The ideal makeup bag isn't the fullest one — it's the one with exactly what you need. Here's what to have as a starting minimum to always look polished.
10 Essential Products
- SPF moisturizer — the foundation of everything
- BB or CC cream — light daily tinting
- Concealer — for dark circles and spot corrections
- Primer — for longevity
- Brow pencil or powder — brows change your face faster than anything
- Mascara — for an expressive gaze
- Blush — adds life to the face
- Highlighter — one touch for a glow effect
- Nude lipstick or tint — final accent
- Setting spray — extends longevity and refreshes
✦ Valeria's Tip
Start with the minimum and add products gradually. Better to have 5 products you know how to use than 30 collecting dust.
