Avoid sex the day before and you will be fine.

well, I won't say for 100% but for things like pap smears and that they tell you to avoid sex the day before you have it done as semen can obscure the test.

So based on that...
Like if you were going for a test tomorrow (weds) and you had sex last night (mon) but not today/tonight (tues) you should be fine.

even though you can't see it, your skin is covered with its own special oil called sebum (say: see-bum). Sebum is found on the outermost layer of skin. Sebum moistens, or lubricates (say: loo-bruh-kaytes), and protects your skin. It also makes your skin a bit waterproof. That's why water runs off your skin when you wash your hands, instead of soaking it in like a sponge would.

But staying in water for a long time washes away the sebum. Then, the water can penetrate the outer layer of your skin. This causes your skin to become waterlogged. So how does this lead to wrinkles? No one is really sure.

Some people think it's because the skin expands to allow extra water inside. The expanded skin ends up looking really wrinkly. Other people think that it's because the skin is tied down to the tissue underneath in certain places. So when the skin is full of water, it swells up (gets puffy), but only in places where it is not tied down, which makes it look wrinkly.


lmao I found this on a kids site. I love the phoenetics!!
