LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND SMILE
There are people who smiles effortlessly and if you want to become that kind of person, all you need to do is try to practice in the mirror. You can try different angles and types of smile and just pick which do you think would look best for you.
It would help if you look at your photos and see how you smiled in that certain photo. Are you showing your teeth? Is your mouth closed while you are smiling? Do you prefer to smile with your mouth slightly open? Whichever feels natural for you then you should go for that.
Once you have practiced enough, it will be so much easier for you to smile and it will look more natural and less strained. Once you got used to it then you’ll be more confident when it comes to smiling especially in public, and sometimes you wouldn’t even notice that you’re smiling. You can start with your family and friends since they’re the people who you are mostly with. A brief eye contact and flash a smile, it’s not that difficult if you really think about it.

SMILE WITH YOUR EYES
Now that you have practiced your smile in the mirror and you can now comfortably do it, why not try smiling with your eyes. That is the best natural way of smiling because it will give the vibe that you are really smiling genuinely and wholeheartedly. It is something that you cannot force or fake.
When you take a photo, that kind of smile is not real since you are simply smiling for the sake of the photo. But a real smile comes from within and it comes out not only thru the smile that is formed by the lips but also the one that is formed with the eyes.
It is that kind of smile when you think of the things that make you happy. It is that kind of smile when you are surrounded by the people who loves you. It is that kind of smile that whatever you do, it will just come out naturally because of that certain feeling of joy.
