  • Is your skin oily? Mine is and I still get minor breakouts in my 40s. It just runs in the family. I stopped using foundation at all at about 17 and that helped a lot.

  • It bothers you because you are a nice person and don't like being thought of that way but her reaction might have been one of embarrassment in the moment and she may even have gone home feeling bad about her overaction.

  • I have to say that this is the last place I lose and I wish they would go down a bit I've just gone from a 32 G to a 32 GG and that is as real as mildly fibriotic breasts get.
