Avoid these mistakes before taking your headshots.
Before you get your headshots, there are certain things you should and shouldn’t do to ensure you look your best.
Headshots and brand photos are an investment, so following the right beauty or skincare routines at the right time is important.
Firstly, don’t try a new skincare product or procedure two weeks before your photos.
Your skin may react unexpectedly, and you won’t have time to address any issues that arise.
New skincare products or procedures should be done at least 3 months before your photos to give you ample time to see results and adjust if needed.
Secondly, avoid foods that cause bloating or puffy eyes for at least two weeks before your photoshoot.
Drink plenty of water and eat the right foods to keep your skin and body in optimal condition. Additionally, exercise to feel energized and help your skin look vibrant.
Thirdly, don’t go overboard with your makeup and hair for your photoshoot.
You want to represent the real you that your clients see daily.
Your makeup should be elevated for the camera, but not to the point where you look completely different.
The key is consistency and learning to enhance your natural beauty for events.
Lastly, if you don’t usually get a tan, don’t opt for a self-tan for your photoshoot.
Instead, learn how to use bronzer to give you a natural-looking glow.
Remember, photoshoots can be challenging, and it’s essential to have a clear plan for your makeup, skincare, and outfits to make the most of your investment.
