What makeup should you wear on webcam for a webinar or virtual class?

I’m not exactly the dress up and primp myself type, but that’s not the point of wearing makeup if you’re going to be in front of a webcam during a webinar, webcast, or virtual class.

In this 2 1/2 minute video I cover:

Never realized how important this was until I spoke at our church… those guys don’t miss around! I looked at them like, “WHOA! What are you doing to me??” Haha. Great stuff as always, Roger.

“….I can add 10lbs on my own!” Roger you are awesome! I love this tip. I do a lot of video meetings and have only just talking long enough to wonder how frightening that giant, shiny forehead must be to those in the room! I’m going to chase down some of this makeup for sure!

Video seems private now – is that intentional? Thanks!

  Hey Marjolein and everyone else:
  
  I’m in the process of migrating a Google Plus identity, and it’s messing with YouTube. It works sometimes, and it doesn’t work sometimes. If for some reason you landed here from an email, the video above should be working. Alternatively you can watch it here.
  
  Thanks!

Hi Roger,
I remember watching this video and would like to get the name of the powder you used. I believe it was from Sephora, but I’m having trouble finding it online and cannot re-watch the video due to it now being private.

Any information on the product is appreciated. Thanks, your videos are very helpful!
