It’s an art to take a beautiful selfie. No matter how beautiful you look in real life, it’s like everything shifts into an alternate reality on your phone screen. Your makeup is blending together, the lighting is off, and the person looking back at you in the photos is making a completely different face to the one you made when the shutter button was pressed.
We’ve definitely been guilty of snapping 50+ selfies at a time, trying to find at least one we’re happy with, but the process is frustrating at best. So how about we cut it down to five photos — or even just one? These beauty products can help you improve your selfie game and make it a success from the first shot!
This clip-on ring light
While we wish we could have professional photo studio lighting for every selfie, it’s just not realistic. This mini ring light, however, can be tossed into your purse so you’re ready to use it whenever, wherever. You can simply clip it to your smartphone, adjust the brightness level, and you’ll notice a difference. The best part? The best part? It can be recharged!

This Contour Stick
Taking a selfie with a phone camera can often lead to losing the defining details of your face — maybe your cheekbones don’t pop as much or your nose is catching the light strangely. This is where contouring comes into play. This new contour stick quickly became a favourite. UsIt can really make your features stand apart!
