Article: About once a week, use a face mask that's formulated for your skin type. There are a number of different masks on the market, from clay masks to sheet masks, and each one is designed to target certain skin problems or concerns. Choose the one that's right for you, and apply it to clean skin. Follow any instructions on the packaging, such as whether to apply the mask to wet or dry skin, how long to leave it on, and how to remove it. For instance, if you have dry skin, you might use a nourishing mask made of white clay. Try making your own face mask out of natural ingredients like avocado, honey, and oats. Even if you normally have clear skin, you may get breakouts now and then, especially around the time you get your period. If that happens, visit a drug store or supermarket and pick up a cream with benzoyl peroxide. Apply a little of the cream over the bump 1-2 times a day, being sure to follow any packaging instructions. Don't pop your pimples. This can make the infection worse and it may lead to scarring. These creams are available over-the-counter, so you won't need a prescription. However, if you have severe acne, it's a good idea to see a dermatologist. If you get dry, flaky patches of skin on your face, moisturizer alone may not be enough to treat them. In that case, cover the patches with a thin layer of petroleum jelly or spread olive oil over the area. This will provide deep moisturizing power, but it will be specifically targeted to your problem areas. Don't attempt to exfoliate the dry patches away, as this can make them worse. If you're following a regular skin care routine but you still get oily halfway through the day, try patting your face gently with blotting papers. These papers will lift away oil without disturbing your makeup or over-drying your skin. It's totally normal to spot stray hairs between your eyebrows, above your top lip, or under your chin. However, if they bother you, it's fine to tweeze them. Grasp a hair with a sharp pair of tweezers, trying to get as close as you can to the base of the hair. Then, pull the hair sharply in the same direction it's growing. The hair should slide out by the roots. For more widespread facial hair, consider visiting an esthetician for waxing, threading, or bleaching. You can even ask about more permanent procedures like laser hair removal or epilation. If you notice that the skin under your eyes looks puffy or swollen, lie on your back and placed sliced cucumbers over your eyes for about 15 minutes. The cucumbers will help soothe your eyes while reducing any puffiness. In addition, the time you spend relaxing will help you feel more rested and rejuvenated, which can also show on your skin. If you don't have any cucumbers at home, place 2 spoons in the freezer for about 5 minutes, then place them over your eyes for 10-15 minutes. Start by poking out your lower lip as far as you can. Hold that for about 30 seconds, then tilt your head down so your chin is pointed at your chest, and stay like that for about 30 seconds as well. Then, look up at the ceiling and push your bottom lip out. These exercises will work your facial muscles, which can help your face look more toned and smooth.

Problem: Article: Friends are typically loyal to one another, meaning that you shouldn't reflect back to countless occasions when they have betrayed you, and vice versa. It's hard for two people to be friends and not ever let one another down. But, betrayals shouldn't be standard in the relationship. If this person never talks about you behind your back, spreads rumors about you, or disappoints you repeatedly in other ways, they probably are your friend. Friends are infamous for taking secrets to the grave. If you shared information that you did not want known by the general public, your friend keeps their lips sealed. One of the positives about going through a breakup, losing a loved one, or having a setback in life is that you can count on your friends to be there. This person shouldn't only be around during the good times, if they are truly your friend. Think about a time when you were having a really hard time in your life. Was this person there for you? A true friend should be with you through the good, bad, and ugly. They should offer to help you however they can, and bring you back from the darkness into the light again. A true friend would never think of leaving you during a difficult time in your life. A fake friend, or someone who you are not close to, will probably only stick around when things are going well. They might even think or say that your problems are a burden to them. That's the mark of a fake friend. A true friend will not be jealous when you share any achievement or success in your life. They will celebrate your accomplishments instead trying to tear you down. To decide if this is an authentic friendship or not, pay attention to see if your friend sticks around while you reach new goals and high points in your life. If you know that you can count on this person at the drop of a dime, they probably are your friend. Good friends prioritize their pals over other relationships and situations, especially when they know you need them. For example, even if your friend is away on vacation, they'll still make time to call back and check in on you when you're sick.
Summary: Reflect on how you treat one another. Determine if they keep your secrets. See if they have your back during hard times. See if they are happy when you achieve your goals. Notice if they prioritize your friendship.

Even if the zipper is structurally sound, sometimes some coaxing is needed. Gently unzipping the zipper further and then trying to zip it back up will sometimes solve the issue, especially if the zipper just caught on something. This step is common, so you may have already tried it. If you haven't, try pinching the fabric below the zipper to squeeze the garment into its zipped position. Do this while gently coaxing the slider of the zipper upwards. This step can help if the issue is caused by the teeth trying to pull away from each other. Another common tactic that you can try is pinching above the zipper. This tactic helps gather teeth together when they're having a hard time catching, and it can help in cases where the zipper is having trouble because your tailored slim-fit trousers or flirty cocktail dress are a little too tight. If the zipper is still sluggish, closely examine the zipper. Make sure there isn't anything like thread or hair stuck in it. If something is in the way, pull it out to see if that fixes the problem, as it can keep your zipper from closing easily. You may need to move the zipper back and forth as you try to pull the thread or hair out of the zipper. One of the most common problem areas for a zipper is actually the teeth. Over time, the teeth can get bent out of alignment. Look to see if all of your zipper's teeth are straight and in line. If they're not, you can use pliers to pull them back into place. Just don't be too rough, as you can pull the teeth off. Another option is to just replace the zipper completely. You can do it yourself at home, or you can take it to a tailor's to be replaced. Most sewing stores sell zippers you can use to replace the one you have. However, having a professional do it will be easier, and it doesn't cost too much.
