I look tired. I've got that recently punched in the face, never bothered to sleep sort of look. So when I came across these in my New Beauty Test Tube, I was pretty thrilled to try them out. As you can see from the above photo, the actual "masks" are like a "second skin," which is what they're referred to as in the directions. Well, I had no idea they were actually grafted slabs of human flesh. More Here...

Help A Lovely: Should The Guy Always Pay?

A Lovely writes:

My boyfriend and I have always split the bills everywhere we go. One week he will pay for our dinner out, the next week I will. However, recently I have had some unexpected bills that I need to pay off and he told me he would pay for all of our outings until I was more financially secure. BUT every time we do go out, he complains that he has to pay. Should I just pay even though I can't afford it? What would you do in this situation?

Help A Lovely: How Can I Get My Boyfriend To Cut Back On Gaming?

Lovelyish reader ohhmademoiselle writes:

I wouldn't classify my boyfriend as having a full video game obsession, but more of him having a hobby.

Before you make any judgments about my relationship, my boyfriend is the sweetest, most caring man you'll ever meet. He helps me through my anxiety issues. He's always there for me. We have fun together. We have a good sex life. We're madly in love and I can tell we have a strong relationship.

The only issue I have with our relationship is the distraction his video games cause when I'm trying to have a conversation with him. I know chatting online isn't exactly formal, but it's still conversation time for us and that's when he also plays his games.
