If you love, live and breathe makeup, then you need these makeup essentials in your bag. After all, you never know when you might bump into your ex, right?

Concealer

A concealer is a fab product to keep with you at all times. Even on the days you don’t feel like applying foundation, just dab your concealer to hide your acne scars or dark circles and we bet you’ll look fresh as a daisy.

Pro Tip: To instantly look lively, dab a few drops of concealer (at least 1-2 shades lighter than your skin tone) under your eyes and dab it using your fingers.

CC Cream

Do not like the way foundation sits on your skin? Then a CC cream it is! Unlike your foundation, a CC cream feels lighter on the skin and is also sometimes infused with skincare benefits. Just squirt out some product on your face and spread it all over your face & neck for an even finish.

Pro Tip: Mix a few drops of CC cream with your concealer to turn into a full-coverage makeup base.

Makeup Sponge

 

A beauty sponge is your solution to a seamless makeup base. Just wet it and use it to apply your foundation or other cream-based products such as blush or contour.

Pro Tip: If you are going for a ‘naturally pink’ makeup look, then apply a ton of blush on bare skin, followed by the application of foundation. Use your makeup sponge to dab everything, naturally.

Lip And Cheek Tint

 

A colour tint is such an underrated makeup product! You can use it to add a flush of colour to your cheeks, lips and even lids. Just run your finger into the pot and pat, pat, pat!

Pro Tip: After you’ve applied your lipstick (preferably liquid), dab some tint in the middle of your lip and slowly pat it for an ombre effect. We know, genius!

Liquid Highlighter

Want to blind out the haters? Then you need to get your hands on a liquid highlighter. Apart from being super pigmented, you can use it many ways than one; as an eyeshadow topper, to add a metallic touch to your lips, to bronze your legs, and what not!

Pro Tip: Mix some liquid highlighter with your daily moisture and voila, your DIY strobe cream is ready to be used.

Eyeliner Sticker

The best way to upgrade any eye makeup is to do a graphic eyeliner look. But what if you are in a cab and just got to know that your crush is going to be at the party? Yup, panic mode is definitely on!

Do you know what can save the day? Eyeliner stickers! The MyGlamm LIT Stick-On Wing Liners are just the makeup staple you defo need in your makeup kit. Just peel off, stick them on and slay.

Pro Tip: If you want your eyes to do all the talking, then keep the rest of your makeup to a minimum. But if you’re thinking about applying tons of highlighter, do not stop till it is enough to be seen from space.

Mascara

No makeup look is ever complete without applying mascara. Yup, even on the days you’re not wearing any makeup, just apply your mascara and you’re good to go.

Pro Tip: You can totally use your mascara to define your brows as well. Simply brush them from top to bottom to make ’em sparse and then from the inner to the outer corner to define them further.

Liquid Eyeshadow

Liquid eyeshadows are awesome to add a pop of colour to your lids as they’re easy to apply, move around and simply transform your look in a matter of few seconds. If you are a makeup beginner, then you need them in your life, STAT!

Pro Tip: You can totally create a kickass cat eye using a liquid eyeshadow if you do not feel like covering your entire lid with it.

Lip Palette

 

Why spend so much money on lipsticks when a classic lip palette is all you need? Simply scoop out some product on a makeup dish to mix and match. You can also add some loose glitter fragments for an impromptu DIY glitter lipstick.

Pro Tip: Lip palettes are the backbone of the makeup world. Not only to create a custom lip shade every time, but you can also use them on other parts of your face. Eg: you can use the darker shades to carve your cheekbones or lighter shades to use as a blush.
