These are the tricks to prepare your face for perfect photos!

Therefore, below we reveal how to become an Instagram model in a few steps!

Nowadays, a good selfie has practically become a necessity. We are not saying that this is a good thing, nor that it is a bad thing, but simply that it is. The world of social networking (if you choose to be in it) dictates its own, sometimes strict, rules, changes them, improves them, and expects you to follow them.

And of course, looking at Instagram, every woman at least once asked herself - are all these people real? How is it possible that they have no flaws, that their faces are smooth and perfectly shiny, that they look neat and perfect? And the answer is simple, it is not possible. What is possible is to take good photos with what nature has given you. You don't need to be perfect for a good photo, but you need to know yourself, your "good angles", to emphasize the parts of your face that you like, and you can already take a very good selfie. Therefore, below we reveal how to become an Instagram model in a few steps!

Ice massage before bed

The night before the planned photo shoot, massage your face with an ice cube. Yes, you read that right! This will have a beneficial effect on your facial skin, closing its pores and reducing puffiness under the eyes. So, use the ice cube to gently massage your face until it melts and let your face soak up the water, then go to sleep. Your face will look fresh the next day, even if you're sleep deprived, which would naturally show in the photo - and it won't! Your face will look radiant and healthy..

Be sure to curl your lashes and then apply mascara

In photos, it is very important to wear mascara, so your eyes will definitely stand out. Before applying a layer of mascara, it is important that your eyelashes are well curled. The trick is to slightly warm the eyelash curler with warm air using a hair dryer before curling. If you curl your lashes with a heated curling iron, they will stay lifted and curled for longer, just like, for example, curling your hair with a curling iron. After a successful flick, apply mascara liberally.

Concealer under the eyes is a must

Concealer is your friend in photos! Basically, when you're gearing up for a little more professional lighting, a little more concealer won't hurt. We recommend a cream concealer that is one shade lighter than yours. You don't need to apply the concealer along the edge of the nose and across the cheeks, but follow the "less is more" rule and use it directly under the eyes and extend the concealer line above the cheekbones - to get an additional visual effect of face lifting. Concealer will help make your eyes pop and your face look fresh. It will also hide dark circles, if they happen to be still visible.

Shade the face and body

Shading your face and body really adds a lot to how you look in photos. Although in everyday life it can sometimes be too visible and may seem unnatural, this is not the case in photos with good lighting. The photo will capture exactly what you need, and that is an accentuated face shape. But you don't have to stop at just the face! You can also lightly shade visible parts of the body, such as shoulders, collarbones or even cleavage. So, feel free to use the contour palette and highlighter and highlight everything you love about yourself.

Lip color lipstick and gloss

If you want a natural makeup-free look in your photos, we recommend that you never skip the lip liner, even if you choose one in the color of your lips. Lips often have a nice shape, but not enough emphasis, so to emphasize them, you simply "enhance" them by framing them with a pencil. You can also use the pencil on the entire lips, then add gloss to them, which will add volume in photos.
