Sounds good Ben. Throw on some eyeliner and why not a bra and panties? Maybe just a half slip and dressing gown for around the house.

I feel pretty,
Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright!
And I pity
Any girl who isn’t me tonight.

I feel charming,
Oh, so charming
It’s alarming how charming I feel!
And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I’m real.

My department of ~400 people all work from home.
Several hours of teleconferencing daily.
No video. For >4 years.

I didn’t even know what my own boss looked like for 2 years.
I didn’t know what _any_ of my co-workers looked like for 2 years. Our first in-person department gathering was a hysterical discovery of strange faces and familiar voices.

Video brings little value to teleconferencing.
The “manly” solution to looking bad on video calls is to put opaque tape over the camera.

Men are turning to makeup during COVID after one-too-many Zoom calls

Hardley "men" and hopefully not a real thing.

Just like taking a moment to make sure your tie is straight, your belt line proper and shoes not dusty, it is foolish not to look proper on camera.

I go into make-up session before every zoom meeting. It is a whole different game with these high resolution cameras and lighting involved.

Had a zoom call last week at 10:00am with our it department. My boss was sipping on his large coffee cup. Then he grabs a shot glass and hides it behind the cup. Does a shot. 2 minutes later he does another shot but forgets the coffee cup. Nobody said a word. lol

Lighting and camera angle are key....NOT makeup.

Fortunately, my Zoom meetings are few and far between. Everyone on them already knows what I look like in person, and have already seen the wrinkles and age spots and scars and the gray in my hair and beard, all of which I have earned during the considerable number of years I have walked on this planet. On the rare occasions that I am on Zoom with people who haven’t had the close-up experience of the real me, it doesn’t really matter because in the line of work I do, what’s inside one’s head matters more than what’s on the surface.

With the correct eyeliner and blush he could be as pretty as Catlyn Jenner.

Knowing how the camera maximizes ever facial flaw, pore size, bags, skin that will look oily, and discoloration, I don’t have a problem with salesmen resorting to foundation for cover. All actors, newsmen, etc. use it, and more. Looks still matter, even with men, and if you’re trying to land a $$$ deal via Zoom, I can’t blame the guys for wanting to look their best.
