The beauty wakes up at noon, works until late and is addicted to taking a beer bath before bed.
Margot Robbie was born in 1990 into a farming family in Queensland, Australia. With her charming appearance and eagerness to learn, Margot gradually conquered Hollywood with The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) and Focus (2015). Most recently, two blockbusters The Legend of Tarzan (2016) and Suicide Squad (2016) helped her become one of the most notable stars in the cinema capital.
Margot shared on Harper ‘s Bazaar that her day always starts at 2:00 p.m. and ends at 6:30 a.m. the next day. Below is Margot’s usual schedule:
2pm: I hate waking up early in the morning. I usually wake up at noon and eat something called green matter. I don’t know what to call it, but it’s an immune-boosting powder mixed with a little juice. My mother used to give me that when I was sick. But now I use it every day, because there’s so much to do. If you’re that sick, how can you film? That substance tastes a bit disgusting, but is very good for health.
After drinking, I had to take a shower. I use Dr.’s facial cleanser. Lancer. When I go out, I apply some eye cream. I always apply moisturizer day and night from a dermatologist in Australia. That’s it, my skin care secret is just that.
Wherever I go, I carry tea with me. I can drink at least 10 cups of tea a day. In my family, tea is the answer to everything. Everyone who comes to my house is always offered a cup of tea. If something goes wrong, someone will say: “Let me go make tea.” If something funny happens, they will say in unison: “Great! Let us go make tea.”
Actually, I don’t have a specific daily schedule. It depends on my work, sometimes I act in movies, sometimes I take fashion photos.
If I have time, I like to go to dance classes or play sports with friends. Sometimes I play tennis even when I’m not feeling well. I live in London but I often have to go to work in Los Angeles . I love the way I pick up my suitcase and go. I have up to 12 suitcases at home because sometimes I get stuck in some country so I have to buy them. I can fit more things into a suitcase than anyone. Some people have a hobby of collecting shoes or handbags, I have tons of suitcases.
When I go to work, I like to wear comfortable clothes. I often wear plain white t-shirts with sweatpants and white sneakers.

The language coach will practice with me in the car on the way to work. I always need to practice speaking in different accents according to the requirements of the role. I researched all kinds of voices on YouTube. Amazingly, you can find unique, quirky voices online. Then I converted it to MP3 and installed it on my iPod. I can listen and imitate all day long.
Not only do I listen to the voice, I also often look for how people react to each event to express it effectively. For example, in the movie Suicide Squad , I was doing a scene where I was electrocuted and I was thinking to myself, “Okay, am I going to do this exactly?”. Then I went to YouTube and found videos of people touching electric barriers.

3:00 p.m.: I go to get my makeup and hair done. While doing my hair, I applied a mask to help reduce puffiness under my eyes. At the same time, I eat and write letters. Toast with avocado and bacon is my ideal “breakfast”.
Makeup artists use whatever products they want. When I’m not filming, I usually use Ellis Faas foundation with moisturizer. My favorite Lancôme mascara was discontinued, so I recently switched to an Yves Saint Laurent one. I don’t like to wear lipstick but only use lip balm with a little color.
I always use perfume according to the character I’m about to play or am currently playing. If the character is feminine, I will choose a sweet, seductive scent. On the contrary, if the character needs to be strong, I will have to find a bottle of perfume with that scent.

5pm: I start filming. If there’s a movie in which I act as a producer, there will be countless problems that need to be resolved all day long, which is very stressful.
10pm: We break for “lunch”. Now is also the time for me to schedule all the calls and interviews. Then we filmed again until late at night.
5am: The days of filming are really long. I rushed home and just wanted to fall asleep as much as possible. I seem to have insomnia. I had to use an eye mask and listen to music, take Melatonin pills, and spray pleasant scents. I do everything I can to try to sleep better. But I can’t sleep right away, I have to look through the call sheet for the next day and arrange the location where I’m shooting.
6:30 a.m.: I absolutely love beer baths. I have to soak in good beers to sleep well. I’m also a Harry Potter “addict” . Even though I’ve read all the books about 20 times, I still read Harry Potter before bed because it helps me stop thinking. I feel like my body looks better if I sleep more than if I go to the gym. So I have to sleep, even though the whole world is starting a new day.
