FACE PRIMER
A makeup must have, face primers help you create a smooth and even base so you can apply
your face makeup products with ease. Makeup primers also improve the longevity of your makeup
and ensure that the different beauty products you apply on top do not budge, smudge, or fade away
throughout the day. From dewy primers that add a natural looking glow to your skin to colour
correcting primers that cancel out redness, there are a lot of different primers for you to choose from
depending on your skin type and needs.
2. LIQUID FOUNDATION
Now that your canvas is ready, it is time to get a flawless, even complexion with foundation. As a
beginner, use a foundation with medium to buildable coverage that you can use for both, an
everyday, natural finish as well as a full-coverage look. If you have never used this must-have
beauty product before, here is a Complete Foundation Makeup Guide that will teach you all there is
to learn about this makeup kit essential.
3. CONCEALER
On days when your complexion needs an extra helping hand and you need to cover your blemishes
and undereye circles, use a concealer to erase these pesky spots with ease. Look for a lightweight
formula that does not feel thick and greasy on your skin and read this handy guide to understand
How To Apply Concealer correctly.
4. SETTING POWDER
To avoid looking like a shiny disco ball by the end of the day, you need to set your face makeup
products with a pressed powder. Loose powders are great for achieving a blurred, airbrushed look
but can get messy when used incorrectly, which is why we recommend adding a pressed or compact
powder to your makeup kit. Before going in with the setting powder, be sure to read the step by step
guide and learn How To Apply Setting Powder so your base makeup does not look cakey.

5. BLUSH
Another must have makeup product, blushes are essential for adding colour back to your face. After

of your cheek gives a natural looking flush to your skin and enhances your complexion. Never used
this beauty product before? Don’t worry, we got you covered – Here is the Best Way To
Apply Blush For Your Face Shape. When creating a customized makeup kit, we recommend
investing in a blush palette so you can experiment with different shades and mix and match colours

6. CONTOUR
The next step in bringing some depth and dimension to your face is by using a contour to create
shadows and carve out your facial features. Contour sticks are a must have makeup product for
beginners as it gives you more control over how much product you are applying on your face.
Creamy contour sticks are also easy to blend and are perfect for creating soft and subtle makeup
looks. Learn How To Contour for different face shapes by reading our step by step contour makeup

and voluminous lashes that look like falsies, every eye makeup look is incomplete without mascara.

wear and a bold liquid lipstick for when you are feeling fancy.
