Whether we’re past puberty or still in our teens, acne does become a big hassle. It swallows up our buoyancy, makes us feel unsightly and hideous, and at its worse, makes us reluctant to face the world and continually feel uneasy about others&#039; opinions and what they think or say about us.</p>
<p>What actually nags us though is that we may be doing whatever is needed for skin care and living a healthy life, yet zits disturb us anyway. However, some studies illustrate that there is one thing that we may have disregarded is zits repair with apt nourishment.</p>
<p>Zits come about when androgen amplify and overproduce keratin and sebum, ensuing blocked pores and skin diseases. A scarcity in Vitamin A also gives birth to too much keratin at the same time as a diet affluent in fried foods and saturated fat can go ahead to blocked pores. Nutritionists suggest vitamin A, zinc and vitamin C to battle virus, vitamin E to repair the wounds and avert scarring and vitamin B3 (niacin) to wash out unnecessary toxins from the skin.</p>

<li>Reduce the consumption of processed food and take additional natural food, for example vegetables and fruits.</li>
<li>A diet that is full on fiber can maintain the clean color and can decrease toxicity.</li>
<li>Surplus iodine (fish and table salt) can make zits shoddier. The equivalent can be said for eating excessive dairy products such as eggs, cheese, milk and the like.</li>
</ol>

<p>We all have our reasons for getting fit, and we try to tell ourselves and others that we&#039;re doing it for the health benefits, which we are &#8212; partly. But let&#039;s face it &#8212; part of you can&#039;t help but appreciate the fact that getting in shape will improve your appearance as well.</p>
<p>How vain of you! Not really. Looking your best isn&#039;t just about your ego. It tells the world that you care about the way you present yourself, and you are viewed as a more influential and together person as a result.</p>
<p>So, what if you could eat something that upped your <a href="http://www.hotornot.com" title="Are You Hot or Not?" target="_blank">Hot or Not</a> score?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Starting today, there will be various <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/contests/" title="Click Here to View the Current Contests and Prizes!">contests</a> with some great prizes to reward regular readers and members of FitBuff.com.</p>
<p>Each prize will have something to do with one of our 10 areas of Total Mind and Body Fitness: Brain Power, Dating, Exercise, Family, Grooming, Money, Nutrition, Sex, Stress, and Work.</p>
<p>If you have a suggestion for a contest or would like to see a certain prize available in a future contest, submit your idea to us <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/contact-info/" title="Send Us Your Contest or Prize Idea!">here</a>.</p>
<h2>Rules</h2>
<p>Today&#039;s pioneer contest is very easy, fast, and free to enter. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post with one of two things:</p>
<ol>
<li>Ask any question that relates to <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/dating/" title="View all posts in Dating category">Dating</a> and/or <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/sex/" title="View all posts in Sex category">Sex</a>. Make sure your question hasn&#039;t already been asked in another comment at the time of your post. You can ask up to 3 questions for a total of 3 entries.</p>
<p>These questions will be used in future posts complete with detailed answers and explanations. Good deal, right? Enter the contest to win a prize AND get your burning question answered.</li>
<li>Leave a comment with a funny and/or educational story about one of your experiences with <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/dating/" title="View all posts in Dating category">Dating</a> and/or <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/sex/" title="View all posts in Sex category">Sex</a>.
<p>You can submit up to 2 stories for a total of 2 more entries.</li>
</ol>
<p>And yes, you can do both, but only one is required. For example you can submit the maximum of 3 questions and 2 stories, and as long as they are all separate comments, you will have 5 chances to win. Or, you can simply submit one question or one story for one chance to win. Are you feeling lucky?</p>
<p>You must use a valid email address when leaving a comment, or we will have no way to contact the winner. Don&#039;t worry, none of the other users can see your email. The only information anyone will see about you at all is your &#034;Name&#034;, and you can make that anything you want.</p>
<h2>Prize</h2>
<p>Now that the rules are out of the way, what exactly are these entries for&#8211;what&#039;s the prize?!</p>
<p>Appropriately enough, since Friday&#039;s are <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/dating/" title="View all posts in Dating category">Dating</a> and <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/category/sex/" title="View all posts in Sex category">Sex</a> Day here at FitBuff.com, you are entering for the chance to win a shiny new copy of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060554738?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=0060554738">The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists by Neil Strauss</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=fitbucom-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=0060554738" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> (a $30 value).</p>
<blockquote><p><i>Are you just another AFC (&#034;average frustrated chump&#034;) trying to meet an HB (&#034;hot babe&#034;)? How would you like to &#034;full-close&#034; with a Penthouse Pet of the Year? The answers, my friend, are in Neil Strauss&#039;s entertaining book The Game. Strauss was a self-described chick repellant&#8211;complete with large, bumpy nose, small, beady eyes, glasses, balding head, and, worst of all, painful shyness around women. He felt like &#034;half a man.&#034; That is, until a book editor asked him to investigate the community of pickup artists. Strauss&#039;s life was transformed. He spent two years bedding some fine chiquitas and studying with some of the North America&#039;s most suave gents&#8211;including the best of them all, the God of the pickup &#034;community,&#034; a man named Mystery.</i></p></blockquote>
<p>This book has over 400 rave reviews from Amazon customers and is ranked in the Top 200 best-selling books on ALL of Amazon.com. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060554738?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=0060554738">Click Here</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=fitbucom-20&#038;l=as2&#038;o=1&#038;a=0060554738" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> to see for yourself what all the hype is about.</p>
<h2>Duration</h2>
<p>The contest starts at the time of this post, and will end on July 31st at midnight eastern time. At that time, a random number generator will be used to pick a &#8212; you guessed it &#8212; random number between 1 and &#034;however many comments there are&#034;. If the number matches your comment number on this post, you are the winner!</p>
<p>We will email the winner when the contest is over to get the mailing address where you would like us to send your prize.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h2>Where Do I Apply It?</h2>
<p>Apply cologne to your skin (not on top of your clothes) anywhere you can feel a pulse: neck, wrists, and chest. The extra heat and throbbing adds a subtle impact to the scent.</p>
<h2>How Much Should I Use?</h2>
<p>Don&#039;t overdo it. One or two small drops or sprays in your palm is enough to spread over the hot spots mentioned above. If you can constantly smell the fragrance on yourself throughout the whole day, then you&#039;re using too much. If you can&#039;t smell it after a few hours, it&#039;s just because your nose has adjusted. Don&#039;t worry, newcomers will still pick up your scent.<br />
<span id="more-105"></span></p>
<h2>Can I Mix Scents?</h2>
<p>You may have a variety of different scented products you use: aftershave, body wash, shampoo, deodorant, cologne, etc. Try to use your scented products separately whenever possible. For example, if you regularly wear cologne, make sure to get unscented body wash and aftershave. On the other hand, if some days you want to go cologne-free, then use a scented aftershave or deodorant spray. This will make sure you always smell your best, without creating a mutant scent cloud made up of 10 different incompatible smells.</p>
<h2>What Kind Should I Get?</h2>
<p>There are literally thousands of different brands and options. The assumption is that you&#039;re wearing cologne to smell good to other people, right? More specifically, &#034;other people&#034; probably refers to las chicas. So, the obvious thing to do is have a female friend or girlfriend help you pick out a cologne that smells good to her. She will love the fact that you asked her opinion and will make sure you get the best product.</p>
<p>If you&#039;re still having trouble deciding, here are the <strong>Top 3 Time-Tested Cologne&#039;s</strong>, as rated by Cosmo women:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p align="center"><img src="http://www.fitbuff.com/images/thursday.gif" title="Thursday is Grooming and Style Day" alt="Thursday is Grooming and Style Day" border="0"></p>
<p>&#034;Man-scaping&#034; is defined as a man shaving any part of his body below the neck. Some men give themselves a little trim to avoid looking like the cavemen from the Geico commercials, some men shave their entire bodies for sports like swimming and wrestling, and some men think man-scaping is the girliest, most un-macho thing you could ever do.</p>
<p>With the arrival of words like metrosexual and many men caring more about how they look, shaving your &#034;netherlands&#034; is becoming more and more common. Consider this: sales of men&#039;s grooming products topped out at about $11 billion in 2001. That seems like a lot, right? So, what are the current numbers? $22 billion! And, over 1 million men had cosmetic procedures last year, with Botox being the most popular choice.</p>
<p>Bottom line, it&#039;s ok to want to look your best. In fact, study after study confirms that well-groomed men <em>and women</em> are perceived as more trust-worthy, more attractive, and more intelligent. Furthermore, if you give in a little to your vain side, chances are that you will keep your body looking good as well. No potbelly or excess fat means not only a better showing at the beach but a healthier, more efficient body.</p>
<p>Ahhh, the beach. This brings us back to &#034;man-scaping&#034;. Now that summer is in full swing, I&#039;m sure men everywhere will be spending more time with their shirts off. So, the question remains, &#034;Is man-scaping ok, and how much is too much?&#034; Well, I&#039;ll turn that one over to the ladies, since they&#039;re the ones we&#039;re <em>really</em> doing the extra grooming for anyway:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Chest</b>: 73% of women say bare (not bear) is sexy when there&#039;s a nice sculpted chest underneath (I&#039;m sure this applies for &#034;lower chest&#034; (aka abs) as well)</li>
<li><b>Back</b>: 85% of women say you should take the lawnmower to your back if you have the Robin Williams gene</li>
<li><b>Legs</b>: 55% of women say a pair of smooth and hairless toned calves are a big turn-on</li>
<li>&#034;<b>Netherlands</b>&#034;: 67% of women say they appreciate a trimmed look down there, but be careful, only 8% preferred you to go all the way (translation: just get rid of enough hair so it doesn&#039;t look like an unkempt rosebush &#8212; added bonus: eliminating some of the hair covering the base of your penis will also make it look up to an inch bigger)</li>
</ul>
<p>So, now that you see the benefits and opinions of the fairer sex, how exactly do you go about removing hair from these other areas? There are many options available:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Laser hair removal</b>: This is the most expensive and long-lasting method. Laser treatments are usually done in sessions and require 2-4 visits at a couple hundred dollars each, at least. The obvious advantage is that you will only have to do it a few times per year. Yes, it does eventually grow back, but it&#039;s said to be finer than before. This is the only method I haven&#039;t personally tried.</li>
<li><b><a href=<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EZYKTS?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000EZYKTS">Epilator</a></b>: Yes, I was intrigued enough to try an epilator. The idea is that a rotating cylinder of tweezers rapidly pulls your hair out at the root, meaning it takes longer to grow back. Well, it&#039;s just as unpleasant as it sounds. I tried it once on my legs, and after 30 minutes of what felt like a thousand bee stings, I decided this wasn&#039;t the method for me. They say you get used to it after a few times, because the hair grows back thinner, and it did actually keep me smooth for about 4 weeks, so you may want to consider trying this, if you&#039;re man enough (or metrosexual enough?).</li>
<li><b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EG8HLE?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000EG8HLE">BodyGroom</a></b>: This is, by far, the easiest, fastest, and most convenient tool I&#039;ve found. I saw an ad for it in Men&#039;s Health and decided to give it a try, since it was only about $30. I was surprised at how versatile and effective it was for the price. It&#039;s cordless, it has different length attachments (very useful for the &#034;netherlands&#034;), and it can even work in the shower.</li>
</ul>
<p>So, experiment and try different methods to find the one that works best for you. Or, if all this &#034;man-scaping&#034; talk is still a little too &#034;Queer Eye for the Straight Guy&#034; for you, that&#039;s fine too. But, the results are clear: over half of women prefer you a little less hairy. I think this hilarious music video from the makers of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EG8HLE?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000EG8HLE">Body Groom</a> says it best:</p>

<p>There&#039;s another funny video like this on the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EG8HLE?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000EG8HLE">Phillips Norelco BG2020 Bodygroom Shaver</a> product page. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EG8HLE?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=fitbucom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B000EG8HLE">Click Here</a> to watch it and learn more about the BodyGroom.</p>
<p><i>What are your thoughts on men and their shavers venturing below the neck? And what do you think is the best method to get rid of that extra body hair?</i></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div align="center"><a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/faq/#topics"><img src='http://www.fitbuff.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/friday-dating-sex.gif' title="Friday is Dating and Sex Day" alt='Friday is Dating and Sex Day' /></a></div>
<p>A recent study has found that circumcision removes the 5 most sensitive areas of the penis. If you&#039;ve already had it done &#8212; don&#039;t worry &#8212; most of your friends and colleagues are probably playing with just a helmet too. What began as a mostly religious ritual has become almost routine at most hospitals throughout the United States.</p>
<p>This finding is good news for those who suffer from <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/simple-technique-to-give-her-a-mind-blowing-orgasm-and-last-longer-too/" title="Simple Technique to Give Her a Mind-Blowing Orgasm and Last Longer Too!">premature ejaculation</a>. Just imagine how much less control you would have if sex felt five times better than it does now. The results suggest that the most sensitive part of a circumcised penis is the scar where the five most sensitive areas used to be. The other benefit of being circumcised is the reduced chances of transmitting HIV. In fact, many African nations are considering making &#034;the snip&#034; mandatory for this very reason.</p>
<p>Obviously, this doesn&#039;t mean you shouldn&#039;t take the proper precautionary measures to protect yourself and others from HIV just because you are circumcised. The finding merely suggests that the extra skin on an uncircumcised penis is more susceptible to harboring and transmitting the virus.</p>
<p>The downside of this finding for those who&#039;ve already undergone the procedure is that they are only feeling a fraction of the pleasure that they normally would have, had their trees not been trimmed. But, if you&#039;ve gone this long without knowing, you can&#039;t miss what you&#039;ve never had, right?</p>
<p>I&#039;m sure most of my fellow circumcised adult males will agree that sex feels fine just the way it is &#8212; no complaints or regrets here!</p>
<p><em>Circumcision is a hot button issue for many people. Some are completely for it, while others think it should be a punishable crime. What&#039;s your feeling on the topic, and has this new study changed your mind at all?</em></p>

<p><strong>Baggy</strong> (adjective) &#8211; baglike; droopy; hanging loosely</p>
<p><em>Baglike</em>? <em>Droopy</em>? Those are two words I don&#039;t want people to immediately think of when they see me walking down the street. Especially <em>droopy</em> &#8212; do I need to explain why that&#039;s an unattractive adjective?</p>
<p>Maybe it worked for MC Hammer and his parachute pants (temporarily!), but baggy is out. In a recent Cosmo survey, over 55% of women say too many men wear big, bulky sweaters and baggy pants. They want to &#034;see a hint of what&#039;s underneath&#034;.</p>
<p>This doesn&#039;t mean go out and buy a bunch of tight spandex shirts and biker shorts &#8212; the key word is &#034;hint&#034;. They just want a general idea of what&#039;s under the hood without you broadcasting it through a mesh muscle shirt.</p>
<p>As for jeans, the same rule applies. Women said they don&#039;t like the huge elephant pants, but they don&#039;t want you strutting around in body-hugging pleather pants either. Go for something in between that is snugger around the waist and upper legs, but still has room for movement. The best thing you can do is take your girlfriend or a female friend with you when shopping. They will appreciate that you value their opinion, and they will know what looks great on you, before you buy something that isn&#039;t quite up to par.</p>
<p>Now, for those of you who haven&#039;t quite got into revealing shape just yet (you&#039;re working on it though, right?), you can still stick to the slightly looser fitting options. Just use this as even more motivation to get in shape. Imagine being able to look great in just jeans and a $2 T-shirt, simply because of the subtle physique she can picture underneath.</p>
<p>So, unless you plan on bulking up and putting on about 25 pounds of muscle to fill out all those trash bags in your closet, toss them, and go get some clothes that actually fit.</p>
<p><i>P.S. &#8211; Did anyone try last week&#039;s grooming tip, <a href="http://www.fitbuff.com/7-steps-to-natural-acne-free-skin/">7 Steps to Natural Acne-Free Skin</a>? If so, let me know if you saw any improvements.</i></p>
