1
Be confident. There is no point sitting in your bedroom worrying over your looks. You can put a change to it and there are ways of bringing in confidence. Walk with your back straight, and don't slouch. Have a positive outlook on everything.

2
Be clean and hygienic. Bath or shower everyday, and wash hair frequently. Do not leave hair more than 3 days - it could turn very greasy!
3
Find a different haircut and purchase hair products. Try a hairstyle to suit your face shape - and have it cut at a salon professionally. Not only will this be more accurate, the style will frame your face properly, the stylists will help pick a style with you to suit you, and the products used will be much better. Try a textured cut or a brand new fringe or side-fringe, or maybe have it cut in a bob! Try not to have it cut in a boy-style length. Keep it girly!!! Try out products like:
- - scrunching jelly
  - mouse
  - straightening cream
  - heat protector serum or spray
  - hairspray
  - gel (for wearing hair up)
4
Wash face and moisturize. If you wear make-up, remove it properly with make-up remover. Cleanse the face with facial wash (this will help with spots), try a spot cream if you get spots often, and moisturize skin.
5
Keep nails in good order. Grow them. But while you're waiting, try dipping them in olive oil each night, and why not jazz them up a it with some pretty pastel-pale colored, sensible nail polishes? French manicure is always most effective.
6
Try a little make-up. If you're under 18, its best to keep it toned down. If you have acne, then consider foundation - but make sure it is the same color and same as your skin tone, and wear the color powder over the top. But if you don't have acne, then just try a cover-stick your skin color over the spots, and the tap a little powder to set it in place. Try covering under-eye circles in the same way. Add vasaline to your lips and pink your cheeks for a rosy glow (then add a little Vaseline for a 'glow'). Try a little bit of mascara. Don't go as far as false lashes, and make it look natarual, yet noticeable. Always make sure you look natarual - and don't wear any more make-up than that except from special occasions with your parents approval.
7
Be a nice, sweet person. if you are horrible on the inside, then it will show on the outside. Be nice to people, share your things, and work hard in lessons.
8
Smile. Smiling makes you look more attractive. When somebody catches your eye, sweetly smile. Be polite to people - and nice.
9
Brush your teeth! Try out mints and teeth whitener.
10
Dress nicely. Instead of wearing boring trousers, try out skirts (not too short!) and long socks, but don't look tarty. Alternately, try a classy scarf and some stud earrings.
11
Don't become obsessed with looks. Its on the inside what counts.
