The best looks for a company dinner
We’re bringing you the best ideas for your look at this year's company dinner. Don’t miss out!
The company lunch and dinner season is just around the corner, and it is the perfect time to dazzle your colleagues with sophisticated, elegant makeup that reflects your own personal style. In this article we are going to talk about some of the best makeup looks for a company event, which will make you stand out at the yearly “company do".
Bright, natural look
If you prefer a more discreet, natural look, bright makeup is an excellent choice. Start off with a light foundation matching your skin tone and apply some corrector to cover up any imperfections. Then use a highlighter at the key points, such as your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose and your Cupid's bow for a subtle, yet bright finish. Nude or pink shades on your lips and a touch of mascara will highlight your natural beauty. Here are some of the keys to bright makeup.
Classic smoky eyes
The classic smoky look is timeless and never goes out of fashion. Use some neutral colour eyeshadow such as grey, brown or black to create that smoky effect around your eyes. Fade the eyeshadow in really well to achieve a smooth, elegant look. Add a little black or brown eyeliner and a generous layer of mascara to define your eyes. Complement the look with a pale, nude lipstick to balance out the intensity of your eyes. Follow this step-by-step guide to achieve a good smoky look.
Bold lips
If you prefer your lips to take centre stage, a look with a colour in line with the colour of your skin and features could be the perfect choice. Choose a red, burgundy or wine red lipstick to set off your style. Make sure your lips are well defined using a liner in the same colour as the lipstick, taking care to draw a perfect finish. Keep the rest of your makeup fairly subtle, using a light foundation and neutral eyeshadow to draw attention to your mouth. Choose your ideal lipstick colour with these tips.
Subtle shine
Whether it is a daytime or evening event, we sometimes want to add a touch of shine to our look, in which case some subtle sparkle is perhaps the best choice in our makeup. Use some eyeshadow with sparkles in gold or silver colours to give your eyes a more festive touch. Add some highlighter to the relevant parts of your face and then complete the look with a nude shade lipstick to balance out the shine. You can follow the steps at this glow makeup tutorial to increase the shine.
Classic Hollywood look
The look inspired on Hollywood stars is a sophisticated, elegant choice for a company event. Draw a longer line around your eyes, use neutral eyeshadow and add some eyelash extensions for a more dramatic look. Red or burgundy lips will complete your classic, timeless look.
Tips that never fail
Choose makeup that highlights your best features and that will make you feel good with yourself.
Practice in advance. This will help you perfect your technique and to apply your makeup quicker.
Don’t forget to set your makeup in place with powder and spray to make sure it stays on all night.
Take a small makeup bag with you containing some mascara, translucent powders and the lipstick you have chosen. You will be able to touch up your makeup whenever you need to.
If you need to change your look from the day to the evening because it is an after-work event, you can follow these steps: convert your daytime makeup in nightime makeup.
