The decision to become a makeup artist should not be impulsive. It is important to understand that training will take a lot of time and will require significant expenses - at least for cosmetics and tools. If you are confident in your choice, get down to business. Let's talk about what a starter case should include. It is necessary to collect it, having a good idea of what the make-up artist will need from cosmetics at first, or better, by making a list.
Principles of forming a set of a beginner makeup artist
Beginners want to add everything to their working set. Still, in cosmetic stores, indeed, eyes run wide! Beautiful shades, pleasant texture, positive reviews - all this inspires confidence that sooner or later the funds will come in handy. In addition to shopping, the fear of missing out on something important spurs on.

Experienced craftsmen advise to calm down and approach the matter wisely. You need to start with a minimum, and then replenish your case, based on practical experience.
Face
Clients have different skin types, different skin tones and undertones. Do you need separate funds for each individual case?

It is not at all necessary to immediately purchase bases for oily, problematic and dry skin, tonal products of all possible colors. A universal primer and two or three creams are enough, which can be mixed to get the desired shade - lighter or darker.

Concealers and proofreaders can be bought in a palette - for example, Master Camo by Maybelline New York.
Eyes
The number of products and their shades for eye makeup rolls over. But professional makeup artists assure that at the initial stage, multi-story palettes are not needed. As well as entire collections of eyeliners and pencils. Limit yourself to base colors and a few accent shades. For a make-up artist starter kit, this will be enough.

Also think about whether they can be mixed and thereby expand the available gamut.

Lips
When choosing lip makeup, also consider the possibility of mixing shades.

In this sense, it is easiest to work with creamy lipsticks that have a soft texture, like Round Lipstick from NYX Professional Makeup.
What our readers think about this tool can be found here.
“Extra” shades are also not needed - the classic trio (nude, pink, red) will be enough at first.

Brows
The tools that you will definitely need are tweezers, a brush, a beveled brush. But you can do without special cosmetics - the same brown shades that you buy for eye makeup are suitable for color correction. The only thing to keep in mind in this regard is. Some girls need warm shades with reddishness, while others need cold ones with an ashy undertone. We talked more about how to make eyebrow makeup with shadows in this video.
basic set of a beginner makeup artist: basic tools
Concealer
Professionals can afford a case with a full collection of foundations. Beginners, as a rule, require an economical option. It is enough to have a couple of dark and light shades, so that by mixing them in desired proportion to get the optimal tone.

Another idea is to use an adjuster. It is a creamy pigment for darkening or lightening foundations. In line Pro Foundation Mixer by NYX Professional Makeup there are only four of them, and this is enough to get any tone from porcelain to swarthy.
Reviews from readers who have already tried this remedy can be found here.
Powder
Powder is easier. In practice, a rich range of shades is not required for work. In fact, with the help of powder, we only matte the skin, and a colorless product like De-Slick from Urban Decay can also cope with this.
Concealers and proofreaders
These tools are needed for a thorough spot masking of imperfections. It's good that they are now released in palettes. Sets with different shades are convenient and practical. How to use these, we told.

It is best to choose palettes that have both body concealers and color correctors. For NYX Professional Makeup, this is, for example, Color Correcting Palette.
Blush
A blush palette is another solution for beginner makeup artists.But you can get by with less if you buy one warm shade and one cold one.

The first one can be closer to brown in shade so that it can also be used as a sculptor. The second one is pink.
Base for shadows
Unlike a primer for the face, it is one of the essentials. No matter how masterly the makeup artist handles the shadows, without a base layer, they will surely roll up and clog into folds, depriving the makeup of freshness.

Therefore, it is necessary to have in the arsenal a tool like Eyeshadow Primer Potion by Urban Decay.
Shadows
At first, a medium palette of shadows or a set of several basic and several accent shades will be enough for you.

Don't go for texture variety. A shimmering effect, if necessary, you can create with the help of loose pigment, which makes sense to purchase in two shades: gold and silver. You will find both in the Face & Body Glitter collection from NYX Professional Makeup.
Eyeliner and pencil
To the shadows - a pair of pencils, or better - gel eyeliners in black and brown.With a gel, you can draw clear lines and get a graphic eye makeup.And if this tool is softened with a quick shading, the result will be identical to the pencil.pay attention to Gel Intenza by L'Oreal Paris.
ink
You can't do without it either. If mascara should be in the basic makeup bag of an ordinary beauty user, then in a makeup artist’s case, even more so. Choose the standard color - black.

Look for a volumizing product with a handy brush to separate lashes like L'Oréal Paris' Paradise Extatic.
Pomade
If we talk about lip products, then a novice makeup artist will need lipsticks and pencils in three main shades, that is, nude, pink and red.

By the way, to get new shades, you can not only mix basic lipsticks with each other, but also add shadows to them, including shimmering ones.
Lip gloss
With a glossy glow will help you.

It is used alone or over a colored coating if a lacquer effect is required. A Filler Instinct Plumping Lip Polish in NYX Professional Makeup's Let's Glaze will also make your lips look bigger.
List of tools for a beginner makeup artist
Buying good professional brushes is another big expense for a novice makeup artist. The consolation is that this is a long-term investment: you won’t have to spend a lot of money replacing cheap brushes that fail.
© site
Again, professionals do not advise beginners to use large sets of brushes. Naturally, over time, their number will grow, but at the start, more than 10 pieces are definitely not needed.
© nyxcosmetics
Start by looking for the right face brushes. The most needed ones are for tonal foundation (kabuki or duofiber), blush (volumetric and beveled edge), concealer (small for spot application) and powder (large and fluffy).
© nyxcosmetics
Next, move on to the eye makeup brushes. You will need several of them: flat - for applying shadows, dense and voluminous - for shading, beveled - for eyeliner and color correction of eyebrows. For eyebrows, a brush can also come in handy, with which you can comb them. You can add a lipstick brush to them.

Pay attention to learning how the pile should be for cream and dry textures. And also carefully check the quality of the brushes: they must be elastic and at the same time soft (clients are unpleasant when they prick). Brushes should not “climb”, they should not have creases. This is important to check at the stage of choosing tools in the store.
This article will be of interest to those who are just starting their acquaintance with decorative cosmetics and makeup. Now there are so many different means that it is simply impossible for a beginner to understand them and buy what he really needs.
Moreover, many look up to bloggers, whose cosmetics sometimes take up most of the room. Naturally, there is a feeling that an ordinary girl simply cannot live without thirty-three foundations, seventeen mascaras and an uncountable number of shadows, lipsticks, pencils and other things.
You need to understand that a blogger is a certain lifestyle that obliges you to test a large number funds, which then either go out or are distributed among girlfriends and relatives.
An ordinary person does not need so much, so let's look at what a beginner needs to have in a makeup bag.
1. Foundation/powder.
Two products are enough for all seasons: one is light for winter, the other is 1-2 tones darker for summer, in spring and autumn you can mix them.
Liquid foundation must be selected according to the density of coverage. If you do not have any particular skin problems, then light foundations, (tint moisturizer) or BB creams from European manufacturers are suitable for you.
If there is something to hide on the face (pimples, pigmentation, etc.), choose toners with a dense coverage, sticks or Korean ones.
For the summer period, you can choose a more saturated shade, since pale blush will not be visible on a tan, and vice versa, for the cold season - light ones, since active shades look comical on pale skin.
Highlighter and bronzer are not essential things, so you can buy them later, when you develop your skills, because even very good makeup can be ruined with these products.
I wrote about such things in an article.
4. Shadows.
No need to immediately rush to palettes with 100 colors. They are of no use to you. Choose one palette that will include 3-4 shades of brown (white, beige, brown and/or black/dark brown).
You will kill two birds with one stone: firstly, such shadows suit any eye color, and secondly, you can do both day and evening makeup with this set.
Choose eyeshadows with mother-of-pearl, as they are easier to apply and blend, and you will fill your hand faster. Matte textures are tricky to work with and require certain skills that beginners usually don't have.
Also, do not take glitters, sparkles, loose pigments and so on - leave it until you learn how to confidently wield a brush.
5. Pencils.
You will need a black soft eyeliner to draw arrows, bring mucous, make smokey ice and so on. I do not recommend starting with liquid eyeliner or permanent pencils, because the hand can tremble, and it will be more difficult to correct this than a regular soft pencil.
For lips, you can take either a universal transparent or two pencils: one for daytime shades of lipsticks (pink), the second for evening (red).
You will also need an eyebrow pencil. Choose taupe if you have fair hair, and brown if you have dark hair. Black pencils look too heavy and gloomy, even if you are a burning brunette.
I talked about the correct shape of the eyebrows in the article.
6. Mascara.
Black mascara is considered universal, but if you have light eyelashes and hair, pale skin, then brown will be more appropriate.
Choose mascaras that give volume or volume and length, as they make the lashes thicker, as opposed to just lengthening, which in fact just color the lashes and do nothing else.
7. Lipsticks / glosses.
For evenings and special occasions, you can buy red lipstick, but choose a shade that will suit you perfectly.
You can take a wide variety of glitters, but at first limit yourself to one or two shades that you like the most.
Do not buy long-lasting lipsticks yet, especially bright colors - they are very difficult to fix. In addition, persistent lipsticks dry out lips. Better once again fix your makeup.
8 brushes.
For convenience, it is better to purchase brushes with which you will paint. But again, you don’t need to buy a set of 35 items that you don’t know where to apply. You will need only 8 pieces:
- foundation brush
- powder brush
- blush brush
- flat eyeshadow brush
- eye shadow brush
- angled eyeliner brush
- lipstick brush
- concealer brush
This minimum will be enough for the initial stage, then you will get some more specialized brushes for detailed work.
That's the whole list. As you can see, it turns out quite a bit, but this is quite enough to learn how to paint. In the future, as you develop skills, you will already be experimenting with textures, shades, effects, false eyelashes and other bells and whistles.
Now the main task is to learn how to confidently hold the brush, how to apply and shade the funds correctly, to understand and correct the mistakes that will inevitably arise. After all, the one who does nothing is not mistaken.
The basic principle for a beginner in any business is to go from simple to complex, from smallest to largest. Therefore, you do not need to buy everything that is recommended on the Internet. Take the basic inexpensive things you can't do makeup without and work out.
A neat make-up that matches the type of face, skin and occasion transforms the fair sex in a matter of minutes.
At the same time, an uneven line of foundation, too dark blush or crazy arrows give the opposite effect.
In this article, we find out how to do makeup at home correctly, not spend a lot of time on it and always look fresh.
The basics of makeup for women of any age are the same - the right make up is designed to emphasize the naturalness and beauty of the face.
And if at 18 it’s enough to paint over the cilia and line the lips to look perfect, then after 30 or 40 this is just not enough.
Unfortunately, there is no universal recipe for aging yet.
To hide all the flaws of the face and emphasize the dignity, you will need a good foundation, concealer, the right shades of shadows and lipsticks, eyebrow pencils and a lot of all sorts of devices.
Where to start?

To make the tone even, it is better to apply blush with a continuous movement with a brush made of natural materials.
Do not forget also that when choosing a blush, it is also necessary to take into account the skin tone.
Often girls use bronzers instead of blush, but it is important to understand that there is no brown blush in nature - pink, coral, red - yes.
Bronzer is useful for darkening some areas of the skin.
Tips for choosing the right shade of blushStep 7: Emphasize the beauty of the eyes
When choosing a shade, you should focus on the appropriateness of makeup - a black / brown pencil and shades of 2-3 light shades are suitable for daytime.
It is better to give preference to matte, since mother-of-pearl is reliably a thing of the past.
We shade the line with a pencil - the eyelashes will thus appear thicker, and the look will be expressive.
The pencil line should not be thick, otherwise the makeup will look vulgar and sloppy.
Step-by-step diagram of the correct eye makeupNever use black eyeliner on the inside of the eyelid, highlight it exclusively light shade. Otherwise, the eyes will visually decrease.

With age, it is recommended to approach the choice of cosmetics more carefully.
Everyone knows that after 35 years, the skin begins to actively fade, so buy cosmetics created specifically for women.

Practical makeup for beginners
The main rule of makeup is its moderation and completeness. Don't wear foundation that's much lighter or darker than your skin tone, or avoid it altogether. The completeness of the image means smooth transitions, soft colors and naturalness of colors - it should seem to others that you did not use cosmetics at all. But your make-up should not look faded either.
We offer you makeup for beginners in practice.
- Mix foundation and makeup base on the back of your hand and apply a thin layer to your face. Avoid thick coverage, otherwise the face will look like a mask. If the foundation is slightly different from the natural skin tone, it is also necessary to apply it not to the neck and décolleté area.
- Using a small brush, cover the eyelids with concealer / primer - not only under the eyes, but also on top. Set with powder.
- Outline the brows with short strokes of a sharpened pencil or brush dipped in shadow. Until you get your hands on, avoid wide, sweeping strokes.
- Highlight the inner corners of the eyes and the brow area with a very light powder - its matte texture looks much more natural than shadows.
- On moving eyelids, apply a medium shade of powder.
- Using a flat brush and bronzer, highlight the eyes strictly along the crease of the moving eyelid. Blend gently with a round bristle brush.
- Apply dark gray matte eye shadow to the outer corners of the eyes, also blend.
- With a pencil or felt-tip eyeliner (liquid until you are too tough), beautifully outline the upper eyelid, making short strokes. If the line came out crooked, correct the errors with dark shadows and blend the eyeliner.
- Start applying mascara from the ends, gradually moving towards the roots. Let each layer dry a little.
- Bronzer correct the oval of the face by applying it to the temples, under the cheekbones and the corners of the jaw.
- The forehead, cheeks and chin need to be lightened, and peach blush should be applied to the cheekbones.
- Lips can be circled with a body pencil, slightly protruding beyond the natural contour and shading it to the center of the mouth. On top of a small brush, you can apply any gloss or lipstick.
By following these makeup tips, you can unleash your inner potential and always look like a million dollars.
Olesya Popova, freelance make-up artist:“Over the past few years, prices for luxury cosmetics have doubled, and, unfortunately, the salaries of the majority have remained at the same level. Now, in order for a girl to assemble a decent basic beauty case, she needs to at least “sell a kidney”. What to do when cosmetics cost like an airplane wing, but you want to look good?
Luxury beauty brands tend to be owned by the same corporations as the mass market. And all products are produced by the same factories. The main difference in most cases is in the design and quality of the packaging, slightly cheaper fragrances and a little in the composition. But in general, decorative mass market and luxury cosmetics are very similar in their properties. And when there is no difference, it is foolish to give half the salary for a tube of foundation. In this regard, I offer several budget beauty products that I myself constantly use, which can become a worthy replacement for expensive ones.
Makeup bases
I must say right away that I am a small fan of the makeup base. If there are no serious problems with the skin and pronounced shortcomings, then there is no need for a base. The main thing to do in order for the foundation to lay down well is to properly moisturize the skin. Therefore, the base can be, for example, L'Oréal Paris "Luxury food" oil(about 550 rubles). It can easily replace luxury counterparts. In general, M.A.C Cosmetics, Clinique, Manly Pro, Smashbox and many other brands have similar products. But in terms of price-quality ratio, the most the best option at L'Oreal Paris. This is a multifunctional product that (most importantly!) Gives the effect of nourished, radiant, healthy skin. It is perfect for those with normal to dry skin. Lazy use option: mix the oil with your foundation. But personally, I prefer another way: put a couple of drops on your palms, warm them up and apply on your face with massaging movements. Fashionable "wet skin" is provided to you.
Popular
Or the second option - Maybelline New York Master Prime Makeup Base(about 570 rubles). It provides additional hydration if your daily care is not enough, and also increases the durability of the foundation. In short, this is a worthy universal tool at a great price.
Foundation
Three of my favorite foundations are Maybelline New York Superstay 24h, NYX Professional Makeup Stay Matte But Not Flat, and Lumene CC Cream. The first two are a bit like my favorite Make Up For Ever Ultra HD tone. Besides, Maybelline New York Superstay 24h(about 610 rubles) provides medium to dense coverage, ideal for owners of oily or oily-prone skin. It is very resistant and perfectly covers all imperfections, but at the same time remains invisible, creating the effect of satin-matte skin. This is what the aforementioned HD resembles.
The second analogue is tone NYX Professional Makeup Stay Matte But Not Flat(about 450 rubles), in my opinion, is more suitable for girls with dry or dry skin. Because it gives, despite the name, a wetter effect, and also varies more in terms of density. It can be applied in a dense layer, or it can be stretched to the lightest possible. It also adheres well to the skin and does not run away throughout the day. But, depending on the properties of the skin, it may start to shine a little in the evening.
As for lovers of very light coverage and barely noticeable foundation, then in this area there is no competition (at least for me) the coolest tone Lumene CC Cream(about 1100 rubles). It costs a little more than other mass-market products, but in terms of its properties and how it looks on the skin, it fully justifies its price. This CC cream looks absolutely natural on the skin with worthy tonal foundations with a light texture, this CC cream looks absolutely natural on the skin - you get a fashionable make-up without makeup, but at the same time it evens out the complexion, masks defects, moisturizes, protects against the negative effects of sunlight and suits all skin types.
Concealers
And again, one of the leading positions is occupied by a concealer for the skin around the eyes. Maybelline New York Fit Me(about 330 rubles), very similar in properties and coverage to the famous Prolong from M.A.C Cosmetics. It lays down very well, covers any redness, does not roll down and keeps well. By the way, it can also be used as a foundation and applied all over the face. It has a convenient applicator for application and a great price.
The second concealer you should have is Vivienne Sabo Ideal Sublime Concealer(about 200 rubles). It is much lighter in texture, slightly highlights the skin under the eyes. Due to its weightlessness, it is very good for daily use, plus it is superbly layered.
A worthy replacement for an expensive palette color correctors and highlighters - Maybelline New York Master Camo(about 750 rubles). His most winning option is the shade Light, which suits everyone. This creamy, thick cleanser has a greasy texture (don't let that scare you!). Better not to find if you need color correction or you are a fan of contouring like Kim Kardashian.
Powder is a disappointment. In my opinion, the situation with it in the mass market is the most deplorable. In any case, I did not come across anything with a decent composition and properties.
Tools for sculpting
If you are a fan of contouring (although this is all the last century) and love to emphasize or draw cheekbones not with dry, but with cream products, then you simply cannot do without a double-sided highlighter stick NYX Professional Makeup Wonder Stick(from 680 rubles). True, the only adequate cold shade in the line is Light, and the rest give off to yellowness. It can be used under the tone, if you are afraid to go too far, or on top of the tonal foundation. It is easy to apply, blends perfectly with your fingers, and for daily use it has no competitors.
And for dry sculpting, mono-blush is suitable NYX Professional Makeup High Definition in shade Taupe (about 590 rubles). They have a large palette of shades, so they are ideal for fair-skinned girls who find it very difficult to find the right color for sculpting blush. A more classic version of the dry sculptor is also in a very suitable color and with excellent properties - Estrade Mon Secret in shade No. 201 (about 200 rubles).
Eyebrow products
This is something that you can easily save on, since recently more and more worthy brow products of all possible types and shades have appeared in this segment. Cool clear brow gels Viviene Sabo Fixateur(about 200 rubles), color with the most correct shades and a brush that gives extra volume, L'Etoile Selection(about 650 rubles). Cool pencils Rimmel London(about 300 rubles), and the most persistent eyebrow lipsticks Bourjois Brow Pomade(about 440 rubles). The main thing here is to find the most suitable shade and texture for you.
Eyeshadow
Here the situation is more complicated. Shadows from the mass market in most cases are much less pigmented, crumble more and have a less interesting color palette. Therefore, you need to choose them more carefully and be sure to use a base (this will facilitate application and prolong durability). In terms of texture and color, you can find good mono-shadows in Estrade(about 145 rubles). In addition, successful options are often found in ready-made palettes, such as Maybelline New York The Nudes(about 600 rubles).
With cream shadows, the situation is slightly better. My biggest love is Bobbi Brawn cream eyeshadow, but this is a luxury. The coolest in the mass market (and hello again!) - Maybelline New York Color Tattoo, especially in beige, pink and brown shades - they can be used as a base under the shade. And they look cool daytime makeup. And with dark shades you can draw arrows, use instead of eyeliner even on the mucous membrane. It is better to apply them with your finger, it turns out a thinner and lighter layer. Color Tattoo eyeshadows last 24 hours or more.
The effect of a fashionable wet eyelid for light daytime smoky will help create cream eye shadow pencil Oriflame The One(about 500 rubles). Brown and beige shades are perfectly shaded with a finger. The only point is that they are not very resistant, but they are convenient to carry and easy to fix during the day.
Mascara
Mascara is something that is worth buying only in the mass market. Since after three months, according to the rules of operation, it will still have to be thrown away. Ink bestseller is, of course, Vivienne Sabo Cabaret(about 260 rubles). It is in the arsenal, perhaps, of every makeup artist. The second classic option, which is also one of the best in the business, is mascara. Maybelline New York Lash Sensational(about 560 rubles).
Eyeliners and pencils
All girls love arrows, so eyeliner is one of the most necessary funds in a cosmetic bag. The neatest and most beautiful lines are obtained using a brush and gel eyeliner that can be drawn Maybelline New York Lasting Drama(about 625 rubles) or with their own kayal pencil Master Drama(about 300 rubles). By the way, this is the love of many bloggers. The pencil is indecently resistant, super-pigmented, very soft and easy to shade.
Identical properties, shades and textures of the popular pencil M.A.C Cosmetics Coffee and brown pencil from H&M(about 300 rubles).
highlighter
This is a real must have for everyday makeup. It is indispensable for creating the effect of shiny, fresh and rested skin, as well as for contouring and strobing. Highlighters can be divided into dry and cream. The first create the effect of radiance with the help of sparkles in the composition (the finer the grinding, the more delicate the radiance). The second - create a wet effect on the skin and look more delicate. Among the budget highlighters, I like the cream stick essense Holo Wow(about 235 rubles). There are many different shades in the palette, but the coolest one is pink. It looks super cool when applied with your fingers over foundation. And also the same brand has a cool dry highlighter for the face Go For The Glow in shade No. 1 (about 450 rubles). With its help, an unobtrusive radiance appears on the face, as after Lime Crime highlighters.
lipsticks
Matte lipsticks due to their durability and unusual finish, they revolutionized lip makeup. They are especially popular during the cold season. The main thing is not to be afraid to experiment and find the most comfortable shade for yourself. Today, a huge number of budget versions are presented in the beauty industry, for example, NYX Professional Makeup, Nouba and Maybelline New York(the cost of each is about 500 rubles).
Remember that in any cosmetic product, its properties are much more important than its packaging. In general, if you wish, your daily makeup will not cost you economic losses. And when correct application the difference is unlikely to be detected even by an experienced makeup artist.
