Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Don’t let yourself suffer from acne. Reduce irritation from eczema. Pursue similar treatments for psoriasis. Ask about serums, chemical peels, bleaching, or laser treatments to treat brown spots. Discuss light therapy with your doctor. Consider more aggressive ways of treating scars.

Answer: If over-the-counter solutions just aren’t working and you can afford it, save yourself years of frustration by scheduling an appointment with a professional. Your dermatologist will likely prescribe some combination of the following:  Birth control pills for women, which works to control acne by regulating hormones. Your dermatologist might prescribe this herself, or she might recommend that you seek a prescription from your gynecologist. Antibiotics like doxycycline, minocycline, and tetracycline Topical treatments like sulfur, azelaic acid, dapsone, and benzoyl peroxide Accutane (Isotretinoin), a Vitamin-A derivative that is taken orally. Accutane is only prescribed in the most severe cases, as it requires very strict commitment and comes with many side effects and potential health risks. Your doctor will probably prescribe a topical corticosteroid (to control itching and irritation) first, but if that doesn’t work, there are several other options you can try. Be persistent — it can take time to find the right strategy. Less common treatments include the following:  Reparative creams Oral antibiotics More aggressive corticosteroid treatments Exposure to natural or artificial sunlight Although eczema and psoriasis are different conditions, dermatologists often treat them in similar ways. Psoriasis treatments aim to slow cell growth and remove scales, generally falling into three main categories.  Topical treatments like corticosteroids, synthetic vitamin D, and retinoids. Light therapy involving either daily exposure to small amounts of sunlight or targeted treatment of affected areas. Drugs that reduce inflammation (like methotrexate) or control the immune system (like cyclosporine). While you’re at the doctor’s office, be sure to rule out any potentially serious health problems — what looks like an annoying dark spot to you might look like a potentially cancerous mole to your dermatologist. Another possible treatment for acne is light therapy. Exposure to blue light can kill the bacteria that causes red, swollen (inflammatory) acne, and exposure to pulsed light and heat may also help shrink oil glands.  Your doctor may need to apply photosensitizers to your skin before treatment to make it more sensitive to light. Possible side effects include redness, crusting and peeling, changes in skin tone, and pain. Remember that your dermatologist has expertise in many different areas. He will know what treatments are right for you and, if necessary, can refer you to a plastic surgeon.  Try a chemical peel for acne scars. These treatments work by getting rid of old skin cells, allowing new ones to take their places. Their strength varies, from light peels that you can get on your lunch break to deep peels that must be done under anesthesia and require several weeks of recovery. In all cases, make sure you consult with your doctor beforehand and follow their instructions to avoid serious side effects afterwards. Explore laser treatments. For some, over-the-counter treatments won’t be enough. You will need to talk to a dermatologist about this. He will know whether you are a good candidate for laser treatment and, if so, what kind of laser to use. Even so, the scar will likely never disappear completely.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Pour vinegar into your washer. Squeeze pure lemon juice into your laundry. Make a baking soda paste. Coat stains in peroxide. Use bleach as a last resort.

Answer: Vinegar’s acidic nature helps disinfect and remove stains, and can also remove unpleasant smells, such as mold mildew, and body odor. If your whites have been overtaken by poor smells, vinegar is the best option to remove them. All it takes is between 1 tablespoon and ¼ cup poured directly into the wash basin or detergent reservoir. Do not overdo vinegar use; because vinegar is acidic, too much can cause damage to your clothes over time. Lemon juice is an all-natural bleaching agent. You can use lemon essential oil, pre-squeezed lemon juice, or juice directly from a lemon. If you juice your own lemons, be sure to strain the juice through cheesecloth or a thin strainer to prevent getting lemon residue on your clothes.  If you are using lemon juice, you can place the juice of two lemons in a bowl or tub with one gallon of warm water and allow them to soak for 30-60 minutes. If you are using lemon essential oil, simply place 2-3 drops directly into the wash bin. To remove stains, you can make a paste with baking soda and warm water, then apply this mixture directly to the stain using a toothbrush or clothes brush. Allow the stain to soak in the mixture for 10-15 minutes before running it under warm water. This treatment is gentle enough that it can be done multiple times to get rid of a stubborn stain. However, be sure to thoroughly rinse the clothing item between each soak, as leaving baking soda in place can cause clothes to become brittle. Peroxide is an excellent, safe way to get tough stains out of clothes. Peroxide is particularly useful for removing blood and other dark, hard-to-lift stains. Once you have pretreated a stain, place the stained or discolored item in a tub filled with hot water and peroxide. Peroxide disinfects and cleans, and provides a safer alternative to bleach. Peroxide is used as an alternative to bleach for a reason: it acts as a bleaching agent, not merely a brightening or cleaning agent. Do not use peroxide on clothes you not wish to whiten. Although bleach is useful in disinfecting and whitening clothing items, there is some doubt as to how safe it is for use. Being a harsh chemical, bleach can begin to break down the fibers in a given fabric, weakening it and causing tears. If you do decide to use bleach on your whites, be sure to store it away from the reach of children and pets, and away from fire hazards such as the stove or dryer.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Draw a line art of the face. First, draw a happy face. Sad face. Angry face. Tired/depressed face. Bewildered face. Color your drawing with the expression you like.

Answer: Leave the facial features blank. This expression can be achieved with the mouth drawn using a curved upward line. This expression can be drawn with the mouth curved downwards. Draw the eyebrows slightly slanted downwards. Draw this face with the mouth opened using a circle as if shouting. This expression can also be drawn with the mouth curved downwards. The eyebrows should be angled upwards to make the face look fierce. Draw the mouth slightly curved down, the eyebrows can be a little horizontal and the eyes half-opened. You can add a few short strokes below the eyes suggesting dark eye bags from stress. Draw the mouth slightly dropped open and the eyes fully opened with the eyebrows raised.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare your solution. Lay your shells on wax paper. Paint glue on your sand dollar.

Answer:
Use equal parts water and equal parts school glue to create a watered down mixture. Line a small bowl with plastic wrap or wax paper to protect the surface of the bowl and mix your solution with a disposable utensil. Mix as much solution as you think you'll need depending on the size and amount of sand dollar shells you have. Like a baking sheet or large plate with wax paper and lay your dry shells on it. Place your shells with the rounded side facing up. Make sure to space your shells an inch or so apart. Using wax paper allows for an easy clean up. Use a soft paintbrush to paint the rounded top side of your shells first. Try to avoid touching the shell with your fingers, this can leave smudges in the glue. Allow the glue to completely dry before flipping the shells over and painting the underside.  Painting your shells with this glue mixture will harden the shells, which will help them last longer. Maintain a clean work area to ensure dirt and debris don’t get stuck to the sand dollars. This method will create a dull natural finish for your sand dollars.
