* Use a nice smelling body lotion to moisturize your skin.

* Face masks are good every so often to cleanse pores. If you don’t have face mask then use 1/2 a mashed up banana and 2 tbsp of honey. Also beware of the cheap face masks if you have sensitive skin - they can burn and itch causing an unattractive red rash.

* Fruits and Vegetables! If you are healthy on the inside, you will glow on the outside.

* Scent. If you look fab but smell of B.O then you need to invest in a good deodorant, like Mitchum, Ban, or Secret. If you have a big problem with sweat and normal deoderants don’t work, try drysol or certain-dri. You could also use a nice perfume, but be sure you’re not just covering up the odor. Also, use a antibacterial soap such as dial, this takes away the odor from sweat. Be sure to shower every single day whether you have bad B.O. or not.

* Buy one really durable purse, either black or white so it goes with everything. Get really bold, chunky necklaces and bangles. Bangles and long layered necklaces are so hot this season that you will find them anywhere. Flip flops go with practically anything. Jellies are totally coming back in style now too. But get from a place where they will LAST.

* You could use smokers’ toothpaste even if you aren’t a smoker, since it’s good at removing stains on teeth.

* On that note, don’t smoke. If you do smoke, quit. If you don’t smoke, keep it that way.

* Improve your posture. Stand up straight and tuck in your tummy. It makes you look slimmer and more confident. If you can’t suck in your tummy for long, try a girdle. It may take you forever to find one, but it’s worth it.

* Get into a daily routine every night. Shower using a quality shampoo and conditioner that’s good for your hair, as well as a loofa and moisturizing bodywash. Once out of the shower, moisturize with body lotion. Use a cleanser on your face followed by face moisturizer.

* Ask others’ opinions on your appearance. Ask someone that is going to be honest about things that would make you more attractive, like a good girl friend or family member other than your mom. Be ready for an honest opinion, and don’t get mad if you don’t like what you hear.

* Don’t completely transform yourself from one thing to another, do it gradually and subtly. For instance, instead of walking through school on the first day wearing a mini skirt, high heels, chunky colorful jewelry, huge hoop earrings and a tiny belly shirt, try just doing something like jeans and heels, maybe a few bangles.

* Wax your eyebrows, underarms, and wherever else you have cumbersome, unwanted hair. It’s best to go to a salon because it’s hard to wax areas yourself. If you have dark upper lip hairs, try bleaching them. You can buy a cheap bleaching kit at any drugstore. But if you go into the sun with bleached hair, the sun makes them shiny and they will be noticeable as you walk/move.

* If you have over-tweezed your eyebrows, fill them in using an angled brush and a powder the same colour as your natural hair colour (or one shade lighter).

* Use an eyelash curler, followed by clear mascara. Then add a couple layers of black mascara. This will give your eyelashes good length, volume and texture. You will look gorgeous with longer, dark, mysterious, sexy, exciting eyelashes.
