It’s been a few years since we discussed, ladies — what is your everyday makeup routine? What have you added in the past few years, and what have you subtracted? What have you started doing differently? Is there anything in your makeup routine that you keep doing even though it isn’t trendy? (If you’re on Zoom or other video calls all day, how have you varied your makeup?)

For my $.02, I feel like I’ve added more into my routine than I had before — I’ve been better about going to the gym lately and all of those mirrors makes me realize I feel better if I’m wearing blush, brows, and concealer!

For nights out, for no reason whatsoever I’ve mostly stopped contouring — I feel like I don’t have sufficient patience for the blending required, and I’d rather look, well, uncontoured than walk around with an obvious unblended patch on my neck or something.

In the past, I’ve shared my tips for dark circles beneath your eyes and my favorite cream/liquid blushes, the Corporette staff has chimed in on whether we use foundation, BB cream, or something else. We’ve also discussed interview makeup tips, makeup tips for people who wear glasses, and discussed how makeup routines can differ based on work/weekend/party.

My Latest Short Makeup Routine

As of 2026, my short makeup routine is pretty boring — curled eyelashes + concealer + blush (NARS Orgasm) + eyebrow + powder, with a different lipstick and eyeliner depending on my mood. If I’m feeling extra fancy I’ll add mascara, highlighter, and/or do my brows with this cream and a brush similar to this one (here’s my review). (I also add eye shadows in the “extra” days but it’s a huge variety, maybe 25 or so different ones.)

Some favorite lipglosses and lipsticks include Dior Addict Lip Glow, NARS gloss (Orgasm, Fast Lane), Clinique Chubby Sticks and Clinique (Black Honey). I use this NYX lipliner (Natural) for almost all of them. For more color I like MERIT’s Millennial pink and Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk.

My favorite blushes as of 2026 include liquid and cream blushes like Youthforia, MILK, and NARS the Multiple, as well as powders like Diorshow’s Backstage Rosy Glow and NARS (in Orgasm). I also have NARS’s liquid blush in three different colors.

My favorite eyeliners as of 2026: Chanel (Espresso), Urban Decay (Sabbath, Smoke), and a lot of brown and black options from the drugstore like NYX. I also love this Bobbi Brown eyeshadow liner for days without mascara, something about it feels soft yet complete.

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

If you’re looking for a stylish way to stay cozy during yet another cold snap, look no further than this wrap cardigan from Aritzia. Where I live, we’ve been below freezing temperatures for weeks, and I think that deep V-neck is probably not in the cards for me right now. I would probably add a thin turtleneck for a little extra coverage.

This sweater comes in five lovely colors, but this “birch” color looks like it would be beautifully versatile. 

The sweater is $138 at Aritzia and comes in sizes 2XS-XL.
