Looking after yourself before shoot day

You do not need a complicated routine to look your best. Enough sleep, plenty of water and avoiding anything new before a shoot make more difference than any expensive product.

Three days before

• Do not try any new skin or hair products.
• Do not change your haircut or colour without telling the client.
• Cut down on very salty and sugary food.

The night before

• Go to bed early and get at least seven hours.
• Pack your bag, outfits and documents.
• Check tomorrow's schedule, the address and how you will get there.

On the morning

Have a light breakfast and arrive with a clean face and freshly washed hair unless told otherwise; hair and make-up artists prefer to start from scratch.

If you are allergic to any product or ingredient, tell the make-up artist before they start.
