With face coverings now becoming an everyday part of life, Stagecoach, UK bus and coach operator, has teamed up with makeup influencer Lucy Hart (@hartyyy on Instagram) to create a video showing customers how to keep their makeup in top shape whilst wearing a face covering.
Face coverings are now mandatory on all public transport in England including all Stagecoach bus services, and from 24 July, must be worn in shops and supermarkets.
Stagecoach has worked with @hartyyy to create a tutorial to show audiences how best to do their makeup so that it stays on while taking your face covering on and off. In the video, Lucy Hart, a Manchester-based influencer and head artist at the Gypsie Shrine, does her makeup and then travels on a Stagecoach bus to Manchester to meet up with a friend. The video contains hints and tips on how to ensure your foundation and lipstick doesn’t smear over your face covering and stays in tact during a long day of shopping, eating and drinking.
Catherine Acton-Brazier, Regional Director North for Stagecoach, said “We know that people will want to look their best though, particularly for that important first selfie in the bar, coffee shop or shop, and with face coverings now becoming part of our normal everyday life, we wanted to give people a helping hand with that.
Lucy added: “I know many people have been feeling anxious about going back to everyday tasks, such as catching public transport. So it’s important to show that masks are easy and comfortable to wear and everyone’s doing it for safety and respect to others.
“It’s also important to get your makeup techniques down to ensure you know all the hacks to help it stay put."
