HOW TO LOOK LIKE A SUPER MODEL

Being a model means being comfortable with yourself, loving the way you look, and being happy. Models have a confident mystique about them. Even the most conventionally beautiful models carry themselves with an aura that exudes style, grace, and health. They have a glow in their photos: that glow is confidence. Here's how to get in touch with your own inner model and, who knows, maybe even get discovered.

Be your own makeup artist. Makeup is amazing, and any fashionista knows that. You can transform into so many different looks if you have the necessary tools and skills.

  • Look through fashion magazines and practice the looks you see on yourself and your friends. Then invent your own looks and perfect them.
  • Being able to apply makeup like a pro is a must for an aspiring model. It requires practice, practice, and more practice.


  • Be seen. What does it matter to look gorgeous if the only one that sees it is your family and your teddy bears? Go out dancing with your friends, or dining, or whatever it is you like to do. Have fun and live it out.

     
    Have an aura. How you carry yourself affects how people perceive you more than you think.
     
  • Perk up that chin, throw those shoulders back, and glide through the air as if you just signed a ten million dollar contract.
  • At home, practice carrying books on your head.
  • Move like a dancer. Keep your head back, chin up, and shoulders down and back. Remember that every moment is a potential pose.






  • Be fashionable. This one is a given, but a lot of people don't realize how wrong they look in the clothes they wear. Learn about your body type, height, skin tone and preferences.




  • Discover yourself, and fashion will come to you. Rid yourself of any insecurities, because you can look bad in a Gucci & Manolo shoes if your shoulders are slouching and you have a scared look on your face.
  • You don't have to wear designer clothes, especially if you can't afford them. Just look through fashion magazines, pick your favourites and then find look-a-likes. Remember: clothes don't make you, they complement you.
  • Being fashionable is all about knowing different styles. No one is expecting you to dress like it's fashion week 24/7. Being knowledgeable about which clothes work and which ones don't, which styles are in and which ones aren't, will allow you to turn up the heat, so to speak, when you want to, and tone it down when appropriate.



  • Smile, and do it like you mean it. Models can be happy even though they might look bored or fierce on the runway. They make tons of cash, have lots of beautiful friends, attend the hottest parties, and let's not forget that their job is to walk around in really expensive clothes. So generally, they appear to have good lives.



  • Who cares that you're broke, know no celebrities, and flip burgers for a living? Just make sure you're the happiest burger flipper in your joint! Smile, be merry, and people will notice that.
  • To smile genuinely, you have to be genuinely happy with yourself. Some models are unhappy, some have eating disorders and use unhealthy means to lose weight. Just because they do that, doesn't mean you have to.
  • Don't hide behind your smile all the time. If you are unhappy about something, express your opinion—the key to being a good model is the ability to emote.



  • Make sure every part of your body is as flawless as you can make it. We all have this idea that models are perfect human beings with perfect superpowers, but they're just normal men and women like you and me. Of course, they have been refined, polished, re-invented, and perfected. You can be all of these as well, with proper maintenance.






  • Don't bite your nails and always keep them polished.
  • This doesn't mean you have to always have nail polish on. Just make sure to buff your nails and maintain them.
  • Keep your feet in impeccable conditions at all times (you never know when you will have to take your shoes off and dance on the tables!).
  • Soft elbows and knees are important too!
  • To get softer skin, try to exfoliate your skin at least twice a week with something simple like white sugar and lemon juice mixed together.
  • Keep those pearly whites pearly white! Use whitening strips if you need to, and stay far away from cigarettes and coffee, which will turn them yellow. Always use enamel safe teeth whitening or else your teeth could chip off or become see through and very unhealthy.




  • Get fit. Being healthy is a million times more important than being thin. Check with your doctor to find out your proper weight range and work to get and stay within it.


  • Exercise, eat properly, and respect your body. You are what you eat, so learn to put good food into your body in order to be as healthy as you can be. As long as you're in your weight range, you'll look fabulous.
  • Drink plenty of water. Women need about nine cups of water (2.2 liters) on average — at least that's what doctors recommend! Drinking water will help your body process food, will keep you from drinking sugar-water, and will make your body feel full, even when it's not. Drinking green tea (without sugar) is an excellent alternative if you're tired of water. It's mostly water, and it's packed with tons of antioxidants.
  • If you're already happy with your body, then you can still look like a model. You don't have to be thin to look like a model. You don't have to lose weight to look great. Don't want to change? You can still look fab!




    1. Learn about countries with an active fashion scene. Travel the world or watch the Travel Channel. Professional models learn to feel at home in any part of the world, and so must you—or at least you can pretend!
    2.  
    1. 9
    2. Looking like a model doesn't mean you have to cake yourself with makeup. Models don't, so you shouldn't either.

    3. Moisturize every morning.
    • Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler.
    • Use bronzer if it suits you, but don't be afraid to embrace your natural skin colour. Foundation should be light.
    • Eye shadow is nice also but don't overdo it. Eyeliner and mascara are better in brown or similar natural colours. (Check out some young, natural models. They don't cake on their makeup; they're super natural and beautiful!)
    • Makeup should be about enhancing your beauty, not covering it up. Tyra Banks told her girls on America's Next Top Model that as a model you wear natural-looking makeup until you're retired from modelling.





  • Mind your style, top to bottom! There are two things that can make or break your look: your hair and your shoes.


    • Look through magazines and talk with your hair stylist about what would look good with your facial structure. Always keep your hair clean and styled, and make sure you go back to the salon every 2-3 months as your hair grows.
    • Make sure the shade of your hair is vibrant; there's nothing worse than dull hair. If your colour is dull, consider dyeing it. If you don't want to colour your hair, use a shine serum to add a healthy shine.
    • Wear clean, nice shoes. Models wear sneakers too, but they wear them with style.
    • Just make sure your shoes aren't worn out, and that you can walk comfortably in them (a grimace accompanied by a limp from the pain of wearing a torturous pair of shoes is unbecoming). See the Tips section for more advice about shoes.






    Clear skin is absolutely necessary. No zits, pimples, whiteheads, or acne.


    • Use a good face cleanser twice a day. Moisturize after each wash.
    • Have a good toner, spot treatment, and lotion. Use at night.
    • Do face masks and exfoliate once a week. Exfoliating more than once a week is unnecessary.
    • Drink lots of water. This helps your body flush out waste and harmful chemicals.
    • Get enough sleep (this has lots of benefits).
    • Wear concealer on anything you might have.
    • Wash off makeup at night — no doing the "I'm tired, I'll skip washing my face tonight."








    Be confident. You'll never get anywhere if you don't believe in yourself.
    THANK YOU.

    HOW TO BE THAT PERFECT MODEL WHEN YOU GO FOR CASTING CALLS

    How to Fix Your Makeup for Great Looking Photos     


    There are lots of things that can make you look great in photos, such as angles, lighting, the setting, your clothes, and the photographer's skill. But you can also help show yourself off to best advantage by getting the makeup right for photos and it might just be the opposite of what you expect as it's not all about caking it on!

    Steps

    1      


    Avoid using too much makeup. When makeup is overdone, not only is this evident in real life but it also shows up in photographs. The only exception is for stage makeup but given you'd also have a fancy costume, then it would be clear to the viewer that it was for a performance.

    Conceal blemishes using light foundation. Only place this foundation where you think it is needed, such as over pimples or on the sides of your nose, etc. Avoid caking your whole face in it.

    Aim to have a matte face. A shiny face will reflect poorly in the camera and you won't look your best. To avoid too shiny a face, use matte-formula makeup to cover blemishes. For your eye area, use a creamy concealer with reflective qualities.#*Avoid any foundation or other makeup containing titanium dioxide if flash photography is likely (it is a commonly used sunscreen in makeup). The shielding effect of the titanium dioxide on your face will make your face appear washed out and mask-like.[1]

    Highlight your best features. Place blush on the apple part of your cheeks and some glossy lipstick to highlight lips. If you want longer lashes, consider adding false ones.#*Avoid too much contouring; this can result in a washed-out look.[2] Be sure to balance the look though - either eyes or lips should be the focus, not both.Blush should be contoured to ensure skeletal detail is brought out in the photo.[3]

    Lengthen your lashes. Lashes tend to look a little bare and sparse on the camera. Give yourself an advantage by using the mascara wand to apply mascara. Comb out your lashes with the mascara wand with a wiggling motion. Open your mouth and apply the mascara in a windshield wiping motion for length. Make sure your lashes aren't clumped and spidery, the camera picks up every detail.

    Choose colors that look best in photos. Avoid pastels as these will wash you out. Colors the camera loves in makeup include reds, charcoal,emerald greens, golds and chocolate brown. Beige, tans and dusty shades do show up on the camera well. [4] Anything that is rich and deep in color should look good in a photo.

    Exfoliate your lips. Unless you have the best editing team in the world, there is no way you can touch up chapped cracked lips in a photo. Warm your lips up with a washrag and apply any type of oil to your lips and buff away with a washcloth. Apply a nice layer of chap-stick to your lips to give them the dazzle they need.

    Highlight for the camera. To add life to your face, swipe a highlight pencil(shimmery not glittery unless you want to look like fairy) under the arch your brow and blend it in with a brush or finger. Highlighting the inner corners of your eyes can help them look brighter and large. Draw a light line down the center of your nose and blend to define it for that shimmering glow.

    Teeth. Swish with hydrogen peroxide, to give your teeth a healthy nice glow. You can also use lemons or baking soda for a all natural teeth whitener if you do not have any around. Remember not to get lipstick on your teeth and stay away from lipsticks that make your teeth look yellow.

    Be sure to check your makeup prior to the shoot. That way you be reassured that it's in good condition or you can quickly touch up anything not quite right. For important events, such as a wedding, a career portfolio, a long-lasting family portrait, etc., seriously consider having professional makeup done. Explain to the makeup artist what the event is so that they can choose a look with you that suits the type of event.

    How to Dress Like a Model

    Tips

    Learn how to walk with high heels.

    Get sun glasses, have quality shiny hair, use lip glosses, use a nice fragrance.

    If you feel that none of the magazine styles are working for you, experiment! Get different clothes and accessories, and see what looks best on YOU. As long as you feel happy and confident about the way you look, you can look better than a model. (And at least you'll look real).

    Remember you can always customize your clothes or get a professional to turn them into something completely different.

    Remember that fashion models (runway and catwalk ones especially) are often in very good shape. NOT skinny. you should exercise and eat right if you really want to look like a model. Being skinny does NOT look good. Being healthy looks good.

    If you know how to sew, you can even make your own dresses or clothes you find in Fashion Magazines.

    Models try different unique styles because of they confidence. They always choose comfortable but eye catching pieces and celebrates their body. You better be thin , if not try to cover it with black if you wanna look like a model. (Do not wear tight things if you are not thin. Wear black loose things, loose pants , high platform heels ext) (Target is not looking chic or elegant we're talking about models kind of wearing now. It's a unique way of express yourself)

    They don't get cold, they wear like its spring in winter. Don't wear a lot of things and look like a pumpkin at winter days. Wear t-shirts instead of bulky grandma sweaters.

    How to Walk Like a Catwalk Model

    Tips                                    


    Step gracefully, not like you're marching.

    Don't move your arms or shoulders too much, and don't move an arm more than you move the other, or it will look like you have only one arm that works.

    Videotape yourself walking, so you can understand what other people are seeing. Also, by keeping a visual record of your walk, you'll be able to trace your progress as you learn how to strut your stuff like a real supermodel would.

    If you should trip, fall, or have any other unfortunate circumstance, recover gracefully. Smile, and keep going as if it never happened. Nothing will demonstrate your confidence like your performance under stressful circumstances.

    And "Smize" like Tyra would say, meaning         SMILE WITH YOUR EYES.

    Keep your posture from "H2T" Head to Toe

    Watch supermodels walk the walk. Visit fashion shows and watch them on TV. Who were the models that stood out the most? What made them unique? How was her walk different from the others'? Learn from the best so that you don't have to reinvent the wheel.

    You may trip. Catch yourself and brush it off.

    Don't exaggerate by opening your eyes too much or lifting your legs too high while walking.
