7. Hi Katrina, I am 15 years old and I want to take good care of my skin but I don't know what kind of skin care products to use. I never know which products would suit my skin. I go to the store and get completely lost. I am fair and have oily skin. I also get acne breakouts. For my acne I am using Proactive. I don't know what kind of cleanser/toner/skin freshener/ moisturizer to use. Which facial cream should I wear? What kind of eye cream or lip exfoliator/balm should I use? Also I use to have very silky and shinny hair. But slowly now they have become very thick and frizzy. Which shampoo should I use? Currently these are the products that I use: Face: Olay active hydrating (oil free) Lips: Vaseline Sunblock: Neutrogena SPF 45 Body lotion: Jergens shave minimizing moisturizer, Aveeno Moisturizing lotion with Natural Colloidal Oatmeal Shampoo: Pantene Pro-v 2 in 1 Smooth and sleek (smoothes straight or wavy hair) I just want to have healthy skin and look fresh. I would truly appreciate your help. Thanks J

32. I am 25 years old, and am an Indian. I have dark circles and fine lines/wrinkles around my eyes. For the past 4 years, I have been using concealers to try and camouflage the dark circles.

Your advise and time will be very much appreciated. Many thanks.
    
    
33. Just recently I wore make up to a party. As soon as I got home from the party I washed my face to get rid of all the gunk. Later in the afternoon after I woke up my eyes felt slighty heavy. My eyelids, above and under my eyes looked wrinkled. I used Johnson Baby shampoo and a warm wash cloth to srub the area. This is the third time that this has happened to me. Is it caused by the brand of makeup or am I just allergic to it?
