What’s up virgins, it’s your boy Based Zeus, and today I’m gonna be teaching you
how to be photogenic AS FUCK so you can start raking in the Instagram likes and sliding
into all the instagram models DMs just like me.
And speaking of likes, be sure to smash that like button, if not, I’ll smash your girl,
hashtag Based.
#1 DON’T ... lean back or away from the camera
You know what I’m talking about, when young guys take pictures, they almost immediately
tilt their head backwards and shy away from the camera.
Doing this immediately messes up the structure of your jawline in your pictures and it makes
you look like you have a double chin.
It’s almost an instinct to shy away from the camera and pull your head back, as if
you’re trying to hide from the camera to hide your ugliness but fuck that.
You’re subscribed to this channel so you already know that looks aren’t all that
important if you have solid game and a great personality!
Plus, if you’re ugly, then I have videos on how to get girls if you’re ugly anyway
- which I’ll have linked on the screen right now - so being ugly isn’t an issue for you
anymore..
Instead of leaning away from the camera …
#2 DO … lean your head forward and jut your chin outward.
Now if you’re watching this video and trying it right now like I know you are, you’re
probably thinking no way this shit feels so unnatural and awkward, I’m gonna come out
looking like a giraffe in my pictures.
But trust me, jutting your chin forward in pictures is the EASIEST way to create a sharper
jawline and make your face look a lot more structured in your pictures.
Look at all these pictures, all these guys are looking snacky as fuck because they’re
all jutting their chin outwards and it’s making their jawline look fucking fire.
Leaning it forward creates more separation from your neck so you avoid looking like you
have a double chin and it makes your facial structure more pronounced.
You’re welcome.
#3 DO … use your tongue to make your jawline look stronger.
Sounds crazy right?
But if you force your tongue up to the roof of your mouth and breathe through your nose,
you’ll feel your jawline tighten up and look a lot more defined and structured.
Try it now in front of the mirror and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
You’re welcome.
#4 DO … make your skin look smoother.
Oh fuck wait I just said two Do’s in a row, instead of a Don’t.
Fuck it, I’m only doing one take.
You can have all the photography knowledge in the world but if your skin is rough and
bumpy and you have red spots all over, it’s gonna show up in your photos and ruin your
entire look.
Plus, a lot of Instagram filters actually make bad skin look even worse because they
increase the Contrast on the photo which brings out any discrepancies like that.
If you want to make sure your face is on point and looking dope, I recommend you check out
Tiege Hanley, who I got to sponsor today’s video.
If you wanna have your best face possible, then use Tiege Hanley, it’s simple.
Tiege takes all the guesswork and complicated shit out of taking care of your skin, it’s
uncomplicated skin care for men, and the price is ridiculous!
When you get your package it comes with instructions on exactly how much and when to use each product.
They have 3 different levels, their level 1 kit comes with a face wash, an exfoliating
scrub to keep your face glowing, and an AM and PM moisturizer for morning and night.
If you wanna step it up then level 2 comes with an anti-aging eye cream which gets rid
of puffiness and dark circles from under your eyes.
Your eyes are a huge aspect of looking good in pictures and Tiege’s eye cream has caffeine
in it to make the skin around your eyes firmer and make sure you’re as awake as your morning
coffee makes you feel because if your eyes look tired and all fucked up, then your whole
face will be off.
And if your whole face is off then Tiege hooks it up with their level 3 system which also
includes the eye cream AND an anti aging firming super serum that’s packed with vitamins
and antioxidants to tighten up your face and make it look soft and as Alpha would say,
DYNAMITE.
And the best part, if you rub Tiege Hanley on your photos, you’ll look more photogenic!
I’ll have a link and discount code in the description for you guys to check out.
#5 DON’T … do basic ass poses.
Yeah I’m looking at you, teenage boys.
Wait what?
no no, not like that!
Not in a creepy way with Chris Hansen about to emerge.
You know when guys take pictures together and they all do that stupid pose with their
hands in front?
Yeah please, for Zeus’s sake don’t do that.
It makes your picture indistinguishable from all the other basic dudes posing like that
on Instagram AND it doesn’t even make you look your best because it hides your posture
and makes you look like a clone next to all the other people you’re standing next to.
Instead go for tip #5.
#6 DO … figure out what poses work best for you.
Now I’m into photography and I’ve noticed that most of the time when I photograph people
that they look best when looking directly into the camera as opposed to away from it,
but looking away from it is a good option as well.
It’s just about experimenting with a bunch of different pictures and poses and seeing
what works best for you.
Get yourself a little tripod and use the timer on your camera to take some pictures of yourself
in a bunch of different poses.
Then look at em and see which ones you look good in and which ones you don’t look good
in.
That way, next time you’re with friends and you guys are taking pics, it removes all
the guesswork because you already KNOW your best poses and you can jump right into em.
Trust me, literally EVERY hot girl or guy on Instagram knows exactly what their best
angles are.
#7 DON’T … Take pictures with shitty lighting.
Lighting is also important.
You don’t want the light below you because it makes your face look fucked up.
And if you’re posing with your shirt off, you want the light right above you and slightly
in front, because it highlights your body and makes you look a lot more defined.
I’m not exaggerating when I say you can look like you just dropped 10% body fat just
by altering the lighting in your pictures.
Play around with it and figure out what works best for you.
And that’s it.
