Shower every night or morning. Use a fresh clean scented body wash and not anything too musky or overpowering. Make sure to wash your hair thoroughly and use a lightweight shampoo that best suits your hair type. Condition 3-4 times a week so your hair does not get oily. Afterwards, brush your hair with a wide tooth comb so you don't split your hair. Avoid using a lot of products in your hair. It can make your hair look greasy and even oily. [1] X Research source -
Wash your face and neck with a facial cleanser. Make sure it's right for your skin type and that you're not allergic to anything in it. [2] X Research sourceAdvertisement -
After showering, use a good body lotion that fits your skin type. Avoid anything scented because it usually irritates the skin. Use a facial moisturizer for your face. I stress this so much because body lotion is so much greasier than facial lotion. Facial lotion could prevent breakouts and oily skin better than body lotion. [3] X Research source -
To look fresh and clean, it's important to groom yourself in that manner. Brush your teeth twice every day with a minty fresh toothpaste. Painting your nails is another way to express yourself! Think outside the box when you choose your color! Hair should either be tied up and hanging with bangs,or you can leave it open with layers. For a preppy clean look use a bow to tie your hair. It also gives any outfit a clean finish. -
Makeup should never be caked on. Bare Minerals or any other mineral cover up is perfect for a fresh faced look, but don't cover your whole face, only the parts where you have any blemishes or dark circles. A little brown eyeliner and light mascara is enough makeup. If you must use a little blush on the cheeks, it is up to you. -
Clothing should be clean cut and never dirty. Colors are usually pastel and light. Jeans and a pretty top with cute ballet flats are perfect for a clean look. If there are any certain colours which match your personality and skin type, while not colliding with the school rules, go for it! -
Use a body mist in a clean scent. Only use a little perfume,otherwise it's overpowering for school. -

Tips from our Readers
The advice in this section is based on the lived experiences of wikiHow readers like you. If you have a helpful tip you’d like to share on wikiHow, please submit it in the field below.
- Comb through your hair daily to keep it neat, and have regular self-care routines. Brush teeth after meals, tidy your room weekly for a fresh start, and get good sleep. These habits boost confidence.
- Your sparkling eyes, bright smile and positive attitude matter most! Braces or no braces, you glow when you feel good on the inside. Do what makes you happy and don't worry what people think.
- Use facial moisturizers only on your face! I once had a bad breakout from using body lotion. The skin on your face is far more sensitive and requires specialized care.
