Do you need to wear make-up?  The answer is yes, for men and women.

Wash your face with soap and water, then apply an astringent.

You can wear foundation if you like, but more importantly, use powder.  When you arrive at the studio, we may apply a little powder, especially on the nose, forehead, and bald spots.

Keep your other make-up simple.  Avoid make-up which contains glitter or is "frosted."  The director can advise you as to what looks best.

Because the eye of the camera focuses on a man's beard more than the human eye does, try to shave as closely as possible before going on camera.  If you're scheduled to appear later in the day, bring a razor.

Do not get a haircut within a week of appearing on camera.  Style your hair to keep it away from you face and out of your eyes.  Some hairpieces may appear to be a different color on camera.  If you intend to wear one, you may wish to consult with the director beforehand.

If there will be any close-ups of your hands, give yourself a manicure.
