How to build a makeup kit for beginners

Here’s how you can build a beginner-friendly makeup kit:

1: Understand your skin type (dry, oily, combination) and undertone (warm, cool, neutral) to choose products that complement your perfectly. Visiting a beauty store or consulting with a makeup artist can help you determine your skin type and undertone.

2: Now let’s start building the ultimate makeup kit. We start with a base that consists of foundation/BB cream, concealer, and powder.

3: Foundations come in a variety of formulas, ranging from light to full coverage. Select according to your needs and personal preferences. A lightweight skin tint layered with concealer for correction is perfect for daily use. Finally, setting everything with powder helps makeup last all day.

4: Moving to cheeks, a blush is perfect for that rosy flush. You can experiment with different shades to see what you like. A bronzer and highlighter, however not a must, add warmth and glow to your look.

5: Eyes are super important to your overall look. Starting with brows, use a brow pencil or powder to fill in your brows and top it with a clear gel to set them in place. Investing in a good versatile eyeshadow palette can make it handy for daily looks as well as occasions that require a good glam up. Finish your eye look with eyeliner and or mascara.

6: The lip category is extremely vast and personalised. There are lip balms, stains, liners, lipsticks, liquid lipsticks, and glosses. Experiment to find your go-to staples.

7: Additional products include a set of standard brushes and tools like beauty sponges and eyelash curlers, makeup removers, and lastly, a place to store everything safely.

Some tips that can help you build a beginner-friendly makeup kit

1: Decide how much you're willing to invest in a makeup kit. Makeup products vary widely in price, a budget helps you make choices accordingly.

2: Identify your makeup goals and understand your skin tone, type, and undertones before investing in products to avoid wasting money. Research or consult beauty professionals and be mindful of any allergies and sensitivity as well!

3: Investing in good quality products goes a long way. Whether it’s makeup or brushes. These create a huge difference in the application.

4: Start with a basic makeup kit and expand as you go. Sampling can help you understand whether you like a product or if it will even work for you. Buy travel sizes to test the products before investing in the full size.

5: Practice makes you perfect. Experimenting with makeup will help you figure out what works and what looks good on you.
