Clear Mascara
When you think of clear mascara the first thing that comes to mind is probably “teenager product” but don’t underestimate it. Clear mascara is great for adding natural definition and lift to the lashes and can also be used to tame the brows.
Lipstick
A lip colour is the perfect product for brightening up the face and finishing off a look. Whilst lipsticks have the obvious use of on your lips they can also work great as cream blushes! Just rub a small amount inbetween your fingertips and blend over the cheeks.
Liquid Highlighter
Although many people are confused and wary of highlighters, they should be an essential in everyone’s makeup kit. One of the most multi-tasking products, a liquid highighter/illuminator can be used to highlight (just dab on the highest points of the face, like the cheekbones) or mixed with your moisturiser (or primer and foundation if you have them) to help create a radiant glow to the skin. Highlighters can also look especially pretty when used on the eyelids and patted over the top of lipsticks.
Brown Eyeliner Pencil
Brown eyeliner (or a brow pencil) is often classed as a rather boring product, but it is also an essential one. Use it to shape & define your eyebrows, as an eyeliner or as an eyeshadow/eyeshadow base by smudging it over the eyelids.
Plain Black Mascara
Lashes coated with mascara instantly make your face look more awake and lively and it’s kind of remarkable how much it can change your look. Wiggle two to three coats through your lashes for volume and definition or simply brush through them with the wand to create a small amount of darkness to the lashes. Depending on the mascara you can also use a small amount of it on an angled brush for a quick and easy liquid eyeliner.
