9 Ways to Keep the Cost of Preparing for your Boudoir Session Down

Getting ready for a boudoir session doesn’t have to break the bank. You can look and feel fabulous without splurging on every little detail. Here’s a guide to saving money while still rocking your session like the star you are:

1. Don’t buy lingerie

Forget splurging on new lingerie! We’ve got an enormous and fabulous collection in the studio that you can use. From lacy sets to silky robes, our selection has something for everyone. It’s like having a wardrobe of boudoir wonders without spending a dime.

2. DIY Pedicure Magic

Skip the salon pedicure and give your feet some love at home. Focus on the bottom of your feet with a good scrub and moisturizer. A little TLC goes a long way, and your feet will be ready to dazzle on camera without the spa price tag.

3. Nail It Yourself

You don’t need to book an expensive manicure to have perfect nails. Do it yourself at home with your favorite polish and a steady hand. Keep it simple with nude or light colors to complement your boudoir look, and you’ll save money while still looking polished.

4. Coconut Oil Hair Deep Condition

Pamper your locks with a coconut oil treatment right from your kitchen. Apply coconut oil to your hair, leave it on for a few hours or overnight, and then wash it out. It’s a budget-friendly way to achieve shiny, healthy hair that’s camera-ready.

5. DIY Teeth Whitening

Brighten up your smile with a DIY teeth whitening treatment. Mix baking soda with lemon juice to create a natural whitening paste. Apply it carefully, leave it on for a few minutes, and rinse thoroughly. Voila! A sparkling smile without the pricey dentist visit.

6. Pack Your Own Lunch

Skip eating out and bring your own lunch on your shoot day. Pack something light and delicious to keep your energy up. It’s practical, saves money, and ensures you stay nourished while looking stunning.

7. Make Your Own Body Exfoliator

Mix up your own body exfoliator with sugar and honey. The sugar sloughs off dead skin cells, while the honey moisturizes. It’s an easy, budget-friendly way to get your skin smooth and glowing for those close-up shots.

8. Forego the waxing studio

Forego the salon waxing and shave your bikini line at home. It’s a quick, cost-effective way to keep things neat and tidy. Just make sure to use a good shaving cream and shave in the direction of your hair growth to avoid irritation.

9. DIY Facial Hair Removal

Waxing at home is easier than you think! Pick up an easy-to-use wax kit from your local beauty or drug store for your lip, brow, and chin. It’s a small investment for smooth, hair-free skin without the high salon prices.

Preparing for your boudoir session can be glamorous and budget-friendly with these savvy tips. From using our studio’s stunning lingerie collection to DIY beauty hacks, you’ll look and feel fabulous without spending a fortune. Embrace your inner DIY diva and enjoy your boudoir session with confidence and savings in mind!
