About this routine
After long 16 hour days on film sets, Margot Robbie's evening routine separates her personal life from her acting characters. She begins by thoroughly washing off heavy set makeup and cosmetics using double cleansing techniques and soothing face pads, signaling to her body that the work shift is finished.
To ease physical exhaustion from long shooting days, she relaxes in a hot Epsom salt bath, a habit she has spoken about frequently in interviews. She often pairs the bath with a cold beverage to cool down. Following her bath, she eats a comfortable dinner with her family or partner while strictly avoiding production notes or work communications.
Before sleeping, Robbie transitions her mind away from scripts by reading fiction novels, particularly fantasy stories like Harry Potter. She finishes her night in a completely dark room using an eye mask to protect her sleep quality before another early call time.
Why this routine works
