Start A Great Makeup Collection With These Tips

By:


A woman's makeup routine can be a fulfilling or frustrating part of each morning.

A good makeup collection enables a woman to simply reach for what she needs, apply it, and move on with her day. Not having those items available at your fingertips can lead to frustration or even worse, make a girl late for work!

Building a great makeup collection just takes a little know-how. Here are the basics of what you need to build your own.

First, find a place to store everything. For some women, this is simply a small bag. For others with more elaborate makeup collections, it could be a dresser drawer or bathroom shelf.

Whichever you choose, make sure it's a highly accessible place that's easy to clean. If you've decided to store your makeup in a bag, look for one that has a wipe-clean lining and can easily be closed even when full. Bonus points for finding a bag that also includes interior pockets for stashing small items.

Second, stock up on little things. Besides your makeup collection, these are the essentials you'll want to have on hand inside your bag or drawer.

Among them are makeup brushes, eye makeup remover, a small pencil sharpener for eye and lip pencils, cotton pads and swabs, and cosmetic sponges.

Having these sorts of things available on the fly will save you time and energy in those moments when you accidentally put on too much eye color or find the top of your eye pencil completely worn down. These items also make on-the-go makeup application so much easier.

Finally, and very obviously, add in your makeup collection. If you're not sure where to start, always begin by finding a great "base" or foundation.

In liquid or powder, finding a foundation that perfectly matches your skin tone will complement whatever else you choose to wear on your face. The same goes for eye makeup.

Aim to find a small eye shadow palette that works well with your eye color. The best rule of thumb for finding one? Wear the color opposite in the color spectrum to your eyes.

All you need to top it off is a black or brown mascara, a light pink or coral blush, and a soft pink or pinkish brown lip color. Add to your bag and you'll be out the door before you know it!
