Hi lovelies,
Nowadays, influencers play much of the roles that models used to. Aside from partnering with brands to show them off in the best life, there is also pressure to play a certain idealized version of reality and it can be quite daunting to do that. If you feel like your self-confidence is a little shaken or that you don’t have what it takes, what can you do to fight that?
Show yourself a little care
If you want to feel truly confident and at ease with yourself and your place as an influencer, then you should first make sure that you show yourself a little love and take care of yourself. If you have problems with self-esteem, even little steps like taking care of your skin every day can be a great help. If you have trouble getting out of your shell, then it can help to do something spontaneous and active. Dancing is a great tool for this. You don’t have to be a good dancer, either, by any means.
Work to be your best you
You have to know what you’re in the business of selling. If you’re selling yourself and your beauty through photography, then yes, you should work to present yourself at your best. For a lot of women, this might mean tightening up and keeping a certain body weight. So long as you’re doing it healthily, there’s nothing wrong with managing your weight carefully. This doesn’t mean beauty can’t exist at every size, it just means you should know what steps will help you get the body that you’re most confident with.
Getting the body shape that you want
There’s only so much we can do with the bodies that we’ve been given naturally, of course. There are some things you can augment or hack with the right outfit choices, but you’re trying to change your silhouette, then you need practical options. For instance, a lot of women consider breast augmentation to give themselves a more hourglass-like figure. You shouldn’t feel pressured to make any changes that you don’t want. However, if you know what you want, it’s a good idea to identify what steps you can take to achieve them and cosmetic surgery is often more helpful than you might think.
Know how to work the camera
Confidence doesn’t just come from you, intrinsically. It also comes from how you’re able to display yourself to the world and to the online media spheres that you’re a part of. For that reason, if you’re an influencer, you must learn how to pose correctly for pictures. Knowing your angles, how to correct your posture and how to get a great profile shot can help you avoid having to delete half your images because you find one that you’re happy to upload.
If you’re able to naturally get yourself to the place of confidence that you need to conquer the influencer world, then have at it. However, don’t feel bad if you need a little extra help feeling at your most confident, either.
