This is better off in a make-up forum but whatever! I wanna know what you folks use for daily face cleaning (other than water)! It may seem like girl talk but I bet some of you guys use skin care products! I adore St. Ives Apricot Scrub but I'm looking for something that could do a better job at keeping damn acne away. I'm typically dry around the T-zone area so I'd need something that won't dehydrate the skin. |

I get a shower. So...uh...whatever soap we got, and whatever shampoo I gets on my face; which is probably Head and Shoulders, since it's dollar store stuff.

Johnson's face wash for sensitive skin! I've got the most annoying tendencies to get odd little rashes from funny, extravagant perfume-ey stuffs soooo... I pretty much go for all Johnson's baby stuffs.

Johnson's face wash? That doesn't sound very pakistani.

Never doubt the power of Americastani corporations to infiltrate other nations.

You can use a gachi mudmask if you want! Very ethnic! Very pakistani!  Er... I think there's a Johnsons and Johnson's Pakistan as well. Their stuffs quality changes with the passing of seasons and their moods though! :'D |

My girlfriend uses that proactive stuff from the TV and it works good. I just wash with a face cloth before bed everyday, and it seems to work. I get bad acne sometimes, but that's always after a week of Mcdonalds and chips.

Usually I just use the good old soap. And water to wash up. But sometimes, I use this special soap that contains lots of Sulfur, which really, really cleanses the skin, especially the facil skin. It removes all the "oil" from the skin. It's sold in a "pharmaceutics store". Now that I have got a job, I guess I'll be better off using it daily. Other than that, I don't use nothing else. I don't care much about it. |

Battery acid works, just as well as combining various household cleaners.  |

Zursh! XD Actually, people compare me to that guy in the coat who claims he's this awesome one-man game dev team, from Grandma's Boy. I find that insulting, but yeah. I feel uncomfortable whenever nerds appear on TV or in movies. Road Trip has that wimpy nerd, Criminal Minds has the long-haired wimpy nerd, so on and so forth. You decide... XD  Edit: It's the adams apple, and my unfortunate inability to straighten out my neck. If I *could* straighten out my neck, chances are, my adams apple would be more apparent. Plus, I'm sure I'd be hearing cries of "Eee-Tee..." from the general directions of every single disgusting son of a bitch out there! (I mean, the kind men, women, and children of this world...) XD Edit 2: The fact that I show my face here, clearly demonstrates the naive level of trust in this community. Bravo. You saw me. (Two years ago.) >_>" Now get away from me. XD |

You really remember an old friend I have! xDD You really look alike! Also don't worry, as this is tEh community.  Now, perhaps I should get a pic of myself and post here too. XD It's about time! I personally wound't recommend that, but if it works... then it works! xD |

I adore St. Ives Apricot Scrub but I'm looking for something that could do a better job at keeping damn acne away. I'm typically dry around the T-zone area so I'd need something that won't dehydrate the skin. Wow, this is me, pretty much. XD Though the dryness in my face tends to be elsewhere. Combination skin SUCKS. St. Ives is nice, but I'd say only use it every other day or so. You don't wanna scrub off your skin ALL the time. Having had acne since the unfortunately early age of 10-11 (UGH!) I can safely say I've tried a pretty vast selection of potential regimens out over the years. Proactiv was nice for awhile, but the problem is that it's very, very harsh on your skin, and kinda pricy. It overdries, which means more oil gets made, which means pores get more clogged, which means more acne... well, it's a vicious cycle. I find it helps to change up the product periodically. I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub every other day (once, in the morning) and in evenings/other days, I use a gentle moisturizing facial cleanser (current brand: Dove). Just make sure it's water-based, NOT oil-based. Also, I use a moisturizing lotion to follow it up, before the skin's dried off entirely. Again, nothing oil-based or you just invited some more acne. Basically, something to get rid of the super-dry, tight-skinned feeling you usually get after washing, you know? XD There we go, vanity session complete. Or something. |

I do have a strange tendancy of appearing familiar to those who have never met me. It's resulted in alot of strange occurances.

Odd... you look almost exactly how I kind of imagined what you might look like, Unsavory Maggot/Zursh..? Perhaps it is the 'familiar face' look!

It's creepy how that works. Everyone knows what I look like, although nobody ever sees me. XD

Perhaps ones pictures get subliminally transferred over into others minds by the way we all write? X'D I mean, I found it pretty funny freaky how Gamemusicfreak drew my hair so almost accurately close to my old hairstyle!

I actually never really thought about how any of you guys look like. :O I mean, I take it yakra would look like someone from her country. :P And Inochi looks right for someone from his culture too. XD And all you Chinese folks on this board, I bet you look Chinese too! That's about how far my guesses would go. :P |

Well, it was less than two years ago that picture was taken of me. I'm more disguised, more covered up these days.
I think I'm getting neckbeard too. XD I try to limit it to just my facial hair, but geez.

Zursh is just an everyman kinda guy, perhaps? XD
I don't really make guesses on the look of fellow internet denizens either. Y'know, beyond the very likely generalities.
