10 Makeup Products Every College Freshman Needs

We all know that waking up early to do our makeup just to go to class isn’t really a thing. Honestly, who even has time for that anymore? It’s a struggle to even get up on time to go to class. But when we have to do our makeup- like for a presentation, a date, or even formal- here are some essentials. These are the makeup products every college freshman needs!!

  

1. Foundation

Whether its just a powder foundation or a liquid, this is a one-and-done type of product that everyone needs.

2. Concealer

For when you have that pimple or those dark under eye circles that your foundation just doesn’t cover.

3. Foundation Powder

Either for more coverage over your liquid foundation or just because you’re running very late to your class on the other side of campus but you still want to look like you didn’t just rise from the dead.

4. Eyebrow Pencil

Bold brows are so trendy but honestly only 2% of people naturally have brows that nice- so this is something for the rest of us.

5. Eye Shadow

A basic eye shadow palette is the only thing you need to take that basic day look to a look that screams “I put effort in today!”

6. Eyeliner

Winged liner has become so popular over the past few years, but even most people who can’t figure out how to accomplish such a task can still do decent regular liner.

7. Mascara

A must have- especially for those of us who don’t have lash extensions and don’t wear falsies often.

8. Bronzer

Easiest and fastest way to looker tanner than you actually are. Also very useful for contouring.

9. Highlighter

One of my favorite trends- whether its a subtle sheen or an extraterrestrial glow, this is something that’s flattering on everyone.

10. Lipstick

From a creamy nude to a satiny pink or matte plum color- there’s endless options to step up your makeup game.

Ultimately, makeup has no rules so do you and have fun!
