Have a date plan that is quite preoccupied, or just want to look and feel beautiful? A drastic change in your appearance or a makeover is a great way to freshen up and get rid of the boredom of your average look. In addition, you will also feel better about how you look. Changing the little things can create a quick makeover to your appearance. However, changing some habits, such as starting to exercise regularly and following a healthy diet, can create an even more drastic makeover.
Step
Method 1 of 6: Finding the Right New Look
Step 1. Pay attention to what you think should be changed
Take a look at yourself and find out what you want to change. What do you like about your appearance? What would you like to change?
Step 2. Find photos of looks you like
You can look online (Pinterest can be a great site/app for this) or in magazines to find photos of people you like. Collect in one folder. Look for certain elements that you like. Maybe you like shoes in one photo and skirts in another. You can crop the two images or save them on your computer.
- Sort photos into categories. You can create categories "makeup", "hairdo", "clothes" and "accessories".
- Find out if there is some kind of theme that is the common thread of the photos you collect. When collecting photos, you usually choose a certain aspect or appearance.
Step 3. Try asking a friend you can trust for opinions
You can invite a friend to talk openly to find out what he thinks about your appearance. Don't make it sound like you're luring him to compliment you, but tell him that you really want to dress better or do your hair better.
If you're asking someone's opinion honestly, don't expect the person to not be honest. Don't get angry or offended if your friend says something you don't like
Step 4. Try to be brave
Your new look can look a little different than what other people expect of you. Try to be bold in trying out new looks. Maybe this look might suit you and you will feel more comfortable with this new look.
If you're afraid to try a bold or wild look, you can try this look at a costume party. Then, after the party is over, you can try the look again and say you love it and want to keep dressing like that
Step 5. Take a photo of your previous look
Take a photo of yourself in your pre-makeover look so you can compare how you looked to how you looked after the makeover.
Method 2 of 6: Changing Makeup
Step 1. Try a new make-up
Buy new eye shadow, lipstick or new mascara. Try different color combinations, but make sure you choose a color that still matches your skin tone. Try a completely new look like punk makeup, pin-up girl style, glamour, or natural. Dare to experiment!
- Choosing a new lip color can also make a big difference and add to your overall glamour.
- Look for makeup tutorials online if you're not sure how to apply a certain makeup.
Step 2. Make a grooming and makeup party
You can invite some friends and ask them to bring their makeup kit. Give each other a facial or apply mud masks to each other and apply makeup to each other too. Try experimenting with different looks using the eye shadow and lipstick your friends have brought with you.
- Try bold looks and styles like those from "The Hunger Games" or other movies.
- Make sure you use a clean, unused make-up brush, cotton swab and cotton swab to prevent bacteria from passing from one makeup to another.
Step 3. Try to go to the makeup counter in the department store
Sometimes there are professional makeup artists at department stores like Matahari who can do your makeup at the counter. This is a great way to test out a new look without buying a ton of makeup products. While it's a good idea to buy something, you usually don't have to pay for this service. You can buy lip color products that you usually use repeatedly throughout the day.
Step 4. Cut and color your nails
Remove the previous nail polish. Then trim, smooth, and rub your nails until they are shiny. Gently push the cuticles with a cuticle pusher. Use hand moisturizer and then color your nails. Choose a color that goes well with your outfit or go for a really bold color.
Step 5. Shape the eyebrows
Find the best eye brow shape for your face and shape your eyebrows to match that shape as closely as possible. For example, a square face goes well with soft, round eyebrows while a round face goes well with tall eyebrows. Make sure you only pluck the hair below the eyebrows and don't pluck too much. Fill in the eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil.
Step 6. Do not use too thick makeup for everyday looks
If you want to do a makeover on your everyday appearance, choose a more natural look. Don't use too thick foundation. You can use a light powder to treat oily skin problems. Choose an eye shadow color that is not too flashy that is more suitable for everyday life.
For events at night, you can make eye makeup more dramatic, especially if your clothes are also dramatic
Method 3 of 6: Changing Hairstyles
Step 1. Find a hairstyle you like
You can find photos of hairdos you like on the internet or by browsing magazines. Don't worry too much about whether the hairstyle suits you or not. Just save the photo. When you have collected the photos, try to look at them one by one to find the common thread. What style constantly catches your eye?
Step 2. Try asking the hairdresser if he has any suggestions for you or not
Bring this hairstyle inspiration to your stylist and try to ask her opinion. He should know what kind of haircut is right for you.
You may have to be patient before you get the look you want, especially if you have short hair and you want to grow it longer. Your stylist can give you a haircut that still looks good when it's extended
Step 3. Color your hair
Try a new hair color. If you have dark hair, try dyeing it a lighter color. If your hair is light, try darkening it. If you dare to experiment, you can try a bold color like purple or blue.
- Highlights can change your appearance. Changes that are not too drastic can refresh your appearance, especially if you are not very happy with your current appearance.
- You can dye your hair with expert help or do it yourself at home. Ask a friend to help you.
Step 4. Install hair extensions
Instantly make hair longer by adding hair extensions. Temporary extensions are available online and can be clipped easily to hair. Try this clip to see how you would look with long hair before adding professional extensions at the salon.
Step 5. Curl or straighten your hair
Changing your appearance doesn't mean you have to cut your hair or color it. You can change your appearance by changing it at home. Use a curling iron to curl your hair or a straightener to straighten your hair. Using these tools takes time so if you want to do it every morning, make sure you make time for it.
Method 4 of 6: Changing Your Dress
Step 1. Take your clothes out of the closet
Bring out all the clothes so you can see what clothes you have. Take photos of the outfit combinations you like so you can dress like them the next day.
Get rid of clothes that no longer fit your body or that you never wear
Step 2. Try swapping clothes with a friend
You could throw a party where everyone has to bring some clothes and accessories to swap. Try inviting some friends and asking them to bring clothes they no longer want. This is a great way to freshen up your wardrobe and have a new mix and match of your friends' dressing styles.
Step 3. Try shopping at a new place
If you're constantly buying the same kinds of clothes, think about where you usually buy clothes. If you always go to the same store, your style of dress will not change. Check out some of the other stores to see other styles of dress.
Step 4. Try not to wear jeans at all for one week
Many people like and often wear jeans. These pants are comfortable and can be matched with just about anything. But these pants can make you look untidy. Try not to wear it at all for one week. Instead, you can wear skirts, summer dresses, or material pants for a more presentable appearance.
Step 5. Find the right bra size
Many women wear the wrong size bra so that the clothes don't fit or look like they should. Go to a department store or underwear store and ask one of the salespeople to measure your bra size. You'll find yourself feeling more comfortable and confident when you wear the right size.
Method 5 of 6: Changing the Accessory Style
Step 1. Put on new or different glasses
If you wear glasses, wear glasses with different frames. Otherwise, buy cheap reading glasses that have the lowest grade lenses. You will also look different and the glasses will not really affect your vision.
Alternatively, you can use contact lenses if you normally wear glasses. Maybe someone else can pangling with you
Step 2. Try wearing a different scarf
Head to a clothing store and pick out a few different scarves that come in different colors, textures and lengths. Try these scarves to see which one you like. Attach the scarf in a variety of different ways. You can try to tie it looser or tighter around your neck.
Step 3. Put on the jewelry
Try wearing new earrings or bracelets to match your outfit. If you're feeling bold, you can try big, flashy pieces of jewelry.
You can easily mix and match if you know what jewelry you have. Try to save it so it's easy to find. You can use a jewelry box or display to hang jewelry. That way you can see it easily
Step 4. Try wearing a hat
Hats can change your appearance instantly and give a classy feel. If you live or travel to the country in winter or fall, try wearing a cute beret or beanie. In hot climates, try wearing a sunhat or a light beret. You can also try wearing a vintage or retro styled hat to match your look.
Method 6 of 6: Changing Habits
Step 1. Exercise regularly
If you want to change your overall appearance, take care of your body too. You can design an exercise program to practice 4 times a week. You can try a Pilates class or ask a personal trainer to help you.
Go for a jog or exercise at the fitness center with friends. You can support each other to continue exercising and improve your health
Step 2. Eat nutrient-rich foods
By providing the nutritional intake needed by the body, you will feel healthier and your appearance will also be more attractive. Try to often eat foods rich in nutrients such as vegetables and fruits. Reduce your intake of carbohydrates and refined sugar.
Step 3. Get enough sleep
Getting plenty of sleep reduces stress levels, which can make you feel and look better. Try to get 7-8 hours of sleep every night.
Step 4. Drink lots of water
Keep your skin looking fresh at all times and make sure your body is well hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. You will feel more energized. You should drink 6-8 glasses of water every day.
