What are the essential beauty products for beginners?
If you're a makeup novice, you first need to know what beauty products you should use. So, my darlings, I'm going to introduce you to the most essential beauty products.
Products of Foundation Bases For Beginners
Primer:
First of all, I'm sure the first one will be your best friend. I really like this product, it's very light and useful. Listen, my dear, I know there are a lot of girls who hate the feeling of layers, but I swear that when smoothed onto your skin, it blends, hides, and evens out your skin texture, large pores, and freckles.
Foundation:
This product is used all over the face to create an even base for the rest of your makeup. The most important step in choosing your favorite foundation is to carefully and accurately choose the right color for your skin.
Concealer:
Concealer isn't much different from foundation, but it's lighter and gentler on the delicate eye area. It helps add an extra layer of coverage to dark spots, pimples, scars, or anywhere else you want more coverage.
Highlighter:
By using a highlighter, you will achieve a stunning shine effect, a distinct touch and radiance. It highlights the high points of your face and protects the reflection of light imperfections on the face.
Contouring:
People always wonder about the importance of contouring, I'll explain... When you apply any type of BB cream, your face immediately becomes flat, because all the dimensions of your face have been removed, so you need to warm up and add contour to your face.
Blush and Tanning:
Shine bright, shine bright—blush can warm up fair, cool-toned skin. It can also brighten dull or tired skin. Bronzer, on the other hand, creates a natural, sun-kissed glow by accentuating and enhancing your cheekbones.
Setting powder:
While setting powder helps set makeup and keep it in place, it can also help even out and blend everything together.
Moving on to another part, It's all about the eye...
Products ofis Eyes For Beginners
Eyeshadow Base:
Just like the face primer, except it has a lightweight formula that's gentle on eye skin. It helps eye makeup stay in place all day and gives it a more natural look.
Eyeshadow:
Eyeshadow is a powder that you apply to your eyelids to highlight your eyes. Since it comes in light and dark colors, it's also considered one of the easiest cosmetic products for beginners to apply.
Eyeliner:
This product is used to define the eyes and give them a more attractive and aesthetic shape. It can also be painted in many ways, depending on the shape of the eye. And those who are new to makeup find it difficult to apply correctly.
Mascara:
It is used to define, enhance, and give the appearance of fuller, longer lashes. Since it always manages to change the shape of the eye, I think makeup beginners will really like it.

How to Apply Makeup Step by Step for Beginners
My newbies in the world of makeup, after knowing each product, let's begin the journey of how to apply it correctly and easily. Buckle up, as we're going to discover how to perfect your makeup style and the tips that will help you achieve a flawless finish... Ready?
Step 1: Prepare your skin
First of all, I give you a piece of advice, my dear, which is that if this is what we are going to do on your face, whether it is a mask, a scrub, or you are going to put on makeup, you must clean your skin well, it must be free of any impurities.Use the cleaner suitable for your skin and cleanse it well to be ready for the next step!
Second, whatever your skin type, stay hydrated. My dear, never neglect moisturizing your skin before applying makeup; it's an essential step. Five minutes before you start applying makeup, apply your crth moisturizingIt should be a light cream that absorbs quickly.
2nd step: The primer
To ensure the success of your makeup, choose a primer Light and suitable for your skin. If you use a heavy version, you will create a ball or small pills. Apply the transparent cream to your entire face, focusing on the forehead, cheeks and chin.
Step 3: Foundation and concealer
Now that your skin is ready for makeup, the next step is to apply foundation and then conceal any imperfections. Apply a few drops of foundation on the T-zone, then blend it with a foundation brush, which is a great choice for beginners, a sponge, or even your fingers like the pros do.
You are now ready to move on to the next step, which is applying the proofreader. Focus on areas you want to hide imperfections, such as under the eyes, around the nostrils, and any blemishes or dark spots. Gently blend with your finger, brush concealer or sponge.
Step 4: Setting powder
This is a quick and easy step, using a simple brush to sweep over your face to ensure your makeup doesn't move during application. Here too, focus on the T-zone.
Step 5: Contouring and Highlighting
This step is the most complicated for beginners, but I'll explain it to you in a very simple way. Find your cheekbones by sucking in your cheeks, then applying contouring along the hollows of your cheeks. You can place your shadow on either side of your nose; a "3" follows your hairline, under your cheekbone, and your jawline.
As for the lights, apply highlighting on the areas of your face that naturally reflect light: under the jaw, on the sides of the cheeks and around the forehead, as you would for contouring.
Step 6: Tan and blush.
Make sure the shade of tanner that you choose is only one or two shades darker than your skin tone. Using a brush, blend the bronzer around your hairline, across your cheekbones, and along your jawline. Then blend in with circular motions and place a simple touch on your nose.
Suck in your cheek until the apple of your cheek appears as an outline and apply your favorite color of blush.
Step 7: Eye makeup.
Always start by using a primer on the eyelid, you can apply it with your fingers or with a brush, then you can apply the eyeshadow base or concealer which helps the eyeshadow adhere better to the skin.
For beginners, you only need 3 shades: a medium matte shade, a contour shade 2-3 shades darker than leather, and a matte black shade.
When you're finished, use the same color and define the arch of your eyebrows. Add kohl for better eye definition.
Finally, mascara... use a mascara protector to prevent it from touching your face.
Step 8: Lip Products
Start well wet your lips, then use your lip pencil to define the contours of your mouth. And if you want your lips to look bigger, you can also define the outline. And finally, put your favorite color of lipstick.
Don't worry about being a makeup beginner, the experts were too! All you have to do is try a lot and several times until you know the secrets of makeup by yourself. Try each step by yourself and watch the "How to Apply Makeup" videos on YouTube, it's really very helpful and fun.
