Does makeup really require so many cosmetics?!

Everyone has a love for beauty. Makeup, as a kind of magic that can quickly enhance one's appearance and temperament, is deeply loved by everyone. However, for makeup beginners, facing a dazzling array of cosmetics, they are often at a loss and don't know exactly which cosmetics are needed to create a complete and beautiful makeup look. Don't worry. Today, let's have a good chat about what cosmetics are needed for makeup, so that you can easily embark on the road to becoming more beautiful.

1. Sunscreen: This is the last step of skincare and also the first step of makeup. The damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin is not small. It will not only make the skin darker but also accelerate aging. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a sunscreen that suits your skin type. Whether it is for daily commuting or going out for fun, remember to apply sunscreen to hold up an umbrella for your skin.

2. Primer: It can play a role in isolating the skin from the damage of makeup, air pollution, and computer radiation, etc. Some primers also have the function of correcting skin tone. For example, purple primers are suitable for sallow skin, and green primers are suitable for flushed skin, which can make the subsequent makeup look more adherent and natural.

3. Foundation / Cushion Foundation: This is the key product for creating a base makeup. The concealing effect of foundation is relatively good, suitable for creating a delicate makeup look; cushion foundation is more convenient to carry and convenient for touch-ups. According to your skin type (dry, oily, combination, etc.), choose the appropriate texture (moisturizing, oil-controlling, etc.) to make the base makeup present a clear and flawless effect.

1. Eyebrow Pencil / Eyebrow Powder: Eyebrows are the frame of the face and can play a role in contouring the face shape. Eyebrow pencils are suitable for outlining clear eyebrow shapes, and eyebrow powders can fill in the eyebrows to make them look more natural. The two can also be used in combination. First use the eyebrow pencil and then the eyebrow powder to create a three-dimensional and natural eyebrow makeup.

2. Eyeshadow: Eyeshadow can make the eyes look deeper and more vivid. There are various colors and textures of eyeshadow on the market. Beginners can start with earth-tone colors. These colors are more versatile and less likely to go wrong. The textures of eyeshadow include powder, cream, etc. Powder eyeshadow is easier to blend and is suitable for daily makeup.

3. Eyeliner / Liquid Eyeliner: Drawing a thin eyeliner along the root of the eyelashes can instantly enlarge the eyes. Eyeliner pencils are relatively soft and easy to handle, suitable for beginners; liquid eyeliner can draw clearer and more lasting lines, but it requires certain skills.

4. Mascara: Applying mascara can make the eyelashes longer and curlier, making the eyes look brighter and more attractive. There are different types of mascara such as volumizing and lengthening. You can choose according to your own needs.

1. Blush: Appropriate blush can make the complexion look better and add a rosy glow to the face. There are also many colors of blush. For example, pink shades are suitable for creating a sweet and cute makeup look, and orange shades are suitable for creating a vibrant feeling. The application position is generally on the apple of the cheek. You can adjust the application range and shape according to your face shape.

2. Contouring Powder / Contouring Stick: By applying contouring on specific parts of the face (such as on both sides of the bridge of the nose, on both sides of the cheeks, etc.), the facial contour can be made more three-dimensional. Contouring powder is easier to blend, and contouring stick is more convenient for precise application. You can choose according to your own preferences.

1. Lipstick / Lip Balm: This is the finishing touch of the whole makeup look. Lipsticks have a rich variety of colors. You can choose the appropriate color according to different occasions and moods. For example, bright red is suitable for formal occasions, and nude colors are suitable for daily commuting, etc. Lip balm pays more attention to moisturizing and can keep the lips in a hydrated state.

1. Loose Powder / Translucent Powder: After completing the whole makeup look, use loose powder or translucent powder to set the makeup. It can absorb the excess oil on the face, making the makeup more lasting and presenting a matte texture. If you like a shiny makeup effect, you can choose translucent powder with a slight shimmer.

2. Setting Spray: Setting spray can not only set the makeup but also make the makeup look more adherent. Some setting sprays also have moisturizing and other effects, which are suitable for friends with dry skin.

These are the cosmetics needed for makeup. Of course, everyone's makeup habits and needs are different, and the specific choice of cosmetics will also vary. I hope everyone can find the cosmetics that suit them and create their own beautiful makeup looks. Why not share your favorite cosmetics in the comment section?
