Hello lovelies, this post is for girls whom their only knowledge about makeup is a kohl pencil and mascara..

So Iโ€™ll recommend for you some products carefully chosen from my collection..Iโ€™ll start with the makeup on a budget and I’m talking here about basic pretty face no complicated products that need a certain technique.

  • Bioderma sebium pore refiner: preparing your face before your foundation is very important for a flawless finish..this pore minimizer will blur the sight of pores and leave your skin as a smooth canvas to the rest of your makeup.
  • Bourjois happy light foundation: since your are a beginner so you need a sheer foundation and easy to blend whether with your hands or a brush and gives you a natural finish and it doesn’t have any SPF in it โ€œ so you can get photographed comfortably with itโ€..personally I love this foundationโ€ฆgo check what to avoid in choosing your base
  • Makeup forever full cover concealer:.I’ll cheat the budget rule with this, it’s a bit costy if you are on a budget but it worth the money..it comes in many shades to suit everyone, this concealer gives a full coverage and it blends in the skin beautifully. Also check how to choose your concealer on
  • Bourjois healthy mix concealer: going to our budget option..this concealer also gives a good coverage but the down side of it that it needs a bit of an effort to blend and it has like only 4 shades so the matching opportunities are lower but the pen version of it is very nice but I don’t have it now.
  • Loreal miss manga mascara: there is nothing much to say about a mascara it’s either good or bad but this one is good it will give your length it’s easy to use.
  • Art Deco voluming mascara: 2 this is a good one.. It’s voluming and it doesn’t flake.
  • Max factor cream blush: cream blushes are best in achieving a natural look since it blends in the skin and leaves it looking like natural skin..it’s also easy to use you can apply and blend it by your fingers or by a brush..just make sure to use the minimum amount and blend it well.
  • H&M eyebrow kit: some eyebrows need to be filled or to nicely reshape them..don’t be scared by girls walking around with their eyebrows heavily drawn, you don’t have to look like this..actually no has to look like this..you will find what to avoid in http://eb8e7f6d53.nxcli.net/eyebrows-eyebrows-eyebrows/#disqus_thread so this brow kit consists of 3 shade (dark brown, brown and blond) with ashy undertone so your eyebrows won’t look reddish.
  • Loreal eyeshadow in nude: eye shadows can be intimidating specially for a beginner but in this case less is more, adding a hint of color to your eyes is enough until you master your eyeshadow skills and them go wild..all you have to do apply your eyeshadow ONLY on your eyelid do not take it upwards till the brow bone and blend it in the crease not to have a harsh line and that’s it..and these eyeshadow are very creamy and easy to blend..

Quick tip: it’s better to go for neutral eyeshadow colors like different brown and taupe shades and never go to blues and greens and white unless you know how to use them they will look unflattering.

  • Art Deco eyeshadow stick: eyeshadow sticks and pens are all over the place, there is no brand that doesn’t make them and they are all similar in formula also they are the easiest way in applying eyeshadow but this one is long lasting so be quick in blending it before it sets on your lid and you can’t move it.
  • Lip sticks: these are all options if you want to get one of them or all of them it’s your call.
  • Bourjois velvet edition: is liquid lipstick..it gives a matte finish they are very good and not drying.
  • Bourjois rouge edition: these lipsticks are very beautiful.,comes in pretty shades they give a matte finish and they don’t dry the lipsโ€ฆthis on is no. 30
  • Essence long lasting lipstick: it’s a very pretty nude shade, you can read my review about it on https://lucidmakeup.wordpress.com/2015/03/01/february-favorites/
  • Rimmel Kate moss lasting lipstick: this one is a beautiful berry colour with a purple undertone, if you are feeling bold,it’s not too bright or too dark it’s the balanced colour.
  • Catrice lip balm: it’s a tinted balm a sheer one definitely..the pen form makes it easy to use.

  • Clarins instant smooth perfecting touch: it’s creamy but gives you a smooth powdery finish and your foundation will look perfect.
