Appear More Beautiful to Men

Beauty is, as they say, entirely in the eye of the beholder, so there's no one sure-fire way to please every man visually. But with that said, there are a number of different tactics that you can try in order to make yourself more attractive to them. First, making the most of your personal features is an important first step. From there, you can draw more attention to yourself with your fashion choices. Also, focusing on your body language can help draw them in even further.

Steps

Enhancing Your Personal Appearance

  1. Keep your teeth Have-Clean,-White-Teeth. Brush and floss regularly. Whiten your teeth if they are heavily stained. Make your mouth as appealing as possible so men will be happy to make contact with it![1]
    • Don’t go overboard with whitening, though. Blindingly white teeth aren’t any more impressive than naturally white ones. In fact, some men might find them off-putting.
  2. Cut down on makeup and take care of your skin. This might seem contradictory after the step about lipstick, but be aware that using lots of makeup all the time can damage your skin. Also, more guys than you might think are actually turned off by excessive makeup.[2] Limit your use of blush, concealer, and foundation to special occasions, or quit them entirely. Instead of hiding your skin, improve its health by:[3]
    • Washing your face daily.
    • Moisturize-Your-Face.
    • Applying Apply-Face-Masks-Correctly.
    • Exfoliate-Your-Body-for-Soft-Skin your body.
  3. Shape-Eyebrows your eyebrows’ natural shape. Bear in mind that men unconsciously associate full eyebrows with youth, since eyebrows tend to thin out on their own with age.[4] So resist the temptation to go overboard with plucking or waxing them. Instead of trying to mimic someone else’s features, accentuating your own eyebrows’ natural shape.[3]
    • Rubbing castor oil or sweet almond oil (or both at once) over your eyebrows at night will help them grow back if you overdid the plucking.
  4. Adopt a consistent, healthy diet. Keep in mind that what you eat has a direct impact on your skin’s appearance. At the same time, expect crash diets to have a negative impact over time, which may include sagging, stretch marks, and wrinkles. Instead of adopting temporary diets with the aim of dropping x-amount of pounds, concentrate on eating a steady diet with:[5]
    • Six to eight classes of plain water per day.
    • Five portions of fruits and/or vegetables per day.
    • Foods rich in selenium, omega-3 and omega-6 fats, vitamins C and E, and zinc.
    • Slow-releasing carbohydrates (like beans) instead of fast-releasing carbs (like bread).
  5. Exercise. Odds are, men aren’t really going to notice those five or ten extra pounds that you want to get rid of.[6] So don’t drive yourself nuts trying to achieve some random weight. Instead, adopt an exercise routine with the simple aim of just being fit. Trust the likelihood that men will find this quality more attractive than you being able to wear the skinniest jeans on the market.

Using Clothes to Attract a Man

  1. Bare your arms. Showing off as much leg as possible is often used to grab men’s attention, but if this isn’t something you’re comfortable with, don’t fret. Show off as much of your arms instead. Expect this to attract a guy’s eye just as much (if not more so) than your legs. Try wearing more:[6]
    • Tanktops.
    • T-shirts.
    • Sleeveless dresses and blouses.
  2. Bare your wrists. Of course, if you live in Alaska and it’s the middle of winter, you probably don’t have as much opportunity to walk around in a tanktop. So don’t risk hypothermia just to get noticed! However, do try to keep your wrists exposed when you’re talking with that certain someone. Be aware that your wrists are one of the key areas where your body’s pheromones are released.[4]
    • This means he probably won’t take any notice of your wrists, at least as far as he’s aware of. But on a subconscious level he’s more likely to respond to your smell if you don’t cover it up.
  3. Wear red. As with lipstick, incorporate the color red into your wardrobe in order to hold men’s attention. Expect men to find you more attractive in this color than any other. However, keep in mind that this tends to enhance their perception of you, not form it, so don’t expect it to work if he doesn’t like anything else about you.[6]
  4. Play up your Show-off-Your-Curves. Don’t trust fashion magazines and models to represent what men find physically attractive. Expect them to prefer a larger waist-to-hip ratio (as in a tinier waist with larger hips) than what you’re likely to see on the cover of Vogue. So, instead of hiding your hips with baggy clothing, use your clothes to draw attention to them with items like:[2]
    • T-shirts, shorts, pants, dresses and other clothes that conform to your body’s shape.[2]
    • Wearing a belt over your clothes and waist to mimic an hourglass figure.[7]
  5. Wear Walk-in-High-Heels. Heels aren’t for everyone, so don’t feel like you need to do this if you hate how they feel. But otherwise, try wearing a pair when you’re trying to attract a certain man. Expect some clothing to hang more effectively from your body when paired with heels. Also, keep in mind that these tend to make your legs appear longer and more taut, which in turn tends to draw men’s attention.[4]
  6. Add some Dress-Fashionably to your wardrobe. As with the heels, don’t feel like you need to wear a designer dress or tailor-made suit every day of the week. But if casual garb is your main thing, switch things up every now and then. Keep him guessing about what you’ll wear next. For instance:[4]
    • Opt for a dress or suit over your usual jeans and t-shirt.
    • Make a point of showing up to the gym in your nice clothes if he only ever sees you in athletic gear.[4]
    • Wear some elegant pajamas to bed instead of your flannels or sweats.
  7. Wear Flatter-Your-Body-Shape-With-Lingerie. No, this isn’t advice to walk around in your naughties just to catch a guy’s eye. But consider investing in some quality lingerie to wear underneath your clothes. Take advantage of the psychological boost that comes from knowing what you’ve got on under there. Enjoy the comfort and support that the right item for your body will bring. And if things do lead to him getting a peek, trust the fact that he’ll definitely be pleased.[4]

Holding Men’s Attention with Body Language

  1. Build Be-Confident-in-Your-Beauty in your looks and self. Everyone has something they wish they could change about their features, but don't fixate on what you don't like about yourself. Instead, focus on what you do like about your appearance. Even more importantly, put more emphasis on who you are as a person rather than what you look like. Bolster your self-confidence by remembering or even composing lists of your:
    • Achievements
    • Positive relationships with friends, family, and others
    • Skills and talents
    • Personality traits
  2. Smile. It may be annoying when random guys on the street tell you to smile, but know there’s a reason why they do it: men are attracted to people who smile. Expect them to respond more positively to someone who does even if there’s a more beautiful person in the room who’s sulking. So break out your best grin and show them that you’ll be a pleasure to talk to.[6]
  3. Walk-Like-a-Catwalk-Model your stuff. Walk in a straight line whenever possible. Take longer strides than you normally do. Practice placing one foot directly ahead of the other. Attract men’s attention with your rolling hips and swaying gait.[6]
  4. Look him in the eye. Expect men to be attracted by self-confidence just as much (if not more so) than physical beauty. So don’t look away when talking to them, or even if they catch you checking them out. Maintain strong eye-contact from start to finish in conversation.[4]
  5. Make physical contact. Touch them on the shoulder, arm, or back to get their attention. Do the same when you laugh at their jokes or want to emphasize the punchline of your own. Give them a hug, handshake, or some other small gesture when parting ways. Show them that you’re comfortable with touching and being touched by doing it at any opportunity when it feels natural.[4]
  6. Copy his speech and gestures. Whether you’re talking in person or writing through text or email, adopt his patterns. This doesn’t mean you have to repeat everything he says or does (in fact, the more obvious you are, the less likely it will work), but try mirroring the way he moves and uses language in slight, subtle ways. Demonstrate that the two of you are in sync. For example:[6]
    • If he has a tendency to hook his thumbs in his pockets, do the same at alternate times.
    • If he says, “Thank you kindly,” instead of, “Thanks,” thank him in the same manner.
    • If he abbreviates “Tuesday” into “Tues” when texting, abbreviate that and other days of the week, too.
