We focus so much time, effort and expense dressing up to look good for a date… but what good will that figure sculpting bandage dress with the illusion creating colours do if you’re too insecure to take it off?

So many women dread getting naked for the first with their man.. not because they don’t want to… but because they’re worried about how their bodies look.
Here are the top 10 tips on how to be comfortable naked.
1. Exercise
Argh! I know.. lazy right? But when it comes to toning your body, there’s really no substitute to exercise. Put in more walking into your daily routine, climb the stairs, anything! Just get your body moving.
2. Get Ready
If you know it’s going to be a hot night with your man, plan ahead and get your body cleaned and well groomed. Shave, scrub, moisturise, the works!
3. Look Around You
It’s okay to have imperfections. Even skinny girls (and me) have cellulite. Heck, look at the man you’re about to get naked with, he’s probably no oil painting either.
4. Accentuate
Don’t get hang ups about the things you cannot change about your body. Instead, play up the good things. Have no boobs? Then Show off your flat and taut abs! Have a dimply butt? Then make sure his eyes are on your ample boobs.

5. Create Shape
When you create curves with your body, it stretches your skin. This makes your skin soother, tightens flabby areas and creates the illusion of a more toned body. So bend your legs, arch your hips, etc.
6. Have a robe
Instead of having to strip down in front of your partner, some women find it easier to do it in the bathroom and then put on a sexy robe. This makes the disrobing process much easier and less fumbly. In fact, if you come out in a sexy robe, I guarantee you that he will take it off for you anyway.
7. Passion
The first time you are with someone special can be so exciting. Perhaps the sexual tension has been building up for weeks or months! Draw on this passion, throw your inhibitions away and get sucked up in that moment. In the heat of the moment, you won’t have time to worry about how your butt looks.

8. Tell him about it
Hey if you’re close enough to want to have sex with him, you should be able to talk to him. If you’re nervous about getting naked with him for the first time, just talk to him about it. He’ll be a gentleman about it (if not, dump him).
9. Be confident
Or at least fake it. When you’re self conscious and insecure, you tend to naturally slouch inwards, and this is not flattering to the naked body. So think about your posture, a confident posture is sexy.
10. Take it slow
Lastly, the key to looking good naked is to be comfortable with it. So do not feel the need to rush into it. Take it one step (or sock!) at a time.
