The eyes
Often cited as the windows to the soul, the eyes is the number one feature daters notice first! How do you improve it?

If you’re a guy, or if you are not big on make up, try these tips that always makes the eyes look great: Get enough sleep. Red around the eyes is not very attractive. Get your eyebrows shaped. The eyebrows are often overlooked, but if shaped properly can add a whole new dimension to your eyes. Look directly at the person you are talking with. It shows you’re confident, and that you are interested in them as person.

Smile
You can tell how open and loving a person is by his or her smile. Improving this is as easy as taking care of your lips. Keep them out of the sun, or protected, and be real when you smile. Remember the instant turn off, a fake smile.

Hair

If you don’t feel confident about your hair, take a trip to the salon and find a style you really like. This is one area where it may be worth the extra money to get something really great!

Figure

Mouth
