MAKEUP GUIDE FOR BEGINNERS!


Makeup tips and buyers guide for beginners
Hello lovelies, if you are wondering and have not already figured out by the title of this blog post what this post is about, i am sure this will help you. I have had many requests to do a blog post on how to start wearing makeup, many  people are either intimidated by makeup or just don’t know where to start. On this blog post i will show those of you who wanted my advice how to start wearing makeup and the best beauty products that will help you ease into it. I will also be showing you beauty products i believe are great for starting off with makeup and how to get the perfect natural look. The last thing you want to do is to start of with lots of makeup because like i said earlier the key is to ease into it.
Personally i think The Body Shop do the best products for the natural look, all the products i show on this blog post will be from The Body Shop as i love all of their products and think it is great that they are against animal testing, support community fair trade, defend human rights and protect our planet.
Makeup is pretty simple once you get the hang of it, here is my buyers guide for the natural look.
1.  Face: BB Cream, foundation, concealer, powders etc.

This Body Shop’s All-In-One BB Cream is perfect for beginners and not to forget the people who just want a natural look with flawless skin. The Colour-Adapting Tinted Cream gives your skin 24-hour hydration, light to medium coverage, non-clogging, an even finish and it adapts to your skin tone. This is has to be my all time favourite BB Cream and it is perfect for those of you who want to look natural. Many BB Creams are just as good, if you have any recommendations comment down below, i love to see what you guys are using!
Concealer is very important if some of you guys are paranoid about spots etc. This Concealer from The Body Shop is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I use this to cover blemishes, redness or uneven skin tone. I still use it to this very day. I love the way it has high to medium coverage, blends easily and is dermatologically tested. I thoroughly recommend this concealer!

2.Eyes: Mascara, eyeliner,eyeshadow and eyebrow pencil.

The Body Shop’s Big and Curvy Waterproof Mascara is a great mascara which makes your lashes appear thicker and more curved. The advanced brush is designed to sculpt lashes, coating them from root to tip and gives your eyelashes a curve that lasts. You clearly do not want your mascara to leak if it is raining so the fact that it is waterproof makes it even better! Again i am sure there are many other mascaras that are just as good, leave your recommendations in the comments below!
If you feel like mascara is not enough you can bring your eves out more by adding eyeliner or eyeshadow. I have not included it in this post as i wanted to keep it as simple as possible for the beginners, but if you can already do this thats obviously brill :)
3. Lips: Lip gloss, lip sticks, lip stains etc.

This Body Shop Coconut Lip Gloss gives a glossy colour and a coconut flavour. This luscious lip-gloss gives a super shine, sheer colour, natural look and is long lasting! Obviously you don’t just have to go for this lip gloss as i am pretty positive that there are many more out there that are just as good!
4. Cheeks: Blusher, bronzer, highlighter etc.

This Body Shop All-In-One Blusher in Marshmallow is great for makeup and skincare as it contains Vitamin E and marula oil. The extra-fine powder blusher gives smooth, buildable colour, has great staying power and blends so easily. It is available in 6 other different shades and all of them give a nice pop of colour to the natural look.
I hope this was some help to those of you who needed it or if it was some help to those of you who just wan’t to accomplish the natural look. I will do more blog posts on different makeup looks in the future. Please comment some makeup looks you want to see me do a buyers guide on and i will try to do them all!
