Before you put on any makeup, make sure your skin is clean, well-hydrated, and properly moisturized.
Choose a foundation or tinted moisturizer with light to medium thickness. Use a brush, a sponge, or your fingers to spread the foundation out evenly.
Use a light makeup to hide spots, redness, or dark circles under your eyes. Put the concealer on the spots you want to cover up.
Use soft browns, taupes, or light grays for your eyeshadow. Avoid shades with shine or glitter.
Use an eyelash curler to curl your eyelashes and make your eyes look bigger. Then, put one or two coats of mascara on your upper eyebrows.
Eyebrows that are well-groomed can frame your face and make you look more put-together. Fill in any bald spots with a pencil.
For a healthy flush of color, lightly dust a natural blush color on the apples of your cheeks.
Choose a lipstick or lip gloss in a shade that closely matches your natural lip color or choose a soft, neutral color.
Lightly dust a transparent powder over your face to set your makeup and make it last longer.
Keep in mind that the key to makeup for the office is to keep it simple, fresh, and natural-looking.
