Look Pretty


The best way to be pretty is to seem natural. You don't need to bury your face with eyeshadow and blush to look beautiful. This article will show you how to complement your natural shades and shapes to look and feel confident and naturally pretty! Confidence is the one most attractive characteristic in the world. Keep your posture right and your head up as this creates the feeling that you know who you are, what you want, how to be happy and enjoy life.

Smile! Making the effort to smile every once in a while will make you feel better about yourself, and make others feel positive. You can even practice smiling in the mirror--it'll be a great start to your day and set you off in the right mood. You never know who is appreciating your smile!

Use moisturizer suited to your skin type every day. Use a facial scrub at least once a day, but just washing your face doesn't always prevent acne.

Exfoliating, which is removing old skin layers, can certainly help:
-It can lessen blemishes that resulted from Acne.
-But if you have acne, you probably need professional help.


Try going for that fresh summer look by not plastering your face with makeup, but lightly adding it here and there. Makeup is made to enhance your features, not cover them. Apply an eyeliner- eyeliner will add definition to your eyes. Don't wear any shocking colors during the day. Keep natural during the day and play it up during the night. If you have pimples or other face irritation, use an acne formula that won't dry out your skin. Nobody likes scale-like skin!


Keep up to date with fashion magazines--but mix whats new with what you've got,add some of your own style to whats hip and hot,after all we don't want to be clones.
-Pick clothes that flatter your body, but don't go too far. People get the wrong impression if you show too much skin.
-You can be cute and look conservative at the same time! Try a pair of jeans and a nice sweater,or a skirt,make sure your shoes go with the outfit.


Flatter a 'blah' outfit with accessories, but don't over-accessorize! Try a headband or a cute necklace. Remember, less is more.


If you want to feel sexy, try something a little different, like a new skirt or new pair of underwear, but don't go overboard.
-Don't try to wear clothes that don't fit you. If it's too small, or too big, get it tailored or return it.
-Buy clothing that flatters you, so as to create a lean, curvaceous line.


Take care of your hair. Get it trimmed regularly:
-Always brush it, but not too much. Try straightening it to the side, or curling it wavy.
-If you wish to dye your hair, make sure it's one that suits your skin tone--two shades darker or lighter than the natural
color of your hair.


Stand up straight. This makes you look like you respect yourself, and others will follow your lead. Plus, it has the visual effect of smoothing out any bulges that aren't particularly flattering. Posture is important and can make you look more attractive.

Understand the value of inner beauty. There are "pretty" people in this world, but beauty is common. After talking to a few of them, you can begin to think that they aren't so pretty. A bad attitude towards others can make you seem really ugly inside, and make people stop paying attention to who you are on the outside.
-So remember that all the makeup in the world won't help if you are unhappy and negative towards others.
-Respect yourself, respect others and you will feel and look great.

Feel good about yourself. When you feel good, you look good. Have confidence.
-People are attracted to and feel comfortable with people who respect themselves. Liking yourself and respecting yourself doesn't mean you are conceited, it just shows others that you are happy about your appearance.
-A fun, light personality makes everyone comfortable and makes you more approachable.
-Be yourself, be warm to others, and feel great. Soon enough, others are bound to notice.

If your friends give you positive compliments, don't try to change them into negative ones, accept them and use them to make you feel even better. Expressing a modest "thank you" is much healthier than putting yourself down.

Exercise. Everyone loves someone who respects themselves and cares for their body. Looking great doesn't mean makeup and clothes and all that jazz, it means feeling good about yourself and staying healthy.
-Exercise for an hour or half hour at the least every day, and drink 8 glasses of water daily. The water helps you get a nice glow in your skin and makes your complexion much more clear.
-If you don't have time to get to the gym one day, try incorporating 40 minutes of brisk walking - this can be as simple as walking around on coffee and lunch breaks for 20 minutes at a time or even walking to work or school instead of driving or taking the bus.
-Any sports that you find interesting are nice, but if you don't play a sport find an exercise that fits you.

Get enough sleep. This will help you to always look your best. Regular sleeping patterns help your body to effectively regenerate and feel great the next day!

Body Brush everyday. Body brushing is just when you get a plastic(synthetic) or natural bristle brush and rub it in circular motions all over your body, working from the feet upwards and working towards the heart. It helps tone skin, reduce cellulite and it removes all the dead skin which makes you glow! Its best to do it in the morning, because it wakes you up. Make sure to always do it on dry skin.

Maintain good dental hygiene - Brush your teeth after every meal, floss twice daily, use mouth wash, and remember: the more you brush, the better it is.
-However, don't brush hard - you may think it cleans your teeth better, but it's only damaging them.
-Make sure you don't brush until at least 10 minutes after your meal. This can damage your enamel, which will never grow back! If you don't have time to wait, rinse your mouth with water instead.
-Whiten your teeth. Everyone looks better with whiter teeth, and it's not very expensive if you buy the strips you can apply yourself. Also, when you brush your teeth, brush your gums, tongue and inside of cheeks, it makes your mouth feel fresh.

Calculate your body mass index (BMI) to know your healthy weight range. Don't become obsessed with an absolute number or compare your weight to that of others.

Remove unwanted body hair. Depending on cultural preference, wax, shave, or pluck your leg hairs, bikini line (if you are going to be seen in underwear), armpits, eyebrows, and upper lip.

Smile with your eyes. The eyes are the window into one's soul, so if you smile with your eyes, people will immediately be drawn to you.
