I have help for a couple of you girls! Kate: The reason you are supposed to throw away the makeup is because it can build up bacteria. The worst culprit is mascara and eyeshadow. I don't think that there are a lot of single serve items for this, if any. Depending on the type of makeup you are buying, I am sure there is something that will help you (I personally keep my makeup a little longer than I am supposed to because I don't share it and I use quality makeup brushes that I clean after using). I think you can probably keep your makeup longer than the norm, but remember that you are doing so at your own risk (I have never had an issue, but this is more of a you never know what could happen kind of thing). Nadege: To get rid of scars, try Microderm Abraision and a product called Demarkable. Use the Demarkable creme as instructed, and then Microderm the area once or twice a week to help remove the damaged skin. You can get both of these products at www.beautipage.com/bethanyharrison Frenchy: If you want a sample of a quality skin care, check out www.beautipage.com/bethanyharrison and take the skin care e-profile to see which will work best for you. Then contact the consultant that runs the page and let her know what it recommended and she can get you a sample. :) This skin care is fantastic and has cleared up my fiance's acne completely and has helped to transform my face too (I have rosacea, which is somewhat similar to acne) Hope this helps everyone!
 
Tyra i'm 19 a beginning model i'm doing pretty good building up my portfolio, but theres only one problem i'm breaking out bad.I don't have alot of money and don't know what to do.is there any advise or maybe even some type of sample of something you could send me or recommend me. It would be a life saver.Thanks so much frenchy
 
I no this is kind of off topic but this is the only area that i think this might be appropreate to type. I think you should seriously talk about SI and SM, those stand for Self Injury and Self Mutilation, i do it, my friends do it, and its a huge issue that i think should be discussed. So many teens do it now days, even if its just once or twice, and it is very addictive, and it sucks once you are addicted and it ruins your life because no one wants to talk to the girl that has a problem and as a result has scars all down her arms. This effects so many people and I hope maybe one day you wil discuss it on your show, it would help out a lot of teen girls, and guys. -Emily
 
This is to Kate MaryKay is one that has single samples, I dont sell it so I dont know if you can buy it or not. But surely someone would hook you up for two or three of those. Also Fashion Fair used to have very nice sample sizes of makeup. Or a real frugal way go to a makeup counter,just to be fair buy at least one thing you can use always like moisturizer, or sunblock or bronzer.
 
Hey tyra,I really enjoy watching your show every day!you are very funny and a great person.I have some dark marks on one of my leg from runing and hurting myself when I was a child..I was wondering what can I do to make the dark marks invisible?because it's summer time and I feel like I should be able 2 show my legs..:)
 
Tyra, I've watched your show several times and found it informative, funny and overall enjoyable. I'm writing to share something with you and your audience. I work for a new hosiery company in St. Louis. We're called Divine Dzion. I would love to send a pair to you to try and maybe share them with your crew or audience. We have a variety of colors and sizes and we are just looking for that one break into the market. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

I just want to let Tyra know I think she is great. She is doing an awesome job! I enjoy both ANTM and the Tyra show I love that she does both serious and fun topics. She comes across so genuine and down to earth across the board. I think she is a great role model keep up the good work!
 
Hello Tyra, I am a 28 year old woman and I have a 2 child ren(little boys 7 and 8) I have been a jeans and tennis shoe girl my whole life but in my older age I have changed and have a new found love for shoes ( you wear great shoes) but I have a major problem really a coulpe of problems, the 1st is I dont have much money and the second is I have HUGE feet I wear a 12. I can not find affordable shoes (nice shoes) that fit do you think that you could give me some direction. Thanks in advance, Dara Patterson
 
Tyra, A few weeks ago, on you show you talked about how make-up expires and how they should be thrown out after a couple/few months. Well, What about those of us who only wear make-up once, twice, maybe 3 times a year? Are we to buy new products each time and trash them after one use? Are there any "single serving" sized make-up? Thanks, *Kate
