Makeup Fundamentals that a Beginner Should Know

Before the application of makeups, certain fundamental facts need to be considered.


What Does ‘Natural Makeup’ Really Mean?

"Natural" doesn't mean "no" makeup. "Natural" means soft, clean, and effortless makeup. Your face still looks like skin, and you can see what you’re looking like.


 Gold Rules of Natural Makeup

  • Always prep your skin
  • Apply thin layers
  • Mix all well
  • Products for different skin tones
  • Don’t look until you think it’s heavy



Necessary Makeup Items for New Users


You don't necessarily require a lot of makeup. Just start with the basics.

  • Cleanser
  • Moisturizer
  • Sunblock (day)
  • BB cream or Light foundation
  • Concealer
  • Compact or loose powder

Eye Products

Step by Step Beginner Makeup Tutorial for Natural Makeup

Now, let’s break down each step in more detail, so that beginners understand why each step in the process is important.


STEP 1 - Skin Preparation (Never Skip This Step)


Good makeup begins with good skin. If your skin is either dry, oily, and/or dirty, your makeup will neither lie flat nor look good.


How to Prep Your Skin Correctly


1. Wash your face

Use a gentle cleanser to eliminate dirt, oils, and sweat.


2. Use moisturizer

Moisturizer will help to hydrate your skin as well as prevent your makeup from appearing blotchy


3. Use sunscreen (daytime only)

Protection from the sun prevents premature aging.


Never skip moisturizer, even if you have oily skin



STEP 2 - Apply Primer (Optional but Helpful)

To complete this step, the primer should be made smooth. This will make it easier for

Primer can be used, though it ensures a smooth finish for makeups.


What Primer Does

  • Smooths skin texture
  • Minimizes pores
  • Oil controller
  • Assist in holding the makeup in place


How to Apply Primer

  • Take pea sized amount
  • Primarily on T-zone areas (forehead, nose, chin)
  • Gently pat but do not rub

Allow it to rest for 30 seconds, then proceed to the next step.



STEP 3: Base Makeup – Even Out Your Skin Tone


A beginner should always go for light coverage. A full coverage foundation will look cakey.


Best Base Products for Beginners

  • BB cream
  • Tinted moisturizer
  • Light Coverage Foundation


How to Apply Base Makeup

1. Spot small amounts on the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin

2. Blend outward with your fingers, sponge, or brush

3. Emphasize the merging of edges around the hairline and jaw

If your skin is already looking good, you don’t need to go for full coverage.



 Step 4: Concealer – Correct, Don’t Cover Everything

Concealer should only be used where needed.


Areas to Use Concealer

  • Under eyes
  • Acne spots
  • Redness around nose
  • Dark marks / Dark spots


How to Apply Concealer Correctly

  • Only a little bit
  • Touch with fingertips or sponge
  • Blend edges smoothly

Layers shouldn’t be thick—with natural makeup, it’s better to have skin visible underneath.



STEP 5: Setting with Powder (Light Hand Only)


Powder will help to fix your makeup and reduce shine.


How to Apply Powder

  • Utilize a fluffy brush
  • Apply powder on oily areas lightly
  • Concentrate on the nose, forehead, and chin

Applying too much powder can make their skin appear to be dry and flat



STEP 6: Eyebrows – Frame Your Face Naturally

Eyebrows shape your face more than any other feature


Beginner Eyebrow Tips

  • Choose a shade that resembles your natural eyebrow color
  • Fill only sparse areas
  • Stick to your natural eyebrow shape


How to Do Natural Eyebrows

1. Brush brows up

2. Lightly fill gaps

3. Mix with a spoolie

The eyebrows should not be too dark, blocky, or too sharply



Step 7: Eyeshadow - Soft Definition for Beginners


Natural eyeshadow adds depth without drama


Most Suitable Eyeshadow Colors for Beginners

  • Beige
  • peach
  • Light brown
  • Soft taupe


Simple 2-Shade Method

1. Use light shade on eyelid

2. Use slightly darker shade on crease

3. Blend well

Incorporation is more significant than coloring.



STEP 8: Mascara – Open Up Your Eyes

Mascara instantly makes eyes look brighter and more awake


How to Apply Mascara Properly

  • Curl lashes, if preferred
  • One thin coat should apply.
  • Wiggle wand from root to tip

Don’t let clumps form, opt for a soft lash



STEP 9: Blush – Bring Life Back to the Face


Blush adds a healthy glow


The Best Blush Colors For Beginners

  • Peach
  • Soft Pink
  • Nude rose

How to Apply Blush

  • Smile slightly
  • Used on apples of cheeks
  • Blend upward towards the temples

Cream blush color gives the most natural effect.



STEP 10: Lips - Soft and Natural Finish

Lips complete the look, lips finish off the facial features.


Beginner-Friendly Lip Options

  • Tinted lip balm
  • Nude lipstick
  • Clear or soft gloss

Select the ones nearest to your natural lip color.



 Common Makeup Mistakes For Beginners

  • Using too many products
  • Not Blending
  • Inappropriate foundation shade
  • Skincare routine skipping
  • Heavy contouring


Makeup Tools That a Beginner Truly Needs

  • Beauty sponge
  • Powder Brush
  • Blush Brush
  • Eyeshadow Blending Brush

Clean your tools once a week to prevent breakouts.


Natural Makeup For All Skin Types

Oily Skin

  • Matte finish
  • Light powder


Dry Skin

  • Moisturizing products
  • Powder minimal 


Combination Skin

  • Balance both techniques 



Beginner Makeup FAQ 

Maker Culture How long does beginner makeup take? 

  • Approximately 10–15 minutes to practice. 


Is Makeup Bad for Skin?

  • No, if removed correctly and skin care is followed.


By reflecting, Makeup is an art, not talent. The more you practice, the better you will become. Natural makeup is a great start for beginners who want to learn while looking fresh and confident.
