Question #1: Sterilize makeup brush for use around facial piercing? 10 pts?
I got my eyebrow pierced yesterday and it looks great so far but I want to take VERY good care of it cuz my skin is so sensitive. I brush my eyebrows regularly to give them shape and I want to brush the pierced eyebrow a little bit around (not too close to) the piercing. How can I sterilize my eyebrow brush to make this safe?
Question #2: Do you find this story about these interracial couples hilarious, maybe the south isn't so bad?
So my friend from high school (graduated in 1996) is this beautiful Puerto Rican chick, basically the same skin color as a White person and she has brown hair, different facial features but regardless she is beautiful. Two years after high school she met a tall Indian guy (India, but he had the same skin color as most Middle Eastern and some Italian people), two started dating and two years after finishing their degrees they were married. Well they knew that their interracial union was sort of out of the norm, they move to Southern California. Daily she tells me she was called all sorts of names by Hispanic males and Hispanic females for marrying an Indian guy. One day her husband gets assaulted by 5 Hispanic males because they didn't like his type being with her and he is in ER.
So they relocate in 2005 (they arrive in California in 2000) to Atlanta, Georgia. Well, they have been all over the deep south and no one cares or shows open resentment about the two being together while in Los Angeles the two caught hatred from Hispanics and jokes from Blacks and Whites for being together. Isn't this story sort of hilarious?
I always heard California is supposed to be the stronghold of interracial dating and that in the deep south they hated that type of stuff but no one cared. I talked to her on facebook about it.

Question #3: How do I get rid of acne scars, visible pores, and uneven skin tone?
Hi, I'm a 14 year old girl with acne scars, visible pores, and an uneven skin tone. I was wondering how I can correct this. I have made a new skin regimen for myself:
-use a cleanser when I wake up and before bed
-use toner after cleansing
-moisturize with facial lotion after toning
-exfoliate once a week
-use a spot treatment on any pimples I might have before bed
All of the products are part of the Burt's Bees Acne Solutions, which is made with natural ingredients and has salicylic acid, which is good for acne. If I take care of my skin by using this routine, will the scars, pores, and uneven skin tone correct themselves naturally or do I need separate products for my problems? Thanks for your help :)

Question #4: What's your favourite skin care products (for oily skin)?
Facial scrub?
Moisturiser?
Toner?
Face mask?
I'm trying to sort my skin out, because it gets very oily, which then leads to blackheads and spots etc...
I've started drinking more water, trying to eat more fruit and veg- Is there anything else I can do to try and help my skin to clear up?

Question #5: I need some help with hair removal, please!?
Hey,
Say that I am a 13 year old girl with a LOT of facial hair (please don't laugh). I have very pale skin but darker hair - making facial hair more visible. My eyebrows are very thick and bushy but I usually pluck them to good results, but what I am concerned about is the hair on my upper lip. I shouldn't care, and really I don't - but you have to play by others' rules to set your own. I've tried all typed of waxing, and am never going back - I have so much hair that it doesn't rip out a quarter of it all (on one side) - I am completely adverse to using any chemicals, I'm a little young for laser and such, I hate needles, and I have EXTREMELY low pain tolerance. Is there a way?
Thanks so much!!

Question #6: What is your full morning/night skincare routine?
I'm 15, and i'm really big on skincare! I don't wear much makeup at all and i've always put a lot of time into making sure my skin is taken care of. I get a pimple here and there, but i've never had acne. I hope to keep it that way :P
I just want to know (out of curiousity) what everyone's skincare routines are! =]
Here's my current:
-Clearasil Ultra daily face wash (i do it to prevent pimples & acne)
-Clean & Clear makeup dissolving oil-free foaming cleanser
-Origins Checks & Balances face wash
-Bath & Body works body scrub in Sweet Pea
So i use one of those, and then I moisturize with Origins "Have a Nice Day" SPF 15 moisturizer for oily skin.
I'm looking to update my skincare routine, i got bored with it (also because the Origins products are really expensive, $18 for the face wash and $36 for the moisturizer- I don't want to spend that much every time i run out) and i've come up with some products that i'd like to buy. I'll just write it here also :)
-L'Oreal Go 360 Cream cleanser (the pink one)
-Neutrogena SPF 35 Oil Free moisture (i can't find reviews or anything on this so i'm guessing it's new, because it's on neutrogena's website)
-Neutrogena Alcohol free toner (do i need a toner at this age?)
-Neutrogena Oil free acne wash facial cleanser redness soothing
-Clean&Clear morning burst in shower facial
^all of these together costed less than the origins moisturizer =] yay!!
My mom told me that she's used neutrogena for a long time and it's a great brand, so that's why i picked most of their items. If you guys use ANY of the products i mentioned, please please let me know if you like them or not! i'd really appreciate it =]

Question #8: kiehls skin care vs clinique?
so im using the clinique 3 step skin care system, and i like it, but not the moisturizer. so i use the kiehls ultra facial moisturizer SPF 15. i love it :). now im thinking if the kiehls moisturizer is awesome, is their skin care system good? better then clinique?
also, is there a big difference between the kiehls ultra facial moisturizer with SPF 15 and the one that doesnt have SPF? because theres a big price difference, i can just use a sunscreen with the regular one.
im 12 years old. before using clinique i had reallyyyy extreme dry skin, but now its normal and i get more blemishes then when i had dry skin.
thanks <3
