Makeup Starter Kit


If you want to start with makeup, it can be quite tricky deciding what products to use and where to start. Here are a couple of  products to get you started.

1. Concealer

If you are just starting out with makeup, I wouldn't recommend going straight in with foundation until you feel ready. Concealer is good because it will give you a natural look whilst covering spots and blemishes.You can either get a concealer stick or liquid concealer, personally I prefer the liquid concealers as I feel they blend into your skin well and give better coverage. However, you will have to find what works best for you. 
Some concealers I would recommend are; Collection Lasting Perfection (£4.19) and Rimmel Wake Me Up (£5.49).

2. Mascara 

Mascara is a really easy product to use and works well with both natural and more edgy looks. Mascara can be quite expensive, but you can also get some cheaper products that work just as well.
Mascaras I would recommend: Collection No Clumps (£2.99) and Maybelline Volume Express Colossal Cat Eyes (£7.99).

3. Eyeshadow

Eyeshadow is a great makeup product to start with as you can create lots of different styles and you can decide on colours that suit you best. It is so versatile and their are some great eyeshadow palettes to choose from. You can choose from a number of types of palettes such as a nude palette or a brighter one, its up to you to decide which one you prefer.
Eyeshadow palettes I would recommend; Makeup Revolution Flawless (£8.00) and Bourjois Little Round Pot (£6.99)

4. Lipgloss

It is your personal preference to whether you prefer using lipstick or lipgloss, however lipgloss is much easier to apply for a beginner. If you go slightly over your lip line by accident, it won't be as prominent compared to a lipstick, unless of course you are going for the Miranda Sings look ;) 
Lipglosses I would recommend; Tanya Burr Lipgloss (£6.99) and Barry M (£4.49).
