I'm awful at selfies and taking face pics, mostly because they require a good side which I tend to lack!
What do women prefer/look for in a face pic? A big, flashing smile or a sexy, brooding smoulder?
Any tips for a passable selfie would be greatly appreciated  |

How you smile (or don't) I don't think matters. The only thing that annoys me is when someone sends one wearing sunglasses or holding something in front of their face  |

A smile is good if it’s natural, but lots of us struggle to smile in selfie’s I think, so a natural and relaxed look is good, without sunglasses, tongue out, or fingers stuck up. |

So no stupid faces then?
I don't really like showing my teeth and want to try and avoid filters where I can to make it look natural. I've upload a couple to my public gallery for a limited time if anyone is kind enough to give feedback?  |

Yes. Although I really hate taking them, so I generally don’t |

Prop your camera up and take a video with different poses / angles, then screenshot your favourite one to create the photo. So much easier than trying to find the right angle with an outstretched arm and just have fun with it
A smile is always nice but a natural one

I tend to have a constant frowning face so trying my best to do... not that |

Awww I'm sure they're not but I definitely felt the same but some people want to see face pics so thought I might as well have one in the chamber so to speak |

"Nice smile or genuinely smouldering, rather death staring (which is what a lot turn out like)! Use the timer on your phone or take a video and snip out a still image."
How the fuck do you smoulder?
I feel I need more smouldering in my life |

I gave it a go in one of my pics. It was a first attempt but not sure it suits my personality... |

Set the timer for 5 seconds. In those 5 seconds, pull a funny face then let it settle into a natural state.
You don't have to show your teeth, I don't. Smiling from the eyes is good. I've got several selfies in my public gallery and I don't think any show my teeth, but I do smile on most of them. |

I'll definitely give this a go tomorrow! Although I wonder how many times I'll still have the funny face when the 5 seconds are up  |
