Rédaction CASTIZEN

- Pre-shoot skin prep
Why Skincare Matters
4K cameras capture everything
Pores, texture, discoloration — all visible in high-resolution photos and video.
Less makeup needed
Good skin means less foundation, which looks more natural on camera.
Career longevity
Consistent care protects skin over years of studio lights and makeup.
Client confidence
Brands prefer models with healthy, well-maintained skin.
Morning Routine (Before Shoots)
| Step | Product Type | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Cleanse | Gentle foam or gel cleanser | Remove overnight oils without stripping |
| 2. Tone | Hydrating toner (no alcohol) | Balance pH and prepare for serum |
| 3. Serum | Vitamin C serum | Brightening, even tone, glow |
| 4. Moisturize | Lightweight moisturizer | Hydration without heaviness |
| 5. SPF | SPF 30-50 (non-greasy) | Protect from Morocco's intense UV |
Evening Routine (After Shoots)
| Step | Product Type | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Double cleanse | Oil cleanser → foam cleanser | Remove makeup thoroughly (most important) |
| 2. Exfoliate | Chemical exfoliant (2-3x/week) | Remove dead cells, prevent texture buildup |
| 3. Serum | Retinol or niacinamide | Cell renewal, pore refinement |
| 4. Moisturize | Rich night cream | Deep hydration during sleep |
| 5. Eye cream | Caffeine or peptide-based | Reduce puffiness and dark circles |
Morocco-Specific Skincare Tips
- ✅ Hydrate aggressively: 2-3 liters of water daily — Morocco's climate is dehydrating
- ✅ SPF is non-negotiable: even in winter, UV exposure is significant
- ✅ Argan oil: Morocco's native treasure — use sparingly as nighttime facial oil or hair treatment
- ✅ Hammam: ghassoul clay and black soap for deep cleansing (1-2x/month)
- ✅ Avoid heavy products before shoots: makeup artists prefer clean, lightly moisturized skin
Pre-Shoot Skin Prep (Day Before)
No new products
Risk of allergic reaction.
Extra hydration
Sheet mask or sleeping mask for added moisture.
No harsh exfoliation
Risk of redness the next day.
Early bedtime
Sleep is the best skincare.
Extra water
Drink more than usual to keep skin plump and glowing.
