Makeup for different occasions: 10 types of makeup you shouldn’t wear in the office

Although some makeup looks good and fashionable, it is definitely not suitable for work. Be sure to remember these taboos of office makeup!

Taboo 1: Using blush over a large area

Having cheeks as rosy as a girl can indeed make the whole person look more lively, but using blush over a large area is more suitable for resting on weekends. If you use blush over a large area when going to work, your colleagues may think that your face is allergic, and it may also give people the impression that your cheeks have a "rural red".

Taboo 2: Exaggerated pink makeup

Pink makeup is a trick many girls use to look younger, but in the workplace, you should still use this color with caution. First, it will give people the impression that you are still at the intern stage, which makes you look unprofessional. Second, pink will make your eyes look red and swollen, and it would be too exaggerated if you paint the entire eye socket like a model.

Taboo 3: Emphasize the lower eyeliner

There is a painting method that has just become popular in recent years that emphasizes the lower eyeliner. Filling in the lower eyelid with eyeliner and eyeshadow will make your eyes appear bigger, but this look is more suitable for creative party makeup rather than for work. How many bosses do you think can really understand your little thoughts?

Taboo 4: Thick black eyebrows

The trend of thick eyebrows is getting stronger and stronger, but in daily life, our eyebrows should be mainly natural, so as not to make ourselves look like we have grown a pair of small eyebrows. Thick and dark eyebrows like the model's are too dramatic and will look abrupt in normal times.

Taboo 5: Lipstick with glitter particles

Lipstick with glitter particles is futuristic and can also make your lips look plumper. However, if you use this lipstick at work, it may be embarrassing if it looks like your mouth is not wiped clean from a distance.

Taboo 6: Sexy cat eye makeup + pink lip makeup

Sexy cat eye makeup and pink lip makeup are both very fashionable makeup, but it would be a bit too frivolous to wear both of them at work. It is recommended that you remove one of them and only focus on one on your face, which will have a better effect.

Taboo 7: Berry-colored lips + wheat-colored skin

Berry-colored lip makeup will make you look more mature and beautiful, while wheat-colored skin is a sign of health and vitality. However, if these two characteristics appear at the same time in office makeup, the skin tone will appear too dull.

Taboo 8: Black smoky makeup

Black smoky makeup can indeed make your eyes look bigger and brighter. If you go to a party at night, this kind of makeup will definitely make you the center of attention that night. However, if used in the workplace, thick black smoky makeup is still a bit too dramatic and makes you look less elegant.

Taboo 9: Exaggerated false eyelashes

False eyelashes are very suitable for people with short eyelashes. They can help you enhance the effect of your electric eyes. However, if you go to the company with super exaggerated false eyelashes like these, even if you don’t wear a bright red lip, you will still have a feeling of heavy makeup.

Taboo 10: Blue eyeliner

The blue eyeliner paired with the same color clothes is refreshing and simple, and it also has a summery feel. However, this colorful makeup is more suitable for weekend outings. If you use it in the office, it will also make you look unprofessional. After all, everyone wants to leave a good impression on the boss, right?
