Makeup look for beginners like me 🌸🍋
Hello my lovely girlies! ✨
Last weekend I went on a shopping spree and bought some makeup products. I used them for a day out with my bestie at the beach and I absolutely loved how the look came out with all the products I used. I listed all the products I used and mentioned the shades. Also I was sleep deprived in this picture as I was working late hours and these products have definitely made me look better so I can vouch for them!
Products
🤍 elf Primer: I fell in love with elf products! This primer is definitely a must buy. I have oily skin and this primer somehow managed to hold makeup on my face lol!
🤍 elf Halo Glow: The HYPE is worth it you guys! I was very skeptical of buying this as I was worried it would make my face more shiny (did I mention I have an oily skin?😅) which I wanted to avoid, but the glow it gave was amazing. If you’re skeptical like me use very little product, build as you go and use under a medium coverage foundation.
🤍 Bobbi Brown foundation - I really liked this foundation it is not cakey, gives a nice finish and is very light weight on the skin
🤍elf color corrector: This helped me color correct my dark under eyes and hyperpigmentation around my mouth. Formula is really good, can be easily worn underneath a concealer.
🤍 Kosas concealor: My ride or die! Ive been using this since a year and I plan to continue to buy it. Gives medium coverage and is amazing for everyday use. Can be used alone without a foundation!
🤍 wet n wild banana powder: I used this to bake under my eyes and lower part of my cheek (idk what to call it lol 😂)
🤍 Bobbi Brown concealer: I used this a cream bronzer because I like the formula. It worked perfect as a bronzer
🤍 elf liquid blush: I looove this blush I was hesitant to buy this shade but now I use it everyday even when I’m slothing away on my couch all day 🤪
🤍 too faced powder bronzer: I really like the shade on me, it gives me a nice bronzed look and adds dimension to my face. But I did observe some transfer so I might have to experiment but with a different setting spray and see how it works
🤍 elf lipstick and lip oil: I used a brown lip liner from revlon, used a nude lipstick and topped it off with a lip oil!
🤍 Milani setting spray: I really liked the setting spray it immediately seals in my make up. But it makes my make up patchy immediately after I spray it on so I usually blend my make up again with a blending brush. If you have good setting spray suggestions please post them in the comments and help a girl out!!

Whether you're new to the world of makeup or looking to refine your skills, having the right products can make all the difference. For beginners, focusing on quality tools and formulas is essential.
