Problem: Article: Confirm that you're using monophasic pills and that you already have the next pack. Make sure that you can discern between the active pills (which suppress your period) and the placebo pills (which trigger a week of withdrawal bleeding). Use a calendar to chart out your birth control schedule for the weeks leading up to the period that you want to skip.  Monophasic pills cause less spotting than multiphasic pills, making them better suited to skipping periods. However, you can still skip a period using multiphasic pills. Ask your gynecologist about which pills you can skip in order to miss your period.  If you aren't already on a birth control program, speak to your gynecologist about starting. Only take birth control pills that you've been prescribed by a licensed physician. If you are taking monophasic pills, then you just need to take the same pill every day. If you are using multiphasic pills, then you'll need to be careful to keep to the schedule. If you aren't sure, ask your gynecologist for advice on how to proceed. If your birth control is packaged with a "period week" of placebo pills, feel free to discard the placebos. They are sugar pills, and you won't need them if you are going to skip your "period." Skip the placebo pills. Begin the next month's birth control packet immediately at the end of the regular three-week regimen. Make sure that you are ready with the new pills as the three-week mark approaches!  Remember: if you're taking birth control, you are not actually getting your period on the fourth "placebo" week of the month. The bleeding that occurs is "withdrawal bleeding" as your body responds to stopping the hormones. Withdrawal bleeding does not pose a serious risk to your health and skipping withdrawal bleeding does not affect your health. It is safe to skip your period indefinitely using hormonal birth control. You may experience minimal spotting. However, this should not last more than a day. Monophasic pills are more stable than multiphasic pills, and thus less likely to trigger spotting. If you've been taking the pills for three or more weeks, you can pause to take a period whenever it's convenient. Simply stop taking your active birth control pills for four days. Then, start taking the active pills again. Consider taking up to a week's break from your contraceptive after any skipped withdrawal period. It's good to give your body a rest.
Summary: Prepare your pills. Take the pill as prescribed for three weeks. Start a new pack of active pills. Stop taking the pills to have a period again.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Chocolate chips and chocolate bars don't usually use true chocolate and do not have the same rich taste as couverture chocolate. However, they are more stable—meaning they can be microwaved—and are a lot cheaper than couverture chocolate.  Always look at the ingredients first to determine the chocolate type. Confectionary chocolate—cheaper chocolates rich in carbohydrates and sugar—contain vegetable fat instead of cocoa butter. You can use any chocolate for molded chocolate. In general, anything with vegetable fat (most store-bought chocolates) is going to be easier to melt but not as tasty. If you're making chocolate with kids, confectionary chocolate is a great choice because it comes in lots of different colors. Couverture chocolate is high-quality and tastes great, but much is more expensive than standard chocolate. It also must be heated with a double-boiler. But if you're picky about your chocolate, couverture chocolate is worth the price!  Check the ingredients to determine the chocolate type. Couverture chocolate contains cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, sugar, and vanilla. Any chocolate with cocoa butter must be tempered, which means you must use a double-boiler. if you’re using couverture chocolate. Heat 1 pound (450 g)  of couverture chocolate on low for 15 minutes. Place your chocolate into the top pan or bowl. Set the heat to low—2 or 3 on your stove dial—and boil it for about 15 minutes. Use a cooking thermometer to make sure the chocolate is 110 °F (43 °C) when it's done. Be sure to stir the chocolate every 1 to 2 minutes once you notice it start to melt.  If you don't own a double-boiler, make one on your own. Never use an oven without the help of an adult.

SUMMARY: Buy chocolate bars or chips for the cheapest option. Purchase couverture chocolate for the best taste. Double-boil the chocolate

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: A hickey can be made anywhere on the body, but normally, hickeys tend to be located on either the neck or chest areas. If you decide to make your hickey on your neck, consider making the hickey on the sides of the neck. Avoid making a hickey in the center of your neck, near your throat, or the area underneath your chin. Get a large eye shadow palette that has an array of colors. The colors you need use will be a dark pink, dark purple, and dark blue.  Use a small makeup brush to apply the eye shadow. Keep in mind, if you have a darker skin tone, you might need to use the darker eye shadow colors more heavily in order to have the hickey mark show up. Gently tap your makeup brush once or twice into the pink eye shadow. Stand in front of a mirror to apply the makeup. Bring the brush up to the area you’re making the hickey, and rub the brush in small, ½ - 1 inch sized ovals on your skin. Be sure you don’t add too much color to the brush. You need to build up the color for the hickey slowly and gradually. Tap a corner of your makeup brush once in the purple eye shadow, and tap the shadow onto the middle area of the hickey. Lightly continue to use the whole brush to make small ovals to form the hickey. Use the brush to help blend the purple coloring out to the edges of the hickey. When in doubt, use less of the darker eye shadow colors. You can also add more, but it’s harder to take off the color once it’s added. Again, tap a small corner of your makeup brush into the blue eye shadow and dab it in the middle area of the hickey. Rub the brush in small ovals, blending the blue out to the edges of the hickey. Since the hickey should already be taking form when you add the blue, you don’t need that much blue makeup. Consider tapping the brush on the side of your finger or the edge of a surface to knock off any excess blue shadow. Spray a thin layer of hair spray or makeup setting spray to make the hickey last longer and avoid coming off on your clothes. This fake hickey will last until you wash it off.
Summary:
Choose the location for the hickey. Obtain a large eye shadow palette. Apply the pink eye shadow. Add the purple eye shadow. Add the blue eye shadow. Set the makeup.
