“Mascara, makeup wipes, concealer, things like that, so I can take it off and go from a show to a casting. At castings they don’t want any makeup.”

“You [need to] make sure your face doesn’t get frozen, so a scarf! And an extra pair of socks, especially when it snows, because we go from casting to casting. Sometimes there are no cabs and it’s better to run!”

“I always try to [carry] a fresh-squeezed juice. This morning I had a carrot-ginger because you need something for the immune system! I usually just go to local places in the area. I like Pret a Manger and Whole Foods, too.”

“I always have a snack with me, like a protein bar. Kind [bars] are good, but I like the ones with the chocolate on top because they taste more like candy! And I like putting stuff in my water, like lemon or chlorophyll—it’s green. I order bottles of it on Amazon. You just put a few drops in.”

“Berocca. I always bring it with me. It’s a [tablet], and you put it in a bottle of water. The modeling agency gave it to me, but you can also find it in the pharmacy. I take it every day; I’m sick right now, so I have to! And music. I like Tame Impala, or sometimes I play some electronic music. I just start dancing, and that relaxes me.”

“I have Emergen-C packets, the raspberry flavor. And I’ll tell you my secret: Music, 100 percent, keeps me sane and in the right mind-set—backstage, walking down the street, walking out of the show. Right now A$AP Rocky is one of my favorites. It helps me keep my groove.”

“I always have a Quest bar in my bag and an apple or other fruit—if you’re on a casting for six hours and they don’t have food, it’s really important! And moisturizer—[Embryolisse]. It just does its job. It’s so dry outside right now.”
