7 Ways to Look Better in Photos

Never untag a picture again! Makeup guru and celeb photographer Davis Factor gives his camera-ready Dos & Don’ts.

Apply Makeup

1. "Do apply makeup in the lighting you'll be photographed in so it's not too heavy," says Factor. "For natural light, avoid sparkle. It accentuates fine lines and ages you."

Use a Concealer

2. "Do use a light-reflecting concealer to combat undereye shadows," he says. We like Simply Vera Vera Wang Illuminating Concealer ($19.50, kohls.com).

Blush

3. "Don't wear too much blush," and blend it in really well.

Anti-Shine

4. "Do use an anti-shine product to keep skin matte. Oily skin gets shinier thanks to the flash." Try Smashbox Anti-Shine ($27, smashbox.com).

Cheat the Camera

5. "Do cheat the camera." Stand sideways, cross your legs to slim the body, and twist your shoulders to face the photographer. "Definitely don't stand dead-on," he advises.

Don't Chew Gum

6. "Don't chew gum." You'll get snapped mid-chomp. "It happens often!" says Factor.
