So I start my first day of clinical tomorrow for my nursing class and I'm super excited. It's at a nursing home so I don't need tons of makeup but what could I do to look cute? I take my road test after so that's why I'm asking 😩(tips for that would be helpful too I'm so nervous) my scrubs look red in this picture but they're actually a deep pink/ raspberry color. Thanks!

So, I know this probably isn't what you want to hear, but for clinical, I'd be more worried about doing everything right and getting the experience than the makeup. If you feel like you MUST wear makeup, I'd suggest going really light and just tightlining with mascara, and a tinted lip balm if you want some color. All of the nursing students I know basically don't have any time at all to make themselves cute...it's more like sleep/look good/pass...pick any two. you know? I'm sure no one will care how you look =)

Define the lash-line with smudged brown liner, brighten the inner corner with nude eyeliner and apply to waterline, light blush, define das brows! That is cute and simple! Pretty quick too!

Yes, I agree with Hannah! Lighter the better. Mascara , nude liner , and lip balm maybe some blush, quick easy, simple and cute like you said!

@Hannah it's not so much the makeup for clinical I'm worried for but the makeup for the road test since everybody will want pictures if I pass! I have to take it in my scrubs since I don't have time to change. It's my second year of nursing (only a cna and HHA course since I'm 17) so I've had a lot of previous clinical experience. Thank you for the advice though :)

Ahhh okay that makes much more sense! Well yeah I'd still say simple but pretty for the test, don't spend too much time worrying about it because the test is still so much more important =)
