The ultimate guide to achieving the perfect work-from-home makeup

Looking your best every day is definitely a must and the enhanced community quarantine is definitely not an excuse to skip your beauty routine.   For those who are working from home and frequently need to attend online meetings, remember that you can skip the fancy skirts and opt for comfy PJs but you definitely can’t put in less effort on your face.

Below are some useful makeup tips to appear smart and crisp for your next Zoom or Facetime meeting:

Look fresh.

You are no longer beating the rush of everyday traffic so the most important tip is to make your skin look healthy and glowing.

To achieve this, apply a small amount of Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation starting from the middle of your face, outwards blending properly using your fingertips or Ever Bilena Blend Me Sponge. This liquid foundation provides full coverage that will give you a flawless finish.

Conceal.

The last thing you would want to look like in your online meeting is tired and sleepless. Cover your dark circles from working overtime or binge-watching your favorite show on Netflix with an ample amount of concealer.

On top of your foundation, apply Ever Bilena Liquid Concealer on the darkest shadows of your eye bags to even out the color of your under eyes. You may also use it to spot conceal your unwanted skin imperfections.

Don’t overdo your eyeshadow.

Look more natural and presentable by going for light or neutral shades. The Ever Bilena Eyeshadow Pink Palette can come in handy as it features six neutral and classic shades that perfectly match your everyday makeup. It is pigmented and blendable for easier application.

Define your eyes.

As much as a perfect shade of eyeshadow does the trick, a gentle swoosh of mascara can also make your eyes look more alive.

Swipe on some EB Advance Lash Define Mascara to visibly define and lengthen your top and bottom lashes with its dual-sided wand and waterproof jet black ink that will definitely make you look awake and more alert.

Add color to your cheeks.

Video calls can make you look pale. Blend a generous amount of Ever Bilena Matte Color Stick over the apples of your cheeks all the way through your cheekbones for a natural-looking flush. The Ever Bilena Matte Color Stick is a multipurpose cream stick that works for the eyes, cheeks, and lips.

Go easy on your lippie.

Be as simple as you can be with your overall makeup including your lippie. Go for neutral shades to make you look more formal. You may use the Ever Bilena Matte Nude Lipsticks that come in six colors to complement your choice of eyeshadow.

After following all these, make sure you sit where there is ample lighting so your workmates can see you clearly. Then, try checking yourself out on your phone or laptop’s camera to see if your makeup appears as desired. If yes, then it’s time to slay that online meeting and impress everyone!

Lazada’s Guide to Mastering Street Style

Lazada’s Guide to Mastering Street Style

Street fashion has been the go-to style of many because it provides an unlimited room for creativity and self-expression while still ensuring comfort. While there is no hard rule on how street style is done, here are some tips to help you keep your street style edgy. We’ve also included some products on sale to help you update your street style collection at a fraction of the cost.

1. Denim rules

Denim is very flexible and can be matched with almost anything!

Feeling a bit dressy but want to keep your jeans? No problem! Pair it with heels and a blazer and you’re ready for a client meeting. For women, check out Freego’s low rise jeans (P1,199.80) and have it paired with these nice Koko black from Parisian (P899.75).

Demin on Denim? Sure! The rule of thumb is to make sure that your denim is of different wash or shade. For men, the blue indigo denim shirt from Wrangler (P1,359.80) paired with Penshoppe’s light blue skinny ripped jeans (P1,099) would look great!

2. Proportions matter

Be ready to roll up your jeans or wear some oversized shirts or jackets.

Just remember that too much of anything is also not good so be sure to keep your lengths to that which you can still comfortably and confidently wear.

For men, Penshoppe’s long line indigo wash tee (P399) pairs well with Oxygen’s distressed cropped jeans (P499).

For women, experiment on high-waist wide-leg pants (P873.03) with your favorite cropped shirt.

3. Love your sneakers

Almost everything goes well with sneakers! When in doubt, go with a pair of classic white sneakers.

Whether you’re planning on wearing shorts, leggings, a dress or even a nice pair of suit, a pair of white sneakers should do well with them. Check out Keds Chillax off-white sneakers for women (P2,695) and Pony’s white Shooter Low canvass sneakers (P2,590).

4. Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize

Tiny details that complement your get could bring a boring outfit back to life.

An outfit with a plain white shirt would be so much better when paired with the pink backpack from Pilot (P698) or the blue Herschel Reid backpack (P1,458). Casio’s resin strap watch (P849) also adds a playful vibe with its colorful dial.

For men, give your outfit an astig look with a dog tag necklace from Silverworks (P225). And for a multi-purpose watch that you can serve as your everyday watch, check out the classic watch from Timex (P2,640).

5. Be Yourself
