5 Makeup Essentials Every Girl Should Have

BB/CC cream

One doesn't need to carry a foundation and a SPF separately, when a BB/CC cream solves the purpose of both. It gives a light coverage that is perfect for a few hours of socialising and also protects the skin from sun damage.

Multi-tasking palette

These tiny squares are multi-purpose and help solve a number of skin issues. Use these as shadow, blush, highlighter or for contouring, and you're good to go.

 Eyeliners

Be it gel, liquid or kohl (pencil) eyeliner, use these to adorn the eyes and give the face a glam look in the snap of a finger. Depending on the skin type, one can include any of these to the makeup kit.

Mascara

There is no better way to define eyes for a stunning look than enhancing eye lashes with mascara.

Lipstick

Lipstick can totally change the way you look. One can instantly transform the day look to a night look with a change of lipstick. For that bold, crisp and utterly polished look, lipsticks in tones of red, wine, bronze are a must have.
