Question: How do I get the best results for my sophomore yearbook picture!?
My school pictures are being taken on September 4th!. Is there anything specific I can do with hair, makeup, clothing, or jewelry to get the best possible picture that I can!? Are there certain colors that are generally bad to wear for these sorts of things!? I always end up hating my school pictures and I want to know what i can do to actually get a good picture!

I have dark hair, light skin, grey eyes!. If that makes a difference!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Here are some suggestions:
Wash you face everynight (but use something that you have used already so you don't risk getting a rash)
Get plenty of sleep the next few days (don't want to look tired)
Drink plenty of water as it helps to hydrate your skin
Make-up should look natural don't over do it!. Light concealer, earthy tones are your best bet!. (No red lipstick or dark purple/blue eyeshadow)
Deep condition your hair so it hydrated (don't use a lot of hairspary or gel that would make your hair look crunchy or dried out)
Bring a bag with you that has make-up for touch up, toothbrush and toothpaste (in the event you have something on your teeth), hairspray, mirror and brush so you can fix yourself right before pictures!. You may want to get a serum that you can put on your hair when it's dry to tame the fly aways!. If you have curly hair or want to make your hair curly for the day try the curler ( I think John Frieda makes it) helps to boost the curls!.
As for jewelry don't over do it, even hollywood stars get hammered for over doing jewerly!. If you are wearing a necklace make sure that your shirt will allow the whole piece to be seen!. Fake diamond earrings are very classy if you decide to wear your hair up!.
As for clothing don't wear something that is flashy, prints, too bright or needs to be fixed like a button down shirt!. A v-neck is a safe way to go!.

If you plan to smile brush your teeth with baking soda or use the crest whiting strips even for the next two days can brighten your teeth!

also tame the eyebrows but don't get them wax as it may leave red irritation instead get them threaded or if you know how to tweeze but don't over do it! lol

Good luck and say cheese!Www@QuestionHome@Com

pick a background and wear clothes that make your eyes pop
make sure your clothes aren't too distracting- you want the focus to be on your face
make sure to wear natural make up- nothing over the top that you wouldn't normally do
also, ask to see the picture you took if they let you!. if you don't like it, ask to take another oneWww@QuestionHome@Com

dont go overboard with your makeup and hair! you wont look like yourself if you do!.
and go look in the mirror right now and smile!.
then do the same thign again but think of somethign really funny before you smile!. you'll see a difference!. the first one will look fake, so when the photographer says "1,2,3!.!.!." think of how your friend tripped down the middle of the hallway, or soemthign funny and it should turn out great!Www@QuestionHome@Com

well, i dont know if this is the same for you, but my pix are taken on the day of regestration!.!.!.but i suspect that u are already in school by now!.!.!.ok, well if u can get an early pix time!.!.like during first period!. that way u can look the same as u do when u leave the house!. wear a solid shirt, because lots of print makes it look strange!. wear a shirt that covers the shoalders because u will look naked if they only take from the neck up!. wearing a black shirt might be smart, because whatever the backround color is that they use it will match!.!.and dont wear white!.!.sometimes a white shirt will bounce off the camera and look like ur face is smeared!.!.best of luck <:~)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Since you have dark hair and light skin, i recommend a warm colored shirt, like pink or a orange to bring out your face and hair!. The red will warm your skin up and will show off your hair!. Make sure that it is not too intense, or else the focus will be on your shirt!. Put in some earrings, but keep it simple!.
