A true smile automatically looks better.
2) Subtle make-up
Make-up is of course not for everyone and anyway it looks beautiful even without makeup. However, if you want to put the whole thing on top of it, you can use a slightly covering foundation to make your complexion appear more even and minimize the shine with the help of powder. So you create the best conditions for a flawless portrait photo – without Photoshop.
3) Advantageous clothing
Clothing also plays an important role when it comes to looking better on photos. It is important to choose clothes that flatter your body shape instead of highlighting problem areas. Black clothing makes it visually slimmer and browns and greens emphasize the natural complexion.

In order for that does not happen, it is important to find out which posture has a particularly flattering effect on your body. Lifting one arm off the body can be enough to make your upper arm look a few inches slimmer. An outstretched leg also makes you appear optically slimmer and even bigger.
