In this difficult and stressful time, we’ll basically take any moment or humor we can get. We also need to connect with others even if we’re apart, which is why Zoom has blown up in recent weeks. The video conferencing service has quickly swept both businesses (hello, Zoom meetings) and friend groups alike (virtual Happy Hour!). You can even put a background on yourself to make the whole thing a lot more fun. We found 10 Zoom backgrounds beauty lovers will go crazy for, some you can steal right now and some ideas for your own DIY project.
Some might prefer to choose a funny background, like stacks of toilet paper or scenes from The Office. Others can’t get enough of everything Tiger King. But for us beauty obsessives, we’re dreaming about our next Sephora or Ulta trip, imagining all the ways we can organize of beauty stash and swatching every bright eyeshadow available. You can pretend these are all happening when you have a virtual brunch with your friends.
How do you get these backgrounds? Well, the first thing you have to do is enable Virtual Background in your account settings. (It’s on the meeting tab.) Then when you enter or create a Zoom meeting, there will be an option to add a Virtual Background. You can choose one of the many stock options (cities, landscapes, etc.) or press the plus sign to add your own. Make sure your photo is a bit higher resolution so when it stretches, the background doesn’t look totally grainy. Ta-da!
