“I always thought all I wanted was to look good…until I realized what it FELT like to be strong!”

There have been plenty of guides towards self-help take popularity among western culture in recent decades. Some books are years old but still contain core truths, such as ‘How To Win Friends & Influence People,’ written and originally published by Dale Carnegie in 1936. Since then, the spawn of the self-help industry was almost guaranteed, and it permeates almost everything we hear about online regarding positive business aspiration. While these guides are real, useful and deserve your time, sometimes taking a more basic approach to feeling relevant can work wonders.

It’s likely you’re reading this blog either for your motivation, new helpful ideas, or beauty tips. Why not combine the three? Sometimes, overcoming the issues that might be stagnating your work ethic and effort is as easy as giving yourself a new, powerful look. This can help you on a fundamental level. Everyone knows that if you feel good you look good, but if you feel confident and capable, the world is yours. What follows is a list of tips to help you do just that.

 

Makeup

Your makeup should look tasteful but also help you look fierce. Experiment with your look. It might be that you haven’t been applying your makeup as well as you could be, so booking an appointment with a personal beautician can help you overcome any issues. Take what they recommend to heart, but try and avoid being sold too many products. Like a good meal, what works best is always simple, yet bold applications.

For example, if looking for a solid, bold yet tasteful look, Urban Decay Vice lipstick Comfort Matte can help you introduce your look with a bold, eye catching color, and then you can craft the rest of your makeup application around that. Trimming and shaping your eyebrows can help keep the arches of your face look uniform, and also help draw attention away from a large forehead. It can also help you highlight your eyes, which are often the most beautiful feature of your face. Looking people in the eye is a fundamental aspect of feeling confident in your social dynamics with other people, and this can help with that.

Wear

Your general clothing says plenty about you. As a universal rule, staying in season with your trends and spicing up your outfits with a personal flair, be that jewelry and daring hairstyles is a good way to get your personality across. Don’t worry about how you look in terms of the gender divide. People are more androgynous than ever in look and dress, meaning that you can get away with it. You can look ultra feminine and still stay powerful. A guy can look the most aggressive but have a sensitive work candor.

It all depends on how well you stay true to your personality. If you’re not one for wearing dresses and skirts, there’s no need to implement this in your work dress. Doing so will only make you feel uncomfortable. Theme your fashion based on what you would usually wear, but turn the professional dial to 11.

With these tips, you’re sure to feel courageous and happy in your daily work schedule.
