Step 1: It's a good idea to get a wardrobe that looks great on you.
It doesn't have to be a brand name to make you look good.Aeropostale, Roxy, Old Navy, Hollister, A'GACI, Rue 21, American Eagle, River Island, Target, Walmart, Brandy Melville and more are some of the great stores to try.You should get clothes that are appropriate for your age.People will think you're a poser if you copy anyone's fashion style.As you shop for the perfect clothes, keep in mind some things.Remember to add accessories if your school has uniforms.It's okay if you mix clothes together and make things trendy in a unique, 'you'-kind-of-way' to show off your own style while using just the tiniest bit of copying from someone else.Mom jeans are fashionable.Some people look great in baggy jeans, but not everyone.Boys should wear baggy jeans if they want to go for that particular look.You can make your own Distressed jeans.If you want to blend the holes, get help from an older sibling or cousin.You can experiment with fabric before you cut your jeans.Learn how to wear jeans.There are sweaters!lightweight v-neck sweaters with a tank top for girls are in style.Polo shirts are not nerdy if you wear them correctly.Try a simple polo with skinny jeans and shoes.A polo in a basic color is nice.If you want to get a polo, get some from either of the brands.They are known for their shirts.If you can't afford polo shirts from these stores, there are good ones at other stores.Polo shirts don't look good on girls with breasts, and are often form fitting, showing where the top of your jeans may have a muffin top.According to some, hoodies are essential.They go with everything.baggy and loose can look cute with skinnies, so make sure the hoodie is a good fit.There is a sweater and skirt combo for girls.

Step 3: You should keep your look natural.
The girls just use lip balm or gloss and mascara.You will look fake if you use thick eyeliner.There is a light amount on your skin that can hide under eye circles.There is a concealer that has built up in medicine.Sometimes you can go natural.If you want to try makeup, make sure you ask your parents.

When you're about to go to bed, wash your face once in the morning and then use a cleanser that's perfect for you.If you end up with a peck on your skin, don't squeeze it, because it can lead to a permanent mark.A loop on the end of a special tool can be used to remove skin problems.You can put a towel over your head and fill the sink with warm water if you want to wash your face.The steam will open your skin.Put liquid cover-up on after it dries.You will have a bigger problem if you wash your face more than twice a day because it will dry out your skin and make it flaky.
Step 5: It's a good idea to get a manicure.
You can give yourself a manicure.Target has inexpensive nail polishes and nail sticker sets.Students can be trained to do manicures for $5.If you want to learn how to do any design on your own, you can go to YouTube.If manicures are not your thing, you don't have to go out and get them.
Step 6: Don't be dirty.
You should brush your teeth twice a day, use a mouthwash, and wash your hair frequently.Don't get carried away with the styling products.If you are a boy, look for a hair styling cream that comes in a tub.If you're a girl, you don't need a lot of things: rubber bands, headbands, and a light hair spray.If you want a different hair style, you can buy a curling iron.It's important to wash hard hair because it isn't attractive.Clear bands can be obtained if you have braces.Make sure you don't eat something that can stain the bands.
