When it comes to makeup, less is often more. If you're new to the world of cosmetics or simply prefer a minimalist approach, it's essential to choose versatile products that can effortlessly enhance your natural features. In this blog post, I'll introduce you to seven makeup essentials that every minimalist beginner should have in their collection. These products will help you achieve a fresh and polished look without overwhelming your routine or cluttering your makeup bag.
1. Tinted Moisturizer or CC Cream:
Say goodbye to heavy foundations and embrace a lightweight alternative like tinted moisturizer or CC cream. These multi-tasking products provide hydration, sheer coverage, and often come with added benefits like SPF protection. They even out your skin tone while allowing your natural beauty to shine through, making them perfect for everyday wear.
2. Mascara:
Enhance your lashes with a swipe of mascara. Mascara instantly opens up your eyes and adds definition to your look. Opt for a formula that lengthens and separates without clumping. A versatile black mascara will complement any eye color and give you a wide-eyed, awake appearance.
3. Cream Lip & Blush tint:
For a natural flush of color, cream blush is your go-to product. Cream is easy to apply and can be used in different ways especially using as a lip color. That takes the guess work out of deciding on a lip color. Gently dab the product onto the apples of your cheeks and blend upward into your temple for a youthful and fresh look. Add a dab onto your lips too!
4. Liquid Eyeshadow:
Liquid eyeshadow may sound intimidating but it is one of the easiest ways to add some flare to your eyes without pulling out a brush or palette. Most of them come with an applicator wand so it makes the creamy blend-able formula easy to blend. Simply blend with your finger tips.
5. Blend-able Concealer:
I recommend beginners start with a lightweight and buildable concealer for the under eye area and to cover spots. Concealer can also be used for highlight and contour was you grow your makeup skills. Definitely a staple!
6. Lightweight Powder:
Whether you prefer pressed or loose powder you’ll need a good powder to help you keep your cc cream
and concealer in place. Choose from translucent or skin-tone powder. It’s a must because it puts the finishing touch to any makeup look.
7. Reliable Brow Pencil:
A defined brow is everything to any makeup look! Find a pencil that closely matches your natural brow hairs.
Building a makeup collection as a beginner doesn't have to be overwhelming. By focusing on these seven essential products - tinted moisturizer or CC cream, mascara, cream blush, liquid eyeshadow, cream blush/lip tint, and brow pencil - you'll have everything you need to achieve a fresh and polished look.
