Problem: Article: Choose a cleanser that is meant for sensitive skin. Harsh cleansers may irritate your skin and cause or intensify your existing acne. Avoid scrubbing or using exfoliating products or toners on the areas where you get body acne most often.  Take a shower after you get sweaty to prevent your pores from getting clogged. Acne is more likely to develop if you have too much excess oil on your skin for a long period of time. Make sure that you take a shower after your workout or whenever you get too sweaty.  Use your hands to wash your body. It may seem like a good idea to scrub your body if you have body acne, but it can make your acne worse. Using a sponge or a washcloth can also irritate your acne, so it is best to wash your body using your hands if you are prone to body acne.  Try using an over-the-counter body wash specifically formulated for acne.  Some examples include Neutrogena, Oxy, or Clean and Clear.  Most products of this nature have a main ingredient such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. If you have oily hair, it is possible to develop pimples on your scalp if enough oil is allowed to collect there. Wash your hair every day if you have oily hair. Use a gentle shampoo so that your scalp does not become irritated from daily washing. Steer clear of hair styling products that contain oil. Products like pomades, gels, and mousses may also cause acne to develop on your scalp. Moisturizing your skin is important, but some moisturizers can intensify your acne. Look for moisturizers and other body products that are labeled noncomedogenic.  Also look for oil-free and nonacnegenic treatments. These types of products are less likely to irritate your skin or make your acne worse. It is important to protect your skin when you spend time in the sun, but some oil-based sunscreens may clog your pores. Choose a sunscreen that is labeled “oil-free” to help prevent acne breakouts and protect your skin from the sun. Make sure to apply 1-2 ounces of sunscreen at least 30 minutes before exposure to the sun and reapply every two hours. Some natural remedies may be effective in reducing body acne. The most effective natural treatment is tea tree oil, which has antibacterial properties.  Products containing tea tree oil can be applied to the skin directly, as a topical treatment.
Summary: Wash your skin with a gentle cleanser when you bathe or take a shower. Wash your hair every day. Choose noncomedogenic products for your body. Apply oil-free sunscreen before sun exposure. Try tea tree oil.

Problem: Article: The hot wax can sometimes splash up the sides of the jar when you pour it in. To avoid a mess, place a small funnel in jar, and pour the wax through it into the jar. Fill each jar in the same way. Depending on the size of the jars and how much you fill them, you may have some wax left over. To dispose of it, wait for it to solidify and then scrape it out of the pot or bowl. Never pour hot wax down the sink -- you’ll wind up clogging your pipes. Once all of the jars are filled with wax, you have to wait for the wax to cool completely before you can light the candles. As the wax cools, it will solidify, which should take approximately 1 hour. You can tell that the candles are finished cooling when the wax becomes fully opaque. When the candles are completely cool, remove the end of the wick from the chop stick or pen and use a pair of scissors to trim it to your desired length. In most cases, a ½-inch (1.27-cm) wick is sufficient. Light the candle and enjoy the scent that you’ve created. In addition to making candles for yourself, these homemade aromatherapy candles make ideal handmade gifts. You can customize the scent for each recipient for a lovely, personalized present.
Summary: Funnel the wax into the jars. Allow the candles to solidify. Trim the wicks and enjoy the candles.

Problem: Article: Even if the label on your shirt says "pre-shrunk," it would still be a good idea to wash it. This will remove any potential starch or stiffener that might prevent the paint from sticking properly. Spread some newspaper on a table, and get anything that might get ruined out of the way. It might also be a good idea to have some paper towels (for blotting) and a cup of water (for rinsing the paintbrush) handy as well. The cardboard should be about the same size as the shirt. You want it to slip inside the shirt easily without stretching it. This will prevent the paint from bleeding onto the back of the shirt. You can also use a folded up newspaper for this. Even an old magazine or catalogue will do in a pinch. If you are nervous about free-handing the design, you can always trace your design first using a stencil and a permanent marker, and then fill it in. Consider using a few paintbrushes in different shapes and sizes; a flat brush will give you some nice, crisp edges while a pointy brush is great for detail.  If you want your design to have multiple colors, such as a smiles face, do the background color first. Let the paint dry, then do the details. Try to get paint brushes meant for painting fabric. They usually have stiffer bristles made from taklon. Avoid natural brushes, such as camel hair, as they will be too soft to hold the thick paint and create nice designs. If you'd like, you can speed up the drying process by blowing the paint with a hair dryer. Do not remove the cardboard inside the shirt until the paint is completely dry. Once the paint dries, you can flip it around and paint the back as well. Keep the cardboard inside the shirt and let the paint dry. If the paint is sticking to the cardboard, don't panic. Simply wiggle your finger between the shirt and the cardboard to pry it apart. Discard the cardboard when you are done, or save it for another project.
Summary: Get a plain t-shirt and wash to remove any shrinking. Set up your work area. Place a piece of cardboard inside the T-shirt. Paint your design using fabric paint. Let the paint dry. Remove the cardboard. Finished.

Problem: Article: You will need to take a walk through a place that you are very familiar with such as your home. As you walk through your home you will need to be familiar with 52 spots within your home to store in your mental journal. Choose 5 rooms in your home. For example, choose your bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen, and office. Picture yourself at the doorway as you look around the room and spot 10 large pieces of furniture. Picture them as you look clockwise. The items must be large and avoid choosing the same item for different rooms. For example, don’t choose a tv in the bedroom if you’ve chosen it for the living room. Choosing items for your bedroom can be similar to, starting at your left, #1 computer, #2 bed, #3 dresser, #4 mirror, #5 tv, etc. Choose large items like your desk instead of the pencil on your desk. Drill these items until you can repeat them with your eyes closed in rapid succession. You don’t want to stumble or be confused so if something persistently gives you trouble, think about finding an easier item to remember. You may use flashcards or physically walk around the room over and over, whatever helps lock the 50 items into your memory. You will need two extra pieces of furniture because a deck of cards has 52 cards to remember. You may choose two pieces of furniture in another room or two landmarks in your backyard or garage.
Summary:
Take an imaginary walk. Memorize 10 pieces of furniture inside each room. Repeat these 50 items in your head. Add the final two pieces of furniture.
