When it comes to a job that does not have something to do with the creative industry, you should not get too excited with your makeup for a job interview. A professional appearance is required, the right makeup is therefore very important.
First of all, you want to be taken seriously by the employer. This is why you should adapt as best as you can and choose a more natural look. It is important though to wear a little makeup to not completely look like a zombie but don’t exaggerate and don’t go all rainbow if you put on makeup for a job interview. Apart from that, layers of makeup are not always welcome and should rather be avoided.
Thus, you have to pay attention to your eye shadow: Less is more! Refrain from putting on blue eye shadow or other bright colors. If you can’t live without eye shadow, stick to neutral tones like brown or beige. Generally a neutral makeup is the best way to go. Therefore, a bright blush or a loud lipstick should be avoided.
