Make your Instant Makeup Kit

A well maintained makeup kit saves your time any day! How? Well, it provides you with anything and everything that you need in order to make touch ups just before those emergency evening meetings. Here is what you need to put in the kit.

But first, let’s put all things together on your table or bed. Sort your cosmetics and other applications. Read expiry dates and remove all old and unwanted stuff. In the kit we only want clean and ready to use materials.

Expired, unclean applicators and cosmetics may cause serious skin infections. It is therefore essential to keep all the materials in usable condition. Also, avoid buying cheap cosmetics. Foundation and concealer are must-haves.

They will hide sores, blemishes and provide skin with an even tone. A blush will provide an instant youthful look. A nice eyeliner and eye shadow too must be present in your kit. Eye-shadow, when properly applied according to the skin tone, may hide sagging eyes and dark circles.

Powders with thin sponge pads can help maintain your foundation for longer periods hence another make-up kit essential.

Then is the option for seasonal makeup essentials. In summers, sun-screens should always be present in the kit. Instant face-wipes should also be present to keep skin clean and fresh looking. If you have a normal skin then keeps cotton and rose water in handy. Rose water spray can also be used to keep face fresh. Matt based moisturizer is must since the heat may take away all moisture.

In winters, a good hand cream and face moisturizer must always be present. A friend of mine simply swears by the effectiveness of glycerin and aloe Vera water as moisturizer mixture.

No matter what be the season a nice lip balm must be present in your kit always. Use strawberry or cherry based lip balms throughout the year. Carrot oils based are also effective moisturizing balms.
