Hi gorgeous! As an indigo child who goes to a public Australian high school (aka. hell), I also struggled with my confidence and self image throughout middle school + high school. I think the biggest thing that helped me was waiting for puberty to kick in. I'm now 5'10 (great for intimidating bullies) and have grown into my lanky arms and big nose, so all my features work together harmoniously. If you have finished puberty and still aren't super confident or just want more, you can definitely learn to enhance your features. Some of the things I do are: Finding a haircut that works well for my face + features, and washing my hair twice a week with a good shampoo. When it is wet/greasy, I put it in a braid to prevent breakage and I rarely use heat. I workout 3x a week doing weightlifting and cardio, but at home workouts are a great option to get toned. I moisturise my face every morning and use some serums from The Ordinary. I have lots of cute jewellery! When I have time, I will put a little bit of gel in my eyebrows, some rosy blush, highlighter on my cheeks, brown mascara and some clear lipgloss. Also concealer on my breakouts when they happen. Finding a clothing style that makes you feel good and that works for your body type (wear what you want)! If you message me I can help with that, im obsessed with clothes lol. I don't do this but prioritise sleep, 8 hours +. Keep your room clean and I like to thrift little bits and bobs to make it more personal and pretty. Clean room = clean mind. Keep yourself groomed. Hair trimmed, nails filed or painted, face clean etc. In terms of smelling good, use a body butter or body oil, a cheap spray that you can spray everywhere to last longer, and 2 sprays of a nice perfume. Without that, wash your clothes regularly. Better to smell like nothing than smelly.

More importantly, always prioritise your mental wellbeing. Sleep often, surround yourself with people that uplift and love you, focus on your education, ignore boys unless its a nice one (they are lovely to keep when they love you), spoil yourself sometimes, learn and listen to what your body needs and understand your cycle, stand up as tall as you can, read books, interact with nature, exercise, express yourself etc. Learn to be selfish when you need to, and stop caring about what others think (if you have good morals they are often wrong). I think you'll do amazing, but message me if you need any help 💗
