Every girl needs makeup to a certain point. To cover a blemish, to add length to the eyelashes, to add some color to your lips. What ever there reason may be, every girl has some type of makeup. Now don't get me wrong, natural beauty is always there no matter who you are, but why not enhance what is already there? But no one knows where to start! What brand is good and what brand is a waste of our money? No one knows until they try it. So I have come up with a simple guide to the basic must haves for any girl!
First things first: Your face!

Now every kit must have a foundation where to build from, in this case literally!
Above are products that almost everyone is familiar with, now you dont have to get these identical ones, there are many brands ranging from inexpensive drugstore brands to high end brands. You can purchase any that fit your budget and skin type.
A face primer is used all over the face to prepare and smooth out your face.
Over that you should use a foundation fit for your skin type, some have oily, dry, sensitive, or acne prone skin. It pays off to do research for your ideal foundation, only you know your face better than anyone else.
In order to cover up any redness or blemish that the foundation didn't get, you need to add concealer to those spots, most popularly under your eyes to get rid of dark circles.
In order to set your foundation and concealer and prevent what is referred to "cakyness" you need a good face powder. And once again you need to find one that is best fit for your skin type; again, research.
And after you have applied all these you need to add some color to that solid tone of your face. A nice blush and bronzer combination will do the trick. Again you should find one that best fits your skin tone.
Once you have completed an even toned and smooth canvas, its time to add on to your eyes!
Now most people prefer to just curl there lashes and add a bit of mascara and call it a day. I will admit to being one of those people. But sometimes its nice to add some eye shadow and eyeliner and have your eyes looking amazing.
So to start everything off you will, again, need a primer. In this case an eye shadow primer.
Once you have put that all over your lids, you can apply eye shadow in any color or combination of colors you like. I showed above the Naked Basics pallet, which is a group of nude eye shadows that just so happen to be my favorite.
After you are happy with your lids, many girls like to add a bit of gel, liquid or pencil liner; which ever you prefer; to top it all off. Personally I prefer the gel liner, its smooth and creamy and comes with its own small brush for applying.
After all those steps are done you finish it off by curling your eyelashes and adding mascara! Now once again, there are many type of mascara's out there; for length, thickness, a combination of the two. So just find the one that fits your lashes best and go with it.

And you can't forget your tools to help you finish off this look. Every girl needs brushes and an eye lash curler.
Now picking brushes is tricky and can be a bit of a hassle but try out some inexpensive ones first and work your way up to the higher end ones. You wont regret having a few of the same type of brushes trust me.
And for your eye lash curler, once again, try a couple out, always start with the inexpensive ones and then work your way up if you need to.
So this is the list of what I personally think is a Makeup Starter Kit for any girl. When it comes to finding makeup that best suits you, you have to face one thing; its going to be a little difficult but worth it in the end. Any girl can tell you that in order to find the right shade and type of makeup for you is to do research and try them all out.
So have fun with it and let me know what is in your makeup starter kit! Comment bellow for any comments, ideas for future post or questions you may have!
