Hello, ladies. Do you feel the pressure to look on-point every day? I definitely do, but it's so unlike me to have the motivation to care about this. The only thing that makes me feel the need to do so is the rest of the folks in the office. Do you do your hair and makeup every single day for work? Please share how you do it in a way that doesn't make you lose about 30 mins of your time in the morning!

I put my clothes out the day before and it helps me save so much time in the morning. Only makeup is lipstick (that wears off in 2h) and some cheek/ lip stain. I love jewellery so I usually wear earrings / a necklace and I feel that makes me feel dressed up enough.

My biggest issue is my curly hair that tends to be super unpredictable. Can't fix everything, OP!

Absolutely not me. I just deal with the fact that people are gonna think I'm not a very good-looking person, which I can totally live with. I do like to stun people on certain ocassions and I truly enjoy that more than being a good-looking entity every day of my life at work, I don't have the time or motivation for that.

I would say as long as you look confident in yourself, put together for a workplace and not disheveled, it should be fine. That could just mean combing through your hair, fresh looking face, clean outfit and no body odor; maybe tinge of mascara and lip oil. You don't have to walk into the office everyday with styled hair, color corrected under eyes, and smooth even-toned skin that requires 10 skincare steps. This is from a consultant who has worked in very different client cultures.
