Then wipe off with a cloth and then wash your skin.
It lasts about 2-3 weeks. I guess it fades.
I'm going to a wedding on the 26th, so I'll probably dye them 5-6 days before just in case they come out too dark.
Oh wow, I didn't even know you could do it yourself! That's even scarier. What brand do you use?

Since I'm broke and in school I do everything myself at home

-tweezing once a week
-masks twice a week
-exfoliating once a week
-pedicure once a month
-I dye my hair every month. I'm annoyed I have to dye it, but I have tons of gray hair even though I'm in my 20s....
-deep condition once a week
-hair mask every 1-2 months
-at home facials every month

I've never gotten a massage and never will since I can't stand to be touched.

I like to make my own face and hair products. I don't do anything with my nails besides keeping them short and putting on hand lotion. Putting on nail polish is a waste when you're a pianist, little chips of polish flying everywhere as soon as I start to practice

Hey Dottington, good to see you coming up for air!

I like doing my own nails--the idea of someone using sharp objects on me that have been used on countless other people isn't the least bit appealing. My experiences with salon facials have been less than satisfactory. I much prefer to do my own. Love my hair guy, though.

LoL! I take my own sharp objects to the salon. Most of my friends also do this. What i find weird is the idea of waxing anything at the salon!
