First time/ what’s my complexion

I need help with make up like what do I use to start with what’s my make up color for my skin 

Re: First time/ what’s my complexion

Your best bet is to go into the store for a colour match. Make sure you know your skin type (dry, oily, sensitive etc.) decide what kind of coverage you need/want. Lots of people like full coverage, but there is also medium and light. Coverage will partially depend on you skin as well. 

As a beginner, I would keep it simple. Make sure you have a good skin care routine and a suitable moisturizer.  You can probably skip primer starting out. Maybe try foundation, possibly a setting powder, blush, mascara and lip tint or gloss. A couple brushes appropriate for your foundation and blush.

 

I would recommend watching YouTube for basic make up or beginner make up.  You don’t necessarily need all the products that you may see. Perhaps wait till you get comfortable with your new products and gain more knowledge to see what you are interested in or would like to try.  Hope that helps.
