  • How to look better in this year's holiday pictures

  • Holidays are coming and you know what that means -- lots of photos. While we can't help if someone takes a shot of you mid-bite or chugging egg nog, here are a few tips for those slightly more planned photos:

  • 1. Wear foundation that's slightly darker than your skin. It'll keep you from looking pale. Just be sure to blend it onto your neck to avoid that horrible mask look.

  • 2. Don't use powder; it looks cakey and ghost-like on camera. Use oil blotting sheets instead.

  • 3. Stuck at the end of a group shot? Lift your shoulder slightly and roll it forward for a skinnier-looking arm.

  • 4. Totally cheesy, but to look slimmer try the celebrity 3/4 shot. Turn your body so 3/4 of it is facing the camera, put one foot slightly behind the other and hands behind your back or on your hip. Smile naturally to avoid looking like Paris Hilton.

  • 5. Don't let anyone photograph you from below eye level; it gives you shadows under your eyes. Be a diva and insist they stand on a chair; it's worth it.
