Do you think you look good today? Best take a selfie to
check.
Is it a good one?
Yes. Fantastic. Post to all social media outlets with
caption ‘just chillin’.
No. Do another.
Is it a good one?
No. Do another.
Is it a good one?
No. Do another.
It must be the light in here. Close one curtain. Put that
nice ambient lamp on.
Ruffle your hair.
Think about how sad you felt that time you saw a dead baby
bird on the pavement and it made you write a blog post about the cruelty of
life.
YES: hold that face.
But now think about how sexy you felt that time you went out
with damp hair and the wind gave you the best blow dry you’ve ever had and when
you stopped to look at the wedding dresses in the wedding dress shop window you
caught a look at your reflection and your head looked FUCKING ACE.
Now add that feeling in. That’s it. Do your SADSEXY face.
Is it a good one?
Wow that’s really not what you were trying to communicate at
all, is it. Do you really look like that? Go to your favourite mirror and do
SADSEXY FACE in it. Looks better in the mirror. Get your camera and take a
photo of your reflection.
Ooh wait - turn the flash off.
Oh and also light a candle and put it in front of the
mirror.
DO NOT GET THE CANDLE IN THE PHOTO THAT’S TOO MUCH. You just
want the mood of the candle. The glow.
Ok. Now take the picture.
Is it a good one?
Hm. It’s ok. It’s quite hazy. Quite arty. Ooh, arty is good.
Or maybe it’s wanky.
Point is even though it’s just a suggestion of your face it’s
VERY natural and VERY effortless.
PERFECT. Post to all social media outlets.
