- LUMINOUS, GLOWING SKIN
Where you’re sitting and your sitting position could be a factor for a fresh-looking face. Ensure you’re sitting in a conducive environment, I would recommend that you sit beside the window, it tends to lighten up your face and ensure you avoid directly sitting under any harsh overhead lights, which can make your face shady.
You know, the zoom app is built to be responsive to light rays, shadows which means it’s a perfect time to show off your glowing skin so it is not bad if you add a little glow and skin tone of an illuminating foundation.

Funny, some black spots might be so stubborn, therefore you can use a concealer to cover them up, this will brighten up your whole face. Depending on how you want it, you can go heavier with concealer because you are going to want to brighten everywhere that you might not necessarily need to. Depeou can even go a few shades lighter than normal to make your face appear even brighter.
Add a highlighter to your cheekbones so that they will pick up light. To keep the glow on your cheekbones and avoid unwanted shine while the meeting is going on, we recommend using powder to mitigate any oiliness.
- BIG BRIGHT DOE EYES
Sometimes after going through a stressful day, we still need to sit behind a screen to have some conversation or probably a business meeting. It might seem difficult to open your eyes wide but I would recommend some tips to look more awake:
Define the wrinkles on your face with a natural-colored shadow. Try to keep the shadow rounded and ensure it follows your natural eye shape. Also do not line your waterline.
In the place of enhancing the perimeter, you can just trace the eyeliner just underneath your eyelash line, it will in turn make your eyes look wide open. You can give your face some touch of mascara to finish up your look. Mascara is highly recommended to accentuate the perimeter of your eye and make it appear larger. Then, brighten your face the most by smiling at yourself.
- FLUSHED-LOOKING CHEEKS
Did you know that when you add a pop of blush to your cheeks, it can give your face a more youthful look to combat any camera-induced sallowness?? I’m sure you cannot help blushing. Here are some recommended tips:
Remember I told you to always stay out of a shadowy place. It’s better if you stay by the window side for brighter light and warm shade, as cool tones can translate darker on camera. Warm tones are any colors with yellow or golden undertones. I would recommend you to apply some pop of blush, sweeping it along your cheekbone and then taking it down into the apples of your cheeks. If you don’t know where the apples of your cheeks are, they’re easy to find, just smile and find the round parts of your cheeks that pop.
To finish, swipe your blush across your eyelids and into your temples to create an all-over flush.
- FULL, POUTY LIPS
The way you adjust your lips has its way of bringing out your look. You might be afraid to overline your lips, you know it might be too noticeable. During your meeting on Zoom, no one will notice even if you overdo it, it can only be much more noticeable when your face comes out much clearer on camera. However, there’s a need to make some adjustments and try new things and do more than you might in an actual meeting.
Check out the tips below:
First, you need to find a lip liner that matches your natural lip color. This is very important so as not to mix things up. Next, you use the matched-colored lip liner to line your cupid’s bow, just to get a bit more aligned.
Then, you ensure you use a gloss ingredient or top it all over with a clear gloss formula. Make sure the color goes in alignment with your natural lip color and since you want your lip to look fuller, all necessaries need to be noted. Therefore, the shine off your lips will make them broad and fuller on camera.
