Makeup for the day: practical tips and inspirations for you

The most important makeup is the one used during the day, as it will be the business card of your face. At the same time, it can be the most complicated as it requires good pigmentation and should be able to last all day, even with running, humidity, etc.

Moreover, because it is done in the morning, it competes with sleep, breakfast and traffic, which makes the process even more difficult. Thus, it is essential to know which makeup is ideal for the occasion. This avoids mistakes, which saves time.

The face during the day should be light and natural. Instead of dark, heavy eyes like the night, the idea is to enhance the features, with blush and lipstick colors to match your skin tone or even the desktop you are a part of.


MondeK makeup artist Lili Borges gives you ideal makeup tips for the day: from practicality to fit your skin tone. See below for suggestions and take a few minutes of your day to look even more beautiful.

Light Skin Makeup

Enhance your face with blush to make it look more red and healthy. "Aged rose, peach and coral usually look great," suggests the pro.

In the mouth, matte texture lipstick in pink and reddish colors are great options. Check out a tutorial you can copy for everyday make yourself:
