How to seem perfect :)

Now, I know this may seem a little bit awkward, but as teenage girls, we all know we wanna be this. We all look up to girls in a higher grade than us, our friend's older sisters, family members, or even somebody we see on television, and want to be just like them. I get it. I do the EXACT same thing. And, I am SURE you have heard this before, but nobody is perfect. They may seem like it, but we ALL have our flaws. Now, looking perfect and BEING perfect are two different things. This first part (part 1) is taking care of your appearance - basically how to look perf. STEP 1: Take care of your skin. People won't veiw you as "oerfect" if you have blemishes and dry skin. Just choose a gentle face wash and moisturizer, and dont pick at your skin. Try and use a face mask once a week. STEP 2: Take good care of your hair. If you have thick hair, try straightening it, but ALWAYS use heat protectant. If you have fine, straight hair, try curling it, and add volume. If you dont always want to add heat to your hair, try putting it in six braids at night, sleep in it, take the out in the morning and immediately blow-dry your hair. Never wear the same hairstyle every day. You always need to change it up a bit. :) STEP 3: Wear makeup. Now, you do NOT have to wear a full face of makeup if you are not comfortable with it. A good amount of makeup for starters would be mascara, blush, eyeshadow, and lip gloss. If you are comfortable with it, you can wear a full face of makeup. (foundation, concealer, powder, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, lipstick, blush, and lipgloss.) Just, don't get too carried away with too-dark foundation, or dark red lipstick. Look N-A-T-U-R-A-L. STEP 4 Have good style. Wear whatever is cute, plus some brand name stuff, it won't hurt. And, ACCESSORIZE. NEVER wear something that you tink is ugly, or you dont feel comfortable wearing. Wear stuf that fits in your comfort zone, but at the same time would be appealing to others. STEP 5:Smell great. I know this might seem random, but would you ever label someone as "perfect" if they didnt smell decently? Well, I am here to tell you, be clean, deodorize, and wear a little purfume in the mornings. STEP 6:Maintain your nails. If you cant always keep a fresh coat of nail polish of them, keep them shiny and filed down, at least. Get professionally done manicures every once in a while. PART 2: HOW TO ACT STEP 1: Be kind. You may think of a popular girl as being stuck up and snobby, but to be viewed as "perfect", you would not want to be a total jerk. The thing is, if you put somebody down, people will just think that you just have insecurites. Expand your circle of friends, say hello to people in the hallway, even if you may only have one class with them. This will really help your reputation. STEP 2: Be confident. This is a MAJOR one. Always, always keep your head held high. Have good posture, and smile very often. When you smile, allow your eyes to crinkle to make it seem like a more real and genuine smile. I hope this helped!
