Look in the mirror

See how awesome you really are!

Your thoughts (88)

Go to a mirror. Look into it. What do you see? Pimples? Hair that won’t stay in one place? A complexion you don’t like? Do you think you want to lose weight? Do you feel stupid? Maybe you think you are not even close to perfect.

We want you to stop thinking of all those things. Instead, know that you are beautiful. And here is why.. First thing to remember is that you’re not the only one feeling this way – many girls struggle with self-esteem. Second thing to remember – you have to stop!

Seriously, stop those bad thoughts about yourself right now. We can be our own worst enemies. We judge ourselves way too harshly. We say and think things about ourselves that we would never say or think about our friends…or even our enemies.

We all need a break and should start learning to love ourselves.

The good news? We can start right now.

Take this first step. Look into the mirror again and this time, I want you to see a beautiful girl with a beautiful mind and heart. Guess who? It’s you.

Say it! Three simple words: “I am beautiful.”

Then say it again. Then shout it. Don’t worry if the people in your house are asking if you are okay, keep saying it.

You need to believe it, because it is true.

Beautiful doesn’t mean what you see in a magazine or on television. It is not somebody else's opinion that you are trying to live up to. It isn’t only about what is on the outside. It’s also about what’s on the inside.

Say it again: “I am beautiful!”

Because you are beautiful. You’re not perfect, nobody is. But you can be confident. You can be sure of who you are. You can decide how you feel and react to the world. So it’s in your power, you can build your whole life around three little words: “I am beautiful inside and out!”

And once you know that in your heart, everything gets easier. You don’t have to waste another minute on negative thoughts. Focus your energy on your passions and plan your amazing future!

Hey Lizzy01! We believe every girl is beautiful. However, you can only believe that when you search within and see the beauty in yourself. Being beautiful is not about comparing yourself to others but about appreciating yourself and seeing beyond your flaws. For people to tell you that you are beautiful, then that means that you are indeed very beautiful. Learn to love yourself and you will begin to see how beautiful you really are. We hope this helps

I have try it before and I believe it.all girls are beautiful don't be discourage all say the word 'I AM BEAUTIFUL"

Hey Rocxy! You should do nothing about it. Yes! This is because there is absolutely nothing wrong with having a flat tummy. Keep loving your body and be confident about what you have (your features). You are healthy and perfect the way you are girl. We hope this helps

big sister what do i do i see my mates with flat tummy height and slim hands but my own case is different iam usually shy of going out because iam bigger than my age with all the stretch marks and scars on my body iam forced to cover all part of my body while going out iam even thinking of bleaching my skin what do i do?

Hey grace! The first rule is do not compare yourself to others. The truth is that you are unique and special. No one can ever be like you. Your mates may be slim but that is not the standard. You are to create your own standard girl!. Also, bleaching will not only damage your skin, it will also make you even more conscious of yourself and everyone will notice the difference too. Bleaching will not make you more confident but it will make you more conscious of your skin and also increase the stretch marks. So dear, the best thing you can do is to love your body. Once you do so, people will begin to love it too. We hope this helps

What if you can't see how beautiful you are. You only see the insecurities and how perfect everyone is but you're not. How popular everyone is but you're not. How no guy can ever like you so you don't like yourself. How you have a flat butt and others don't. How people are having relationships but you have never been asked out. How you're not good enough for anyone. How you have an horrible smile. I could on and on there's no beauty in me big sister.

OKAY Gesi now look into yourself and ask what makes you different from others, (Positively not Negatively) Then & Then you will really know you are special. (Think about it).

I'm fat and I have a broken teeth. And I think I have lumps too and it's developing to cancer

Hey Gesi! Thanks for the comment. You are beautiful. Beauty is beyond what you see in the mirror and from this comment, we can already tell that you are a very beautiful. Girl, you need to know that the size of your butt, the shape of your teeth and all are just perfect for your body and you may even look funny if they were different. Let me tell you a secret, do not let society and your peers define what beauty means to you. You are to define beauty and create a standard for it. As regards having a boyfriend, you do not need a have a boyfriend to feel complete if not you will be making a huge mistake. You are just perfect the way you are. Yes, we are allowed to be uncomfortable about some parts of our body sometimes but that should not make us feel less beautiful. Always remember, you are beautiful the way you are and big sister loves you. We hope this helps

Hey gnisseld! Thanks for the comment. Beauty is personal and we are the ones to define the standards of beauty and not society. We are all different and we should not compare ourselves to others. You are unique and special girls and you should always have this at the back of your mind. We hope this helps

Hello Big sis! I know that am beautiful only before these pimples and dark marks came and ruined my beauty. So please big sis help me with some tips to get rid of those scars and dark spots on my face in just weeks. And I'd also like to go natural because I used a cream recommend by a doctor but it seems like it has bleaching effect on my skin and I don't like it cuz I know the side effects. Anyway help me please!

Hey Ilham! Thanks for the comment. The first thing you should note is that you should stop pinching and touching your face. Want to know why? Pinching will open up the pimples which will turn to small wounds and then end up as black spots on the face. For touching, note that our hands carry a lot of germs and dirt because they are exposed to a lot of contact. When you put your hands on your face, you tend to pass these germs to your face and they stay there. Dirt can also cause pimples. You should just generally wash your face regularly, keep your bedsheets and pillowcase clean at all times, eat less oily foods and more vegetables and finally, drink lots of water and get good sleep. For the cream, it's good to know that you are aware of the side effects of bleaching so we advise that you go for something mild. We hope this helps

Hey Springster! Thanks for the comment. You are beautiful, pimples or no pimples! You should not let these pimples define your beauty. You need to look beyond what's on your face and then love and enjoy your face. Sometimes, pimples are for a short time on the face and so we should not let this affect us. You are to define what beauty it and if you say that pimples can also make you beautiful, so be it. Be more confident and learn to love yourself the way you are. We hope this helps

Hey Tayo! For strangers to tell you that you are beautiful, then you are really beautiful because they do not know you and they have nothing to lose by telling you what they think. However, you need to work on yourself... If you do not believe that you are beautiful, then nothing anyone tells you will matter. Pimples do not define beauty in any way. The fact that you have pimples does not make you less beautiful. You need to learn to love yourself. No one is perfect and flawless but if we all keep holding onto our imperfections, we will not achieve anything in life. We hope this helps

Big sister why does one of my nipples look inverted and the other is not

Hey Springster! Thanks for the comment. Even though you have just one body, if you look closely, you will realise that one part of your body is different from the other. One is usually bigger than the other. As regards your nipples, we cannot say what is wrong but we advise that you talk to a trusted adult about this. We hope this helps

Hey Chimaso! Thanks for the comment. It is very hard to lose weight and still maintain the body shape you have. Once you lose weight, you will definitely lose your existing shape. You will have to choose between losing weight and maintaining your body structure. We hope this helps

Hey Bjoe! Thanks for the comment. This is a personal decision and it is up to you to make. However, before you post anything on social media, you need to be sure that you will be comfortable with that thing when it is brought up in 10 - 15 years time. We hope this helps

Hey Ryan! Thanks for the comment. Virginity cannot be known by physical looks. Being slim or fat has nothing to do with being a virgin. If you have had sex before, you are obviously no longer a virgin. Also, masturbation or even rigorous exercises can make one lose her virginity. We hope this helps
