start in the morning


  1. Freshen up with a tingly lemon shower gel. If you can bear it, switch the water on to cold just before you finish showering for an ultra-invigorating start to your day.
  2. 2
    Wash your hair while in the shower. Take time to massage your scalp with your fingertips. It's a great pick-me-up.
  3. 3
    Eat some breakfast - it really is the most important meal of the day and gives you the energy you need to get going. Try wholewheat toast and a glass of orange juice, or a bowl of unsweetened muesli with a chopped banana and yogurt.
  4. 4
    Try this simple deep-breathing exercise to increase your energy levels. Lie on your back, supporting your head with a cushion, and place your hands on your tummy. Shut your eyes and concentrate on expanding your tummy as you breathe in, and flattening it as you breathe out. Continue for 5 minutes.
  5. 5
    Your body needs lots of fresh air and daylight, so take a brisk 10 minute walk at some point in the day and drink plenty of water to refresh yourself.
  6. 6
    Put on the spritz with a fresh-smelling body spray. It will lift your spirits and make you smell great too.
  7. 7
    Gently pinch your cheeks to give them a red glow that will make you look instantly healthier.
  8. 8
    Lie down and place a cold tea bag over each eye for 5 minutes. There is an ingredient called 'tannin' in tea, which reduces puffiness in your eyes and makes them look brighter.
  9. 9
    Peppermint oil on one's feet, or even just a few whiffs of it, is an excellent refresher.

steps to be perky


  1. Posture is always important. Make sure to always stand up straight and never to slouch. Always be lively and bouncing to avoid standing still too much.
  2. 2
    Smile. Always have a smile plastered to your face, no matter how bad you really feel. Lively and perky people aren't frowning all the time. If you find it hard to smile, don't force it! Just think about something funny or something that makes you happy. Soon enough, you will be smiling and everybody around you will realize just how perky you are.
  3. 3
    Consider becoming a cheerleader or gymnast. In most cases, all cheerleaders and gymnasts are known for their perky personalities.
  4. 4
    Make sure you always get enough sleep. You cannot be perky if you're half asleep or grumpy with bags under your eyes. Remember to maintain a good sleeping habit, and always get at least 8 hours of sleep.
  5. 5
    Exercise. Healthy and fit people are perky people. This is because they are confident and healthy, so are just naturally perky and always act perky.
  6. 6
    Diet. Stick to healthy foods to keep you healthy inside and out. Always remember to eat the right amount and the right types of foods. You cannot act perky on an empty stomach, or a fat belly either.
  7. 7
    Moisturize. In any case, you want to have smooth, shiny and happy skin. If you are perky with dry or peeling skin, this won't have any positive effects and you will certainly not be perky. So always remember to keep your skin happy and have that perky face.
  8. 8
    Attitude. Maintain a perky, confident and happy attitude and you will be known for it.
  9. 9
    Water. Always stay hydrated and drink lots of water. 6 - 8 glasses a day is recommended, and this is extremely good for your skin. This doesn't apply to just being perky, but it does help you to appear perky and feel perky.
  10. 10
    Overall, just relax and have fun! Remember to stay true to who you are and never change yourself for someone.

  • 1
    Wear makeup, especially foundation and brightening eye makeup. Everyone, male or female, benefits from a little concealer under the eyes.
  • 2
    Find makeup colors that look natural with slightly pink and warm accents. Practice taking pictures with a camera flash to make sure you don't look like a ghost.
  • Walk quickly with a slight bounce to your step. Do so in fabulous, open-toed heels.
  • 4
    Respond to everything other people say, even if you paraphrase what they just said back to them. Always act engaged and affirming.
  • 5
    Act tirelessly interested in other people, and downplay your own needs and problems.
  • 6
    Use perky body language. Lean slightly towards people during conversations, and occasionally touch their arms while smiling in agreement. Flick your head back slightly when laughing or chuckling.
  • 7
    Drink espresso. Sing a cheerful song aloud. Constantly smile.
