Feel Good, Look Fabulous!

Get clean. Shower at least once every 2 days. But remember not to wash your hair everyday, especially if it's coloured! This will fade your colour and dry out your hair. Feeling and looking clean is crucial. Wash with a nice smelling body soap three times with a bathing sponge and you will smell great. Get out and pat yourself dry with a soft, fluffy towel, and rub in some rich body lotion that doesn't smell strong. You need to be soft and able to cuddle at all times, don't neglect your hands, elbows, and feet. If possible try to layer matching scents on your body, such as soap, lotion, powder, and perfume. For example: If you bathe with a citrus smelling body soap, try to wear a citrus-smelling lotion also. Also make sure you shave your legs and underarms. Have deodorant on so you don't have sweat stains.

Practice good dental hygiene as well. This includes brushing, flossing and even mouth wash. Clean your tongue with a tongue cleaner or a spoon every morning for fresh breath. Get a check up and have your teeth cleaned often. Invest in a good toothbrush, water pick, and mouthwash. Always keep mints or breath spray on hand.
 
Get groomed. Work with what you've got. But keep it neat and tidy. Trim finger and toe nails weekly, remembering to clean under the nail. No fancy nail polish colors are needed, but a simple beige color looks delicious.To do your eye brows with tweezers numb them with an ice cube then soothe them with any cream but if you can an Aloe Vera based one and pluck away. This takes away the pain and gives you full precision on the shape you want for your eyebrows. Or just wait until you get out of the shower, it'll hurt less. Once every 2 or 3 weeks, have a pampering day, including a manicure, pedicure, facial, and bubble bath, even if it's just a spa day at home.
 
Style your hair. Make a trip to the hair salon. A new cut or style will make you feel sexy and confident. Having a change of hair color is nice, too. Go for something natural and not too dramatic. Deep condition your hair at least once a month. In the mornings, flat iron your hair or put it in a messy bun, depending on your style. Adding extensions or a wig can radically change an everyday look from "ho-hum" to "wow" to turn a few heads. Studies show that most men are more attracted to longer hair. This is because longer, glossier hair is associated with health; if you get ill, the first thing the body stops maintaining is your hair in order to concentrate on sustaining more vital areas. And in terms of evolution, it makes more sense for a guy to be attracted to a healthy girl, it's become natural to be attracted to hair that looks more healthy. Get split ends treated for shinier hair and use heat protectant to prevent them from coming back.
 
Create winning skin. Do a steam facial maybe once a week for up to 10 minutes, to open up your pores and get rid of blackheads and acne. To do this, get a bowl of boiling water and a towel, and just sit with your face in the steam, using the towel as a little tent/mini sauna over your head and the bowl. Doing it for longer then 10 minutes will just stress out your skin, which will just make it worse, so be careful. Wash your face right away afterwards with a cleanser made for your type of skin. Then rinse and splash your face with cold water to close your pores or, alternatively, get an ice cube and wait for it to melt a little. Then smooth it gently over your face until it melts; this closes your pores and prevents dirt going back into them. An alternative to this is to use a facial scrub to get rid of flaky, dead skin cells.
  • Optional: Put on a self-tanner lotion for the face. (2 shades darker is perfect for pale skin types) Put a dime size on each cheek and one on your forehead. Blend into your complexion. Wait until dry, about 2 minutes, and wait about 30 minutes until you see results. The great thing about self tanners is that they last all day and you don't have to reapply it like make-up. For darker skin tones, use a bronzer on the cheeks and lids for a more natural sun-kissed glow with lip gloss on the lips. 
Show your style.
Look in the mirror. Pick your features of which you are most satisfied with, and show them off with clothes, makeup, or accessories. If you seem to know what you've got, others will get the message and notice you for what you have.
  • Invest in a good pair of curve-hugging jeans. Dark denim looks good on all body types.
Pick some clothes that flatter your figure and that you feel comfortable in. There's no point picking the latest fashions if you don't feel comfortable in them. Pick clothes that make you feel like you.
  • Wear lace-up flats or sneakers. Flats are cute and comfortable, two characteristics that you rarely ever find together in the shoe department.
  • Wear jewelry that excites you. Find colorful, fun, bright chunky necklaces and bracelets, but if you wear lots of pearls and beads, don't wear a shirt that has a pattern or a picture on it. Wear a monochromatic top with lots of multicolored jewelry.
  • Black is sexy. It hides fat, creates curves and makes you feel like a goddess.
  • Sexy undergarments. But don't flash them. Be classy about it otherwise you look trashy. Try to maintain class as much as possible, while still being sexy. 
Wear make-up. Just make sure not to go overboard. Subtle is very sexy in the same way that less is more. Accent one feature at a time. For example, one day, put on lip-liner, bold red lipstick, and mascara. For another day, wear subtle pink or clear lip gloss, and wear eye-liner to make your eyes stand out. If you need help creating a look, a mall makeup counter or independent beauty consultant would be happy to teach you for free.
Get-in-Shape. Create a workout plan. Crunches and lunges equal flat, hard ab muscles, lunges equal toned legs, and squats equal a toned backside. Running or jogging works all muscles of the body and increases your stamina. Plus, the hormones your body releases while exercising carry on through your evening activities to contribute to your new sexy attitude.
    • Remember that if your workout goal is to lose weight, you're going to need to sweat, and for an extended period of time. Lifting weights will help you drop pounds, since muscle mass burns calories increasing your metabolism. If weight loss is your goal, a good starting point is to do something that gets your heart rate up, like walking briskly, swimming, dancing, or biking, for 30 minutes, 3 times per week. Most importantly, make sure you are burning more calories in a day than you consume. This is the only way you will ever lose weight. If you exercise a bunch but then gorge yourself you will be more fit but still will not lose fat.
    • Choose a work-out regimen that you enjoy. Hate running? Then don't run. Try different activities until you find one that makes you happier than you were when you began. Then, stick with it. Give it a week or two; once you're "over the hump," it will start feeling like fun instead of torture.
    • If you're dissatisfied with your body, by all means, work on getting healthier, but remember that "sexy" isn't a body shape. It's an aura. So start working on feeling sexy now. Getting slim and toned can augment sexiness, but it can never replace it. Owning a Steinway isn't the same thing as being a master pianist; in the same way, owning a "hot" body isn't the same thing as being sexy. Learn to play the "piano" you've got. Work it and love it, and everyone else will too.
    • Sexy doesn't equal skinny. Men are attracted to all body types. Curvy women are sexy too.

Remember to be who you are and act yourself. Try to be original and unique in your sexiness, not just a bimbo emulating or trying to be somebody else. Confidence is the key. Sex appeal involves a belief in yourself that you can and will appear sexy. Most public icons or even film stars carry their sexiness in their confidence. Even a simple smile shows confidence and appeal. In fact the starting point to sexiness starts with confidence.
 
Highlight your positive features. If you have pretty blue eyes, then show them off. If you have a beautiful smile, then flash those pearly whites. Touching or licking your lips draws attention and looks really sexy, if they like you, they will immediately think about kissing you. Whatever your positive feature might be, if you feel sexy and confident, then it will show!
