So here is another office makeup tutorial. It’s easy. It can be done in barely 5 minutes. And It’s classy and polished for office. I did this office makeup look yesterday hence the same shirt and my hair were still a little wet. ๐ But you must keep your hair neat for office.


Start by priming your eye. Apply some loose powder for easy blending of eye shadows.

Now take a soft brown eye shadow

And give a light wash of it all over your lid and above the crease.


Now pick a shimmering peach eye shadow. This one is Estee Lauder Pure Color Eyeshadow in Twilight Rose.

Pack this eye color all over your lid. Don’t go above the crease.

Now pick a plum- bronzy eye shadow

and just push it on your outer crease.

Blend in any harsh edges with a fluffy brush.

Take the same shimmery peach eyeshadow

and place it on the inner corner of your eye.

And apply the plum eyeshadow on the outer outer third of the lower lash line.

Concentrate it mainly on the outer corner because we don’t want too much colour on the lower lash line.r

Line your upper lash liner with a black eye shadow.

You may also use a black liquid or gel liner.

Apply kajal on your waterline (optional). You may use brown or nude eye liner also on your waterline.

Curl lashes and apply mascara. And you are done! ๐ I applied a little nude highlighter just below the eye brow arch to look more awake.


I have kept my face makeup also soft.I have used a mattish pink lipstick and a dirty brown plum matte blush to go with the look. ๐

@rati – what brush have you used to apply the black liquid/gel liner on the upper lash ? also, what brush are ideal to line the lower lash except the tiny brush that liquid liners come with? thanks ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) ?:-) ?:-)
Gayathri, I used the Sigma brush but any eyeliner brush would do. And i didn’t apply liquid liner, I just applied the back eye shadow. For the lower lash line use a pencil brush or just use your flat shader brush and work with its tip.
Check your mail pls ๐ ๐ ๐
Me going to blackmail you. :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil:
Did you check the photeees?? ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
