If you are make up artist (or a hair stylist) working on a film set, commercial, TV series etc. taking notes of the products that you use on each person (actor) and photographing the look is very important. You have to be able to recreate the exact same look every time regardless if the scene is being shot again the next day or in 6 months; and that's what continuity is. Sometimes there is scene has to be re-shot or there wasn't enough time to shoot it in only one day, and the make up can't be different and it will show. And as a make up artist, you have to be as professional as you can and cannot allow yourself these kind of mistakes.
The best way to re-create the looks and avoid mistakes is to take photos (front, side, back) and to write down what products you used; brands, shades, numbers etc. The same thing goes for facial hair, wigs and hairstyles.
However, there are a few continuity issues that could happen. E.g. if a scene ends up being re-shot after a longer period of time sometimes it is hard to get the same products again (wigs, clothes etc.), as they have been hired and returned to the hiring company. Or make up products end up being lost, or new people have been hired for the pick-up shoots. These issues can be stressful, and in feature films, there is a person called a Script Supervisor who deals with this as well as with film stock, dialoge changes or camera lenses.
