How Pro Makeup Artists Prep Tennis Stars' Skin for the Camera

Carson, Calif. – November 06, 2026 -- A four-step skincare routine, from exfoliating powder to SPF 50 moisturizer, helped prepare six professional tennis players for their close-ups at the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) Portrait + Content Day on November 4.

Skincare brand Dermalogica teamed up with Highlight Artist Agency for the event. Celebrity makeup artists Carolina Benita and Jenny Ventura worked on the players, drawing on their experience with Hollywood red carpets and editorial beauty.

Benita prepped Hanyu Guo, Kristina Mladenovic, Sara Errani, Linda Nosková and Karolína Muchová. Ventura worked with Kateřina Siniaková.

Kawanishi, Japan – November 06, 2026 -- A water-based nail polish with nail-repairing keratin, paired with a remover made from 100% natural ingredients, was displayed at a Cancer Survivor Fashion Show at Kansai Rosai Hospital in Japan.

Chemotherapy can change the nails. The source attributes this to inhibited basal cell division and proliferation in the skin, activated melanin-producing cells, and impaired nail growth. Drugs that may cause nail disorders include fluorouracil (5-FU), TS-1, capecitabine (Xeloda), docetaxel (Taxotere), paclitaxel (Taxol), cytarabine (Cylocide) and some molecular targeted drugs. Reported effects are darkening, ingrown nails, thinning and brittleness.
