Simply using cold water on your face/head all the time works better than all that sh** combined.

Cold water doesn't do anything to block UV light.


Sunscreen's good too on a spot that's likely going to get burned(not just tanned). Guess it also depends how dark the person's complexion is in the first place.

Even dark skinned people can get skin cancer.
Cold water does tighten pores but won't remove dirt from pores,steam your face using a bowl of hot water and a towel over your head,for as long as you can take it.Wash with warm water,apply clay mask,remove when dry with cool water,this cleans all the pores out.I never use soap on my face,it's drying.I tend to have dry patches in the winter so I use a really good moisturizer.Wearing a hat in the sun is also good,people squint in bright light,and it causes tiny wrinkles to form after time.

I'm all for washing face fairly regularly with soap/noxzema or whatever, but only combined with cold water. Same when washing hair.

Which might help when judging an old woman's professional success. :wink:

This is a good thing. I hope this trend continues. It's a step towards true egalitarian gender roles.

What's unattractive about total dependency?


I would prefer a man is with me because he want's to be with me. Not because he needs to be with me.

There are variances of dependency. If a man is financially dependent on me, i would still want him to not be socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually dependent on me too. A sense of self worth is mandatory and I would encourage any partner to have activities i am not involved with on a continuing basis, be that work, study, hobby ect to get them out of the house and give them a sense of self.
