No...I am very bad at this. I don't think any work. If you can suggest some please do!

In my teens...hell yeah. LOTS. These days I get the odd demon of a blemish that rears its ugly head for important occasions..i.e dates, job interviews...yadda yadda.

Nope. Is this a questionnaire from them? :P

Dita Von Teese. I also like Sienn Miller’s eyeliner looks and Kiera Knightley’s smokey eyes.

Hmmm, if I had a wicked cram that could even out my skintone then yes.
