What makeup do you wear to work?

What kind of makeup do you usually wear to work in a more FORMAL setting (like in an office). This doesn't apply if you work in a relaxed setting where you can wear whatever you want and bright colours, I think. I'd like to get some more recommendations based on what other people usually wear.
I work at an Embassy and I have to look fairly neat and propper at the office, so I can't wear any outrageous things, also makeup-wise. This is what I usually wear:
- Matte or semi-matte foundation, or when I'm lazy or don't want to wear heavy foundation I just use my Studio Fix powder as a base with concealer under the eyes.
- Eyeshadows: Paint in Untitled as a base, then a choice of Woodwinked, Shu Uemura Me Gold & Me Brown, Jest, Mulch, or Coppering (lightly) e/s, mascara & eyebrow wax/powder. Usually I just wear 1 colour because I don't have time to do a really elaborate 2 or 3 toned eye because I have to get up really early (6:30am).
- Lips: Usually switch between something sheer, like Boots Sweet Temptations lipstick in Tempt #15, or today I just wore really neutral eyes and went for a red lipstick. I don't usually wear really glossy lipgloss because I think it looks too "young".
- Blush: Nars Orgasm, MAC Pink Swoon or Blushbaby
- Sometimes I've worn Shimpagne MSF lightly as a highlighter (not too much) but it doesn't work so well with the Studio Fix powder because it's so matte.
