Problem: Article: . The perfect smile doesn't need Hollywood teeth or a certain shape of lips. Smile in order to make other feel happy, open, and comfortable. People will care more about the reason behind your smile than its appearance. The advice below will help you adjust how your smile looks, but that's icing on the cake. Look in the mirror and relax your facial muscles and shoulders. If you're tense, gently rub your cheeks and forehead. Clench and relax your jaw a couple times. A genuine smile is the best smile. Think of a fun memory or recent event, your friends, or your crush. Even an embarrassing story from your childhood can make you smile. One of the key differences between a real smile and a fake one is a change in the muscles around your eyes. Any of these can work: Try crinkling your eyes or squinting a little. This might already happen if you have a wide smile. Try widening your eyes a little, and raising your eyebrows. Even a small tilt of your head can make a smile look better. Start by practicing a formal smile, for a work or school photograph. Keep your teeth closed together. You can keep your lips closed or flash a lot of teeth, whichever you prefer. Try putting your tongue behind your upper front teeth. This makes your bottom lip look fuller and gaps in your teeth less noticeable. This is typically a feminine look but anyone can give it a try. This is a subtle, small smile you'd use at a social gathering, to catch someone's attention. Press your lips together and pull them wide. Hold the smile for just a second, long enough for the other person to notice. Here are a few variations on this: Curve your lips by keeping the center steady as the outer corners move up. Try the curve again, but keep stretching the corners until you flash a moment of teeth. Smirk by raising one side of your mouth higher than the other and arching a brow. This can come across as saucy or sarcastic, so be cautious. Open your mouth so your teeth aren't touching, and give a giant, wide smile. Raise your eyebrows as you do this. This smile says "I'm having a great time!"
Summary: Boost your confidence Find a mirror and relax. Think of something happy. Adjust your eyes. Practice a formal smile. Make a friendly smile. Show off a giant smile.

Problem: Article: Guacamole turns brown when exposed to air, even air mixed in during stirring. Press the guacamole with the back of a spoon to compress out some of the air. Apart from this minor starting step, you only need to choose one method to prevent browning. Don't just cover the bowl. Press the plastic wrap on top of the guacamole. Press out air bubbles, then seal it around the bowl's edge. For best results, check the type of plastic on the triangular recycling symbol: Of the common options, PVDC provides the best defense against air, followed by LDPE. EVOH cling wrap provides an excellent air seal, but only when dry. Cover the bowl without touching the guacamole. Select a container that barely fits the guacamole, to keep the amount of air low. Place the guacamole in a container with a tight-fitting lid. Pour on just enough water to cover it, then close the lid. This is an effective method for smooth guacamole, which can keep green in the fridge for 2472 hours. Before eating, pour the water out slowly while holding back the guacamole with a spoon. Stir before serving to mix in the last few drops of water. This may be unpleasant in chunky guacamole, made with avocado slices instead of mashed avocado. One test with whole avocados failed within four hours. The more mashed and stirred your guac is, the better this will go. Some chefs swear by this, but there's no evidence that the pit has any special anti-browning chemicals. Most experts agree that this only protects the guacamole directly under the pit, by blocking the air. Any food-safe object could be used for the same purpose but the pit is conveniently at hand.
Summary: Press out air bubbles, then choose a method below. Wrap in plastic wrap. Cover with a layer of water. Leave in the avocado pit.

Problem: Article: These hug the thighs but flare out at the knee, making the lower leg look larger and adding flattering shape to the leg line. You don't have to go for bell bottoms, unless you like that look. Even a slight flair will change your silhouette and make your legs look a little bigger. These are designed to make your legs look like matchsticks, so you'll want to stay away from them if your goal is to have bigger legs. If you absolutely must buy skinny pants or jeans, look for some with whiskering around the thigh and knee areas. Whiskering breaks the leg line and creates the illusion that your legs are bigger. Go for floral, striped, polka-dotted, or tye-dyed tights and pants - the more colors, the better. When you wear patterned fabrics on your legs, they leave more of a visual impression. Wearing dark, solid colors, on the other hand, can make your legs look thin and small. . Boots that come up to the knee can completely change the way your lower legs look. Choose slouchy, thick boots instead of skin-tight boots. Wear them over jeans or tights to give your legs a fuller appearance. Wearing boots over pants adds a little bulk to your legs. Try wearing knee-highs over a pair of jeans for a fashionable look. If you wear skirts and dresses that are loose and billowy, your legs will look smaller by contrast. Wearing skirts and dresses that are cut a bit closer won't make it look like your legs are being swallowed by fabric. Wearing hemlines that fall an inch or two above the knees will make your legs look less small. Wearing very short skirts and dresses draws attention to your legs, while wearing hemlines that fall below the knees can emphasize the contrast between your skinny legs and the fabric you're wearing.
Summary:
Wear flared pants. Avoid skinny pants. Look for patterned tights and pants. Wear knee-high boots Wear skirts and dresses that hug your body. Wear dresses and skirts that fall just above the knees.
