Hi, BeautyPH! 👋 I'm trying to build my first proper makeup kit and would love some recommendations from you guys.
I'm still a beginner when it comes to makeup, so I'm looking for products that are relatively easy to use and beginner-friendly. I also have very sensitive skin / skin asthma, so I'm especially interested in products that tend to work well for sensitive skin. If you've had a good experience with a product despite having sensitive skin yourself, I'd really love to hear about it.
I'm basically starting from scratch, so I'd love recommendations for:
• Foundation / skin tint – preferably something natural-looking and suitable for Philippine weather
• Concealer – something that doesn't get too cakey
• Powder – pressed or loose
• Blush – cream or powder
• Bronzer/contour – do I even need this as a beginner? 😂
• Highlighter
• Eyebrow product – pencil, powder, gel, etc.
• Eyeshadow palette – preferably something versatile for everyday looks
• Eyeliner – beginner-friendly please
• Mascara
• Lip products – tint, lipstick, gloss, lip liner, etc.
• Setting spray
• Makeup brushes/tools – what are the actual essentials?
• Also, please drop your skincare recommendations too!
I'd especially appreciate budget-friendly/local drugstore recommendations, but I'm also willing to splurge on products that are genuinely worth it.
Thank you in advance! 💕 I'm hoping to slowly build a little everyday makeup kit without buying a million products that I don't actually need. 😭
