In order to be taken serious as an underwear model you have to give your body the right care it needs. With every image released from a photo shoot the models look perfect. People do not realize the time and effort it takes to keep your body in shape. There is the unspeakable word in photography called Photoshop. The best photographers don’t use it to make features better; they do it to enhance the scene. The best underwear models have amazing features and own their look. No matter what their appearance, they always need to look photo shoot and runway ready. These tips on how to take care of your body will help get you ready as an underwear model, without the use of Photoshop.

Skin:

Your skin complexion and health is vital to being a good model. There are many ways to maintain a clear complexion. Some might feel over whelmed with the commercials and store aisles of products, but do your research. Visit a qualified and certified dermatologist in your area to learn about the products that will work best for your skin type, how to exfoliate, and how to wash pollution away. Now there are different conditions to everyone’s skin, so it is always best to consult with a dermatologist. It never hurts to be on the safe side. Your skin is very delicate. Don’t forget to treat yourself every once and awhile.

Tanning/Waxing:

It is becoming increasingly popular for men to go to salons for tanning and waxing services. This is a great way to be ready for a photo shoot. You need to go at least one day before because your skin will become red from waxing and your tan has time to set. Do not get a tan to where you are an orange mannequin. It is not a good look. When you get a tan/wax make it very subtle. For underwear shoots depending on the shoot, it looks great to have your body smooth from head to toe. While a hot bear and otter is sexy, showcasing a smooth, muscular physique tends to showcase the product and looks more appealing to a broader audience. Remember, you cannot wax after you have been tanned, and you cannot tan after waxing, so plan to do them one day apart.

Fitness:

We are all jealous of perfect model bodies. But these amazing muscles didn’t happen over night. When it comes to working out it is more than a lifestyle; it is a full time job. It is amazing to see the dedication and determination of the workout regimens of many models. There are different kinds of physique modeling. You have the muscle gods, known as body builders and underwear models. Both are equally hand crafted from marble. When you do hit the gym strategically work your different muscle groups. Invest in a personal trainer to develop both an exercise and nutrition program suitable to you and your goals.  For maximum build switch up your routine and eat healthy.

With these tips you will be well on your way to becoming an underwear model. Once when you feel comfortable and are ready, book a lot of photo shoots involving swimwear and underwear. When you love your body and know then angles that work best for you, it show through in your images. Portray confidence and you will exude the look of high fashion. Most people don’t consider being in your underwear fashion, but make it artistic and make them jealous.
