Types of Modeling

Beauty and Glamour Modeling

Beauty Models

Beauty is for advertising makeup and like products so your body type is not as important. It is crucial, however, to have a beautiful face with an almost flawless complexion. Even if you decide you want to be a beauty model it's still a wise choice to tone your body for other types of modeling so that you don't limit yourself.

Glamour Models

It is critical that you have the body type needed for glamour or body modeling. These are the models you see in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Editon or Glamour Magazine. You'll also see glamour models gracing the pages of Victoria's Secret catalog.

Look through these or similar books and magazines to see if your body measures up to the emmaculate bodies of these glamour models.

The payscale can vary but keep in mind that the pay is normally doubled for lingerie or nude work. Glamour is very lucrative but evey model is not comfortable with this type of modeling and how much skin they have to show.

My personal advice is to wait until you're at least 21 years old before making a decision to do any type of nude work.
