sister or to reassure you about your concerns; we are not always able to help those we love the most.
Gloria
Ref 536. I have heard about the products that remove hair forever. It is some kind of lotion that kills the hair cells, or something like that. Are they safe to use? Do you recommend it?
Response to Ref 536. I have not heard of a cream that kills the hair follicles. Try waxing until they are proofed safe.

Ref 542. Hello,
I have a small problem. I have a clear face without any pimples or acne but within the last week or two these small red dots have appeared on my checks(about one inch below my eyes). They only appear about two or three at a time. But they are not pimples. They are there for 3 to 5 days and then they go away, then my face is clear for a couple of days then a few more will appear. I wash my face twice a day and when those red dots appear I just leave them alone. I don't put anything on them. I eat a healthy diet and I exercise regularly. Please help. I really don't like them on my face. Thank you.
Response to Ref 542. Write down everything you eat and note the day you feel the red dots coming, even before you can see them. Check dairy products especially in connection with the dots. Let me know what you discover.

problem.My wife and my daughter are also facing this problem.
Response to Ref 550. Imran Khan, I have a client who spent 10 years in Saudi Arabia as an interpreter. It damaged her skin greatly, but then she did not protect it from the sun and use Hydrating products to replace the moisture that the heat takes from the skin. Let me know if you want me to send you and your family products to protect your skin.

Gloria
Ref 555. Dear Gloria, I have a big, round face and small eyes. How can I make them appear biger? Thanks

Response to Ref 557. Victoria, I had very oily hair as a teen and I would go for a week without washing my hair about twice a year to slow the oil production. Twice a day is too much washing.

Gloria
Ref 559. I'm getting married in 10 days and I've decided to do my own makeup because I've never been really happy with make-overs done by professional artists.

What eye make-up should I use to make them appear greener? Thanks tons!
Response to Ref 570. I have the exerciser that makes the lips fuller. What unusual eye colors. And it's great that you want to show them off. Try a gray/purple eyeliner. Let me know how it works.
Gloria

I appreciate it a lot.Thanks.
Response to Ref 572. With pale skin, dark hair and black eyes you will hardly ever need makeup. Wash your skin at night and use a medicated gel on the pimples.
Gloria
Ref 573. Dear Gloria,
I have seen this product advertised in magazines and on TV. It is to clear up acne. A small little metal thing you press on each individual zit that sends some kind of charge is supposed to kill the bacteria and make the zit heal within 1 or 2 days. The product is expensive (90$) so I was wondering if this would be worth the investment. Is it possible that a product like this can actually work. (The product is made by Igia, I believe.)
Please give me your opinion on this.
thanx alot,
Tayla, 16
Response to Ref 573. Tayla, Save your money. Find a professional skin care salon and get some personal advise. Let them train you to clean your skin.
Gloria
Ref 574. Hi Gloria!
I have bad blackheads on the sides of my nose. What could I do about them either with brand products or cheaper household ones?
Thanks a lot,
Juliette.
Response to Ref 574. Juliette, Clean your skin at night and use a medicated gel on the sides of your nose. Blot the oil with a tissue during the day.
Gloria
Ref 575. Dear Gloria,
I have very deep, dark pure brown eyes. What could I do to them to make them an enviable, gorgeous beauty? They have no other colour and right now all I am using for them is black mascara.
thanx a lot,
Diana.
Response to Ref 575. Diana, Use earth tone shadows and try a medium brown eyeliner.
Gloria
Ref 576. my face shape is between heartshaped and oval. What could I do to emphasis the heartshape, coz it looks really pretty? Also, I find it hard to make my eyebrows into the shape I desire, which is like kate Winslet's because the hair won't come out and it is quite painful. Are there any places that you can go to where they do it for you?( I live in Scotland) Thanks,
evie
Response to Ref 576. Evie, Take a couple of eyebrows out at a time and let the area rest until you clean the hairs from under the brows. Don't pluck the hairs from the top. Also, there are times of the month that the pain can be more than other times. Find the times that are best for you.
Gloria
Ref 577. Someone at my academy said that they had had an analysis which said that they should stop wearing brown mascara and wear black.
What is an analysis? because I would like to have one.
Thanx alot,
Elise xxx
P.S. I live in Britain, so does this mean I can't get one? The girl got her analysis on holiday in the U.S.A.
Response to Ref 577. Elise, there are Color Analysis all over the world. My book Grow Young has a chapter that teaches you how to analyze your own colors.
Gloria
Ref 578. Gloria,
Hi, I live in Alaska. I was just wondering what I could do to get rid of these black things on my nose and chin. They are really small. I don't think they have a name though. Thankyou.
Niazana
Response to Ref 578. Niazana, I think you are talking about blackheads. Clean your skin at night and do not apply oily products to these areas of your face.
Gloria
Ref 579. Hi, I am 13 years old. I am a Filipino and I have freckles on one sid of my face...how can I remove them>
Vicky
Response to Ref 579. Vicky, Are you exposed to the sun more on that side of your face than the other? Wear sun screen anytime you are out in the sun. Wear hats.
Gloria
Ref 580. Dear Gloria,
I'm an Asian college student with golden-bronze skin and relatively large eyes. My eyes are a very dark brown (almost black). Do you have any special makeup tips for Asian women?
-Karen
Response to Ref 580. Karen, You can wear most any color you want to. Your eye color is a great back drop for even exotic colors for evening.
Gloria
Ref 582. Gloria.
I am 17. I have light blonde-brown hair with faint red highlights. My eyes are hazel and change color a lot.(I like their shape) My skin is fairly good except for an occational breakout. I don't get in the sun at all so I'm very pale. My problem is that I don't have any idea what colors of makeup would look good on me. I prefer natural. I've tried all shades of lipstick but I don't feel comfortable wearing any of it because I'm not sure if it looks okay. Help?
Response to Ref 582. Try a coral colored lip gloss. Also use a gray/purple eyeliner with a dark skin tone eye shadow.
Gloria
Ref 583. Gloria,
Hi! Every time I get money I go straight to the hair or makeup
section, but what will help me look natural, but pretty. I am mixed
with African American & Caucasian, and do not tend to break out, but
have some small pimples. I wash every night with Noxema. I have brown
eyes, light brown hair, and have golden undertones. What type of
makeup will look best with my skin, and eyes? What will make my eyes
bigger and look lighter than what they are? Please help!

Gloria
Ref 584. Gloria,
I am a 17 year old male model. When i have photo shoots i have to wear heaps of makeup. my skin is usually very good, but all this makeup causes my skin to break out. I was wondering how i could combat this problem. Also, when i wear sunscreem and play sport, i also find that my skin is deceptible for breakouts. it is starting to annoy me. Thanks
Response to Ref 584. You can use a tinted powder instead of heavy makeup and apply the eye makeup you need. The sun screen may be breaking you out - try different brands.
Gloria
Ref 585. Hi, I am 12 years old. I have shoulder lenth brown hair with brown eyes and freckles on my face. I am a tomboy. Everyone tells me I should do my hair different then just leave it down. I am not very pretty. What hair style could I do to make me look prettier? I can't ware makeup until I am sixteen. Please help me. Thankyou very much for your time. Rebecca
Response to Ref 585. Rebecca, An old fashioned pony tail could be just the thing. The hair is out of the way allowing your face to show and can be very cute.
Gloria
Ref 586. Dear Gloria,
I have painful pimples around my nose. They're red and hurt, almost ache, at the touch. I haven't a clue as to what to do about them. Also, I wear black mascara and it"crumbles" during the day. It falls under my eyes where my makeup sticks to it like glue! What to do?! Help!
Dacre'
Response to Ref 586. Dacre, STOP wearing that mascara! As a former model I have always had mascara that did not flake; it could ruin a career. I can get you mascara that does not flake.
Gloria
Ref 587. Hello Gloria: this is my first time on your web page. I have a couple questions, what can i use to get rid of those nagging dark circles under my eyes? I get plent of sleep, but they are still there. My second question is what can I do for my eye lashes to stayed curled up. I use a curling squeezing thing, but they still "fall" by the end of the day. Thank you, Michelle
Response to Ref 587. Michelle, the eyelash curler is not an all day curl. Have you checked your diet for the dark circles? Which days are they the lightest and the darkest? Write again.
Gloria
Ref 588. how do i get my makeup to look good i mean real good
Response to Ref 588. Apply it to a clean moist face in the most natural colors that match your skin.
Gloria
Ref 589. Hi Gloria,
I am a esthetician student and will be graduating in July and I need to find out more on makeup. Do you know of a company that sells a makeup kit that I can use for all different skin types? The makeup we have at school is very poor and I want to put together a portifio to be able to use when I go interviewing. Thanks Kim
Response to Ref 589. Kim, The school should have a list of suppliers for makeup kits. And you may have to put together your own kit over a period of time. Good luck! Where are you located?
Gloria
