19 People’s Amazing Glow-Ups That Can Leave You Stunned
Like a butterfly taking its first flight.
We have moments as emo-teens that we want to erase from our memory at times completely. Some call them blundered years when we were disillusioned by dyeing our hair black or red.
Some kids feel insecure about their appearance as kids, whether because of their face or body. Like an ugly duckling, a sore thumb that pokes out, they don’t think they’ll have the same feelings as those born with good looks.
Hey, guess what? Hormone fixed it all for some of them. Their glow-up pictures are absolutely breathtaking. Others put in extra effort, such as by taking up makeup skills and working out. You can have the beauty that you wish for if you treat yourself right.
