Using makeup for the first time can be overwhelming. However, buying and using makeup doesn’t have to be difficult. You need to remember that the first time does not have to be perfect. You can use makeup sparingly and still enhance your beauty.
The first step is to make sure that you shop for all the makeup you might need. Makeup products and tools are the basic things that you need to start your beauty and makeup journey. Here are some tips for beginners:
Choose the Right Foundation
Foundation is one of the basic beauty products that everyone needs to own. There are various foundation shades, and it is important to choose one that matches your skin tone. Most of the makeup brands will give you a guide on how to choose the right shade for your skin.
There are also different types of foundation like stick foundation, liquid, and powder. It all depends on your preference and sensitivity to the product. Make sure to go for a brand or type that will sustain the health of your skin. Liquid and powder foundation is easy to use compared to stick foundation.
Mascara and Eyeliner
Makeup is never complete if you do not use eyeliner and mascara. The role of eyeliner is to give your eyes dimension and achieve the look that you want. You can use liquid eyeliner, gel or pencil eyeliner. It all depends on the type that is comfortable to use. Liquid and gel eyeliner give a lot of definition, but they can be messy for beginners. Mascara will also help in making your eyelashes look thick and beautiful.
Lipstick
Lipstick is a basic makeup product and people who do not use any other type of products still use lipstick. Today we have different types of lipstick and color shades to choose from. We have matte liquid lipsticks that are long-lasting, and we have the normal, oily lipsticks. Oily lipsticks are not long-lasting, but they keep your lips moist at all times. If you have dry lips, then this is a good option for you.
Setting Powder
After using foundation and concealer in case you have problem areas on your skin, it is advisable to have a good setting powder to set your makeup.
The role of a setting powder is to make sure that everything looks decent. After using setting powder, you can go ahead and use a setting spray. When you use a setting powder and spray, your makeup will not drip all over the place.
