How To Be A Sexy, Scintillating, Sensational Date

Would you like to know how to be sexy, sensational, and the date that no one ever forgets? Believe it or not, you do not have to compromise your values or standards today to be a sexy, attractive date. You have three qualities to learn and absorb in this new age and you will be on your way to the social life of your dreams.

In a new century, in what seems like a new world, a new dating consciousness has emerged. It is true that some things never change. People today, as in yesterday, still have a longing to find their love, and still are vulnerable to having an aching broken heart. But who could have imagined relationships that empower to the degree that they can today, and a multitude of choices based on love rather than lack and fear?

What does it mean to be a sexy, sensational date? Here are three qualities that will bring you not only more dates, but the chance to create a relationship that endures throughout all of time--no matter what the century.
You will be sensational AND sexy if you:

*Take responsibility.
The successful single of today knows that if you don't have what you want, you have to take the actions to get it. It isn't enough to sit at home alone and moan about how there isn't anyone out there to meet. There are actually more singles to meet today than ever before in our history, and if you want to find one of them, you have to go out...over and over and over. If you are serious about meeting someone special, you have to raise the volume of the number of people you meet so you can increase your chances of finding The One for you.

*Choose a positive life.
Dating gets a lot easier with the discovery of the power of being a positive person. In the new world of dating, singles don't have to be victims of negative thoughts or negative lives. They can find the help that will assist them in changing their thoughts, actions, and circumstances and they can learn to redirect their focus. They can change habits, friends, and behaviors that will help them achieve what they say they want. With this insight, they will know how to avoid toxic pools that sap their possibilities for happiness.

*Tap into talent.
In this new age of dating, nothing is more attractive than someone who has found and uses his or her talent. Men and women today are drawn to accomplishment and the electric energy that comes from doing what you are good at. Talented people are very sexy.
What does your dating world look like? If you think you are not as sexy and sensational as you want to be, there is hope. Take responsibility, be positive, and find and utilize your talent. Right around the corner from these three qualities is the person who is waiting for you.

In high school, it's hard to always look sensational on a date, especially if you only had 30 minutes between soccer practice and tutoring to get ready for it. But wouldn't it be great if you could? Trust me, it is...


1. It's a date so you've got some work to do. Because he already likes you for who you usually are, so why not show him who you can be? Don't change your personality, but alter your appearance to give him a little spice! 
  • Start with a shower. Wash your hair from root to tip, rinse and then repeat. Condition well, starting at the tops of your ears while working your way down. Leave conditioner in for 3 minutes, while using a loofah and scrumptious-smelling body wash, shaving and/or washing your face with anti-acne wash. Rinse well, in cold water. Dry off.
  • Once you're dry, use a body butter/lotion that matches the scent of your shampoo/conditioner/body wash/face wash, or at least one that compliments the smells. Apply a liberal amount to your legs, elbows, chest and feet.
  • Pick a deodorant that smells fresh and girly, but still works really well. Apply 5-7 even strokes to each armpit, and then let it dry.
  • Brush your teeth with a whitening toothpaste for 2 minutes. Rinse with hot water. Floss, and then use tasty mouthwash for a minute. Rinse with hot water, splashing it around your teeth for 30 seconds.
2. Now that you've groomed yourself and you feel sexy and beautiful, pick out an outfit that makes you glow! Some ideas are:
  • Dark wash skinny jeans, paired with wedge heels, a pastel tank top and a flirty shrug/cropped cardigan. Accessorize with sterling stud earrings and a charm bracelet.
  • A short, strapless, bright colored dress. Not the fabric-y ones, but the ones made of cotton or terry cloth. Wear it with either matching gladiator sandals, or soft ballet flats, and a pretty necklace. If it's cold, cozy up with a Hollister sweatshirt, the thin ones?
  • Shorts, a summer halter, and sandals. A cute anklet and a tribal bracelet pair well. If it's winter, then skinny jeans, moccasins/ballet flats, a halter and an over-sized cardigan look fantastic!
3. Play up the natural look but don't keep it too simple. Try a thin line of charcoal-colored liner on your bottom lash line, champagne-colored eyeshadow and sparkly lip gloss. Or black mascara on your lashes, light-rose lipstick, and a thin layer of dark peach blush. If you usually wear dark eye makeup and cherry lipstick, then tone it down. Lavender-colored eyeshadow, clear mascara, and tinted and shiny lip stain.

4. Your hair is clean and shiny, so if you must straighten it, apply a heat-shield to it, and make sure it's DRY before you set the iron to it. Straighten slowly, from root to tip, running it smoothly down the section of hair you're straightening. Repeat until your full head is straightened. If you prefer a different look then usual, curl it. Don't go for the Hugh, bouncy ringlets, but instead soft, twirling waves. If you like your hair out of your face, don't slap it in the everyday ponytail: pin it up!
  • Take the top half of your hair and swirl it up to the peak of your hair, and Bobbie-pin it down in a small, loose bun. Take the bottom half and twirl it into a roll, then neatly pull that roll up to just under the top roll. Bobbie it down. Spray it with hairspray, and make sure the bobbies remain hidden.
  • Take two sections form each side of your head, and twirl them into twists, meeting at the back of your head. Bobbie them down. Take the hair that is still down, and pull it into a low pony just under your left ear. Part the hair just above the elastic so that there's a gap. Pull the pony through. Decorate with a sparkly clip somewhere in the hairstyle. It takes practice, though!
5.  If you're still insecure, take a look in the mirror and realize, "Dang! I look amazing!" Because odds are, you do! If there's something out of place, fix it quickly, grab your purse and head out for a fantastic date!

Tips

  • Finish the look off with a tasty perfume, at both wrists, one side of your neck.
  • If you have a strong perfume, spritz two puffs of perfume in the air in front of, close your eyes, wait 5 seconds, and then walk through the puffs of perfume.
  • Take a breath mint, or minty gum with you in your purse or pocket. It'll help if you pop one in after dinner or something, and prepare yourself for the kiss! Listerine mouthwash strips are good, too.

Warnings:

  • Don't use harmful bleaching mixtures or makeup that you might be allergic to! You'll have to cancel the date, and that will be such a shame!
  • Never eye other cuties while on your date. It's rude and your man WILL notice!
  • Don't say nasty or rude things on your date unless you know your date doesn't mind.
  • If you know you only have limited time to get ready, DON'T rush. Take your time and just omit a few things that are more for the pampering than the cleanliness.
