Men of gfy tell me what you like about your beauty products. what's the best way to photo these bottles ( im familiar with light box technique, i use it regularly. im asking about backgrounds and props.) i cant put hot chicks in the photos.

When I buy beauty products I usually look and the name to find the stuff I need and then I only look at the photos to be sure that it is the right stuff.. So I would just put it on a white background and make sure that the images turn out real clear..

The words, "beauty" and "men" do not go together well. You would be selling to a very small market.

deadfidel, what words besides beauty products could I use to describe them? what do they call that for men?

Hmm no hot chicks. Next best thing would be a beer, football, guns, or trucks then. Can't go wrong with that (or maybe I've just been in Texas for too long).

You could use a restroom setting, or just slap it on a sky background.

I don't think you'll find guys with beauty products on GFY.
