If you want to step up your selfie game, check out these tips from these six K-pop idols. TWICE Mina (트와이스 미나) According to TWICE member Mina, the best tip for an enviable selfie is to find a spot with good lighting. She also recommends setting your camera higher at a 45-degree angle – not too much, not too little. Incorporating simple poses could also enhance your selfies. Try doing a finger heart or a peace sign when taking the photo to add pizazz! I-DLE Yuqi (아이들 우기) Yuqi of I-DLE's selfie tips all lie in the poses. A simple one she demonstrated was the 'flower pose' where you rest your chin on the palm of your hand. She also said idols often do the 'cheek heart' pose, where you curve your hand and put it beside your cheek. Another pose she recommends is winking, but having your face close to the camera to add some cuteness. ENHYPEN Sunoo (엔하이픈 선우) ENHYPEN's resident selfie master, Sunoo, has a lot of tips for the best selfies. First, he recommends checking yourself in a mirror to ensure you look good. He also said the lighting is crucial, so make sure not to have shadows in the photos. Lastly, tilt the camera to highlight your best angle and make your face look smaller – and voila! The perfect selfie! I-DLE Miyeon (아이들 미연) I-DLE member Miyeon is so dedicated to taking selfies that she even has a video on the topic. While her video focuses on taking selfies at photobooths, you can apply the same tips to phone selfies. In her video, Miyeon recommends wearing something that complements your skin tone. She also used props in some of her photos, so try those out if you need help with poses. SEVENTEEN Jun (세븐틴 준/文俊辉) The tips that SEVENTEEN member Jun shared might not be conventional, but sometimes going against the norm can give you the best results. Unlike the others, Jun recommends taking selfies in a dark room but raising your phone's brightness to illuminate your face. He also said that taking mirror selfies without makeup can make your skin look better in the photo. aespa Giselle (에스파 지젤) Giselle from aespa is known for having a strong selfie game – and it's thanks to this unexpected app. In one of the group's vlogs, the idol revealed that she uses Snapchat to take selfies. More specifically, she uses the flash feature. She recommends using the ring flash rather than the regular flash because it gives the photo a more airbrushed finish. Now that you've gotten all the tips from these idols, all that's left is to practice, and you're on the way to better selfies! Which tip do you think is the most helpful?
