Gone are the days when heaps of kajal, a nude lip color, casual tees and denims did the work for you. As you step into the corporate world, you can no longer carry the hippie look or the cool casual chic from Stephens. You got to straighten up a bit, get some formal clothes for your wardrobe and know how to bring about the required change in your make-up routine. We tell you the easiest way to get the perfect corporate look that would keep you stylish without loosing the authoritative appearance.
Before you start, cleanse and moisturize face and conditioned lips. A well hydrated skin creates a smooth surface for concealer and foundation.

STEP 1:
Apply concealer under the eye and on uneven patches on face, under-eye circles and blemishes – try a cream based concealer that matches your skin tone (NOT a shade lighter than your skin tone – that’s just a myth). Either use a roll on stick concealer for smooth application or use a concealer brush to apply in stripes and then blend using your ring finger to perfection (that is, till there is no visible difference in shades) – Pat, never rub! If you overdo it, simply blot the skin with tissue.
STEP 2:
While foundation brushes are the best options for a flawless application, using a sponge or even your fingers can do the work just as right. Apply dots of foundation on your cheeks, chin, forehead and tip of the nose and blend the dots together. The right shade of foundation will even out your skin tone and give you a flawless skin. (Do it wrong and you can end up looking like a clown). You can choose to use a powder to remove extra shine or oilyness and leave behind a healthy sheen.

Now smile and Apply blush or bronzer to the apples of your cheeks.

STEP 4:
Eye Shadow and liner: Apply a light shade on inner eye corner and under eye-brows. Shadows can be of any color, suitable for your type, but the tone should be light, delicate or subdued. Add some definition with a same colour eye liner. Then use pencil, suitable for your eye color.
WE LOVE: Espirit Eye Shadows and CLARINS WATERPROOF EYE PENCIL. Water resistant and long-hold even in the hottest temperatures, each creamy-soft pencil leaves a highly defined, long-lasting line that can be blended if desired. SHOP THIS PRODUCT!!!

STEP 6:
Apply a nude or coral lip color. If you can carry the power look to work, you can go for bold red lips. But, if you are not sure, just stick to basics.

1: Check the date code.Sorry, I can’t find the list of Mary Kay date codes. 2: How long the product can be kept for, dednpes upon how it was stored.Both heat and humidity can cause the product to deteriorate faster than expected. Cool, dry storage can prolong the shelf life of the product.If there is no expiration date on the product, then it _should_ have a shelf life of three to five years, under “normal” conditions, whilst in the _original_, unopened containers.Once opened, if you have shared the product with somebody else, then the safe shelf life is less than three months. [The issue here is that sharing makeup can easily cause infections to spread from one person to another. Sharing lipstick, lip glosses, and mascara is asking for an infection.]If you have _not_ shared the product with somebody else, then the following rules of thumb can be used.* Mascara: three months;.* Foundation: six months;* Eye powders: six months; [This is due to the risk of infection.]* Other powders: one year;* Concealers: six months;* Lip gloss / Lipstick: one year;* Eye pencils: one year, if sharpened weekly. If they aren’t sharpened weekly then one month is pushing it;* Cleansers: six months;* Moisturizers: six months;* Toners: one year;If the products does not look, feel, or smell the same as when originally opened, toss it out.
