This is everything I keep in my basic makeup collection and cannot live without. It ranges from drugstore finds to Sephora splurges, hopefully this will help you or at least give you some inspiration.
All Over Primer - so your makeup stays in place all day
An Essential Brushes Pack - usually available at places like Sephora or Ulta but if you want it cheap Claire's or your local drugstore might have something, also make sure it has a blending brush!!
Foam Sponges - unless you have a Beauty Blender or the cash for one these are great for liquid foundation
A Matching Liquid Foundation and Powder - if you go to a drug store most brands there sell them with the same "number" so it's easy to buy them
A Concealer - You definitely wanna get one with brown undertones not yellow or pink they make your dark circles look green
Eyeshadow - there's cream, liquid, powder it's really up to you which one you want and what colors you want to experiment with, but like I said if you're going to a drugstore you can usually buy little sets that can even be specific to your eye color
Eyeliner - again many variations, it's really up to you but if it's your first time I'd recommend a brown or black pencil with a smudger on the end
Mascara - SO MANY CHOICES!!! It's based on what you're looking for and what brush or color you want I'd start out with a dark black color and an easy to handle brush
False Eyelashes - this is really up to you, if you want them and it's your first time look around for what you want or may like and then to put them on read the instructions and maybe look up some youtube videos they can be quite tricky
Blush - find a good blush that compliments your skin tone but if you accidentally buy too dark you can just lightly press then put it on and see if it's any better if not you can try putting some powder over it
Lip Gloss - now you can get any color you choose to try, but I find a good clear or sparkle can always be a life saver
Lipstick - Again any color you may enjoy to try, but finding a good nude and matte red will always finish off your look perfectly
I hope everyone enjoyed this post and be sure to stay tuned for my next post.
