And here is how I look after spending 10 minutes following all the steps from this thread!pic.twitter.com/ecMhILROsv

Here is how I look on a Zoom call with absolutely no makeup:pic.twitter.com/EbUkQAYsrO

Finally, grab a matte setting spray. I tend to get shiny on Zoom calls if I don't use it. It also helps keep things in place while you work throughout the day!pic.twitter.com/o0anqm1uED

I'm a fan of funky lipsticks, but if you aren't, opt for a tinted lip balm to moisturize and bring a tad of color to your lips. You also don't have to worry about getting it on your teeth or anything!pic.twitter.com/6wAmjYcQE8

Blush & bronzer are very important for online meeting looks. Zoom tends to wash out our skin, so you want to bring some life back in. Apply blush to the tops of your cheeks and bronzer around the perimeter of your face. You can also use a bit of bronzer as eyeshadow if you want!pic.twitter.com/dYgom9IVp6

Dot the concealer over any blemishes or dark spots on your face that you'd like to hide. One little boop will do. Let it sit for a minute or two for more coverage, then gently tap with your finger until it's blended. ELF has awesome concealers.pic.twitter.com/Qhte6Ej8Wy

Use concealer lightly Apply a few pats of a shade slightly lighter than your skin to your orbital bone & tap it in with your finger. AVOID bringing it up right under your eye until the very end. You don't want to pack it in because that's how you get weird creases.pic.twitter.com/3kYip33deK

Look for a brown mascara as well. It will add some length and fullness to your lashes without making your eyes look spidery! This one from L'oreal is my favorite.pic.twitter.com/8FdOeaNWxP

I like using dark, thick black eyeliner with a little cat eye, but that's just my preference. Opt for a brown eyeliner if you want something a little more neutral and soft.pic.twitter.com/m8zXCagGHA

If you have sparse eyebrows, use a pencil slightly lighter than your hair color to fill them in using tiny light strokes. If you already have full brows but they get bushy, use a brow gel to keep them in place.pic.twitter.com/gbLGeWUROQ

I never use foundation, but I almost always use a tinted moisturizer with SPF. They add a little coverage without being cakey. My favorite is from NARS, but there are billions of options out there.pic.twitter.com/9jRvGAFX4D

First, invest in a good primer. You want something that will not only create a barrier between your skin and your makeup, but will give your makeup something to cling to.pic.twitter.com/g99dowauX1

Skincare is the first step to good makeup in my opinion. Even the best makeup does very little for unhealthy skin. Nail your routine! (And let me know if you want me to talk about skincare in another thread bc I have many thoughts there too)pic.twitter.com/ptFyympsI5

So I wanted in this thread to talk about minimal "no makeup makeup" specifically for people who don't want to overdo it and/or who don't want to look like they are wearing makeup, but maybe want to look nicer on Zoom meetings, etc.pic.twitter.com/Y75gSnbXHn

First, I am not a makeup artist or a skincare specialist or aesthetician or anything like that. I'm just someone who has become obsessed with makeup and skincare during quarantine. These are all my own personal experiences!pic.twitter.com/YZgmAgaYTN

A while ago I mentioned talking about Zoom makeup in my newsletter. I feel like most people who sub to that newsletter won't really be interested, so please enjoy this Twitter thread instead!pic.twitter.com/9niXApausZ
