Winter is fast approaching which means the cold weather and wind will affect your hair and skin. Here Kube studios tips to help your during the winter period 

Dry Skin - Its very common in winter to suffer from dry skin. To help reduce this try to exfoliate at least once or twice a week to get rid of any dead skin. Use a gentle cleanser in the morning and a hydrating cleanser at night. If your suffering from really dry skin, use a
a heavier moisturiser and apply before bed. You could also use a layer a hydrating oil under your moisturiser to give it extra softness. 

Static hair - In the colder months we tend to wear hats to keep our heads warm, however when your hair is dry and you remove your hat, your hair can go all static. To help reduce this you can make sure you're hydrating your hair properly. This will help prevent your hair from being dry. Also wait before using finishing products if you have to wear a hat outside as finishing product can make it worse. 

Dull Complexion- In winter our skin can look duller which makes you look more tired. To help brighten your complexion you can use illuminating products. You can add the  illuminating lotion to your foundation or lotion to brighten up your face. Also you can use a highlighter along your nose and above your cheekbones to really make your skin shine. 

Watery EyesCold weather can make your eyes well up with tears which can be annoying as it always looks like your upset. To help keep your make up in check use eye makeup primer to help prevent smudges under your eyes. Also you eyes can get red and itchy in winter so try to always bring soothing eyes drops with you to help keep them looking healthy.

Child Models

Kube Studios advice about child models. 


Some parents may worry that their child is a little bit shy when doing a photoshoot, but its nothing to worry about. Kube Studios often see mothers bring their children in for photoshoots and they can get a bit nervous about all the equipment and lights. However its children's personalities need to shine through strong to make the best photos. Here are some tips that may prove helpful when you are trying to promote self confidence in your child whether for their first day at school or a photography session.




As a parent, you should remember that shyness is not personality disorder; it is just a trait. Most people liken shyness in children to poor self-image and low self-esteem. However, this doesn't mean they have low-self-esteem some children are just naturally mild-mannered and reserved. This is a good thing in itself. Kube Studios noticed that a child with higher self-esteem who establishes eye contact more often is generally very photogenic.

Children are very receptive individuals and have a tendency to imitate adults. If your children see you as a shy person, they are more likely to be shy as well. To help your child overcome shyness and succeed as a child model, it's perhaps time to try and overcome yours too. You can be a positive role model by showing your child how to be assertive while emphasising that assertiveness doesn't equate to aggressiveness.

Kube Studios Modelling Tips

Modelling tips from Kube Studios 




If you are an aspiring model there is no better place to perfect your skills than Kube Studios. We give you real advice and guidance that will help you succeed and stand out from the crowd. Modelling is about commitment and willingness to push yourself. Determination is key to making it as a model and you also have to have the right tools and professional support. Many models only find this through friends or when they get signed to an agency, but how do you show an agency you have what it takes?

1) Have a z card or modelling portfolio

Without an up to date, and accurate modelling portfolio you can't be considered for many castings and can't show your full potential to a modelling agency. Modelling is extremely competitive and anything you can do to make yourself get noticed is worth doing. Make sure your portfolio is not air brushed and taken recently.

2) Don't be late

Be professional at all time, courteous, polite and take it in your stride. This includes what time you turn up. Show them it is important to you and turn up early. Talk to other people around you to learn more about the casting and their experiences and make friends. If people see you are a professional, they will treat you as such. 

3) Facing rejection

Even after you get your portfolio and all the advice you need from Kube Studios, there may be times when you just don't get that modelling job you were after. It is times like these when you need to be resourceful and get back up on your feel and say 'it doesn't matter, let's try again'. Like Stallone said in Rocky Balboa, it is not how hard you can get hit which makes a winner, it's how hard you can get hit, and get back up again'.

Kube Studios tips on how to pose in a photo shoot

How to pose in a photo shoot.



Like any profession, it can take years to build up the right knowledge for your industry. Modelling is not different, there are many things you could practice before your photo shoot. Here Kube Studios guide to how to pose correctly at photo shoots. 

  1. Use a mirror.  Learn how your body looks and moves. The mirror is a perfect tool to give you an idea of what the camera can see.
  2. Use separation between your limbs from your body. This helps to prevent your arms and legs from being squashed against you and making you look awkward. This can also give an illusion of a slimmer figure. 
  3. Lighting. Use lighting to your advantage. For example, if you raise an arm to the light, it could be a whole lot brighter in camera than your face this is because it’s the object closest to the source of light. This will also cast a shadow across you, which will not be flattering.  To counteract this you can use your other arm or move your arm a backwards slightly, so it is away from the direct beam of light. Learning how the light will fall is very helpful when you are trying to get a perfect pose.
  4. Eyes. sometimes if you not careful your eyes can look un- focused. To try and avoid this follow the line of your nose so it keeps your sight straight, this will also prevent too much of the white of the eye showing.
  5. Elongate your neck. This can simulate height and poise. This can be hard to remember because it feels unnatural. Try standing in front of the mirror and stand how you would normally. Then try rolling your shoulders back allowing your face to come forward. This should make a difference in the width of your neck. You can also try popping your jaw towards the camera this creates a strong line as your will have created a shadow
  6. Smaller waist.  You can create an slimmer appearance by positioning yourself to the camera, then you can create the waist you want seen with positioning of your hands on the hips
  7. Hands. It is important to keep your hands loose, try not to clump your fingers together and try to not show as much of the back of your hand. This is because the sides of your hands are smaller and dainty so they look better in photos.

At Kube Studios will understand that your first modelling session can be daunting, it can be hard to get a smile that looks natural. At Kube Studios we love it when our clients have fun at their photo shoots and to help you get your perfect smile here some of our tips to help.

As a model you are constantly asked for different expressions and to present different moods in a photo. But when you need to smile for real, you cannot really fake it. To get a believable grin it helps to use a time when you were feeling happy. Whether it’s thinking of a funny joke or happy memory, it helps if you look happy in photos. If you want to achieve genuine smile you can try lifting your tongue up behind your front teeth. This raises your chin ever so slightly and it helps to open up your mouth a bit.
Most professional models actually practice their smile to make sure it looks natural. Models sometimes practice in front of the mirror and this helps them to not look awkward when they are at a photo shoot. Most models have a range of different smiles so they can mastered different looks that is cater for the photo shoot they are doing. For example they may have surprise smile, flirting smile, coy smile and fun smile. It is important to be aware that you may have to show many different emotions and to be aware of how your face looks when you’re doing these different smiles.
Another great tip to keeping your smile natural is to yell a word before every frame. This helps to keep yourself from becoming glazed over or stiff, it can also help you to keep your energy going during a long photo shoot.

In any modelling photo shoot it is important to try and not force a smile, many people can make the mistake of showing all their teeth in a joker grin. In most situations this does not produce a natural looking smile. Smiling with your lips closed can be just as authentic, as long as you are conveying a real emotion with your eyes. 

So if your budding model or just want more natural looking smiles for your social media photos try our tips, you never know you might just discover that one perfect smile.
