Makeup Artist (MUA)
A Makeup Artist, known as an MUA, readies models for their time in front of the camera. They apply makeup to highlight features while minimizing glare from bright studio lights, ensuring models appear refined and consistent throughout the shoot.
Related roles include Hair and Makeup Artist (HMUA), Wardrobe Stylist, and Beauty Photography, which often work alongside MUAs during shoots.
Pro Tip
Prioritize products and techniques that reduce shine under bright lights to help maintain a consistent, camera-ready look across shots.
Use Cases
