Enjoy a Night Out with Friends

As silly as it sounds, your best friend may be one of your best assets. In a survey conducted by Tupperware, 85% of respondents—women ages 18 and older—said that in the long run, a supportive network of female friends was more likely to boost body confidence than having an attractive appearance.

“Being social means people have the opportunity to find out who you are and like who you are,” says Sokol. “And positive feedback grows positive views of ourselves.
