Tom Ford's tips for looking good on a video call

*boss

I don’t think my bos cares about what I look like just what’s me to work. Haha

I occasionally use Zoom or Skype but not for work-related purposes.

Some great tips.

This was very helpful but luckily I don't have to worry too much about it.

I meet with a group weekly on zoom and we try and be as if we are meeting in person. I'm getting more used to it but I will be glad when this virus thing is over.

Way too much effort needed for this!!! If you don't like me in my pjs and hair not brushed, then too bad!!! ha ha!!!

I'm not doing any video calls, but this is good information to have :)

I think most of us are now complacent and getting used to a no make up day, especially if you are not going anywhere, just angle the camera so it doesn't look up your nose.

Haven't yet done any video calls

Why can't we just go makeup free?

I don't do video calls, but this is great technical info. I've favourited this page, for future reference. I've been on the phone & Messenger a lot more than usual.

I hate video calls but I usually put on some bb cream and blush. Otherwise I would look like the walking dead.

I'm still getting used to wfh. My job involves lots of answering phones and some difficult customers, so I don't like bringing that stressful negative energy into my home.

I love looking my daggiest on our weekly zoom catch ups - at least I don't have kids or pets to battle with! My laptop's on my ironing board and I'm sitting on the end of my bed - our house has 4 of us working from home!

I just put a little bit of mineral powder on before I have a meeting just to even out my complexion, and hair is up in a bun, but to be honest, my team don't really care what we all look like lol

Gosh I dread those video calls/classes but these are some great tips, especially the camera being above you a little!

Thank you so much for the advice! As a woman in her 50's, I haven't had much practice in Zoom meetings, and I was disappointed at how haggard I looked onscreen. Thought it was makeup, too little/ too much? But these tips will definitely improve my onscreen appearance

Some really useful tips!

LOL I love this! Some practical and handy advice for all of those virtual meetings and sessions that we have to be a part of in the current world.

Good to know if i ever have to do this

Great tips at this time!

I don't do video calls, although I suppose I should learn how to do this because it is a common way of communicating these days.

Work video conference is the new way to go. I just make sure I have a decent tshirt on and I brush my hair.

I don't have to worry about video conferencing for work.

The only camera I've been near lately was on Monday when we did a Skype family group for my dad's 92nd birthday. Luckily my sister lives next door to him in Queensland so she made the birthday lunch and we all joined in from all over Australia. I don't think any of us really cared what we looked liked as long as we could join the party. Children, grandchildren and great grandchildren joined the link.
