Professional makeup artist and beautician Andrea Julio has compiled a list of basic products that you should keep in mind when putting on makeup.

Micellar Water: The skin is the first thing that should be taken into account when starting the makeup routine, since it is necessary to cleanse, tone and moisturize, so a good option is micellar water.

This product contains active ingredients that cleanse and remove make-up easily, leaving the skin hydrated and soft.

When using it, you should apply a little on a cotton pad and clean both the skin of the face, as well as the neck and décolletage. Rinse with water if necessary. Andrea suggests using a moisturizing cream or emulsion after using the micellar water.

Make-up base: This is an essential product in the make-up kit, so Andrea's recommendation is to look for a long-lasting base that provides excellent coverage and hydration, and that obviously matches the color of the skin. .

Its application should be with a brush or sponges, spreading evenly over the face.

One of the main questions that arise when using this product is whether to apply it before or after applying the eye shadow, since sometimes some shadows leave many particles that can stain the base. This will depend on the shadows you use.

Eye shadows: If you are one of those people who usually do not wear much makeup or in a very heavy way, when adding this product to your beauty routine you should lean towards neutral tones, such as brown and its entire palette of shades.

Eyeliner: Another product that cannot be missing from your makeup kit is eyeliner. There are different texture options, such as gel, liquid or pencil, for example. Your choice will depend on the one you feel most comfortable using.

The color options are also varied. The classic black could be replaced by dark gray or dark brown, a suggestion for those who do not want to give their look too much strength. Also for blonde or red-haired people.

Its application is on the mobile eyelid and as an option on the waterline of the eye.

Mascara: Andrea affirms that there is a wide range of proposals for this product, so sometimes it is almost an impossible mission to know which one to buy.

Lipstick or lip balm: This product will be used according to the needs or tastes of each person. The lipstick has a great covering power and at the same time moisturizes, while the balm provides very little color, but maximum hydration.
