A makeup kit box is an answer to your prayers if you struggle to pick out various make-up products like a primer, foundation, mascara, lip colour, sealer, and other items that form part of a complete makeup regimen or a professional makeup kit. Full glam makeup typically includes a flawless base, soft contouring, a dramatic eye and a bold lip. Following a step-by-step tutorial can help you create a flawless, glam makeup look at home.

Skincare:

A good and healthy skincare is a key to a plumpy and glowy makeup. If you skip your skincare routine before wearing makeup, you risk having uneven, spotty coverage that fades much too quickly. A well-prepped face before applying makeup not only smooths the skin for foundation application but also helps the makeup last significantly longer than usual.

Makeup brushes:

Makeup brushes are a necessary tool for every makeup lover. Whether you're a professional or a novice, there are some brushes you should have in your collection to help make cosmetics application easier. You truly only need a 3-4 brushes if you are a beginner – a flat eyeshadow brush, a crease brush, eyeliner brush and a blush/powder bronzer brush. That's it!!! However, once you are beyond the beginner level there are a few more brushes that come in useful and will complete your set. I have listed them below. Natural makeup brushes are made of animal hair (often sable, squirrel or goat) and, for this reason, tend to be more expensive than synthetic brushes. The real hair offers a super soft feel and makes blending a breeze. But use patting, stippling motions to blend seamlessly rather than wiping along the skin, which could leave streaks or disturb the texture of the makeup too much. Not only will it save you from wasting any product, but it'll make your makeup application more even and smooth with a streak-free, flawless finish.

Types of Makeup Brushes: The Complete Guide to Makeup Brush Names & Uses:

  • General Face Brushes
  • Powder Brush.
  • Tapered Foundation Brush.
  • Stippling Brush.
  • Kabuki Brush.
  • Contour Brush.
  • Silicone Blender.
  • Beauty Blender.

Removing makeup:

1. Your daily cleanser should be sufficient to take off foundation and blush. Massage the cleanser over your face and let it sit for 15 seconds, and don't forget your hairline, under your chin, and around your ears. Then wipe with a wet, white cotton washcloth, so you can really see that all the makeup is gone.

2. Micellar water is a great universal makeup remover that can tackle eye makeup, lipstick and more, plus it's gentle on sensitive skin. Use it on a cotton pad to sweep away makeup before you cleanse your face.

3. Coconut oil has a creamy texture at room temperature, making it less messy to use than liquid oils. Put coconut oil on a cotton ball or washcloth and smooth it over entire face as a skin moisturizer, removing makeup as I go. The oil will soak into the skin in about ten minutes, leaving your skin soft and makeup-free.
