Work Day Makeup Ideas from Rhian Ramos and Jess Connelly

Get ready because starting now, the deadlines will start pouring in like crazy. It’s all part of the rush before the Christmas break, so the coming weeks might be the toughest ones

From last minute-meetings to loads of paperwork, don’t forget to keep your composure and cool. How can you give an excellent performance in the workplace if you don’t feel and look like the achiever that you are? It doesn’t take much to pull it off with these products, inspired by the latest looks our #TeamPreenPH girls have posted on Instagram.

  Don’t let geeky glasses be an excuse for you to not wear makeup. When you have to wear frames during the day, you can’t do much with eyeshadow so opt for a good lipstick. You can go for a nude shade to make your lips look plump. Try Happy Skin Shut Up & Kiss Me Moisturizing Matte Lippie in It Girl (P649), which fits in the boardroom and in the bar once you clock out.  

Happy Skin. Available at Glorietta 4 and selected Beauty Bar branches. For more information, visit their website.

 If you don’t want to bother with a lot of products but still want to look good, it’s best to have a jet-black eyeliner and a mascara handy like the L’Oreal Superliner Gel Eyeliner (P500) and the MAC Studio Sculpt Superblack Lash (P1,200). Create a dramatic line across your lid, and coat your lashes with some mascara to look awake and alert in any work situation.

L’Oreal. Available at selected Watson’s branches. For more information, visit their website.

MAC. Available at SM City North EDSA, SM Megamall, and Eastwood Mall. For more information, visit their website.

When you don’t have time to blend in a ton of eyeshadow in the morning, just reach for a single shade like the Revlon Colorstay Shadowlinks in Copper (P525). The color easily complements a lot of skin tones and can be used alone to give a little more life to your eyes. You can even match it to your coat or top just as Jess did for an unfussy, yet thoughtful and color-coordinated look.

Revlon. Available in selected Watson’s branches and at PCX, Greenbelt 3. For more information, visit their website.  

Martine Cajucom    

Nothing beats having clear, smooth skin to show you’re not letting the stress get to you. Emulate Martine’s perfect complexion with a base that will keep you from looking dull under those horrible office lights like The Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream (P795). It’s easy to apply and is made with tea tree extract that helps you fight pimples and other blemishes.

The Body Shop. Available at SM Megamall, Glorietta 2, and Robinson’s Place Manila. For a complete list of stores and more information, visit their website.

 

Rhian Ramos

 

Look at  how Rhian’s brows are still in place even on an off-day.That just means that you should make sure your brows are well-groomed on work days all the more. Reach for something like the Benefit Gimme Brow Gel (P1,200) that will keep you brows in place and fill in the gaps with just one stroke.

Benefit. Available at Greenbelt 5, SM Megamall, and Rustan’s The Beauty Source, Glorietta 4. For more information, visit  their website
