What Basic Makeup Essentials do you need?

Imagine all of your basic makeup essentials organized into an easy to use, coordinated system for getting ready. Sounds perfect, right?

Okay, now let’s think about reality.

If you are like most women, your makeup clutter is creating a small landfill in your bathroom. Your drawers of makeup are approaching hoarding status, and you don’t know what basic makeup essentials you need… or where to even find them.

What Makeup Essentials do you Need?

As a makeup artist, I have heard the same things over the years from clients and friends. Things like:

“I have a drawer full of makeup that I don’t know how to use.”
“I have five lipsticks that are all the same color.”
“I bought this but I don’t remember how to use it.”
“I never really learned how to put on makeup so I just don’t do it.”
“I’ve done the same makeup routine for X years.”

Does any of this sound familiar? If you are confused about what basic makeup essentials you even need to use, then I can help you.

If you are frustrated because you waste so much time getting ready in the morning, digging through your makeup drawer to find that one lipstick… I have a solution.

I am excited to share with you my new, free email course called Create Your Capsule Makeup Collection. This FREE email course will help you build (or pare down) your basic makeup kit.

Basic Makeup Essentials

If you are ready to get rid of makeup clutter once and for all, then you need to create a makeup capsule wardrobe to help you condense and organize your stash.

So what is a makeup capsule collection anyway?

Well, you might have seen one of the many articles in fashion magazines about creating capsule wardrobes for your closet.

The basic idea is that you go through your closet and eliminate what no longer fits or is in fashion. Then, you create a minimalist capsule collection of only the basic pieces that you actually need and will wear.

All of your clothes are designed to be interchangeable, so you never have to worry about whether things go together or not. And as the seasons change, you just add different pieces to your minimal core wardrobe.

How to Build Your Capsule Makeup Collection

In Create Your Capsule Makeup Collection, we will use the concepts of building a capsule wardrobe and apply it to your makeup drawer.

You will learn to build your minimalist makeup kit with the basic makeup items that you need, and will actually use.

You might surprised that as a makeup artist, I am recommending you own less makeup. What? Sounds a bit out of the ordinary, right?

Well, I simply don’t believe that you need to have more makeup, because most women don’t.

They just need help finding out what makeup is best for them, and then how to apply it. And that’s where I come in, with a little straightforward advice and a few bad jokes (because I just can’t help it).
