Skincare Prep: A Radiant Foundation
To start, the foundation of a flawless camera look is skincare. A good moisturiser, like Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base, can work wonders for your skin. Complement it with Kiehl's eye cream to rejuvenate the delicate under-eye area. Don't forget Bobbi Brown Lip Balm to keep your lips looking fresh and hydrated. These products lay the groundwork for a radiant appearance, especially important for your camera-ready look.
Eye Focus: Brighten Your Gaze
Sometimes the Zoom and Teams camera can be less than forgiving and accentuate areas prone to darkness, like your under eye area. Counter this effect with brightening products like Nars Soft Matte Concealer. It's an essential tool in your makeup kit. If time is tight, consider spot concealing specific areas to add coverage and brightness.
For a more open and alert look, don't skip curling your lashes and applying a few coats of volumizing mascara. Tidy, well-groomed brows can also do wonders for framing your face on camera.
Lip Focus: The Power of Colour
You might not think much about your lips during that morning Zoom call, but a pop of colour can make a significant difference. It can instantly make you look more awake and vibrant on camera. Try the Bobbi Brown Extra Lip Tint for a sheer, wearable colour. However, if you're feeling bold, go ahead and rock your favourite lipstick. It's all about finding the right balance to suit your style and the occasion
Looking your best on camera is an art, and the right makeup can make a world of difference. These expert tips should help you enhance your Zoom presence and boost your confidence. Remember, the camera may not always be kind, but with the right makeup techniques and a little practice, you can always put your best face forward.
Your camera-ready self awaits, so go out there and shine.
