The Model’s Way to Photogenic Smiles

In a world of selfies and instant photo sharing platforms, a picture-perfect smile is your best asset.

photogenic smilesEveryone wants to look good in photos. Some may have difficulty flashing the camera a photogenic smile—you might be one of them. Fortunately, you need not be a professional model to achieve that glowing grin.

Flawlessly Natural Always Works

Scripted smiles do not have any place in your photographs. When it is time for a photo, just smile naturally. Do not overthink the way you should grin. Do so gently and in a relaxed manner. When you pressure yourself to come up with the perfect smile, chances are your smile will look put-on.

A natural smile is the complete opposite of a quick grin. You open your mouth slightly and the curve of your upper teeth matches your lower lip.

Ladies, Lipstick is Your Friend

For the women, lipstick enhances your already beautiful smile. Keep in mind that the right shade of lipstick makes your teeth appear whiter. To find the right one, choose the shade that works best with your skin tone. The wrong one, on the other hand, makes your smile less appealing.

Shades such as red wine, plum, rosy pink, wink or cherry are your best options. If you wish to hide yellow stains in your teeth, use pink-based or blue-based lipsticks.

Mind Your Teeth and Gums

The picture-perfect smile sometimes calls for a little behind-the-scene preparations with the help of the nearest dental practice. From Weybridge Invisalign aligners to whitening, your options are endless.

If your teeth are yellowing with age, in-clinic whitening from your dentist is the best solution. You can also correct your cracked, broken or chipped teeth with some implants or braces. Do not forget your gums as well. Keep them in good shape by maintaining good oral hygiene.
