The old saying goes that if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. And while work can’t always feel like a party, there are things you can do to make sure you have more good days than bad days. Hosting holiday celebrations on cam is one thing many models look forward to because it’s a fun way to put fans in a generous mood. Some of the biggest moneymakers are Halloween and Christmas, but there are tons of sex-positive holidays models can capitalize on as well. Mark your calendars, because I’ve put together a list of sexy holidays you can add to your cam show schedule. Not only does this give you a ton of cool theme ideas for shows and content, but you can also use the social media hashtags to gain more exposure and bring in new fans. Some of these holidays are international, while others are U.S.-based, but given how many cam customers there are in the U.S., that shouldn’t stop international models from getting in on the fun! Lingerie Day – April 24 #NationalLingerieDay has picked up a lot of steam on social media over the last few years, with […]
Tips and Tricks
Cam models have the unique ability to make fans forget about their problems and escape into a virtual private island of pleasure, far from the cares and worries that stress them out in their everyday lives. It’s a break from reality that many fans rely on to help them through the tough times. But what happens when a model is going through a tough time of their own? In a perfect world, everyone would be able to take time off when they’re in a bad place mentally and return when they’re feeling better. Alas, this world is far from perfect, and many models have no choice but to work through bad breakups, family issues, health problems and world events that make it hard to focus on the task at hand. This is easier said than done, as cam modeling is not the type of job where you can close your office door and hide from the world as you sort your feelings out. Instead, models often have to smile through it to provide their fans with the much-needed sanctuary they crave. So, how do you power through on days when the last thing you want to do is work? Here […]
Creative expression is a big part of camming, and makeup is just one thing models use to showcase their style. Recently, a model I chat with regularly mentioned some winter 2020 makeup trends she found in a well-known women’s magazine. She wanted to try them but was worried about what the makeup would look like on cam. It’s a valid concern, but there are ways to successfully bring these looks from the runway to your cam room. Here are some of the top winter 2020 makeup trends and how to make them work for you on cam:Add a Pop of Color to the Lower Waterline This trend is the easiest way to give your eyes some oomph without straying too far from your normal routine. Just line the inner rim of your lower lash line with a brightly colored eyeliner, and that’s it! You’ve taken your look to the next level with very minimal effort. Make sure you choose something waterproof, however, so you don’t end up with colorful streaks running down your face as things get steamy during a show. My favorite is MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Resist Color Pencil Eyeliner because it comes in a vast range […]

It’s a busy afternoon, and you dash into your favorite boutique to pick up a few essentials for your next show. “I’m just going to grab what I need and leave,” you tell yourself as you rush past the friendly salespeople and flashy retail displays. On your way to the register, you hear the steady beat of your favorite pop tune playing from the speakers, and a sudden sense of euphoria takes over. An hour later, you’re standing there holding $200 worth of merchandise, wondering how it happened and if you really need the same item in every color. You pull out your credit card anyway because the feeling of “want” is too powerful to resist. Your sudden urge to spend money is no accident; savvy retailers have been using music to drive up sales in their stores for years. Studies have shown that shoppers will spend an average of 34% longer in the store when music puts them in the right mood. The same way sound can persuade customers to spend longer than they planned to in a store, it can also influence viewers to spend longer in your room and put them in the right frame of mind […]

An appealing promotional image can capture the attention of new members and greatly increase the amount of traffic that comes into your room. Remember, your promo image is the first thing members see of you while they are browsing the Who’s Online Now page, so it is important that your picture leaves a lasting impression. When selecting an image, keep in mind that your promo pics must also adhere to Cams guidelines so you do not run the risk that your promo photo might be rejected. Here are the guidelines to follow: Photo dimensions should be Landscape orientation in 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio, minimum 200 x 150px, maximum 1000 x 562px with at least 72dpi resolution.

Social media is one of the most important tools you have to promote your shows and build your brand. While not all platforms are cam model friendly, many performers have luck on Twitter as their terms of service are the most lenient in terms of nudity and promoting adult content. Instagram has far stricter guidelines, but you can still have an account and build your brand so long as you play by the rules. Here are a few tips to help you set up your social media accounts and start promoting yourself right now. Create New Accounts Specifically for Your Camming Persona It can be tempting to just start posting about your cam life on the personal accounts you already have, but if you want to protect your privacy you should create new accounts that don’t link back to your real name or location. Once your basic account basic account set up is complete, populate your feeds with lots of sexy photos so new visitors have a reason to click that “Follow” button when they stop by your page. Add Social Media Links to Your Cams Account Once your social media accounts are ready to go, link them to your […]
Great lighting is a simple way to take your shows to the next level. It can flatter your features, improve your picture quality, and help you set the mood for what kind of show you want to put on. Lighting can be one of the most overlooked elements of camming because it’s not necessarily “required” for broadcasting, but it really is a key component to your success on Cams.com. There’s a reason Hollywood blockbusters have lighting budgets that are in excess of $500,000. Even your favorite social media influencers invest thousands in the proper equipment because they understand how important lighting is if you are going to make your living on camera. Obviously you aren’t going to spend thousands of dollars on lighting for your room, but there are plenty of affordable ways to light up your world on a budget. If you’re just getting started and really don’t have a lot of money to invest, try starting out with something simple like a tabletop ring light. You can get a small one like this for under $20, and while it will only light up a small area it is still far better than relying on a regular lamp. Remember, […]
Ir frente a la cámara puede ser bastante intimidante, especialmente en la era de la alta definición, donde cada defecto se destaca con gran detalle. Como asesora residente de maquillaje de modelos webcam de mi plataforma, recibo al menos una docena de preguntas a la semana de modelos que quieren llevar sus habilidades de maquillaje al siguiente nivel pero no saben por dónde empezar.
