    With beauty gurus and YouTube queens declaring so many products as essentials, we’re here to help sift out the ones worth your hard-earned dollars. Check out this list of 5 Make Up Essentials To Add To Your Collection Right Now to help you cultivate a make up bag worthy of any Instagram influencer.

    There are thousands upon thousands of make up brands, products, and accessories storming the market right now. Whether you’re a beauty beginner or product professional, it can be hard to know where to start.

    A Flawless Base

    It is impossible to create great art without a solid canvas. Ensure that your face base is perfect with is as good as it gets with mineral make up. Mineral has so many benefits including being longer lasting, high coverage, and is great for sensitive skin.

    If you’re not into really heavy make up a mineral powder foundation can be great at giving that fresh-faced look without being too heavy.

    Beautiful Brows

    Whether you like them big and bushy or sleek and arched, eyebrows have a huge effect on your face. If you’re looking to create a fluffy brow, try an eyebrow pencil to give the look of extra hairs.

    Make sure the pencil is sharp and your brush strokes are precise. For maximum volume, brush them out with a thin spoolie. If you like something a little more smooth and glossy, an eyebrow wax is a must-have!

    Also, eyebrow and eyelash tinting is another perfect product to add to your collection, as it enhances the natural beauty of your eyes. Using a tinting set for brows and lashes, which often includes tinting solutions and application tools, you can achieve a customized and defined look in the comfort of your home.

    This process not only saves time on daily makeup routines but also adds a subtle yet impactful framing to your face. The enhanced definition of tinted eyebrows and eyelashes can provide a polished and put-together appearance, drawing attention to your eyes and creating a harmonious balance to your facial features.

    The key to beautiful eyebrows is finding the perfect shape that complements your unique facial features. Fortunately, there are plenty of resources available to guide you in the right direction. Whether you have a round, square, or heart-shaped face, there are eyebrow shapes that will enhance your natural beauty.

    Take the time to learn more about eyebrow mapping, which can help you achieve symmetrical and well-proportioned brows. With a little bit of research and experimentation, you can achieve stunning eyebrows that frame your face and make your eyes pop. So don't be afraid to try something new and see what looks best for you.

    Perfect Palette

    There are so many eyeshadow palettes out there with so many colors - crazy pinks, neon greens, and sparkly metallics can all be found in a pan. Such a massive range is incredible for creative artistry, however, most brands don’t come cheap.

    If you’re after one hero palette, look for one that has a little bit of everything. Neutral, warm colors look great on most skin tones and can also double up as blush or contour powder. Bonus points if your palette has a light, shimmery pan that can be used as a highlighter!

    Luscious Lashes

    Mascara is an essential, even if you’re a total cosmetics novice! If you’re fair opt for a brown color and if your hair is darker then go bold with black. Check which wand will help you achieve the look you like and make sure you apply carefully to avoid clumps or 'spider legs'.

    If you live or work in warmer climes try a waterproof version to steer clear of smudging.

    Wipe It Away

    Lastly, a good quality make up remover is vital for any cosmetics wearer. Sleeping in make up can lead to premature aging, bad skin, and dull your complexion. Try and avoid ‘easy’ products such as make up wipes as they tend to move the make up around your face rather than remove it properly.

    If you have dry skin an oil cleanser will help hydrate and if you’re prone to breakouts try a formula with Salicylic-Acid. Plus, think of how clean your pillows will be without last night’s make up smeared across them!
