Recently I realized that I want to become prettier, I want to take better care of not just my face but my body too. Sadly i have no idea how to do that on my own and I'm too shy and awkward to ask my friends or family, so I was wondering if you could tell me some sites where i can learn more about beauty? I'm not sure if this belongs in personal, but I do consider it my personal problem, and everyone around me has started becoming prettier and more stylish and I'm just here like.... I want to change too!!!

I dont know any sites or anything but i just wanted to say that being pretty now is too mainstream.i think u r considered special if u dont just do something coz everybody is doing it,it means u have a strong personality.

you likely will have to make a list of what you eat through out the week and try and cut out any unhealthy foods, I,e stuff that has lots of sugar in it, which is the main course of putting on weight, but also doing a fair amount of exercise will help too.

hope that helps.

I can't help but find your last sentence cute XD But hey, I'm in this situation too! In order to become more beautiful I would say, identify what you like about yourself and what you want to improve also what you want to get or become. Set goals and a routine and follow it, it will take some time but it's worth the effort. I personally want to be fit, improve my posture(this one you should consider ;). ) you can try natural remedies for your skin such as olive oil, fruits etc. google it and discover the benefits! After all Healthy is beautiful :D
discover other hairstyles, change your hairstyle every now and then as the way you make your hair changes your look alot.

consider exercise, tone your body make it look pretty and fit. There are even face exercises "Facercise".

let's not forget sleep and water intake!

look up fashion trends, small changes can make big differences in the way you look. oh there are so many things!~

^ to some of you above, I think she means taking care of her body. Not simply looks.

>>1Yeah I really don't know any sites. A lot of it you just find out when you have no other choice.

So where do we start...Hair removal? Hair care? nail health? Skin care?

You'll find some good youtube videos out there for hair removal, there's 4 ways of doing this.
1. Epilator (hurts the most though)
2. Waxing (hurts a bit but worth it)
3. Shaving (pain free)
4. Cream (pain free and effort free)

For facial hair, don't shave please <__>.

For skin, massage/gently scrub your face with an exfoliating cream at least twice a week. And every morning use either foamy cleanser or a milk-based soap such as goat's milk soap (love it). When you do all this, make sure you do it with warm water and damped your face with warm water before starting. Once you finish splash with cold water, dry it, then moisturize. Keep note of which moisturizer is good for you4 skin (is it too oily? to dry? etc.)

Then do whatever the hell makeup you wanna do.

Hear the semi-wise words of the Robot master.
Workout and make a plan, wear clothes that make you feel comfortable, have dem eyebrows on point same with dat makeup. Even if your a dude gotta have that bleeding black eyeliner to make you seem all the more bootilicious.
And of course if anyone calls you ugly you have every right to blow there knees out with a sledge hammer and run them over slowly with a steam roller.
