Career Diva: Green at the Scene (Corporate FOTD)

Good Morning beautiful, beautiful people! I have decided to have "Career Diva" looks which are inspired by fashion forward, working women. Just because you have a corporate job does not mean one has to rock reading glasses, matronly hair and a plain face. Not At All!!!

The art of corporate make-up is one that is drenched in controlled creativity, when I say controlled creativity I mean being creative but working within limits. One cannot be looked at as "professional" wearing a blue lip or a bright rainbow of colors on the eyelid.

Being able to match and blend colors to give a soft, subtle appearance with still maintaining a pop of personality is the goal for the look of a "Career Diva".


Here is my first "Corporate make-up" look, "Green at the Scene" Inspired by the following OOTD:

<3 My nude pumps!


BROWS: Miliani Brow Pen in Dark Brown & NYX Brow Pencil in Dark Brown

EYES:  On the lids (all urban decay shadows) Grafitti on the inner lid and tear duct, Haight on the remainder of the lid, used both Gunmetal and Rockstar in the outer V to give the smokey effect. I used Underground as the brow highlight. 





LIPS: Lips are fully lined with NYX's Purple Rain, filled in with MAC's Daddy's Little Girl from the 2013 Archie's Girls Collection.







FACE: L'Oreal True Match in Cappuccino, Ruby Kisses Liquid Eyeliner in black, Maybelline Stilleto Lash Mascara, Ben Nye Banana powder for under eye highlight, Ben Nye Sienna for contouring, LaFemme Cinnabar on and finally I set my look with Ben Nye's Topaz powder:













Have an Awesome day and BE YOU!!

  1. Great example! This is exactly the type of tutorial that many need to see. You can be fly and corporate, but it takes a little more thought.
