by Angie Leighsmith

<div align=justify>You fulfilled a lifelong dream of yours. You finally did it. You made the cheerleading squad! Now you need to start practicing all of the routines and memorizing the cheers. Relax, that will come with time. For now though, you can start getting yourself ready for the squad by studying up on some beauty tips. As a cheerleader, you’ll be expected to look your best. You’re representing yourself, your squad, and your school. Needless to say, your appearance is extremely important. Now, not only will you need to worry about your everyday makeup, hair and overall appearance routine, you now have to worry about your beauty regime for cheerleading. Here are some tips to help you keep that fresh makeup look even while performing those physically demanding flips. 
<UL> 
<LI>Smile. Nothing screams enthusiasm as a great big smile. It’s a great asset and one that all cheerleaders are known for having. 
<LI>As the old saying goes, “keep it simple, stupid.” Less is usually better with all of your makeup products. Don't go crazy on using beauty products. It’s your inner beauty that you want to stand out and not the outer. 
<LI>Pick a hair style which is attractive and will highlight your best facial features. Remember that you'll be jumping, flipping, running and stunting. Pick a style that will make it easy to get your hair to stay in place. 
<LI>Try not to use too much hair sprays, mousses, and styling gels. You’re going to be active and sweating. Your sweat will make these products run and get in your eyes, nose or mouth. 
<LI>Apply makeup but keep it nice and simple. Let your best features stand out and minimize your flaws. Know what colors look good on you and which don't. Get a makeover done if you get the chance. 
<LI>Read all of the fashion magazines; pay attention to the hair styles and the makeup that celebrities are wearing. Don’t be afraid to take a chance and try some new things and techniques. If you see someone at the mall that has a style you like, ask them about it. 
<LI>Keep your eye makeup as simple as you can. Nothing at is as worse than having your eye makeup running down your face during a big cheer. 
<LI>This sounds pretty obvious but you’d be surprised at how many girls forget to brush their teeth or use a deodorant that works. You can be wearing the most expensive cloths or the best makeup but if you smell bad then no one will care. 
<LI>Pick out a good lipstick or lip color that works with your complexion and coloring. Use a foundation or powder to your lips before applying your lipstick, helping it will it stay in place and last longer. More and more girls are recommending a plain lip gloss or lip shine. 
<LI>Please, oh please, do not wear any strong and overpowering fragrances. Between your shampoo, hair spray, perfume and lip gloss you could possibly have on a stinky mixture that may be obnoxious for your cheermates. </LI></UL></div>
