In 2014 the world searched for 'guy selfie tips' and 'men selfie tips,' but almost never for 'girl selfie tips.'
The year of the selfie
Purely a vanity project?
From A-listers at the Oscars to monkeys in the jungle, selfies hit the mainstream in 2014 with searches increasing 8x on last year. People wanted to know how to take a 'better selfie,' up 6x, while the rest of us were simply asking 'what is a selfie,' up 3x on 2013.

Everyone thinks selfies are dumb. Even people who take nothing but selfies know it, on some level. But we all keep taking them because, dammit, sometimes you need a shot of how great you're looking and there are no other people around. The truth is, the right shot will help you stand out from the crowd on online dating sites, and seeing yourself in the best light possible will probably get you feeling confident. Two birds, meet one stone. So here are our top tips for making your mug look better the next time you decide to point and shoot.

If this were a test, we’re pretty sure having a mirror in the mix would count as cheating. And to make matters worse, it’s like having a "C" student do the work for you -- the image is backward, the flash produces glare and the final product feels as though it belongs in a dark corner of Craigslist.

You may be flying solo, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look to see what’s going on behind you. Does your bedroom look like a nuclear war zone? Is there a naked stranger strolling by? All it takes is a quick peek over your shoulders to prevent your selfie from getting photobombed.

Most selfies (and, indeed, photos in general) suffer from poor lighting. You should be facing your light source, preferably natural light filtered through a window. Direct sunlight can oftentimes be too harsh and indoor lighting, particularly when it’s fluorescent, can cast a nasty yellowish hue on your head. Tempted to toggle that flash on? Think again. You’ll likely end up with a serious case of red eye.
5.
Everyone has their ideal angles. There are very few folks who can handle full-frontal, so try maneuvering your mug ever-so-slightly to the side with the camera positioned from above. Otherwise, you’ll find yourself packing on some extra pounds.
