"See how I keep my makeup office-appropriate but glam at the same time." Test-drive new makeup looks in our free makeover tool.
Laurie Larrinaga, 24
Laurie's beauty stats: Dry-normal skin; brown eyes. Beauty vice: Sleeping with makeup on. Beauty addictions: Mascara and moisturizer.
"I work in an office where it's a mixture of corporate and casual. Our appearance must always be professional as we have clients come in on a regular basis. Due to my love of makeup, I still try to add some glamour to my everyday look — while staying natural and professional. Here are the cosmetics I use for an easy office look."
Avon Solutions Plus+ Total Radiance Thermal Cleanser
"I start my beauty regimen everyday by washing my face with this cleanser. It heats up immediately and opens up my pores while polishing off dead skin cells. It leaves my face refreshed and smooth."

Avon Solutions a.m. Maximum Moisture Day Cream SPF 15
"Right after I wash my face, I use this ultra-hydrating, nongreasy moisturizer. This cream protects with SPF 15, but also has a moisturizing cosmetic ingredient that activates when I step into the sunlight."

Urban Decay 24/7 Concealer
"To hide the dark circles that plague my face, I dot this concealer pencil under my eyes and on my eyelids to double as an eye shadow primer. The creamy formula glides on smoothly and blends so easily! An added bonus is that it is enriched with vitamin E and has ingredients to absorb oil. I chose the lightest shade, CIA, for my fair skin, so it not only conceals, but it also brightens my under-eye area."

bareMinerals SPF 15 Matte Foundation
"My favorite foundation of all time has to be bareMinerals. This lightweight yet full-coverage foundation never feels caked-on or greasy, and it lasts all day. I swirl and tap the brush into the container, then buff it into my skin. Within a few seconds, my face has an even tone, and it looks as if it was airbrushed."

NARS Bronzer in Laguna
"To achieve a natural sun-kissed look without going to the beach, I use this bronzer. I use it to give me an added glow and also to contour my cheekbones."

CoverGirl Exact EyeLights
"Mascara is one of the staple items that I never leave home without. I love this particular one from CoverGirl that is designed especially to brighten the whites of my brown eyes. I swipe on two coats, and I'm all set to go!"

M.A.C. Lipstick in High Tea
"To finish off my look, I use a neutral lipstick like this one from M.A.C. This color is subtle enough for the office and also perfect to balance out my face when I go out after work and need to dramatize my eyes."
