One of the top questions I\u2019m getting from clients and viewers? How to look put-together and awake\u2014quickly\u2014for video meetings (or just that new cutie you\u2019ve been FaceTiming with nonstop). Video chat is here to stay for a while, so let's talk about a step-by-step way to slay that morning meeting or evening phone date.

It protects the finest to the thickest hair from heat, smoothes flyaways, adds shine and the scent is a proper mood boost. Even better, it\u2019s free from those pesky sulfates, parabens and phthalates. (Yeah, I said phthalates.)

I love the\u00a0tr\u00e8StiQue Brow Definer Pencil and Tint Eyebrow Gel<\/a>\u00a0because it glides on easily and is forgiving enough for even a brow novice. But if you\u2019re in a hurry, skip the pencil and swipe\u00a0 a gel through your brows instead<\/a>.\u00a0If your brows are sparse, the\u00a0 L'Or\u00e9al Brow Stylist Brow Plumper<\/a>\u00a0has tiny fibers that plump up sparse brows and tints your arches all day long.

I love the\u00a0Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser<\/a>\u00a0and recommend it to all my clients. It comes with its own foam applicator and makes dark shadows and puffy eyes magically disappear on camera. It also evens out veiny lids\u2014no eyeshadow or lid primer required. (You can also use it on the tops of the cheekbones to highlight, or blend it down the tip of your nose for an easy reverse contour. Look at you, highlighting away like a YouTube star!)

If you accidentally overslept for a meeting, a good coat of mascara will open up your eyes\u2014especially if you sweep in an up and outward motion. Grande Cosmetics makes a\u00a0conditioning peptide mascara<\/a>\u00a0that made my lashes grow so lovely and strong, I had to break up with my lash extension girl. If you need more drama than just a swipe of mascara,\u00a0 curl your lashes<\/a>\u00a0before applying mascara and consider\u00a0 popping a few of the Ardell Individual Lashes<\/a>\u00a0on the outer corners of the eyes. Individual lashes are more natural looking than a full strip, which can cast a dark shadow under your eyes on a web camera.

But if you want to put on foundation, my longtime go-to is Graftobian\u2019s HD High-Definition Glamour Creme Palette. You may have not heard of Graftobian because it is geared towards professional makeup artists, but I think it is one of the easiest to use for any level. It comes in a palette of five shades with\u00a0cool<\/a>,\u00a0 warm<\/a> and\u00a0 neutral<\/a>\u00a0undertones that can be mixed for a custom color year round, and each shade can also double as a contour or highlight color. Oh, and did I mention it\u2019s under $30? It\u2019s highly pigmented too, so a little goes a long way.
