What a Dubai Woman Needs to Have in Her Everyday Makeup Kit"},"content":{"rendered":"

Let me help you with your makeup kit makeover!\u00a0<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Too many makeup products, so little time and space! The massive quantity of makeup available in the market can make you confused on what to buy. As a professional makeup artist, I am guilty of product hoarding myself. Well, this is because I often use these products for my many different clients.<\/p>\n

But for daily makeup use, I can understand that it can be chaotic having multiple products you do not even use.\u00a0 This is the reason I often get asked by my friends and even my clients about what makeup products they should buy and really, it can be different depending on your lifestyle and your preference.<\/p>\n

However, I can recommend a very basic skeleton set<\/strong> for you. My advice is to first check what you already have, pick your favorites to keep, and buy the ones you do not have.<\/p>\n

BASIC MAKEUP KIT MUST-HAVES <\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"dubai<\/h2>\n

SKIN <\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moisturizer\/ Primer <\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the golden rule of makeup is prepping your skin. This is to avoid dry flaky canvas for your skin makeup. Make sure to use a moisturizer or primer. You do not need to buy an expensive one.<\/p>\n

Foundation\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Foundation comes in liquid, powder, cream or mousse form. The right shade can help you look flawless.<\/p>\n

Concealer <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you have dark circles and uneven skin tone, getting a great concealer is a good option to hide the discoloration.<\/p>\n

Loose Powder <\/strong><\/p>\n

Powder is essential to mattify your skin and not look greasy. It also locks in your makeup<\/p>\n

Choosing and applying proper skin makeup can be tricky. I know that it is not easy to know what type and shade of foundation and concealer to choose to fit your skin type. It can also be hard to achieve a smooth, flawless finish. This is why skin makeup is one of the things I prioritize in my VIP makeup course<\/u> <\/a>so I can help women like you to achieve proper makeup application. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\"dubai<\/strong><\/p>\n

COLOR <\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Lipstick <\/strong><\/p>\n

Even if you seldom wear makeup, you will surely have a lipstick lying around the house. Choose to have a nude\/pink shade and a brighter red shade to fit the occasion.<\/p>\n

Blush <\/strong><\/p>\n

Blush is a great way to add color to your cheeks. Choosing between powder or cream blush will depend on your skin type.<\/p>\n

Highlighter \/ Bronzer <\/strong><\/p>\n

Highlighters and bronzers used to be optional makeup products but for me, they are super important to add that extra oomph!<\/p>\n

\"dubai<\/p>\n

EYES<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Eyebrow Pencil \/ Powder <\/strong><\/p>\n

Choose a color one shade lighter than your eyebrow color. Pencils are better for beginners while powders and pomades are great if you have a steady, more experienced hand.<\/p>\n

Mascara <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you can have one mascara, buy a waterproof one that you can wear day or night.<\/p>\n

Eyeliner <\/strong><\/p>\n

Lots of Dubai women love their kohl eyeliners to add drama to the yes. You can also get a soft pencil or if you are more practiced, a liquid eyeliner for a cat eye is a basic requirement.<\/p>\n

Eyeshadow Palette <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are not much of an eyeshadow expert, start with a basic warm brown or smokey palette which can be versatile for the office and formal events.<\/p>\n

\"dubai\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

TOOLS & EXTRAS <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Beauty Blender \/ Sponge <\/strong><\/p>\n

I prefer a beauty blender but a cheaper option is a soft sponge you can buy in discount stores. This is good for putting foundation especially if you have large pores.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Blush Brush<\/strong><\/p>\n

This can be used for applying, blush, powder and highlighters.<\/p>\n

Eyeshadow Brushes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Investing in a good quality brush makes it easier to pick up pigment from the eyeshadow and transfer on your skin. I teach my VIP makeup course students the right eyeshadow brush to buy and use for their needs.<\/p>\n

Makeup Remover <\/strong><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget an effective makeup remover as well. Here\u2019s my LIST<\/u><\/strong> <\/a>of my favorite makeup removers available in UAE.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget my downloadable PDF Checklist<\/u><\/strong><\/a> with my recommendations!<\/h2>\n
