Being the "prettiest girl in school" goes beyond mere appearances. Taking care of your body, eating better, exercising and looking after the health of your skin and nails will not only improve your appearance, but you will also feel better and more confident. To be and feel more beautiful you need to perfect your look by wearing clothes that fit your body shape and improving your attitude.
Steps
Part 1 of 3: Taking Care of Your Body
Step 1. Eat healthily
This is a fundamental step to improve the health of the body and mind, but also to purify the skin and feel full of energy. Your diet will be more balanced if you increase the consumption of fruit and vegetables, replace white pasta with wholemeal ones and give preference to leaner meats instead of red or fatter ones. You should also limit the amount of salt you use to season your dishes. If you're used to eating salty foods, such as sauces, dressings, and prepared soups, look for low-sodium variants.
- For example, if you want to make a vegetable-based dish, you can increase the dose recommended in the recipe or use a wider variety of plant sources.
- If you want to cook spaghetti, try buying whole wheat ones. If ground beef is included in a recipe, use turkey or chicken.
- Avoid processed foods as much as possible.
Step 2. Get in shape
Find time to play sports and stay fit. Endorphins produced during exercise can improve mood and make you feel more confident about your body. You don't have to be skinny or have a particular build to be pretty. By exercising, you will keep yourself healthy and feel beautiful regardless of your build.
- There are so many ways to get fit. Many people run every day, some train by watching video clips, some go to the gym, some play outdoor sports, use weights, run up and down stairs, go hiking or dance indoors.
- You should speak to your doctor before starting any type of high intensity training. It will be able to tell you if your body is able to support it.
Step 3. Take care of your skin
You will be prettier if you take care of your skin regularly. You need to use a cleanser and moisturizer every day and exfoliate your face a couple of times a week.
- A light moisturizer, containing sunscreen, will give you naturally glowing skin.
- When taking a shower, use a loofah sponge to remove dead skin cells and keep your skin fresh and glowing.
Step 4. Take care of your nails
A healthier diet contributes to indirectly improve the health of the nails, but there are many other measures for the beauty of your hands. By having manicured nails you will also be more attractive. Clean them every day with soap and water and cut them every one to two weeks, depending on the length you prefer. You should also file them so they are even and regular.
- If you notice that they tend to crack or flake, cut them shorter. It is much more important that the nails are healthy rather than long.
- Try to polish them especially at the weekend and use a more subdued nail polish, such as clear or a single color, during the week.
Part 2 of 3: Get the Right Look
Step 1. Wear clothes that fit your physique
Any garment you wear should fit you perfectly, give you a neat look and lean towards a more classic style. You will certainly be prettier wearing clothes that give the shape of your body.
- If you are chubby (or, as they say, apple-shaped), avoid clothing and accessories that draw the eye to the central area of the body, such as trousers or high-waisted belts. Tight pants, straight dresses, and tunics are great choices if you have this build.
- If you have a pear-shaped physique (i.e. with your hips wider than your shoulders or bust), avoid baggy clothing, skinny jeans, and fabrics that are too thin and tight. Instead, they will give your body the palazzo pants, the screwed jackets and the boat neck sweaters.
- If you are hourglass-shaped (that is, with large breasts, a narrow waist, and wide hips), avoid shapeless clothes, such as box dresses, tunics, or cardigans that are too large. Give preference to high-waisted trousers, body-hugging dresses and V-neck sweaters.
- If you have a boxy (sometimes referred to as "masculine") physique, avoid tight clothing that emphasizes shapes and less soft upper areas. Boot-cut trousers and fitted jackets will suit your build.
Step 2. Try to always be taken care of
If you want to be pretty, you need to look neat, as if you've thought carefully about your look before you leave the house. This depends a lot on your personal style, but in any case make sure you comb your hair and keep it always in order, wear pretty accessories or choose clothing that suits your body.
Step 3. Comb
It is easy to apply something in your hair or collect it in a ponytail before leaving the house in the morning. However, you will look prettier if you study your hair well. So, do some experimenting to come up with simple hairstyles based on the length and structure of your hair.
If you always run during the day and find your hair starting to curl, apply a small amount of moisturizing lotion to your head
Step 4. Spend some time on makeup
Each girl has her own makeup preferences. However, you may look better by applying only foundation, mascara, and concealer. Use your fingers if you want to apply a simple layer of foundation, or a brush if you want more coverage. With a brush, apply a little powder in the so-called "T-zone" (along the nose and forehead) to prevent a film of sebum from forming on top of the make-up.
You can prepare your eyelids for any type of look by using a matte eyeshadow that matches the lightest areas of the skin, usually the neck. Apply it on the eyelids, in the creases of the eye and on the brow bone. You can also use a primer for preparation
Step 5. Maintain good posture
Self-confidence is a very attractive trait. One of the simplest ways to convey it is to improve posture. When standing, keep your shoulders back and look straight (not at the ground). If you are sitting, don't give in to the temptation to lean over your desk or table. Rather, imagine an ever-taut rope running across the top of the head and running down the spine. You will be surprised how much you look and feel prettier as you improve your posture.
Part 3 of 3: Having the Right Attitude
Step 1. Don't be obnoxious
It is often thought that the most beautiful girls are also the most ruthless. You don't have to lose your sweetness to be pretty. On the contrary, it could affect your charm. So, be nice - ask people how they are doing and offer your help if you see them in trouble.
Step 2. Trust yourself
Self-confident people are also more attractive in the eyes of others. To increase your confidence, be prepared for the various situations you may find yourself in. In other words, study and go to school, deepen your research on the company you will be interviewing for, or check out movies at the cinema before you plan with your friends.
Step 3. Smile more
Generally, a smiling person looks more interesting than someone who always looks sulky. So, by smiling more, you will look prettier and even more approachable towards others.
Step 4. Be yourself
Have you ever noticed that people who seem to know who they are and have no problem proving their personality seem more attractive? Therefore, you will be much more beautiful if you stay true to your style in your makeup, clothing or choice of accessories. One of the easiest ways to be yourself is to follow your intuition. If something isn't your thing - whether it's a dress, some type of makeup, or something that friends or other people you care about want to do - feel free not to accept.
Advice
- Learn to love yourself. You will fuel your self-confidence.
- Don't bite your nails.
- Be foresighted. Think about the clothes, makeup, and accessories the night before. This way you will be more organized and reduce stress. As you prepare, you will also be able to sleep better and, as a result, you will feel better and be more beautiful.
- Decide what clothes to wear to school the night before and take care of your personal hygiene.
Warnings
- Don't try to look like anyone else. While this behavior will allow you to win the hottest guy in school, after all, he won't be liking your true character.
- Don't look like all the others, otherwise you will go unnoticed. Make a few small tweaks to stand out from the crowd.
