If quarantine rhymes with food, pajamas, and hair messier than ever, smart-working is synonymous with hundreds of video calls. Video calls, perhaps, fortunately, are the best way to pull ourselves together in this period of self-isolation, at least forcing us to a hinted make-up that takes us a little back to office times. The Video call make-up, as we will call it from here on, must not be heavy or exaggerated, we are always at home so the option of a natural look is the favorite. Unless, therefore, you are a beauty influencer who, even in quarantine, venture rainbow-colored smokey eyes, the perfect make-up requires a few but essential steps. Let’s not forget, moreover, that the natural look is considered one of the most established beauty trends of this Spring / Summer 2020, we certainly wouldn’t want to find ourselves unprepared for our return to society, right? Here are the basic steps for a natural make-up, video call approved:

PS. To the laziest and heedless of the current trends, we remind you that in smart working the half-length rule always applies: cute shirt and natural make-up above, pajamas with teddy bears below!
FACE:
Forget contouring and bronzer, to make a perfect video call make-up, prepare your face with a moisturizer and a walnut of your usual foundation. Use the concealer for closed eye circles and add a touch of blush on the cheeks for a little color, preferring peach and mauve tones based on the complexion.
FENTY BEAUTY MATTE SKINSTICK: (Ps. It also covers dark circles from prolonged insomnia!)
BENEFIT COSMETICS GEORGIA BLUSH:
EYES:
Again, the eye shadows must be forgotten, apply a pass of volumizing mascara alone, or if you prefer, first make a thin line of eyeliner to intensify the look.
TOO FACED BETTER THAN SEX EYELINER:
LIPS:
The lips must be as natural as possible, however much you may be a fan of lip tints, it is hardly credible to imagine yourself at home with a Burgundy lipstick. Choose colored lip balm, tending towards nude or slightly peach like this:
If you prefer to give an extra touch of color, as on the cheeks, try the new GLASSY by Espressoh:
A transparent gel that turns into a tint based on the nuance of the complexion, perfect for use on both lips and cheeks.
