I don't usually wear make up, mainly because I never really learned how to put it on so I have no idea what suits me and what I should do. I have a mascara which is about 6 years old and that really is the extent of my make up bag.
I want to start wearing a little bit because I feel sort of un-polished and want to look more like I make an effort, especially at work.
My lovely DSis, whose make up always looks understated and very nice, has bought me a sort of starter kit but told me it would need supplementing. But I don't know with what!
She has bought me:
Lancôme eyeliner
Benefit mascara
Christian Dior eyeshadows
Benefit pore cream
Benefit complexion enhancer.
I have tweezers already for my eyebrows.
I have a few freckles, good skin and a fat face. I don't
want to wear concealer/foundation/powder. I'd like my eyes enhancing, but wear glasses. I wouldn't have a clue what to do with my lips - they are lucky to see Vaseline from time to time.
What, if anything, do I need to add to this?
And I imagine this lot wasn't very cheap - what could I get her if she likes those products to say thanks?
Thanks in advance.
