Top makeup products you need in your makeup drawer

 Ask a makeupholic and they would say that there is nothing quite like finding a Holy Grail makeup product. It’s the type that you end up buying in multiples just in case it discontinues.

But hey, it feels like a new makeup product is launching every other day and it’s hard to separate the good ones from the average ones. As a die-hard makeup fan, you must be looking for help.

So, if you’re wondering what makeup products do I need, we have heard you! Let’s get into the list:

 1: Lip Pencil

Ever seen those stylists on TV, the internet, or social media and wondered what’s the secret to a lipstick that stays put? The answer to that, my friend is a good lip pencil. Create a fine lip outline and then put on your lipstick. Heck, you don’t even need to wear lipstick if you are using a good lip pencil. Just slide it on and top with a layer of good lip gloss. You are ready to go.

 2: Brow Gel

Eyebrows tend to little raggedy sometimes. Here, a brow gel comes to the rescue. Simply sweep it on and it fills the arches instantly. It’s a perfect makeup tool to plump your eyebrows without creating an unrealistic look.

 3: Creamy Powder Blush

In case you haven’t tried it, a creamy powder blush feels like heaven. It’s a dream to apply. The smooth texture makes it glide right onto your cheeks.  Go for the one that gives a shimmery finish in the end. This product works well on the temples and around the edges of your forehead too. I would certainly keep it in my makeup drawer!

 4: Concealer

A concealer is a must-have essential if you have dark circles or need color correction of any kind. Go for a sheer coverage one or the type that offers full coverage, depending on what you want to cover.

For dark circles, a pink or peachy-toned concealer works fine. On the other hand, if you are trying to cover discoloration or acne, choose the shade closer to the shade of your foundation.

 5: Lengthening and Curling Mascara

Look for a mascara that can take your eyelashes to a new height. The one with short bristles will help you catch every single lash and curl it up. 

 6: Foundation Stick

I hear you, in the age of liquid foundations, you wouldn’t want to be thinking about a foundation stick. But if you have messed up your makeup drawer because the liquid foundation leaked, then do check this out. It’s also easier to throw into your bag too. Look for a formula that easily blends in and leaves a nice matt finish.

 7: Lip Balm

Duh, everyone needs one!

This product will smoothen out and soften your flaky lips. Go for something hydrating like shea butter to nourish your lips without feeling too heavy.
