I’m 23 and I really wanna get into makeup more seriously but I’m so lost on what to buy. I obviously don’t want to buy everything, especially because I have a sensitive skin and I’m leaning towards better quality/more expensive brands. So far I’ve ordered: lipstick, lip liner, eyeshadow, eyebrow pencil, and foundation. I know I need an eyeliner and primer. What else? I see all these bronzers and luminizers and concealers… I don’t really need them all, do I? And do I need a different primer for eyes? I see those sold separately. If you also have any recommendations for application tools I’m super happy to hear about that too. Thanks a bunch!

    If you have super sensitive skin, check out Tower 28, they’re the only beauty brand that uses 100% ingredients approved by the national eczema foundation: https://www.tower28beauty.com/pages/philosophy
    I learned about this the other day and found it pretty cool! I don’t have super sensitive skin, I just swatched their concealer and lip jelly in sephora and really liked it.

    Personally, I use the same primer all over my face. A lot of “clean beauty” brands (Ilia, Kosas, even Haus Labs) have skincare ingredients in them already, and don’t “need” a primer before using for the full effect. Personally, if you’re just starting out, I would grab a concealer for under the eyes because it can really brighten up your face.

    If you’re starting out with eyeliner, I really recommend starting with crayons, pencils, and eyeshadows before using liquid eyeliner because it’s a little unruly.
