Base Makeup: Foundation/Concealer/Compact Powder Whether your skin has zero tolerance for cream-based makeup, or whether you prefer something powder- or liquid-based, the right kind of base makeup (foundation, concealer or compact powder) is not only your best friend, but also the canvas on which the rest of the makeup is applied. Depending on your skin type and tone, pick the one you are most comfortable with. Lipstick Bold reds, pretty pinks or rich neutrals, lipsticks are the ultimate picker-upper. Whether you like bright pop colours or classy nude shades, glossy or matte, there is literally every shade in every style available to choose form. Ideally, opt for one with good staying-power and finish. Remember, makeup trends may come and go but a lipstick never goes out of style. Eyeliner We see with them, we talk with them, we flirt with them - eyes are not just the window to our soul, but also one of the sexiest parts of the body. Paired with the right waterproof liquid liner, kohl, or pencil, they can instantly up your glam quotient and make an onlooker go weak in the knees.
