Makeup Kit Guide for Beginners 

The makeup world can be pretty exciting, but if you are just a beginner witnessing all kinds of makeup products, the experience can be pretty overwhelming.

That is why we have decided to create a guide to help you put together your first makeup kit with all the essentials you need in your arsenal today.

Face Primer

A makeup kit must-have is face primer, a product responsible for helping you create a smooth and even base on your face so that you can apply makeup easily. They also work to improve the longevity of your makeup and ensure that any of the makeup products you have used do not smudge, budge, or fade away throughout the day.

Foundation

Once the canvas is ready, you must prepare a flawless complexion with foundation. Beginners use a foundation with medium to buildable coverage that can be used for both a natural look and a full-coverage look.

Concealer

This is usually used when your complexion needs a little uplifting—an extra hand to help cover your blemishes and under-eye circles. It also helps eliminate pesky spots that often appear on the skin.

Blush

 Blushes are essential tools for restoring color to one’s face.Once your base-layer makeup is done and you have all the right products on your face, it can still make your face look dull and flat. However, applying blush to the apples of your cheeks can give your cheeks a natural-looking flush and improve your complexion.

Contour

The next step allows you to add more depth and dimension to your face. A contour creates shadows and efficiently carves out your facial features. Contour sticks are a must-have makeup product in every beginner’s makeup kit. It gives you a lot of control over how much product you use, and the creamy contour sticks are easy to blend and perfect for creating soft, subtle looks.
