Dating Tips for women

Statistics show that we make instant judgments within the first 3 seconds of meeting someone – and therefore on a date, you need to make sure you portray the real you!

Don’t use too many different products - their smells can combine to high-octane levels.
Less is always, always more – look sophisticated, not cheap.
Bright red lips, and long red nails are not the look for dates.
Wear your regular, but minimal jewelry, you don’t want to look like Mr T!
Don’t try too hard, trendy is great, but can be off-putting.
Use a colour corrector as a base if you usually go red after a drink, or flush a lot – check your local department store make up counter.
Don’t go shopping for a new outfit for a first date, you will end up with something that doesn’t fit, feel right, and it can distract your confidence.
Wear good underwear, think Bridget Jones – big or little knickers, and do wear a good bra – one that fits!

Do make sure that your hair; nails and teeth are all scrupulously clean.
Do wear an outfit that you are comfortable in, and fits properly. There is nothing worse that a body squeezed into too tight an outfit.
Do make sure that your outfit is suitable for the venue / time of day.
Do remember that less is more in every respect on a date – less aftershave, fake tan, or jewelry.
Do have a glass of milk, or a snack before you go. It will help to stop your first drink going to your head, and should help calm those butterflies.

Don’t turn up late
Don’t have a pre-date drink to steady your nerves
Don’t try a ‘new look’ just for your date. Your date is there because they want to get to know you, not someone that you would like to be.
Don’t spend that whole date talking about your ex, your dog, your family, or your last holiday. You should be getting to know a little about each other.
