Better than bare

In the workplace, appearance matters. It is not enough to be efficient and effective in what you do, even if you are the epitome of a model employee. In order to achieve professional success, you must remember that in the complex and complicated corporate world, perceptions and impressions have a bearing.

So it is imperative that women who dream of climbing the corporate ladder and aspire of breaking the proverbial glass ceiling should always look their best. In putting your best “face” forward in the workplace, the rule is to use neutral tones and to keep it light — no glitter and glisten, no glow and gloss (except on the lips). This “muted” makeup is, after all, better (and more powerful) than a bare face.

Here are some makeup tips to give you an air of confidence in dealing with people in the corporate world:

1. Even out skin tone with Studio Finish Stick Foundation in crème (base) and beige (for morena skin).

2. Apply oriental Two-Way Cake.

3. Groom eyebrows and line with brown Color Pencil.

4. Apply light yellow eye shadow from the Cosmetic Collection on the entire lid. Next, brown-colored eye shadow is applied on the upper lid.

5. Curl lashes and apply Silver Collection black mascara.

6. Lightly sweep earth-toned Belightful Blush.

7. Finish the look with Poppy Love Extreme Plus Lipstick.
