7 Makeup Essentials For Beginners And How To Use Them In The Right Order

The world of makeup is interesting but for beginners, it might be a daunting task to choose the right product to kick-start their makeup journey. Additionally, even after having makeup products, most beginners struggle to use them in the right order. Considering the struggle, we have listed down some of the makeup essentials that you should have as a beginner.

7 Makeup Essentials For Beginners

Here are the makeup essentials you will need as a beginner:

Moisturiser

Moisturiser is a basic skincare product that you need to have in your collection to kickstart the makeup on the right base. Moisturiser acts as a base and prevents the skin from drying. I use PAC Cosmetics Aqua Blast Moisturiser to nourish my skin before I begin my makeup. It is lightweight yet deeply hydrating, leaving my skin plump and primed.

Face Primer

Next is the face primer. A face primer creates an even base that makes the application of the makeup products easier. Additionally, primers improve the longevity of the makeup and ensure that the different makeup products you apply do not smudge or fade away.

Concealer

Concealer is another essential makeup product you need to have in your collection. It improves the complexion by covering dark spots and blemishes. You can opt for any lightweight formula that does not feel greasy on the skin.

Blush

Next on the list is blush, a must-have makeup product that adds a subtle tint to your face. Blush is applied on the cheeks to give a natural flush to the skin and enhance the complexion. For someone like me who prefers a natural look, I use PAC Cosmetics Spotlight Liquid Blush which gives me a seamless flush of colour, even when keeping my makeup minimal.

Eyeshadow Palette

Even though you are a beginner, eye makeup is important in enhancing the overall look. I prefer ‘On the Go Glam Eyeshadow Palette’ from PAC Cosmetics which features a blend of mattes and shimmers, all of which I felt would suit my skin tone well. However, I wasn't sure how often I would use these shades.

Mascara

Mascara is a game-changer makeup product that you must have in your makeup kit. I opted for Twist and Lift Mascara from PAC Cosmetics which features a very innovative wand. You can switch between lengthening, volumising, and curling effects with just a click. A must-have in your purse, it is perfect for switching between subtle daytime looks and bold evening glam.

Cleanser

Though not mandatory, having a cleansing balm in your makeup pouch can offer quick relief from makeup. I use PAC Total Clean Cleansing Balm to remove my makeup at the end of the day. Its nourishing oils left my skin feeling soft and refreshed.
