emilysdabomb Hi! I do go to second-hand shops or the "ukay-ukay" as we do call it here in the Philippines. It is very hard to find good quality items though. You really have to be patient in scouring the racks of clothes, shoes and bags to get good buys. I suggest you go...

Do you use shampoo everytime you take a bath?

mycharm88 @mycharm88 (2288) • Philippines 17 Jul 07

Do you believe that shampooing hair everyday weakens the hair? This is what my mother always tells me, i guess she's right because now i have dry brittled hair and with split ends... Do you agree on this?

emilysdabomb Hi! My mother tells me the same thing. But as much as I want to shampoo my hair less often, I have to do it everyday because my hair accumulates dust and dirt from traveling to and from work. I just follow up with my favorite conditioner after I shampoo so...

Married2aMarine @Married2aMarine (1273) • United States 14 Apr 07

My hubby is sick. I mean REALLY sick. He's got the flu big time and is on all kinds of meds from the doc. Thing is, he still wants to be affectionate and kiss and make out, etc. I'm not really keen on doing it as I don't want to...

emilysdabomb If I were you, I would still kiss my husband even if he's got the flu. Come on, just give in. Just remember to take Vitamin C to strengthen your immune system. Just do it! ;-)

How do you keep your house smelling nice?

coffeeshot @coffeeshot (3783) • Australia 10 Mar 07

My house is clean, but you know how you enter some people's houses and they just have a nice smell about them? i don't really want to buy air fresheners, as they're too expensive.. some are $10 or more and then you have to keep...

emilysdabomb Hi, Coffeshot! The solution to your problem is in your username. Coffee is known to absorb odor. I learned that when I was still a barista at Starbucks. ;-) Just put dried coffee grounds in a nylon stocking and hang it in a closet or anywhere in your house....

emilysdabomb I used to feel the same way. From grade school up until high school, I really had low self confidence. No one would give me a second glance then. I was dark, skinny and had short, frizzy hair. It was only during college that I started to "bloom". lol. I guess...

Do you look your age?

leanette @leanette (3002) • India 14 Apr 07

DO you look older or younger than your age? If told you look older/younger, did you feel bad or bothered? Women feel happy if they are told they look younger, I think its the opposite with men. Women, would you rather look younger...

emilysdabomb Hi, Leanette! Don't feel so bad if people think you're older than you actually are. Looking older than your age also has its disadvantages. I'm like your sister - I'm 27 but I look younger than my age. A lot of people think I'm only 18. I'm the eldest among 4...

emilysdabomb The answer is NO. Even if the driver is the most angelic, innocent-looking person, I will never hop in his/her car. First of all, why would that person ask me to get in the car? Although he/she will give me a reasonable excuse I still wouldn't go with that...

What makes a woman beautiful

jep_toyo @jep_toyo (1606) • Philippines 30 Jan 07

Everyone of us has his own standards when it comes to deciding what's beautiful and what's not. What are the qualities or characters that makes a woman beautiful to you?

emilysdabomb I think the thing that makes a woman beautiful is her confidence in herself. A woman doesn't have to look supermodel-gorgeous to achieve confidence. Confidence is achieved by accepting yourself for who you really are. A woman should learn to live with her...

Is it wierd for men to wear makeup?

Giggles88 @Giggles88 (542) • United States 24 Mar 07

I've seen a lot of men wearing makeup lately. They seem to think it's called being Emo or Goth. If your a girl do you find it attractive? Personally I don't. For men do you look badly on men who do wear makeup? What do you think...

emilysdabomb I think men shouldn't mess around with any kind of make-up. I see some guys wearing foundation or lip gloss. Even if it's just light foundation, an eye liner or lip gloss, make-up on a guy just looks so fake and so weird. If a guy has a not-so-good complexion,...

Do you wear makeup?

Giggles88 @Giggles88 (542) • United States 24 Mar 07

I don't wear makeup. I think it makes me look fake. I believe in a natural look. I think it's better not to wear makeup. Do you wear makeup? If yes then how much? Do you think it's better to look natural?

emilysdabomb I do wear make-up whenever I go out of the house. Anyways it's very light and natural-looking - just loose powder foundation over my moisturizer with sunscreen, light blush and lip color. That's it. I just curl my lashes and don't bother putting on mascara or...
