Alright so I don't usually ever put make-up unless its a big occasion. And sometimes its just eyeliner, don't rrally know much about make up anyway so which basic make-up essentials do I require for a natural everyday look and what exactly do I do with it? :P

Nikkietutorials on YouTube I recommend you have a look at her videos, her more basic ones for techniques and applying foundation.

Foundation - to make sure the foundation will be the right tone either ask someone in your local beauty shop there always willing to help out or, using the testers they have trying the foundation on your neck! You don't want your head and neck to look different they need to blend as one.

You will make plenty of make up mistakes but it's working out what works for you.

Primer is great to use before applying foundation it prevents it from sliding. Make sure you get a foundation/powders for your skin type.

If you have a good girlfriend who wears make up and it does generally look good ask her to help you out selecting some make up.

Stay safe and keep it simple and once you get more confident with make up you can start experimenting with brighter colours.

Some good brands
Loreal
Revlon - highly recommend there foundation
Maybelline is okay wouldn't recommend foundations from them as they tend to go cakey.

It's more so trial and error first starting out or introducing yourself to more make up but have a look at nikkietutorials :)

some blush, sheer lipgloss, a shimmer natural eyeshadow all over your lid and a darker color in your outer v with some eyeliner and mascara, fill in your brows a little and tada your done and if you want you could add concealer if you do then dust on some powder on the spots were you put the concealer so that it won't move around
