1.forget everything you know about glow-ups you are over complicating it by thinking you need more makeup more clothes and more friends these are the four biggest tips that I use every single day that will make you and increase your attractiveness 10fold trust me I did not come out of the womb looking like this okay i used to have no aura no confidence and no style but once I finally mastered the glow-up game that is when I truly unlocked my highest potential and beauty and if you stick around till the end of this video I know you can too the first tip that is going to make you 10 times more attractive is to practice your smile and show it often your smile is the best part about your face but so many people overlook this this has nothing to do with being attractive by the way physically you may be a 10 out of 10 but having a sad depressing face docks you like three points according to research smiling can enhance perceived attractiveness signaling confidence and health which are all widely considered attractive there is also a psychological benefit of smiling studies have also shown that smiling actually increases mood hormones while hormones like cortisol and adrenaline so because you typically smile when you're happy the muscles in your face actually trigger your brain to produce more endorphins and this is why when you smile you actually feel happier so take some time to actually practice your smile it sounds stupid but I promise it makes a world of a difference especially if you don't think you're photogenic which used to be me it's probably because you just don't like your smile so every morning I want you to look in the mirror and practice your most authentic comfortable smile and if you're having a lot of trouble doing this I just like to close my eyes and visualize a really happy memory and if nothing is making me smile yet I'll just think of something really funny like a meme or a video and then naturally I'll just start to smile and it's really important to not only use your mouth but your eyes as well because if you only smile with your mouth you're just going to look dead inside and then the whole thing's pointless and of course when you first start doing this you're going to think you look really fake but I promise the more you practice the more natural it becomes your smile is your secret weapon and not enough people utilize theirs but I'm telling you when I started smiling more my confidence skyrocketed i started to get tons of compliments people approached me more and most I just felt a lot happier it is something so simple but has the biggest impact so don't forget to smile my next glow-up tip is going to hurt a little bit but I don't really care because I'm not here to save your feelings okay i'm here to tell you the truth leave the sweats at home the loungewear epidemic has got to stop i think it got really bad after the pandemic because we were basically stuck at home for like 2 years and everybody forgot what it was like to wear real pants but as a result we have totally neglected the way we present ourselves to the world and if your first response to that is "Well why should I care about how I look i can wear whatever I want." Then this doesn't apply to you but I'm trying to tell you how to look more attractive and wearing sweatpants in public is not going to do that i'm sorry i would love to tell you that people don't judge you based on your physical appearance but unfortunately they do making instant assumptions about other people is an ingrained mechanism in our brain as humans we can't help it and so if you think that nobody's going to treat you different based on how you look you're wrong there is also just a different energy when you wear sweatpants it's very passive and kind of lazy and unfortunately people will start to assume that you just don't take care of yourself which obviously I know you do so let's just stop with the sweatpants when you actually put in effort and wear things that compliment your body again your perceived attractiveness increases by like 50% it will physically and mentally make you more confident and psychologically you will actually feel more energized now I'm not saying you have to dress to the nines just to go to the grocery store but if you want to be more attractive then stay away from lazy choices like sweatpants and actually put a little bit more effort into how you present yourself i could go on and on about style and how to physically be more confident but I have tons more videos just like this in the air academy it's an exclusive community of like-minded women who are committed to becoming the dream versions of themselves so if you're tired of feeling like you're not living up to your highest potential then I would love to talk to you oneon-one you can join using the link in the description this next tip is actually one that I think has the biggest impact on your overall appearance and your health is to cut out the sugar it is what's causing your bloating your acne your digestive issues and your energy crashes sugar is poison y'all the science behind sugar is that when you consume it it causes rapid spikes and crashes in your blood glucose levels increasing your risk of insulin resistance and when your body is unable to produce insulin glucose starts to build up in your bloodstream and over time this can cause organ failure yeah sugar is also just empty calories with absolutely zero nutritional value but it increases appetite and cravings leading to things like weight gain and higher fat storage especially in your stomach area and if it wasn't bad enough sugar is also a major cause of skin problems it causes aging by breaking down collagen increases inflammation and makes acne worse and these aren't even all the negative effects of sugar by the way what is most important though and what I want you to remember is that almost every single processed food on the shelves contains sugar because these mega food corporations know how addicting it is and they want to sell more product sugar triggers the same reward pathways in the brain as hard drugs like your brain does not know the difference between a Snickers bar and crack so this is why it is so important to stop consuming processed sugar so that you can have more stable energy levels clear skin and better weight management and there are so many natural and healthier alternatives to sugar that I use almost on a daily basis like maple syrup honey dates agave stevia and just plain fruit like after lunch or dinner instead of grabbing candy or ice cream I will just have a piece of fruit or if I wanted to bake like a sweet treat I'll just replace the sugar in the recipe with something like maple syrup or bananas and rather than drinking soda or juice I'll just drink plain water or sometimes I'll have electrolytes that have zero sugar i know it can be really hard to adjust what you eat but instead of seeing it as cutting something out just focus on adding different things in there is nothing wrong with having a sweet tooth what matters is finding healthier alternatives that will make you feel good on the inside and the outside all right now this is probably one of the most effective tips that I have to become more attractive and that is to swap entertainment with learning in my opinion the most underrated part of beauty is intelligence because the smarter you are the more attractive you are they did studies on this too okay in evolutionary psychology it has been long accepted that being intelligent actually increases one's attractiveness to people of the opposite sex your brain is your most powerful asset there is nothing more attractive than talking to someone who knows how to hold a conversation and inversely there is nothing uglier than talking to someone who speaks in slang doesn't know how to spell and is mentally inept but unfortunately the amount of people in the second category is increasing because of social media and internet brain rot we are no longer reading books watching documentaries or even having face-to-face conversations and as a result we are literally losing our intelligence and ability to communicate so this is your sign to stop scrolling and start learning now I'm not saying you have to lock yourself in your room and study all day but what I am saying is to swap meaningless entertainment with something more substantial that will actually benefit you it could be listening to a podcast while driving to work or watching a documentary instead of just another Netflix show or reading about a topic that actually interests you the whole goal is to become more interesting to yourself and to others now if the first thing you're thinking is I don't have time to learn every day i'm already so busy well then I have good news for you you don't need to carve out hours every day just to learn but rather you can seamlessly incorporate it into your daily routine i like to do this thing called habit stacking which is essentially just attaching new habits to ones you already do so if I already spend an hour on the treadmill I'll walk and listen to a podcast when I eat my breakfast in the morning I'll watch a YouTube video about something I want to learn and if I really want to scroll on TikTok in bed I'll just watch topics that actually interest me like personal development you see the problem was never being too busy it's about making something a priority and when you realize that growing your understanding about the world and people makes you more attractive you will become addicted to it and at the same time you will stop attracting other people who aren't on the same level as you it's a win-win remember that a glow-up is not just a physical transformation it is a holistic evolution to become the most elevated version of yourself an ITG girl is never defined by just her looks but by her confidence growth mindset and magnetic energy so if you're ready to step into the best version of yourself then I would love for you to join the Icirl Academy and connect with other women who will motivate and support you as always thanks so much for watching and I'll see you next time bye
