Comments on: Why Yes, It IS Embarrassing, Thank You http://gothic-peach.net/blogging-2/embarrassing/ My So-Called Life Fri, 20 Aug 2010 11:12:25 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Joana http://gothic-peach.net/blogging-2/embarrassing/comment-page-1/#comment-5017 Joana Fri, 22 Jan 2010 08:23:21 +0000 http://gothic-peach.net/?p=1368#comment-5017 To be honest, I could never go up to someone (even a friend) and just start lecturing or recommending stuff to them for their obvious appearance-related problems.

It's so frustrating, I've tried Veet and Nair but they irritate m skin and actually make my acne flair up" Me: "Hmm, well, I used to use Nads because of my skin sensitivity and I liked it. Worked fast, lasted long, and didn't give my sensitive skin a rash like others" Obviously then the comments are invited.
