The article offers step-by-step instructions for making several gifts including iPod case and CD box.

The article presents information on how a girl can surprise her best female friend (BFF) by throwing a party on her birthday. To make the occasion more personal a girl can photocopy her BFF's baby picture onto cardstock and make post-card-style invites. She should have a pay-to-play policy and ask each party-goer to pitch in. She can call a local dance studio to organize a salsa lesson at a group rate. She should dole out small jobs--someone will pick up balloons, another girl could bake a cake. The host girl can make pizza by herself and buy cup cakes and pipe her BFF's first-name initial in colored icing on the top of each cake. Before the big day she can host a scrap-booking session. After the girl's BFF blows out the candles give her the personalized present. And, finally, burn the party songs onto several blank CDs to have fun.

the article offers some beauty tips for sporty girls to look fabulous while playing in the field. Sporty girls should apply sun-protection creams like Neutrogena Active Breathable Sunblock which absorbs oil and feels extra light. If they need a little coverage on the field they should opt for a tinted moisturizer, then dust a pressed powder over your nose and forehead to keep you dry. If they want to really get girly they should use an eyelash curler for lusher-looking lashes. While playing outside they should top their pencil with a protective balm like Sun Smackers Trio. While being in the field or track they should keep their hands away from their face and keep their hair off your neck and back as much as possible. Girls should never skip their post-game shower and swipe their face with non-foaming Noxzema Wet Cleansing Cloths to mop up dirt, sweat and oil.

The article presents information on do's and don'ts for getting a new style for hairs. Before the first appointment, get a consultation. Stay open-minded about the hairdresser's opinion. She might have ideas one did not consider. After all, she styles hair for a living. Come in with the hair the way one usually wears it to give the stylist an idea as to what she will be working with and what one wants to change. It is good to be realistic about the hair texture. Some styles are great, but if one's hair is too thin or curly it may require too much work to maintain.

This article presents information related to various perfumes available in the market. Most fragrances fall into one of several scent categories: (1) Woodsy scents are soft, sweet and earthy, like Stila Crème Bouquet. (2) Orientals are more intense, with a strong spicy/sweet smell, like Stacked Style Empress Lily. (3) Florals, such as Lancôme So Magic!, smell like flowers. (4) Green scents come from plants — grass, herbs, leaves — as in Fruits & Passion Human. (5) Oceanic scents are fresh and clean — try Davidoff Cool Water Woman.

This article presents tips to teenagers related to choosing the perfect undergarments. Believe it or not, seventy percent of girls wear the wrong-size bra. Getting a good fit is especially tough when a teenager's body is constantly changing. So get sized often, and don't buy a ton of bras. Hit a department store or lingerie boutique for a personal fitting, or log on to www.barelythere.com for instructions. For the perfect panty fit, measure around the hipbone, about two inches below the belly button.

It is finally summer and one always spend the time with one's best friend. Maybe one's friend has double-duty with her father during the summer and has rounded up new friends from her neighborhood. When one's friend is in a seasonal social whirlwind, one can end up with a lot of free space on one's calendar. Rather than sulking and feeling totally threatened by one's pal's posse, share her excitement about her newfound friendships. She is probably meeting a bunch of people who share her interests and that rocks. If one attempt to keep her all to oneself, she is going to feel pressured and will likely back away and then one will see even less of her.
