What is ‘Office Air’? Experts explain how your workplace can impact your appearance

Lucy ContrinoBy Lucy Contrino09/06/20253 Mins Read

A recent phenomenon ‘office air’ has gained traction on TikTok through multiple videos from office workers going viral. This came as an extension of the ‘boyfriend air’ trend which opens up a discussion about how our external environment can affect our appearance. 

There has been growing conversation around many employers enforcing return-to-office mandates. A recent study by KPMG found that more than four-fifths (83%) of CEOs expect to see a full return to office within three years. Meaning that’s likely that we will be spending more time in the office. 

The ‘office air’ trend has led TikTok creators to share their experiences of looking less presentable by the end of the working day, attributing it to factors like air conditioning and indoor climate control. One creator commented on a viral video by @morgmiles14 saying ‘Ok can someone explain why this happens?! When I work from home I look fine by the end of the day,when I go into the office I look terrible after 3-4 hours’.

Career experts resume.io have broken down the concept of ‘office air’ and offered advice on how it can be avoided.

Amanda Augustine, career expert at resume.io comments, “The viral ‘office air’ trend on TikTok comments on how office environments can subtly affect not only employees’ physical appearance, but also their wellbeing, confidence and productivity throughout the workday. Many office workers on the app say they feel ‘less fresh’ by the afternoon as their surroundings take a toll on both their hair and skin.”

Resume.io enlisted the help of Nadia Iopel, Beauty Expert at iBEAUTY CODE who has highlighted the impact that ‘office air’ can have on our skin and hair and offers ways to prevent it, “Prolonged exposure to office air conditioning and artificial lighting can seriously affect skin hydration and texture. As they say, air conditioning systems dehumidify air; thus, transepidermal water loss rises, which in turn makes skin tight, dry, and flaky. Such dehydration, as a result, deteriorates the barrier of the skin, which thereafter may get irritated, develop redness, or even sensitivities.

“A great hack is what many call the “moisture sandwich”: applying mist before sealing hydration in with a moisturizer keeps skin looking plump all day. Another tip would be to keep a green tea bag at your desk-if your skin starts to look tired, press a cooled tea bag under your eyes to reduce puffiness, thanks to the natural antioxidants and caffeine content in it.

“Office environments also can be harmful to maintaining good hair health, because it might enhance dryness, breakage, or dullness. Lack of moisture in the air lifts the hair cuticles, causing frizz and making strands more prone to breakage. Color-treated or chemically processed hair may become even more brittle, as dehydrated hair lacks elasticity. A great way to maintain hair from becoming dry and building up static would be to use a leave-in conditioner or nourishing hair oil on your ends in the morning.”

Amanda Augustine, career expert at resume.io continues, “The ‘office air’ trend on TikTok highlights a real concern about workplace environments affecting not just appearance, but also employee confidence and well-being. Factors such as excessive air conditioning or heating, artificial lighting, lack of natural sunlight, poor ventilation and prolonged screen time can lead to dry skin, hair issues, and fatigue—all of which can negatively impact both employee productivity, engagement and morale. While it may seem like a lighthearted social media trend, it highlights the importance of workplace wellness. Employers should note that creating a comfortable, well-ventilated office space can encourage a healthier and more engaged workforce.”
