While everyone is busy making lists, cooking or going to Friendsgiving parties, I on the other hand, am sharing some basic old school makeup goodness for today. I used to be active in forums, particularly in Reddit, (Have you guys been active on that site/app? ) and I discovered that quite a few people are just beginning their journey in makeup.
Now I am not a makeup artist, more of a makeup-loving-slash-hoarding-slash-cakeface girl okay you get it. But I do know that you don’t need 20+ items to create your basic makeup starter kit, nor do you need a lot of dough to acheive it. The drugstore is a great place for makeup beginners and I’m sharing all my secrets in today’s post.
The first video below is about the basic makeup items that are absolutely necessary and when I mean basic, I mean the bare minimum. This video is not how to be a professional makeup artist, but instead what makeup should you buy when you have absolutely no idea on how to start. Watch the video below! 🤗💄
The second video is all about the tools you need to create a basic full face of makeup. Again all of these items are in the drugstore and are very simple items that would not break the bank! Both of these videos are perfect for students, young professionals, girls and guys and just anyone who wants to start applying makeup. Watch the Makeup Tools for Beginners video below! 😊
I did not always love makeup like I do today. I used to have acne in high school and could not wear a lot of products as most would instantly make my skin breakout. I was self-conscious, depressed and did not feel good about myself. When I discovered wearing makeup when my skin was a bit better (and I was a bit older) it really changed my life. A little concealer, powder and lipstick can make such a huge difference in someone’s day. I hope it does the same for you as it did on mine!
Let me know what you guys use for your everyday makeup routine, your basic makeup products and tools on the comments below! I’d love to try them! 😉
