Thanks for your query. Firstly, you have to be happy with the way you look, you have to tell yourself that if someone don't like you then that is there problem and not yours. once you are happy and satisfied with your looks and you feel happy about that, what others say about you wouldn't matter to you.
Also, you need to set a limit with your friends what they talk to you about your sister, you need to ignore them if they don't adhere to the limits that you set. If they crosses a limit in relation to their behavior towards your sister then you need to approach appropriate authorities.
