) If you spot the spots, get out of my face
My mild acne used to irritate me a lot, but after trying every hormonal cream, spot treatment, dietary change and miracle cure advertised on infomercials I decided to accept the facial hissy fit and let the gorilla sit in the room unmentioned.But adult acne, it seems, is not a taboo topic even during a first-time meet and greet or mid-conversation with friends. Apparently when the gorilla is not only in the room, but also sitting on your face, people find it harder to ignore.
As i was enjoying the crossword at my local cafe recently, a stranger in an adjoining seat gave me a warm sympathetic smile and said, "You need to drink more water, you know, for your face." He then swirled a pointed finger gesturing around the outline of my face. My inner monologue screamed, "And you need to mind your own business more, you know, to save me having to punch you in the face," but the outer replied, "I already drink a lot of water, thank you," and I buried my shamed face back into the paper.

) Fast Forward Fashion: Aretha Franklin, Martha Stewart, Valentino
Here's one way to put some bounce back into the economy-Swedish fashion company ACNE has a new viral video ad campaign featuring a bevy of pretty young boys bouncing on a trampoline in nothing more than the label's adorable mismatched socks and underwear. Consider yourselves stimulated.Fashion, some may say, is often a puzzle, but rarely is it a $750, limited-edition, Stephen Meisel jigsaw puzzle! The prolific photographer (made gaymous for taking all the photos in Madonna's Sex Book) who has scant work available for public consumption, has signed 1000 copies of this collector's item. Get it at Barney's now before some other queen does.
Set your DVRs! What happens when one of fashion's biggest names meets one of daytime TV's most powerful dames? Valentino will be on The Martha Stewart Show on Friday, March 20th to promote his documentary, Valentino: The Last Emperor, which hits select theaters on March 18th. More>>

) Sweet nothing
After a cystic acne breakout a few years ago, my left cheek had developed a few deep scars. I decided recently to have a series of Fraxel treatments as I heard they are the most effective way of reducing the appearance of scars.After my first treatment just one week ago, I have noticed a HUGE difference. My deep scars have just about levelled off and my skin looks smoother. I'm due for another 3 treatments in 4 weeks with a month between each one and can't wait to see the results.
Anyone with scarring and enough cash to dish out should look into this procedure as it will have profound results on your appearance.
