4 Simple Tricks to Look Amazing in your Selfies!
Do a background check. When it comes to close-ups, taking shots in a bright setting can create harsh shadows on your face. Make sure the light is filtered and soft. Stand so the light source is behind you for a flattering glow. Or have your light source slightly higher and at a slight angle to your face for a more sculpted look.
Go for the throat. To give your neck a more swan-like look, hold your phone at about waist level and angle it upward toward your face.
Come on strong. Believe it or not fitted clothing works better than unstructured, as it tend to give you shape. Also, bright colors work better than earth tones or neutrals which can tend to make you look washed out.
Although these images are not selfies they illustrate the points.
Master your makeup. Wear mascara for eye definition, but beware of too much blush which can look like bruising. Choose a matte lipstick (blue-based reds make your teeth look whiter) over a gloss so the flash doesn’t reflect the sheen. A good trick is to put a dab of gloss in the very center of each lip, to make them look full.
