Kim Hanieph: Looking like a model includes maintaining a healthy body weight, keeping your skin, hair, nails, and teeth looking perfect, and choosing fashionable clothes and shoes every day. Instead of aiming for perfection, aim for good health. Your natural beauty will be more radiant if you take good care of yourself.
2. Introduction
Models have amazing good looks and a
confident presence that draws others to
them. Models may make looking good
seem like a breeze, but looking like a
model requires lots of time and effort.
Looking like a model includes
maintaining a healthy body weight,
keeping your skin, hair, nails, and teeth
looking perfect, and choosing fashionable
clothes and shoes every day. It’s also
important to develop a signature style,
walk, and presence if you want to look
like a model. Keep reading to learn more.
3. Keep in Mind That No
One is Perfect
Models have the benefit of makeup artists, hair stylists and designer clothing
to help them look good. Makeup artists spend hours applying makeup to
models' faces, and sometimes even their bodies, before fashion shows. Instead
of aiming for perfection, aim for good health. Your natural beauty will be more
radiant if you take good care of yourself.
4. Maintain a Healthy Weight
Being healthy is much more
important than being thin. If you
are concerned about your weight,
check with your doctor to find out
your proper weight range. Follow
your doctor’s recommendations to
get to that healthy weight range
and stay within it.
5. Eat Healthy to Maintain
Your Model Body
Models’ diets vary widely and some of them
are not healthy at all, so try not to focus on
eating exactly like some models do. Instead,
focus on making your diet as healthy as
possible. Begin your day with a healthy
breakfast. Eat a variety of foods, especially
fruits and vegetables. To get the nutrients
that you need to be healthy, eat plenty of
fruits and veggies. Choose lean proteins.
Protein is important for good health, but you
should choose proteins that will provide you
with the most health benefits. Choose whole
grains. Steer clear of highly processed foods,
such as white rice, white flour, white pasta
and white bread.
6. Drink Plenty
of Water
Being well-hydrated is not only
important for good health, it will also
help to give your skin a glowing look.
The amount of water that you need
to drink each day is based on how
much you weigh. You should drink
half an ounce to an ounce of water
per pound, every day. If you weigh
160 pounds, you should drink
between 80 and 160 ounces of water
per day.
7. Exercise to Condition
Your Model Body
To stay healthy and look great, you need
to exercise on a regular basis. This
activity should be spread out over the
course of the week, not done all at once.
You should also aim for two strength
training sessions per week to help keep
your body toned. Keep in mind that most
models work out much more than 150
minutes per week to maintain their
stellar physiques. Some male models
work out as much as 15 hours per week.
Victoria's Secret models work out five
times per week to maintain their thin
physiques.
8. Consider Whitening Your Teeth
Models have great smiles, so make sure to brush, floss, and
use mouthwash twice daily to keep your teeth looking
fabulous. If your teeth are not as white as you’d like them to
be, consider whitening at-home treatments like special
toothpastes, gels, and strips to give your teeth a model white
gleam. To keep your teeth healthy and looking great, you
should also get your teeth cleaned and checked by your
dentist at least once per year. You should also go to see your
dentist if your teeth or gums bother you. Follow your
dentist’s recommendations for good dental care.
9. Relax Daily
The life of a model is stressful, so it is important to practice relaxation
techniques to stay balanced. A bit of stress is normal and can even help
motivate you. But too much stress is bad for your health and can even affect the
way you look. Take time for yourself. Meditate, practice yoga or take a bubble
bath. Just make sure that you make a little time for yourself every day.
