Launch your Modelling Career

Choose a market: 

The main markets are for catwalk, plus-size, commercial, and swimsuit/lingerie models. Choosing the one that you are most suitable for will have a major effect on your success. At http://www.studiomango.co.uk we can help with all styles.

Catwalk models are at least 5’8″ and quite thin. Plus size models are usually about the same height but most wear over a size 10. Commercial models can be a little shorter and of different body types. Swimsuit/lingerie models often have larger chests with smaller waists.

Create a portfolio: 

It is important to build up a portfolio if you are really keen to start a modelling career, as it’s the first thing casting agents, brands or designers look at and it includes pictures and all the past work so that will determine if they want to work with you.

It doesn’t matter if you will do unpaid shoots (especially in the beginning), just as long as you will expand your images portfolio and you will give the idea you’re working hard on your future dream career. We http://www.studiomango.co.uk can arrange a siting with one of our friendly professional photographers. 

Submit your photos: 

Research, research, research. You have to find the agencies you are interested in, in the first place, and then you will have a complete list of your favourite picks and from then just the ones that you liked will reply.

Then check out the agencies’ websites and make sure you find out how they prefer you to submit your portfolio. If you follow their rules, they will very much appreciated it.

Many agencies have open casting calls, which are an awesome opportunity for aspiring models. At an open call, models bring in their portfolios and meet with casting agents http://www.studiomango.co.uk can supply you with details during your shoot with us.

Look for Experience:

Some colleges have modelling clubs where aspiring models share information about castings they’ve heard of and give each other tips on everything from how to photograph well to what to wear to a go-see.

Through Facebook, you can join modelling groups where you can find other aspiring models like you and have meetings, sharing experiences.

Keep social media platforms: 

One thing you might want to do is keep many social media profiles, which will be a way to reach different kind of people interested in you. This will raise the bar and give you more exposure and contacts.

Also, it’s great if you can feature behind the scenes of your shoots or just you lazing around town, on platforms like Instagram, Facebook or Twitter. If you want to add a more personal touch, start to upload some videos on Youtube. Follow all our social media accounts; these can be viewed by going to.

Make Up Tips for Models

1) Easy and unusual “defrizz”:

Here is the trick from www.studiomango.co.uk straight from a runway backstage. To tame unruly ends of your hair rub a pea-size amount of any hand cream in the palms of your hands and rub it onto the ends of your hair, then brush them. You will have a quick and easy fix.

2) Fuller looking lips:

To achieve fuller looking lips fill them in with the pencil of similar to your lips colour, trace just a little bit outside your natural lip line and then apply a lip gloss with shimmer on top of it, it reflects light and gives the illusion of fuller looking lips.

3) Smoky eyes made easy:

To create a very simple and easy smoky eyes makeup dab a little bit of foundation on your lids (to create a base) and then, apply a soft grey pencil on top of it, blend it gently to create “smudged and smoky” effect. Finish up with great mascara and you are done! Another great tip from www.studiomango.co.uk

4) High-drama red lips: 

To achieve the high-drama, seductive deep red lips, apply concealer all over your lips prior to applying your lipstick. Then trace the contour of your lips with red pencil. Finish it all up by applying 2 red lipsticks – one darker and another lighter. Use darker red all over your lips and apply the lighter red in the middle of your lips. For more precise result use a lip brush.

5) Perfect face with no effort: 

To create “perfect face” models from www.studiomango.co.uk often use a concealer. To be more precise, they use two concealers – one lighter (for around eyes area) and another slightly darker colour for the areas of the face where they need it. Often the makeup artists apply and blend concealer with their fingers. After this “camouflage”, you don’t even need a foundation on top and it looks very natural.

6) How to look amazing and fresh on pictures?

Models often wear bright red lipstick living the rest of the face bare (or they use just a little bit of concealer to cover spots). It looks amazing on pictures taken here at www.studiomango.co.uk!

7) Make it “pop”:

To achieve a very bright eyes’ makeup apply your eyeshadow with a damp brush, like this the colour of your eyeshadow will really pop. Leave your lips bare or use a neutral lipstick to get balanced and cute makeup.
