We all know the struggle of not so clear skin. It sometimes can feel impossible to get rid of all the bad breakouts, and nothing is more frustrating than trying to tame the zits and not getting any result. However, there are a lot of simple ways to keep skin clear!

1. Make sure to wash you face

This may sound like a broken record and obvious, but it is super important to make sure you wash your face twice a day! This will ensure that you start and end the day with a fresh clean face and will keep you and your pores happy!

2. Drink lots of water

Staying hydrated is vital for every aspect of your body. Drinking lots of water keeps your skin moisturized and clears skin cells of waste, so get your H2O on!

3. Avoid greasy foods

As great as these foods taste, they are advocates for bad breakouts! Oily food equals more oily skin which leads to easier access for zits, so try to limit how many times you consume these!

4. Avoid touching your face throughout the day

One major contributor to acne is constantly touching your face.Your hands are full of germs and oils from throughout the day that can clog your pores and cause breakouts. It can be tough to avoid doing considering that most of the time we do this subconsciously so try to be aware of it. This is a big step on the pathway to clear skin!

If you have problems with stubborn acne, try these tips. Not only is it great for clear skin but for your whole body as well!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
