47 Sexy Secrets to Be Seductive & Make Anyone Feel Horny Around You

Want to know how to be seductive? It’s not that difficult. If you just follow these tips, you will have anyone falling at your feet and begging for more.

Wondering how to be seductive without overdoing it or being too subtle? Well, seduction has been around for far longer than most people realize. 

Way back when, people used seduction without even knowing it as a means to get what they want. It definitely worked back then, but since we learned what it is and how to harness it, it’s gotten even better.

The art of seduction, for many, seems shrouded in mystery. We all want to be one of those people who smolder with sex appeal, and who always manage to seduce the people they fancy.

In reality, mastering the art of seduction is more difficult than it looks. It takes proper effort and practice to get really good at it. There are those out there who seem to be effortless and totally natural when it comes to being sexy and seductive. However, it’s definitely not as easy as it seems.

Many people know what seduction is, but can’t use it effectively; their form of seduction is awkward and uncomfortable for both parties. That’s why we’re here to help!

What does it mean to be seductive?

The art of seduction is very different from simply turning someone on. Sure, you can turn on a guy by sticking your hand down his pants, but seducing him takes a lot more skill and ability. [Read: Seductive women – 20 ways they draw you in with charm and sensuality]

Seduction appeals to a person’s most primal instincts. It works in a way that makes them completely oblivious to the fact that you are actually seducing them.

It’s sneaky – and can give you more power than you think. Seduction works on someone’s subconscious mind, too.

How to be seductive

Some people are naturally super seductive and can turn someone on with one move. Others need a little extra help in that department. 

Either way, there is hope, because seducing someone can be learned with a bit of practice. The art of seduction is definitely something taught and learned. With practice, anyone can learn to be more seductive – if they’re willing to give it a shot. [Read: How to be a seductress – The complete guide to work your magic]

If you’re one of those folks who can’t even seduce the world’s easiest person, these are all the tips you need. Keep in mind that they’ll take time to learn, and even longer before they become second nature to you.

So, if you want to become a master of the art of seduction, start with these tips.

1. Prolonged eye contact

If you want to know how to be seductive, eye contact is your best friend. You don’t want to make it into a staring contest and freak people out; however, a long seductive look with a slight smile will make someone feel the right kind of nervous.

Give long, lingering looks. Just enough eye contact to force them to look back at you, then you can look away and continue with your conversation. Always hold their eyes for a few seconds before looking away.

Remember, don’t be afraid to really hold eye contact. [Read: How to do prolonged eye contact in flirting just right]

2. Shift your gaze to their lips

There’s nothing that will get someone thinking about your lips like looking down at theirs. The most seductive time to do this is right after you’ve made eye contact.

Slowly shift your gaze from their eyes to their lips, and then let it linger there for a moment before looking away.

3. Bite your lips as you look them up and down

Another classic seduction method used mainly by women is to bite your lower lip as you look down from someone’s eyes.

This ensures they’re looking at you as you bite your lip. For some reason, this drives people wild and has them only thinking about one thing: you. [Read: 30 subtle, obvious, and overly sexual flirting tips for women]

4. Ladies, show your collarbone

This is something that has less to do with actions and more to do with visual cues that turn men on. When a woman shows her neck and collarbone, she’s showing her vulnerability.

In a man’s mind, this is then processed as her being interested in him, which gives him room to make a move. Now, guys don’t consciously realize this is happening. It’s just something they subconsciously notice. So move your hair and show that collarbone!

5. Guys, stand with your legs further apart

Guys who are looking to seduce women, you should stand with your feet apart and pointed toward the girl you want. This, much like a collarbone for a woman, is showing your availability.

It is also a guy’s way of showing a woman what he has to offer. She’ll subconsciously pick up on this vibe from a guy’s body language. [Read: I want to have sex with you – 15 ways to seduce without words]

6. Get close enough for them to smell you

And no, we don’t mean for them to smell your cologne, but that’s technically how close you should be. We mean they should be able to smell your pheromones.

You know, the smell your body releases that you can’t consciously smell. A person’s subconscious picks up on this; their brain chemically processes it and decides whether or not they like it. Give their brain a chance to decide.

7. Brush up against them gently

Touching someone is a really great way to subtly seduce them. It can be as small as just brushing past them, a touch of their hand, or a hand on the small of their back. [Read: 15 really obvious signs of flirting between a guy and a girl]

It could even be pressing your thigh next to theirs when you sit side by side — these small moments of physical contact can feel very thrilling. Initiating that contact will be sure to make someone start looking at you over and over again.

8. Ladies, tilt your chin down and look up

If you’re wondering why there are so many girls out there who look really shy when talking to a guy, it’s because they’re seducing him with this trick!

This is another thing that reaches a guy’s mind on a subconscious level. Men are programmed to think that girls who look young and innocent are attractive, because it technically means they’ll be able to bear more children.

This technique works by making your eyes appear larger and your face look more childish. [Read: 33 secrets to seduce a man who’s not yet yours]

9. Let them chase you

In other words, let your attention wander from them to someone else. This will kick their competitive nature into overdrive, and they’ll want to get your attention back. Now you’re seducing them in a way that makes them come to you, not the other way around.

10. Smile slowly with eye contact

When you finally make eye contact with someone, hold it and slowly let a smile spread across your face. This immediately shows someone that you’re friendly and approachable, yet mysterious – like you have a secret they’ll be dying to find out. It’s a great tip for how to be seductive.

11. Use their name – but lower your voice when you do

Using someone’s name draws their attention to you and you alone. Haven’t you ever noticed how much you like when someone says your name to you?

To make this even more effective, lower your voice when you speak their name. That way, it’ll be like a secret, just between you two. [Read: How to attract men in a way they just can’t resist]

12. Keep your tone low

Your voice should be very low and very slow. Being sultry is key to being seductive. However, don’t make it sound like you’re purposely trying to talk in a lower voice, because that will sound strange and steer people away.

13. Subtle compliments

Flattery gets you everywhere when it comes to seduction. Be sure to pay them lots of compliments so they know just how attractive you find them. 

However, the best way to do this is by not making those compliments too obvious. Saying straightforward things – “your eyes are so sexy” – just doesn’t work the same.

Compliment really small things that they won’t even realize are compliments at first. Something subtle like “you’re really interesting” is all it takes. [Read: 30 subtle compliments for guys to make them blush and make their day]

14. Imitate body language

Another thing you can do to be seductive is to use your body language effectively. 

For example, something that people subconsciously do when they like someone is imitating body language. This also helps the other person like you more, so it’s perfect if you’re trying to be seductive. Just make sure it’s subtle so you don’t look like a creep who is copying someone’s every move.

Use your body language to exude confidence and attractiveness. It makes you appear more attractive and complements your seduction routine.

15. Have confidence

Confidence is key to making ANY form of seduction work. You have to act like you know what you’re doing and you are worth a million bucks.

Simply walking into a room with that attitude will be sure to seduce a few people, even without any other effort. [Read: 25 ways to make anyone like you]

16. Be mysterious

Being mysterious is seriously seductive. Whether you come across as the strong, silent type, or just a lady with a secretive air, it makes the object of your desire desperate to know all your hidden secrets. [Read: 33 subtle ways to seduce anyone]

17. Always leave them wanting more

Be the first one to walk away, or end the conversation or date. Leaving them wanting more is always a good way to ensure they keep on coming back!

18. Always look your best

A seductive person always looks the part. You won’t feel or come across as seductive in old jogging bottoms and a stained t-shirt, will you?

19. Ask questions

If you want to be seductive you have to be charming and interested. So make sure you pay them attention *and flatter their ego* by asking them lots of questions about themselves — and being fascinated by their answers, of course.

20. Make them laugh

Humor plays an incredibly important part in the art of seduction, so sharpen your wit and always make sure you’ve got a few jokes up your sleeve.

21. Be intense

Making them feel a little uncomfortable by not looking away or allowing there to be silence in your conversation actually heightens the sexual tension between you.

But you don’t want it to be awkward or creepy — use just the right amount of intensity to get those butterflies going.

22. Make them feel special

If you want to seduce someone, make them feel as though they are the only person in the room. Give them the attention they crave! [Read: Fractionation seduction – How men seduce women by playing their emotions]

23. Whisper in their ear

Whispering involves getting close; the feeling of your lips brushing against their ear and your breath on their neck will send shivers down their spine.

24. Go somewhere romantic

The art of seduction involves creating the perfect ambiance, so make sure you take them somewhere romantic. Somewhere cozy and quiet, with dim lighting and flickering candles, ought to do the trick. 

Or head out for a moonlit stroll along a beach under the stars. The world is your oyster, but remember, you’ll make it harder on yourself if you pick somewhere crowded, bright, and noisy. [Read: 46 cute ways to be romantic and melt anyone’s heart]

25. Be playful

The art of seduction isn’t just about being serious and mysterious! Be playful and flirtatious too.

26. Be unavailable

People always want what they can’t have. Unfortunately, this does seem to be a law of nature! You don’t have to be completely standoffish, but don’t offer yourself up on a plate. Making them work for it instead makes you come across as all the more desirable.

27. Be suggestive

To be seductive, you need to be okay with taking things to a more suggestive and sexual level. Don’t be afraid to do so, but just remember not to push anything too far or make anyone feel uncomfortable.

28. Be patient

Above all, remember patience! If you get pushy, you immediately switch from being seductive to needy or overbearing — and that’s a complete turn-off.

29. Stimulate their other senses

Most people rely on their sight and hearing and consider them the most important of the five senses. But what about smell, taste, and touch?

Try to do things that incorporate those senses into your seduction routine. You can use perfume or cologne, flowers, food, and even feathers to get you started. Or anything else you can think of!

30. Be “innocent”

Everyone is familiar with the “schoolgirl” fantasy, right? You know the one where a woman acts all innocent like a little girl?

Well, this can be a fun routine to seduce someone too. You can act like you’re not trying to seduce them when, in fact, you both know that you are. [Read: Seductive selfie – 34 best sexy selfie poses and tips to show yourself off]

31. Don’t seek too much attention

Attention-seekers aren’t very sexy. Part of being seductive is being self-confident and mysterious. So do the opposite of seeking attention. You want to make them seek you out, not the other way around.

32. Make a better connection with them

Part of being seductive is getting to know someone better. A lot of people think emotional intimacy is sexy, and it turns them on.

Everyone likes it when another person takes an interest in them and their lives, so always try to build a stronger emotional connection between you.

33. Make them want you more

There are a lot of ways to make someone want you more. From playing hard to get to dressing provocatively, you can use any strategy that you think will work on the object of your desire. The goal is to make yourself irresistible to them. [Read: 28 sensual, romantic secrets to kiss someone passionately and deeply]

If you’re a woman, you can make yourself look even sexier if you use lipstick wisely. Choose a color that compliments your skin tone, and make sure you accentuate those lips so that he can’t wait to kiss you.

How to be more seductive to your partner

Now that you know how to be seductive in general, how can you be that way with your partner specifically? Here are some things you can try.

35. Surprise them when they get in the door

By “surprise,” we don’t mean just greeting them at the door in your regular old jeans and t-shirt. We mean dressing sexy – or wearing nothing at all.

You can even get creative and wrap yourself up in plastic wrap, or something else that is equally odd yet intriguing. [Read: How to dress sexy – 29 subtle and classy ways to make them lust for you]

36. Wear lingerie

Ladies, you know that almost all men love lingerie, right? Of course; the point of it is to seduce your man. But the ultimate goal is to have the lingerie come off as soon as possible, right? 

37. Pretend to be strangers

This is always a fun role-play scenario. Go to a bar with your partner and sit at opposite ends. Then, go up to them and pretend like you don’t know each other.

Flirt and try to “pick them up and take them home.” Be as naughty and seductive as you can with your words and actions.

38. Tease them

Everyone likes a little teasing. There are many different ways you can tease someone. You can verbally tease them, or you can physically tease them with things like feathers or even handcuffs. [Read: 30 sexy ways to tease your man and make him want to F you right there]

39. Provide them with acts of service

Now, the term “act of service” can mean a lot of different things to a lot of people. It can mean anything from a sensual massage to a blowjob. Or it could just mean cleaning the kitchen! Try to figure out – and do – what would turn your partner on the most.

40. Let them take control

Sometimes people like to be dominant and in control. So, maybe it’s time to be a little submissive and let your partner have their way with you.

You can throw in a little light BDSM if you are both a little sexually adventurous!

What NOT to do in seduction

Of course, when learning the art of seduction, there are just as many things not to do as things to remember to do. If you want to be seductive, NEVER:

41. Be needy

No one likes someone clinging to them or vying for their attention.

42. Be pushy

Don’t ever push too hard. Learn how to take no for an answer. Even master seducers get rejected sometimes!

43. Be aggressive

Don’t get aggressive or angry if someone isn’t falling for your charms.

44. Sulk

Again, throwing a hissy fit or sulking because things aren’t working out the way you’d hoped is extremely unattractive; it makes you look immature, and a little pathetic too!

Accept that you can’t win ‘em all and move on to the next one. [Read: Fractionation seduction and how men seduce women using emotions]

45. Get too comfortable

If you want to keep the art of seduction alive, never get too comfortable. Keep on practicing!

46. Take someone for granted

If you begin to take someone for granted, you lose all your incentive to seduce them. So, try and remember why you were attracted to them in the first place and always keep making an effort.

47. Give away too much too soon

Remember, it’s a good idea to always keep a little something back. It is mystery and intrigue that strongly attracts us to other people, so make sure you don’t just blurt out your entire life story on the very first date!
