Have you ever heard of the saying that goes something like, ‘first impressions matter’? On dating apps, the first impression is often based on your physical appearance, specifically your selfie or profile photos.
To attract the right sugar daddy, your selfies contribute to their decision to make you their sugar baby. If you wish to make them instantly fall to their knees, you’ll have to take attractive selfies that highlight your features and personality. Your photo is your first impression after all – make every selfie count, especially on luxury dating apps like Sugarbook.
Let’s dive into some of the best tips to take the ultimate selfie and attract your ideal sugar partner:
Tip 1: Find Your Light, Babe
Take advantage of the golden hour by snapping a selfie in the early morning or late afternoon. Natural lighting is always the best option compared to artificial lighting. It highlights every feature of your face, enhancing your overall physical appearance from every angle.
If you use artificial lighting, such as a lamp, it can cast unwanted shadows and make you appear older than your actual age. However, if you don’t have access to natural light, you can consider investing in a ring light as it can minimize shadows and enhance the overall skin tone for a flawless look.
Avoid using flash – it’s a bad idea for selfies because it can enhance your facial flaws even further, such as wrinkles and create unnecessary shadows on your face. We wouldn’t want your eye bags to appear in these selfies, right? Or worse – look older than we actually are!
Tip 2: Pose Like You Mean It
Don’t be afraid to showcase your best angles and strike your best pose. While taking a selfie, experiment with angles until you find one that highlights your sleek cheekbones, sharp jawline, and big eyes. Experiment with your signature look: flirty, sultry, sweet, or playful.
One way to achieve this is to position your chin slightly downward and place your camera slightly above, centred around the eyes. You can also have fun with mirror selfies, but keep an eye on the surroundings and background to ensure they are clean and aesthetically styled. Avoid including awkward hands, stiff posture, or cluttered backgrounds, as they could look off-putting.
If you find yourself awkward and unsure where to place your hands or pose, simply grab a few props, such as a mug and hold it up. Consider using your favourite coffee mug with catchy phrases on it. Practice other poses, such as placing your hands under your chin, or other attractive poses like brushing your hair lightly.
Tip 3: Dress to Impress
Your outfit should showcase your personality and who you are to attract the right match. Whether you’re in an alluring lingerie set, comfortable loungewear, or luxe looks, it should match your vibe and the kind of sugar partner you wish to attract.
Try to be creative and explore various textures, such as fur, lace, silk, and more. For something a little more romantic or seductive, go for lace and silk. Men love their women in gorgeous outfits. It makes a difference for first impressions, too, as it showcases the type of personality you have.
Don’t forget to include fun and attractive accessories such as adorable cat ears, chokers or chains. They would enhance the overall attractiveness of your selfies and showcase how much fun you have with all these accessories.
Tip 4: The Edit, Not the Filter
We all know how common it is for users to get catfished while on dating apps. The rule of thumb is to focus on editing the selfie, rather than using a multitude of filters that completely conceal your true identity.
You can slightly retouch your selfie, but don’t perform a full face swap. Photo editing apps, such as Facetune, Snapseed, and Lightroom, offer subtle, soft touches to your selfies without significantly altering your physical appearance.
Edit and enhance the lighting, tone and skin smoothness. Always remember to keep it authentic without altering your appearance too drastically.
Tip 5: Confidence is the Kink
The best way to make a selfie pop is to have energy + confidence. Own your look with confidence and take stunning selfies that create a goddess-like vibe on screen. When smiling, try to smile with your eyes and let your genuine personality shine.
Take 20 pictures, post one, and curate like a queen you are. Captions? Tease your audience with a little sneak peek, don’t write a whole entire diary entry. To get your sugar daddy’s attention, keep it short, sweet, and straightforward.
Lights, Pose, and Action!

All of these combined will surely have your phone notifications blowing up constantly. Remember to always tell a story through your selfies rather than just simply striking a pose.
