First of all, nothing can "make" you beautiful if you don't have "beauty" on the inside - if you're warm and confident and generally happy with yourself - that's the first and most important point. Then you have to learn to bring those traits to the outside and learn to interact with people in such a way as to let them know how truly wonderful you are.
Now, it doesn't hurt to learn to work on self-presentation - that's a lot of what fashion and beauty are about - working with what you have to present the best vision of you to the world - let's be honest - it doesn't hurt to accentuate your best features and learn to downplay (not hide, please!) whatever doesn't work as well for you.
For that, you need to know what do do and how to do it, and then develop the confidence to act on it. Finding out what to do has never been easier: there are so many good sources of information that won't do in your self image - like so much of the fashion press can do. Find magazines that don't make you feel inadequate (and that's a personal judgement) but there are some good ones out there - especially the "shopper magazines" - the celebrity focused ones are just helping say "you're not one of them" which I don't feel is good. Then there's television - if you get the Style channel - there are some great shows - "How Do I Look?" and "The Look for Less" are two programmes that work with believably ordinary people and show them what's possible. And then there are books - believe it or not, a good beauty school textbook is a great place to start - since they start with how to assess a client's looks and work with them, not against them - it requires a little courage about self-assessment, but it's worth it.
Lastly, if you have the money, you might consult a good hairstylist to find a look that works for you. Likewise a good makeup artist - and your stylist is likely to recommend one - sometimes the makeup counter people in stores can focus more on their fashion promotions than on your needs. I used to work a counter, and tried not to do that - our company was pretty good that way - but I know that there are pressures, and let's be realistic, OK, girl? And there are really worthwhile fashion consultants/image consultants that can really make a difference in the way you look and approach dressing - that's probably the most expensive option but getting professional advice can be very instructive and really help.
Having said all that, I return to the start - you have to be happy with yourself. If you're a girl, you're beautiful - period. [This assumes you don't have any big medical issues or the legacy of some horrible accidents and even that can be treated these days - and you're still beautiful just because you're a woman - period end of discussion]
Believe in yourself and even though it may sound trite, the old L'Oreal slogan had some truth to it: "Because you're worth it" You are worth it, and if some incomplete chromosome (XY=male) doesn't recognize it, find one who does, or be fabulous on your own! Being yourself and being the best you that you want to be and loving that will keep you happy and in the end will attract the right people to you - friends, potential mates, whatever.
Remember: If you try to be/look like somebody else, you'll always be an incomplete copy - but if you focus on being the best you that you wish to be, you'll be unique and genuine and fabulous!
Go Girl!

first i don't know how old you are,but your looks change as you grow older and learn what works for you to,such as hair,make-up. find a style that is your very own.don't try to look like any body else,embrace the person you are.i've never seen anyone that is not beautiful in their own way.everyone has something that makes them unique.if you are trying to make yourself beautiful for a boy,don't. if that is all that he cares about, then he's not taking the time to really know who you are for just being you. find your best features (eyes,lips,hair,etc)and play that up but most importantly,find out who you are.outward beauty can fade,but if you are beautiful on the inside,you will radiate beauty on the outside. if you have a special talent,(music,art,poetry,sports,etc) and become the best you can be.that will give you confidence. there is nothing more beautiful than a person that is confidant, and comfortable in their own skin. and not trying to be someone they're not.don't listen to what other people say, and don't take it to heart,don't let others try to drag you down.sometimes you see a beautiful person and thats all they have to offer. if they are self centered,mean spirited, the most beatiful person can turn very ugly on the out side,if they are ugly on the inside. be proud of who you are,you were put here for a reason, and you are a child of God,and He dosen't make mistakes. you are a beautiful gift,and i bet you have wonderful qualities. involve yourself in your gifts,and the right person will come along and appreciate beauty that you are.

What do you mean, its about the look of boy????????
All girls are beautiful, its just that those who see them have different ideas of what is beautiful.
What pleases some, is disliked by others.
But learning to apply makeup skillfully, going to a good hairdresser, and watching weight, is a start, but most of all, being happy and positive, and having a genuine liking of other people shows through, and no amount of facial prettiness will work for long if you don't have that.
Good luck.
