How to Take A Mirror Selfie


Once you’ve put on your killer makeup or found the perfect outfit, there are three steps you’ll need to follow to get an aesthetic mirror selfie. You’ll need to learn how to strike the perfect mirror selfie poses, declutter your background, and use natural light to your advantage.


1. Find the Perfect Mirror Selfie Poses

Using YouCam Perfect To Find the Perfect Mirror Selfie Poses

The best hack we have to offer for cute mirror selfies is to work on your poses. Hunching over and growling at the camera can be cute if you’re going as a vampire for Halloween. Otherwise, put your best foot forward (maybe literally) to master the aesthetic mirror selfie.

Tips For Aesthetic Selfie Poses

We have three main tips for perfecting your pose:

  1. To capture your full look, you want to back up and get your full body in the shot. Make sure you’re standing up straight so you look your tallest. Depending on what you want to accent, you may also want to jut out your hip or lean casually to one side to create a cool, relaxed aura.
  2. Then, keep your phone by your cheek or side, and snap either straight-on or from an upward-tilted angle. Make sure the phone doesn’t block your face! People want to be able to see you.
  3. Make sure you’re looking at the camera/phone through the mirror, and not at yourself in the mirror — make eye contact with the viewer. While candid photos where you’re looking off into the distance can be great hits on social media, it doesn’t make much sense when you can see you’re holding the phone in the picture.

Whatever pose you go with, make sure you’re confident and feeling good. Trust us, it will show in the photo.

2. Keep a Clean Background For Your Aesthetic Mirror Selfie

Whether you’re taking the photo in the bathroom or in your bedroom, make sure your background is clutter-free and doesn’t distract from the subject (you). No one wants to see your dirty bathroom or pile of unwashed clothes in your mirror selfie.

Erase Items From Mirror Selfie Background

Cleaning up your area is one solution to this, but what if you’re in a time crunch and can’t spend an hour tidying? If you do have visual noise in the background, it’s simple to use the YouCam Perfect object removal tool to erase items from the background. You can cut out whatever you don’t want — even other people — to make sure you’re the star of the show.

3. Find Natural Light For Your Mirror Selfie

Edit And Adjust Light for Aesthetic Mirror Selfie

The problem with bathrooms and bedrooms is that they don’t always have great light for a mirror selfie. That’s why, when possible, you should try to shoot your aesthetic mirror selfie in natural light.

If you’re in a windowless space (a bathroom, perhaps), turn on the lights, but skip the flash. In addition to washing you out and making you look like a ghost, a camera flash can also create a huge reflection in the mirror and completely distort the photo. You may not even be able to see yourself.

How to Brighten Dark Mirror Selfies

Instead, use the Brightness tool in YouCam Perfect to brighten dark photos. To get to this setting, just click on Edit > Tools > Adjust > Brightness. Your mirror selfie will instantly look brighter and the photo will be more balanced.
