Trust me, they are not as perfect as they seem. I bet you at least one of them has an eating disorder or something like that. Plus just because your popular, doesn't mean everyone likes you . . . it just means they know who you are. Maybe these girls are popular because a lot of people know them, and don't like them. I was never popular at my school and I never wanted to be because being popular meant changing yourself to please other people and giving in to peer pressure. As long as you know who you are and have a group of friends that like you for YOU (not the way you look), then you shouldn't be jealous. In fact, those girls should be jealous of you!
What always makes me feel better is renting a movie where the main character is unpopular but is protrayed as the good guy (and there are a lot of them out there). If you haven't already seen Mean Girls, I would definitely suggest that or Princess Diaries. Hope this helps!
