You know how you wake up some days, look in the mirror and just think, “Hey I look pretty okay today!” Maybe you got a couple extra hours of sleep or maybe the window is letting in that perfect natural light that makes your skin glow. I was pondering about that in relation to makeup […]
Can a patch test predict acne? Janelly asks…I would like to know if patch testing a product for acne can really work. I see this concept mentioned a lot on Reditt as a way to test if a new skincare product will cause acne. That’s a great question but patch testing for acne does NOT work. […]
Should your cosmetics be biodegradable? Fabi asks about biodegradable products… I have an outdoor shower and it drains into the ground and everyone tells me I have to have biodegradable shampoo, conditioner, and body wash for the ground. Can you explain biodegradable products? It’s really hard to find them. What they’re all about and why […]
How can I tell if a store brand mouthwash is the same as the expensive name brand? Victoria says…My husband insists that all name brand products are stronger and better than store brands.

How does Tresemme Beauty-Full Volume Reverse Wash haircare system work? Jess says…I just saw an ad for the Tresemme Beauty-Full Volume system. Is there really something to conditioning first and then shampooing or are they just convincing us to wash our money down the drain? Let’s talk a little bit about the process of reverse […]
What’s the deal with micellar water make up removers? Taylor asks…I’m a new listener and enjoy your show so much. (Gets me through the work day) I want to know the hype about micellar water and is this something new or just a mild makeup remover with a “fancy name.” Micellar waters are named after […]
There are two ways of “linkifying” URLs in a TextView. First, as an XML attribute: <TextView … android:autoLink=”phone|web” /> and second, programmatically: TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text1); Linkify.addLinks(textView, Linkify.PHONE_NUMBERS | LINKIFY.WEB_URLS); In both the cases, the framework internally registers a LinkMovementMethod on the TextView that handles dispatching a ACTION_VIEW Intent when any link is clicked.
