I am confused. When applying perfume should you spray it on pulse points when you are undressed or dressed? I like doing the spary and walkthrough technique but my friend tells me putting it on your clothes is wrong as your skin distributes the scent.

A lot of the teens on the skin care board are really using a lot of benzoyl peroxide. Should these products maybe state on the label or something that benzoyl peroxide is used to induce skin cancer in lab animals for skin cancer research?

Department of Dermatology Skin Diseases Research Center, University Hospitals of Cleveland, OH.
It is known that the free-radical-generating compound, benzoyl peroxide (BPO) enhances malignant conversion of murine skin benign papillomas into carcinomas.
If there is such a difference between rodent and human skin, why are they using the rodents to test skin cancer drugs for humans? What, the results of the drug tests are okay and helpful for humans but how we get it is different?
FDA MedWatch…

Benzoyl peroxide has been shown to be a tumor promoter and progression agent in a
number of animal studies. The clinical significance of this is unknown.
Benzoyl peroxide in acetone at doses of 5 and 10 mg administered twice per week induced
skin tumors in transgenic Tg.AC mice in a study using 20 weeks of topical treatment.
In a 52 week dermal photocarcinogenicity study in hairless mice, the median time to onset
of skin tumor formation was decreased and the number of tumors per mouse
increased following chronic concurrent topical administration of BenzaClin Topical Gel
with exposure to ultraviolet radiation (40 weeks of treatment followed by 12 weeks of
observation).

If it is used to turn benign papillomas (like a pimple) to malignant papillomas in lab animals at ONLY 5-10% applied ONLY 2 times a week from ONE source, How can the chem manufacturer state that it doesn’t?

Hello everyone.
I need a skin care product that is for dry skin and is good… I also need some sort of skin care product that can make my skin more even and clear of pimples or close to it. And I have like a tanned sorta skin, like a light brown colour, so yeah.

If anyone can give me the name of a product or products for better skin, other than proactive, then I would grateful to hear about it.

Thanks =)

I would like to start using a department store bought skin care line. (Origins, Clinique, etc) I’m wondering which is best. I have mild acne that I want to keep in check and normal skin.

SoxWin asked:


I am extremely sensitive to perfume (even the sligtest whiff makes me very sick, very quickly). I just bought this air purifier, and my father decided to test it while I was gone by spraying a bottle of perfume about 10 times in the living room to see if the air purifier worked.

Now the entire house absolutely reeks, as does the air purifier machine. Opening windows does not help. The tuff was sprayed oer 8 hour ago, and I need to find a way to get rid of the perfume because I have already thrown up 2 times in 30 min since I got home (sorry for the detail).

Remember, even the smallest whiff makes me very ill, and the smell is EVERYWHERE (it’s all over the house, on everything). Do I have to move out? Please help. Thank you. God bless.
Thank you for the answers so far. Please keep giving me your best suggestions. I am so sick from this, and I’m afraid that I ay be forced from my home.
Please keep the suggestions coming. Anyone with direct experience with this problem would be a huge help.

Hi, I am currently 10 weeks in pregnancy. I did not change the skin care products that I usually used as before. Recently, I start to concern whether these skin care products are healthy for my baby. But my friend told me since we only use small amount moisturize cream on my face, it should be safe? Can anyone tell me whether this is true. Thanks!
