INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The mobile version of the website is free, works on any smart phone, and can be found at http://m.ebay.com The process of locating and bidding on an item is essentially the same on your mobile device as it is on your desktop. The only difference is that mobile versions of eBay are visually formatted in a way that makes them more accessible on a mobile device. Alternatively, access eBay by downloading a mobile app. You can download a free mobile app for eBay for all major smart phone brands. The appearance of eBay may look different through the app than it does when accessed via the website, but you can still use the app to search and bid on items as usual. If using the mobile website, type a description of the item into the search bar on the homepage as usual, pressing the magnifying glass icon to initiate the search. Select "Browse Categories," located beneath the search bar on the home screen, if you do not have a specific item you are searching for and would like to look through the product categories. If using a mobile app, the same basic technique still applies. The search bar will be positioned toward the top of the app's initial start-up screen, usually in the upper right corner or the upper center depending on the version of the app you have. The "Browse Categories" option is also listed on the initial screen but is usually positioned somewhere beneath your saved searches or favorites. Make sure you have a thorough understanding of the product description, price, and condition. Since bids on eBay are considered binding contracts, it is vital that you understand exactly what you are bidding on before you place your bid. Look at the seller's rating. A trustworthy seller will have a rating somewhere around 94 percent or higher. A seller with more ratings is also more popular and more reliable than one with few. " The button is the same for both mobile web and mobile app versions of eBay. This starts the bidding process. Sign in or create an account. If you are using a mobile app, you will likely already be signed in. If you are merely using the mobile version of the website through the phone's Internet browser, you may or may not be signed in at this point. Choose your maximum bid. Touch the bid box with your finger to highlight it and use the on-screen keyboard to type in the number. Your maximum bid is the absolute highest amount of money you are willing to pay. Select "Continue" after you finish typing. Your bid will start off at the lowest amount possible. Due to eBay's incremental bidding system, your bid will continue to increase as other buyers place bids until your maximum amount has been reached. Only place bids you are willing to see through. A bid is a binding contract. As a result, you should only bid on items you absolutely want and your maximum bid amount should only be an amount that you are willing to pay. You can always raise your maximum bid, if desired, simply by placing another bid on the item at a higher amount. Don't plan on retracting your bid. The only time eBay will allow you to retract your bid is if you accidentally entered the wrong amount and reenter the correct amount immediately, or if the item's description has dramatically changed since your original bid was placed. Review the maximum bid amount once more to make sure that it is accurate and use your finger to press on the "Confirm Bid" option. If you use the mobile app version of eBay instead of the mobile website, you will be notified whenever someone outbids you.

SUMMARY: Access eBay's mobile webpage using your smart phone. Search for the right item. Look over the details of the item. Select "Place Bid. Confirm your bid. Expect notifications.

Use lukewarm water; hot water can damage sensitive skin. Pat your face dry using a clean towel. Don't rub or scrub! You can also choose a plant-oil based cleaner. Grapeseed and sunflower oils are common bases for these cleaners, and can help absorb and dissolve the extra oil from your skin. Some people have allergies or sensitivities to essential oils, so before you put any essential oil into your steam cleanse, test it on your skin. Mix together three drops of essential oil with teaspoon of a carrier oil, such as sunflower oil. Apply a few drops to the pad of an adhesive bandage and put the bandage on the inside of your forearm. Leave for 48 hours. If your skin is red, itchy, swollen, or develops a rash, do not use that essential oil for your steam cleanse. Thyme, oregano, clove, and cinnamon oil can cause skin irritation in some people. Many citrus oils can cause burning on your skin if it is exposed to sunlight after application. Bring the water to a boil and let it boil for a minute or two. Several essential herbal oils have antibacterial or antiseptic properties, allowing them to kill the bacteria and other microorganisms on your skin that can promote acne. You should never ingest essential oils, as many are toxic or cause unpleasant side effects when consumed. Here are some good options: Spearmint or peppermint. Add one drop per quart of water; you can increase this if necessary. Both peppermint and spearmint oil contain menthol, which has antiseptic properties. Thyme. Thyme has antibacterial properties and increases blood circulation by opening up blood vessels. Calendula. Calendula has antimicrobial properties and can help accelerate skin healing. Lavender. In addition to being very soothing, lavender oil has antibacterial properties. Rosemary. Rosemary is naturally antibacterial and is especially effective against P. acnes. Oregano. Oregano oil is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Avoid tea tree oil for steam baths, as it is highly toxic when consumed. You can substitute teaspoon of the dried herb for essential oil if you can't find the essential oil. After you have added the herbs and boiled for one minute, remove the pot from the heat. Move it to a stable, comfortable area, such as a countertop or table. You may want to place the hot pot on a trivet or cloth. Place your face over the steaming pot. Close your eyes. Keep your face at least 12 inches from the water. The steam will dilate your blood vessels and open up your pores, but getting too close to the hot water could damage or even burn your skin. Try to relax and take even, calming breaths. Keep your face over the steam for 10 minutes. If you begin to feel uncomfortable before the 10 minutes is up, move away from the steam. Use lukewarm water to rinse your face, and then pat it dry with a clean towel. Don't rub your skin. You can use a brand of moisturizer that will not block pores, such as Olay, Neutrogena, or Clinique. You can also make your own acne-fighting moisturizer using natural oils. Check the labels of store-brand moisturizers. Choose one that states that it will not clog pores (noncomedogenic) and is oil-free.. You can safely use this steam cleanse up to twice a day: once in the morning and once at night. After two weeks, you should see improvement in your acne. Once you see improvement, you can go down to once a day.
