It's the beauty dilemma of the WFH world: You have another impromptu virtual meeting and want to look polished, put-together and ready to take on whatever your boss/clients put forth. Trouble is, the camera might not show that... so you need some makeup that'll give life to the virtual you. (Preferably with little effort and/or time — you might still be on the clock, after all.)
These easy-to-apply, flattering beauty picks will do just fine: Click through the gallery to see the multipurpose beauty products that will have you ready for your Zoom meeting (or whatever video conference app is your current preference) faster than it takes to update the app.

Make it look like you're basking in golden hour no matter what time of day your video call is happening. The three flattering shades are inspired by the colors of the Santa Monica sunset. Dab the vegan color on cheeks and lips for a luminous, soft-focus finish.
It doesn't matter whether you got a tan this summer or not. The Nudies Bronze will deliver an all-over glow that won't read as muddy or — gasp — orange. Pick from five easy-to-pull-off shades. The cream is on one side, with a detachable blending brush on the other (you know, so there's no need to scour your makeup bag for a blending tool with five minutes to go until that important call).
Pandemic dreams, stress breakouts and any other issues will not show on your complexion, thanks to this all-over, full-coverage concealer. The genius dual-ended product has a flocked doe foot for precision application and a blurring sponge to blend. It promises 12 hours of wear and can stand up to almost anything, including sweat, humidity and meetings that go on 30 minutes later than scheduled. Choose from 42 shades.
Regardless of how bad the light is on the Zoom call, your face will radiate warmth with just a few dabs of this lip and cheek tint. The intentional "slime" formula is buildable and basically foolproof. The multipurpose hero is even infused with skin-loving liquid plant collagen.
