Cell Phone Culprit

Q: Can my phone give me pimples? A: We all love chatting on the phone, but we definitely don’t love the pimples it can cause! Yep, that phone you’re pressing up against your cheek can definitely lead to pimples. Oil and dirt can easily transfer from your skin, hair, and fingers right onto your phone, so the next time you answer a call that oil and dirt is heading right back into your pores to clog them up! But we’re not asking you to give up your phone! Just make sure to clean your phone after a few uses, and try not to hold your phone up against your skin. Use your hand (no more shoulder!) to hold your phone up to your ear but away from your face. Enjoy chatting!

Just got my cell

I just got my cell last week. If you make sure little siblings aren’t listening, you can turn on the speaker phone feature, then you can still chat, hands free.

I am shy and don’t like talking on the phone so only face to face + texting for this girl. So I don’t have pimples.

Holy Shiz!

My gosh, I had no idea about that. And I hate pimples! But the thing is, I talk on the phone alot, but the pimples turn out on the bridge of my nose and above. I don’t put my phone there! So how come I have them? And I’ll pass that piece of advice to my friends, who have cell phones.
