Finding models for camouflage practice: an ethical guide
Model clients help you build experience. They are still real people with real skin, and deserve full care.
Choose simple cases
Small, flat, pale, mature scars or stretch marks. Turn down complex cases, even if the person is keen.
“In the beginning, your portfolio is everything. People need to see your work before they trust you with their skin.”
Evelyn Alvares Vega, SKINEAV Academy
