10 Essential Makeup Products For Beginners You Need

If you are new to make-up and cosmetics, having an idea about what you need and how to use it is the best way to start getting into it. It can be scary at first, thinking how every girl out there seems to be a makeup guru, not to mention all the technical terms, like, what does contouring even mean? If you are new to the make-up world, no need to panic at all. Here is a checklist of the essential makeup products for beginners to rely on.

1. Foundation is a must have

Foundation is the number one makeup essential. It is useful because it helps give an even tone to your skin, as well as covering any scars or pimples. However, if you don’t like using foundation, you could opt for a BB cream or tinted moisturizers instead. If you are an absolute beginner, it’s advisable to learn how to apply foundation in the correct way because who wants to walk around with embarrassing foundation line?

2. Concealer matches foundation

Concealers help you to get rid of any blemished you may have on your skin. It is important because on a very tired day, concealer could be your only saver as it awakens under eyes and fades any acne.

3.Blush/Bronzer Duo

If you are a beginner in the world of make-up and you really can’t figure out the difference between blush and bronzer, not stress over it. A blush and bronzer duo is the solution to all your doubts. These are a great essential for your makeup organizer, as they always add a touch of colour to both simple and extra make-up.

4. Pencils pencils and more pencils

Pencils are an absolute must. Every girl needs them, even the beginners. When it comes to make-up, eye pencils, lip pencils and brow pencils are essentials that you need to have in your make-up bag.  Lip pencils are great to define your lip lines and pre-colour your lips before applying a lipstick. They also create the matt/velvet effect if you don’t own a matt lipstick.

5. Primer is your best friend

Primers are also essentials that you absolutely need in your make-up bags, even for beginners. Every make-up, from the most natural day look to the most extra make-up for a night out or an important event, primers are the starters. You can apply it on all your face or in interested areas such as eyes before applying eyeshadows .

6. Eyeshadow palettes

What is a make-up organizer without one or more eyeshadow palettes? For a beginner, one palette should be enough, as long as it has all colours, from nude to dark tones all included. You will be surprised about how expert you will become when experimenting with the colours in your palette.

7. Don’t forget Mascara

Mascara is just an absolute gem. No girl can manage without mascara and no make-up is finished up without it

8. A Brow kit is essential

You aint going nowhere without brow pencils, tints or brushes. No matter how good your brows are, you will always need to retouch them so, again, absolute must among your other make-up tools.

9. A good brush kit

one great tip for makeup products for beginners would be to have good brushes! No more applying make-up with your hands, Girls! You need to take the next step and start using the appropriate tools. Make-up brushes come in many shapes and sizes, depending on what they are to be used for. Choose the thin ones for eyes and lips, whiles the bigger and softer ones are good for applying foundation and finishing off your looks with blush or powder .

10. Lipsticks are needed

If you are really looking for makeup products for beginners you can try and choose nude lipsticks, as they are always good for both daytime make-up and night out looks.
