If you are competing in a beauty pageant, then you want to present a good image to make a favorable impression on the audience and the judges. Succeeding in a beauty pageant is not easy, since only one winner is crowned in the end. However, you can succeed in a pageant by following these steps.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Be confident. Confidence is very important if you want to succeed in a beauty pageant. The audience needs to see that you love yourself and that you believe you will win.

  2. Step 2

    Pick out the right talent to suit your skills. If you are a great singer, then perform a song. If you are great at dancing, then dance a gig. Make sure you choose a talent you are good at and can succeed in.

  3. Step 3

    Get a professional clothing designer to help you pick out the best outfits for the beauty pageant. Choose a few elegant dress, a top notch bathing suit to fit your curves and some classy outfits. Make sure you choose a variety of outfits for the pageant.

  4. Step 4

    Hire a professional make up artist to do your make up for the show. You will want to have a natural look instead of the caked on look, and you need colors to complement your skin tone and your outfits. Let your make up artist take care of you before each part of the show so you can relax a bit backstage.

  5. Step 5

    Practice your runway walk as much as possible. A lot of your success is on how you hold your posture and how you walk on the stage. Practice in high heels so you will know how to present during the pageant.

  6. Step 6

    Work on your public speaking skills. If you watch many pageants, you will see many contestants are nervous and give inappropriate answers to the final questions. Keep your poise and answer the questions in a natural style that highlights your confidence.
