Get body Confident
We all have days when we don't feel too hot. Whether we've got a spot on our nose or our hair's looking a bit dodgy, we all have our own pet hate when it comes to our looks.
Take a look at some of the ways you can bounce back if you're having a bad body image day.
Top it off
Bad hair days are a fact of life. Even supermodels and the hottest celebs have hairdos like haystacks when they get up in a morning.
Wash and go
For some hair types, washing your hair too often can make it harder to style. Try and leave it for a few days until your hair's natural oils kick in and make it easier to manage.
Grease is the word
If your hair's the type to go greasy pretty quickly, try and avoid putting product in it and only get it wet when you're intending to wash it.
If the cap fits
If your hair's really not going your way, try and accessorise with hats and caps. Most people forget about hats, but they're not only very much in fashion, but they make you stand out too!
Face facts
See those celebs on the cover of magazines with their perfect skin and gleaming smile? Very few people in the world look that good without a bit- or a lot- of help.
Picture perfect
Photos can be manipulated digitally to iron out any wonky noses or freckles so if you fancy looking like that, you're better off taking a photo of yourself, doing some computer wizardry and plonking the photo on your face. Stars have their rough days too; they're only human.
Spot on
If your skin's not playing ball and you're having an attack of the dreaded spots, just make sure you wash your face and moisturise, using gentle products that won't irritate your skin further. Your doctor or a pharmacist might be able to help.
For a quick fix, think about using a hypo-allergenic subtle concealer or foundation This isn't just one for the girls; there's nothing wrong with a guy taking advantage of a cover-up.
Body blues
Ninety nine per cent of us think are body's below par when it comes to the way it looks, but why? Sure, some celebs look great in magazines but they have loads of money at their disposal and don't forget that little bit of camera trickery.
I am what I am
The best thing to do if you don't have a Hollywood bod is to learn to love the one you've got. Your pet hate, be it lumps and bumps or skinny legs, is what makes you the person you are.
So your feet are pretty big, so what? Shop around and you can find the right shoe to suit you. So your bum's more of a peach than pea-sized, big deal!
Shop around
Don't be afraid to go into shops and ask the advice of an assistant on what clothes will suit you. They'll like nothing better than to be asked their opinion on clothes and you shouldn't be paranoid about asking them; they're not going to waste a sale by mocking the knobbliness of you knees.
Think yourself up
They key to being body confident is to go easy on yourself; stop beating yourself up over your bad bits and focus on what's great about you.
Maybe you've got nice eyes, a cool smile or great hair. Use your best feature to the max, learn to love your body and you'll send out such a positive vibe that nobody will notice that zit on your chin!
