One thing you need to do in order to build your self-esteem is to practice proper hygiene. In taking care of yourself, you will come to care for yourself more and more. To take care of yourself, you’ll need to practice proper hygiene. Wash your hair, and your skin regularly. Brush your teeth and your hair. Use deodorant. Wash your hands when needed. This will help you feel good about your body. If you or your family have a hard time paying for personal hygiene items, there are often many resources in the community where you can get them for free. Local churches and organizations will often have services that provide necessities. If they don’t, they may know where to look for help. Take care of your clothes. Wash them when they’re dirty and fold them to keep them from getting wrinkled. Don’t keep clothes that have a lot of holes or are ripped. Try to remove stains from clothing and if they can’t be removed, get rid of the clothes. Wear clothing that fits, not clothes that are too small or way too baggy. If you have problems getting new clothes, you can get clothing for free from many local churches and community outreach centers. Thrift stores will also have clothing that is much cheaper than what you’d pay in normal stores. If you’re worried that all you can find is outdated clothing, try thrift stores in nice towns or nice parts of town. Stores next to big colleges will be your best bet. This will increase your chances of finding clothes which are practically new and certainly nice enough to wear for many years. Teenage years are formative years, and many teens suffer from a deficit of sleep. You may think it's fine to skimp on sleep, but this practice actually has a serious impact on your health. Scientists have found that poor or little sleep is associated with lower rates of optimism and self-esteem.  So if you want an easy way to boost your self-esteem as a teen, shoot to get at least 7 or 8 hours of sleep every night. A big part of feeling good in your own skin is exercising. Extra fat or generally being out of shape can make you feel sluggish, out of breath, or just unpleasant. Exercise will help you feel more energetic and healthier. Anything which gets your heart rate up for at least ten minutes is exercise. Work out by jogging, doing push-ups and crunches, or doing squats. Anything that works for you is perfectly fine... just be consistent and don’t give up! Eating healthy, like exercising, will lead you to feel better in your own skin. Eating a lot of junk food will weigh you down and make you feel sluggish and sick. Eating healthy food will give you more energy and you’ll feel much happier. In feeling better, you’ll be able to feel better about yourself.

summary: Practice proper hygiene. Wear clean, nice clothing. Get enough sleep. Exercise. Eat healthy.

Bathroom policies will vary from school to school, teacher to teacher, and grade to grade. If you do not understand the bathroom policy, ask your teacher or professor to explain the rules and procedures to you. If you can not remember the restroom rules, ask your teacher to remind you of the rules. If you can not comply with any part of the bathroom policy, set up a meeting with your parents, teacher, and principal to discuss the concern and develop a solution you can all agree on.  In elementary, middle, and high school, you may be required to ask for permission to use the restroom. In college and graduate school, most professors will let your come and go from the classroom as you please. When you do get up to use restroom, leave and re-enter the room quietly and discretely. If you are an exchange student, ask your host family, roommate, teacher, or professor to explain the country's cultural norms regarding using the bathroom at school. Before asking to use the bathroom, make sure it is a convenient time for you to ask this question. Ask yourself, “Is it a good time to talk to my teacher and leave the classroom?”  Avoid asking your teacher to use the bathroom when they are in the middle of giving instructions, during the middle of a lecture, or during a lesson. Do ask your teacher to use the restroom during independent work times, when you have finished all of your class work, or after you have completed a test. If it is an emergency, remain calm and ask your teacher immediately. When it comes to asking to use the restroom, each teacher has a different policy. While some teachers prefer the traditional method of raising your hand to ask for permission, other teachers find this practice disrupting. Instead, they insist that their students use a special hand signal.  Raise your hand, wait patiently to be called on, and ask for permission to use the restroom. “May I please go to the restroom, Mr./Mrs/Ms. ____.” Raise your hand with the special signal (perhaps crossed fingers) and patiently wait for a response. If your teacher is fine with you using the bathroom, they may nod their head "yes.” If your teacher would like you to wait, they may shake their head “no” or raise a finger to signal “wait a few minutes, please.” Your teacher may respond in one of three ways: “yes,” “no,” or “not right now.” If you don’t receive the answer you were hoping to hear, you must respect your teacher’s answer. If it is an emergency, tell your teacher it is an emergency and you can't wait to use the restroom.  If your teacher says “yes,” thank them and exit the room. After using the bathroom, return to the room quietly. If your teacher says “no” or “in a minute,” ask again in a little while.

summary: Determine your teacher's restroom policy. Choose an appropriate time to ask if you may use the bathroom. Ask to use the bathroom. Respect your teacher’s answer.

Audrey Hepburn had clear skin, which she took care of routinely. Depending on your tastes, apply a tinted moisturizer or foundation to your skin. Match the shade as closely to your skintone as possible. Take care of your skin: drink plenty of water, always wear sunscreen, and exfoliate your skin every week. Audrey Hepburn's eyes were the focus of her face. First, apply a layer of beige eyeshadow. Then, use a soft brown or black charcoal liner to draw a cat eye to your top and bottom lids. Finish the look with dark grey eyeshadow and a coat of mascara. Blush will give you a glow like Audrey Hepburn's bright complexion. Swirl your brush into the blush palette, blowing off any excess to avoid an overstated color deposit on your cheek. Move the brush up from the apples of your cheeks, blending as you go so the color looks natural. Audrey Hepburn wore pink and red lipstick shades that matched her complexion. Choose a lipstick color that suits you and doesn't overpower the rest of your makeup. For a put-together look, match your lipstick color with your blush.
summary: Apply a tinted moisturizer or foundation. Emphasize your eyes with eyeshadow, charcoal liner, and mascara. Use a powder brush to apply a warm color around the apples of your cheeks. Wear a creamy lipstick that matches your skin tone.
