Guide To Guys ! XD

Dear Girls , Though You're Super Confusing To Us Guys - We're Probably Just As Weird To You. All the cute, sweet, (or scary) stuff you need to know before you date a guys who is 15, 17, 19 & everywhere in between !

15 ! 1) He's Romantic ! Since he probably hasn't been jaded by many bad relationships before you guys, he'll be especially sweet, genuine, and ungaurded.
2) He's Super Stoaked ! He still can't believe his lucky enough to have a girl that actually agreed to go out with him. So enjoy the adoration !
3) He's New At This ! Sure, he's a little inexperienced. But it's nice that there i sno pressure for you to be that perfect girlfriend, since he's still figuring stuff out.
*4) He's A Bit Clueless ! He always doesn't know that right thing to say or do in tricky situations, so he can sometimes come off as hurtful.

17 ! 1)  He's Sensitive ! He may not always show it, but at this age, he cares about his relationships and feelings just as much as you do. Rest assured : he sees you as more than just a makeout buddy. Although lucky for you he has also become a....
2) Better Kisser ! Thanks to girlfriends in the past, and plenty of spin the bottle games - he's learned a thing or two.
3) He's More Open With You ! He's slowly getting that it's okay to reveal his feelings and ask you for your support. Encourage him by doing the same.
*4) He's Self-Absorbed ! Spending Time as a couple may take a backseat to his job, sports, guy friends, and X-box marathons.

19 ! 1) He's Hot. Studiest show at this age, guys have their physical peak, which means more he's lost the baby fat, has more chisled facial feautres, more muscles, and is taller !
2) Brand New (To You) ! Unlike with recycled high school guys, in college, you won't already know his life story - and he hasn't already dated three of your friends !
3) Interesting ! He's got dreams, ambition & drive - which is totally attractive, everyone at school is trying out new classes, so you know he's not one-dimensional.
*4) Overconfident. He's probably already had sex with other girls, his new frat brothers, and independence, he may hook up with you, then deiced to 'keep his options open'.

I Hope This Helps You Guys With The "Girls Guide To Guys At All Ages !" Haha.

Self Esteem !

Hey Guys ! It's Dan , I Hope All Of You're Pictures Came Out Great & You're All Ready To Start School !
Now I've Recieved Alot Of Questions Related To Confidence & Self Esteem , So I Decided I'm Going To Give Some Advice !

First Off I Want To Start By Saying That EVERYONE Will Experience Some Sort Of Hate , Or Negative Comments Made Towards Them At Some Point In Their Life , So Don't Feel Alone - So With That Of Course , The People Doing The 'Hating' Will Also Experience It. I've Personally Been Picked On Or Teased For Everything - How I Look , I How I Act, Where I Live, What I Enjoy Doing , Etc .People Are Always Going To Have Something Negative To Say , For Whatever Reason. Now What You Have To Do , Is Consider The Source. Most Hate Like Comments, Have Alot To Do With Jealousy, & Self Hate. People Wbo Are Fully Confident With Themselfs Don't Feel The Need To Make Thee Not So Positive Comments About People , & Do It To Get A Negative Reaction To Pull Down One To There Level Of Feeling Not Confident. I've Been On The Recieving End , & Have Also DONE These Types Of Things, So I Know How They Work .& I Would Say The Best Way To Deal With Teasing & Rumors , & Bad Comments Is Just To Not Show Any Reaction . Because, That's What The Person Or People Want & By Actually Showing A Reaction You're Giving Them Power Therefore Fullfilling What There Goal Was, & You Don't Want To Do That .& Normally,  The People Who Do These Kinds Of Things Will Get More Than A Spoon Full Enough Of There Own Medicine Back , So Let Karma Take Care Of Them . (: & If People Are Talking Rudely About Who You Are Or Something You Love Doing - Just Remember , /You're Who You Are For A Reason , & If You Love Doing What You're Doing Than No One Can Take That Away From You . & You Also Have To Remember To Love Yourself , Because If You Don't Than No One Else Can .
Stay Strong Guys ! People Tend To Admire Strong , Confident , Idependent People .

Update & SCHOOL PICTURES ! (:

Hey Guys ! It's Dan (: So , To Fill You In On How To Detox When , I Did It For 5 Days & I Lost 6 Pounds With Excersise !! Now It Was Completely Hard To Just Drink That- Horrible Actually , So I Also Ate A Few Healthy Snacks In Between. The Whole Process Was Realitively Easy After That. Now I Have To Focus & Switching Up How I Eat To A More Healthy Style & Excersise More Moderately !

SCHOOL PICTURES !

I've Recieved So Many Messages Asking Me A Whole Bunch Of School Photo Related Questions ! So I'm Going To Answer A Few Here !

What Kind Of Makeup Should I Wear ?
I Say For School Pictures Less Is More ! You Want To Look Really 'Naturally' Beautiful, & Hide Imperfections & Focus On What You Want To Stand Out , Which Is Usually The Eyes. With That, I Say Use A High Coverage Foundation All Over Your Face,  Then A Matte Powder Over That To Set Over It. (A Powder Is Really Important Because In Flash Photography - You Don't Want To Look Oily !) After That, Apply A Little Bit Of Blush Or Bronzer So Wear The Sun Would Naturally Hit You For A Bit Of A Glow , Next I Would Apply A Shimmery Bronze Or Goldish Eyeshadow - It Works On Everyone & Adds A Bit Of Glam To This Natural Look , I Would Then Take A White Or Off White Eyeshadow And Apply It Just To The Inner Corner Of Your Eyes To Make You Look Wide Awake ! After That,  Apply A Thin Layer Of Black Or Dark Brown Liner On The Top And Bottom Of You Eyes To Make Them Stand Out , Then Apply A Few Coats Of Your Favorite Mascara To ONLY The Top Lashes , It Just Looks Better . *Optional* Apply Natural Looking False Lashes To Thicken & Add Dramatic Length.

What Should I Do With My Hair ?
Always Wear It Down ! Either Super Sleek & Straight , Or Nice Loose Curls , Nothing Too 'Done Up' , Use Some Shine Serums Or Shine Sprays To Add A Sheen & Glossyness To Your Hair , Spray A Light Amount Of Hairspray To Get Rid Of Fly Aways . It's Pretty Simple , Don't Make The Mistake Of Doing Too Much - It's School Pictures - NOT PROM <3

I Hope This Helped You Guys & Answered Your Questions ! If You Have Anymore , Please Message Me On Facebook !

Starting A Detox !

Hey Everyone ! With School Approaching In Only 3 Weeks & 10 Days Until Regristration - I Figured Now's The PERFECT Time To Get Back Into Shape. I've Been Slacking All Summer On Excersise & Eating Extremely Unhealthy , Which Is Never Good . So I've Decided To Do A Detox ! A Detox Is A Cleanser For Your Body And Remoxes Toxins And Purifies Your System. It's Basically Where You Fast & Only Eat / Drink Selective Things In Spefic Amounts For A Certian Range Of Time To L oose Weight, Eat Up Fats, & Improve Your Health. I'm Starting One Of The Most Known Detox's Called The Master Cleanse Or The Lemonade Diet . This Diet Consist Of Only Drinking A Mixture Of Purfied Water, Lemon Juice, Cayane Pepper, & Grade B Orangic Maple Syrup. Sounds Nasty Huh ? We It Doesn't Taste TOO Bad. I Bought All The Ingredients At Trader Joes & Will Be Starting It & Doing It For 10 Days - Just In Time For School Pictures ! Woot Woot . Many Celebritie Such As Beyonce Knowles & Jesse McCartney Have Turned To The Master Cleanse To Get Healthier & Loose Alot Of Weight In A Short Amount Of Time. This Cleanse Can Be Done Once A Month, For 14 days Tops, Or Else It Can Get Unhealthy. And Of Course You Can Also Do It Just Went You Want To Shed A Couple Extra Pounds. This Cleanse Can Also Produce Better Skin & Hair , Which Is Def A Plus ! My Friend Melissa Will Be Doing The Lemonade Diet With Me, & We Offically Will Be Starting Tomorrow ! I  Currently Weigh 140 Pounds , Goal Weight = 130 , With This, & Moderate Excersise I Hope To Reach My Goal Of Shedding Just A Few Extra Pounds, Loosing Body Fat, & Getting Toner  & Lean. (:

WISH US LUCK ! (:

1st Post & Clear Skin !

Hey Guys It's Me , Diydan & Welcome To My Offical Blog ! I Wanted To Use This To Keep You Guys Posted
On All Of The Stuff Going On In My Life But To Also Share My Advice , Tips , & Tricks ! I Get Asked So Often About Topics, That I Figured This Would Be A Great Way To Reach Out To All Of You Guys ! 

With That A Question I Get Alot , Is HOW TO GET CLEAR SKIN !  Clear Skin Is Extremely Important Because Your Face Is One Of The First Things People Notice About You. Clear Skin Also Says Alot About How Well You Take Care Of Yourself. But Most Of All, Clear Skin Is Beautiful Skin & Gives Us Confidence !My Skin Hasn't Always Been So Clear , But Recently I've Discovered So Much & Here's How You Can Too, Get A Flawless Complexion !
1) Drink Lots Of Water ! This Is An Obvious - But A Must ! Aim For At Least 8 0z Glasses A Day - Of 4 Watter Bottles Full !
2) Get A Skin-Care Routine Down. Usually A Skin Care Routine Consist Of A Cleanser (Face Wash) , A Toner, & A Moisturizior.  A Toner Is Optional , But A Cleanser & Moisturizior's Are a Must ! You Want To Find Produts That Are Suitable For Your Skin Type, Either Oily , Dry, Or a Combination Of Both. If You Have Oily Skin, Use A Gel or Foam Cleanser , & A Light Moisturizor , If You Have Dry Skin Try To Find A Cream Cleanser, & A More Thick Moisturizor, For Combination Skin , Try A Cream Cleanser , & A Light Moisturizor. You Want To Cleanse & Moisturize At Least Two Times A Day , Once In The Morning & At Night . The Brand I Recommend Using Is Neutrogena - They Carry A GREAT Range Of Products ! (:
3) Exfoliate Your Skin At Least Once A Week - An Exfoliator Will Remove A Layer A Dead Skin , Realviling Soften , Healthier Skin . A Great Exfoliator Is St. Ives Aprocot Scrub (:
4) Drink Green Tea ! It's Good For Your Skin . (:
5) Got Dark Circles ? Use An Eye Cream With The Ingredient, Retinol !
6) SLEEP ! Yes, Beauty Sleep Is A Real Thing - At Least 8 hours ! Your Skin Needs Rest Too !
7) Change Your Pillow Cases Often , They Contain Dust & Bacteria !
8)  Avoid Touching Your Face, Think Of All The Germs On Your Hands ! - Eky . Use Some Sanitizer !
9) Excersise ! Yes - Working Out Can Relieve Stress That Can Cause Acne . Just Make Sure You Wash Your Face Afterwards !
10) Food Like Lemons, Tomatoes, Strawberries, Blue Berries Are Good For Your Skin ! Food High In Fact - Not So Much.
11) Dairy Products Aren't The Best For Your Skin.
12) Use A Face Mask Once A Week To Tighten , Firm , & Help Clear Skin. I Like Got2B Face Mask.
13) Extractions ! Extracting Is Basically Popping A Pimple Or Blemish. This CAN Be Done. So Long As It Is Done Correctly Using Washed Hands & By Making Sure When You Pop It, That It Bleeds Before You Stop. This Insures That All Of The Blemish Is Out Of Your Skin.
14) When Using Face Makeup - Make Sure You Use Makeup That Is Oil Free So It Won't Clog Your Pores ! Mineral & Natural Makeup Are The Best Options !
15) Go See A Dermatologist ! This Is Extremely Important With Cases Of Severe Or Even Just Mild Acne, Like Me. I Had To Try A TON of Dermatologist Recommendations & Perscriptions Before I Found Something That Works For Me ! I'm On A Drug Called Accutane , -It's A Very Serious & Strong Drug For The Skin , & Your Dermatologist / Doctor Can Tell You If Your Right For It Or Not.
Lastly , Just BELIEVE ! I Know It Sounds Corny , But Faith & Not Stressing Out So Much Can Go A Long Way . I Hope These Steps Help You Achieve Your Skin Goals !

Peace, Love, & Big Dreams,
-Dan (:
