FOTD: Bold Lips at the Workplace

Greetings from the Dark Side ^_^

Here's another workplace FOTD (hint: I've been working a lot lately!). Most jobs require you to have very conservative attire and makeup, but I noticed that many women in my workplace tend to wear very bold lip colors. However, if they do wear bold lip colors, they will always wear very muted eye makeup. I have worn bold lip colors like this in the past: very bold lips and very subtle eyes/cheeks. I decided to try this at work today and it worked very well, particularly because I wear glasses at work. I used Wet n Wild Fergie 'Ferguson Crest Cabernet' lipstick with only mascara on my eyes.


                                                                         Products Used                                                                 
-Wet n Wild MegaPlump mascara
-DreamWorld Hermetica Foundation 'Tiamet III C' Mineral Foundation
-Wet n Wild MegaGlow 'Catwalk Pink'
-Wet n Wild Fergie 'Ferguson Crest Cabernet' lipstick


For all of you who have conservative jobs, would you wear this to work? Or is it too much? On another note, this Wet n Wild shade is perfect for Fall/Winter!

  2. I work in a legal office and wear red, plum, or vivid pinks on a daily basis. My go to is red no matter the season. I work in a very corporate office but I honestly don't see the harm in wearing bold lipstick. Then again I wear tights with prints with a lot of my dresses...so I'm the black sheep of the firm!

    1. Haha, nice! I suppose it depends where you work. Some bosses/supervisors are more uptight than others. But really good for you! I love it when people break the rules ever so slightly :D

  3. I'm the bold-lips-in-the-office lady! I look a little crazy if I do bold color on the eyes but any sassy chick can rock a bold lip and still look professional :D

    1. I get that. I worked in a farmer's marker a few years ago and I don't think I would have ever work a bold lip color there.

  8. I think with the right shade of red, bold lipstick can be very office appropriate. This look is very pretty and professional to my eye. I either goes with neutral eyes and bolder lipstick or the opposite if I actually bother to put on makeup for the office.

      I agree with you. I will wear something like this if I'm in the mood. Sometimes I just want to do the bare minimum xD
