Hey I'm a beginner.. I mostly use foundation, eyeliner and mascara. The foundation is maybe like 2 times a week but I always wear mascara lol. Any tips?

Setting your foundation with a powder helps it last longer & remain it's original, pretty finish. :)
Defining/filling your brows with either a pencil, wax &/or powder will define your face for a more polished look.
A little blush or bronzer can add warmth & color to your face which can improve or change any look. :)

I'll post more if I think of some. :D

I know when I just started out I used blush right away. A little colour on your cheeks helps to brighten your face and makes you look just a bit more put together.

Lip gloss is also great. It's easy to work with and it can completely change up your look.

I deifnitely agree, blush is a super fun and easy way to add more to your makeup. Also if you're big on mascara, give curling your lashes first a try! It changes everything and it'll really help to open up your eyes.

A great tip to know if you're first starting out is if you're going to wear eyeliner, don't put it JUST on your lower lashline. Sometimes I wish someone had told me that when I started out with make-up.... lol. It makes the eyes look droopy and tired, but if you apply eyeliner to the upper lash line, it lifts the eye and makes you look more awake.
I would also recommend checking out the Bobbi Brown Make-up Manual, it's a great book for learning a lot of things about make-up and skincare!
Good luck!

Defiantly try some blush and bronzer out it adds just so much to your face without much work.

I might recommend wet n wild ultimate minerals bronzer in amber glow, it is a great hybrid of blush and bronzer, it is like a bronzed pink coral, I imagine it would be a beautiful highlight on your skin tone.

I would also recommend any of Milani's minerals blush in mai tai, it is a bright coral color and would add a lovely flush to your cheeks. It is very pigmented how ever so you would want to use a very light hand.
