How I did it: It really started from within myself. I had to feel pretty from the inside in order to feel pretty outside.

That took a long time, several visits to a (hypno)therapist.

Eventually, I learned to accept myself as I am, decided that perhaps some help from light make up, nice clothes and cleaned up eyebrows didn't mean that I was ugly, but that I had potential to be even better.

Now I use lipgloss, some eyeshadow and light blush, low highheels....and I love it! Doesn't mean I'm compromising my feminist views. (Which worried me, a lot).

Lessons & tips: Self confidence!

Learn to love yourself...very cliche, but true.

Resources: Make up!
And a hypnotherapist to start the process.

And a little weightloss helped me.
