Why do you feel like this?

You seem to have lost confidence in yourself *hugs*. Only you can decide what you are not happy about, if it really does bother do something to change it - try a new haircut or try wearing a colour you wouldn't usually... Maybe this is just a phase you are going through; thinking that you lack beauty. No amount of make-up will change that if you do not feel good about yourself within.

Aww, *hugs* i think its cos as you grow up your face shape changes and your body etc. I have days like that too, especially if you remember getting lots of attention at some point in your life and then feel like you haven't had much at all this year you assume you were prettier back then, but it probably is just a feeling-like-you-look-bad day. And after all, your face at 15 may have been gorgeous but if at 18/19 it would mean you still looked 15, who wants it?

Yeah, I suppose you are all right, and its a confidence thing. Maybe I am over reacting because I'm not really self conscious or anything, it just gets me down.

Make up can't perform miracles :rolleyes:

Make-up is bad for the skin, especially delicate facial skin. If you are feeling down, do something that you enjoy or just let loose and scream for a bit. =0)

but im determined not to let this get to me.. has the way ur feeling got anything to do with past relationships or lack of? as some of my lack of confidence is to do with that , although that isnt the main reason

don't compensate with makeup-I hate when girls do that.. if you've gotton a bit chubby, then yeah its the weight that you asked in your first post. Give it time, if it still really bothers you then you will always be at a low moral which is very depressing think about surgery. Sometimes staring at yourself can cause your brain to exaggerate problems greatly, that other people just dont see, it sounds stupid but thats what leads to anoerxia etc cba with dictionary sorry. =)
Why do feel like you're less attractive now? Have you put on loads of weight now, or have you got lots of spots, etc due to puberty, as that can happen. I'm just wondering as you haven't given us any reasoning as to why you feel you're less pretty now - without knowing this, I don't think anyone will give you any decent advice.
