Do you have good skin?

Thank you Louis for the update on the complexion of your ass. That was probably what everyone here was waiting to hear. I know I've been awaiting this information for quite some time now.

maybe your butt just needs more sun

based on nothing but hunches and instinct (like all good skin conjecture) i think sunshine = good for complexion, bad for actual skin (like, aging etc).

the sun shone off of his behind
no it's not like any other post
this one is different because it's LJ

^ :-)

exfoliation is important

lolol well, a deep tan does help to obscure any residual spot-marks (which is what can be found on the aforementioned areas; it isn't a complexion issue, simply a smattering of inconsistency), hence the sun thing is overall a good plan.

history of malignant melanoma in the family = i may have to rethink this at some point

Friend of the family's kid actually for real went blind when he was an early team from Accutane, and then later killed himself, although the suicide might be unrelated. It is a really sad story, though.

My skin is okay, not great, but not bad enough (or I don't care enough) to put a lot of effort into FIGHTING WRINKLES AND AGING AND ZITS AND GRAVITY AND AND AND AND OMG YOU'RE HIDEOUS. I wash my face twice a day with regular soap (OMG!) and put sunscreen on it in the morning. The only thing I'm really uptight about is washing off make up when I wear it, but that is more because makeup feels like clothes for my face and not washing it off would be like, I don't know, sleeping with my shoes on.

backne is the worst thing forever

when he was in his early teens.

WTF, I think I'm drunk.

back zits are the most physically painful zits

I avoid contact with sunlight. At this rate in a few years I'll look half my age...

SPF 70 on my face every day.

I do this with something awesome called Buffy the Backside Slayer from Lush. You know, just in case you were wondering.

LJ maybe I am alone on this one, but dude: unless your career plans are very different from what I imagine, if I were you I would not worry too much about having "inconsistent" pigment or a freckly-looking ass. back, maybe, if it's important to you to look good without a shirt on, but I'd recommend keeping the ass low-priority, that's just me

it's a tough economy, people all over are ending up in careers they'd never imagined

!!!

the ass was an afterthought

I mean men are sort of lucky in that generally when people look at our bare asses they are not super-invested in it being an aesthetically revelatory experience

xpost - okay, excellent

my most painful ones are more due to ingrown hairs, mostly on thighs and neck

maybe louis should depilate a butt

bicurious lj you know what else they say is good for your skin.

Does choice of fabric affect the health of the skin beneath?

CB you ain't tryina seduce me right

crackle that is a lie

from what I hear

Sex generally causes the number of spots on my legs to rise slightly, just sayin'

...and this thread should be on ILTMI

i mean semen is essentially like 90% urine and i don't think uric acid is good for skin tbh

this thread is going to turn me against the whole human body, isn't it

i mean semen is essentially like 90% urine

this is false isn't it?!!!!!!! ew

I have good skin, but I don't really give much thought to it. Had a short period with acne in the past, don't remember it being a huge deal. Cigarettes do terrible things to people's skin. It's pretty sad when you can just look at a person's face and tell.

yeah elmo i think you're doing it wrong

I think urea is actually a pretty common ingredient in skin care products Elmo.

yeah urine helps heal wounds actually. i heard.

where do they get the urea for skin care products though?

pissed on my leg once after a jellyfish sting iirc

yeah if you get stung by a jellyfish, you pee on the jellyfish it makes the sting go away

xx-post probably animals?

it makes the jellyfish mad though X( xp

watched a friend piss on a stingray once, from a canoe, under a full moon, in a fit of pique

revenge piss

the stingray scared him

I heard urine was quite good for skin too :-/

Ultimately, where I stand, forgetting daily concerns of washing, getting sun, and wearing good fabrics, is that if your complexion is good save for a few hormonal quiddities, there's no need to really change much of your personal hygiene routine.

Speaking of hormones, aren't the hormones released in sex supposed to be the beneficial element? The contact itself might cause a few more spots but it's supposed to be good for the complexion (which, as established, is the main thing), isn't it?

(xpost) anything can happen in the next half hour...

what the hell journals are you guys reading

duh "nothing but hunches and instinct (like all good skin conjecture)"

POPPAGE DIGEST

You can also drink urine if it's fresh. But I do labor to avoid that necessity.

can and should are two different things

You're taking the piss...

Semen is nothing like urine, except that they're both mostly water.
