 Makeup Hacks For First Timers - Easy Tricks For An Improved Makeup Routine

If you are just getting started with makeup, there's no reason to be overwhelmed. Everyone at some point has to start from scratch. The easiest way to navigate through this is to learn some basic hacks that let you look polished without putting in too much thought.


This book contains numerous hacks that are beginner-friendly and easy to use with the available products in Pakistan.



The Benefits of Makeup Hacks

Hacks are useful when you're starting out, and they will help you:


- Use your products to the fullest

- Avoid common mistakes  

- Streamline your individual process  

- Do more with less


With these hacks, you will be able to do your makeup in no time at all, making them suitable for college students, professionals, or any busy person.  



Beginner Tips You Have To Test



  1. Turning Lip Stick Into Blush

There will be times when you run out of blush, but have no fears. A little bit of lipstick on your checks can do the trick. Just remember to blend the lipstick well. 


Medora lipstick in Rose Petal or Coral Pink works best.


If you would like a true two-in-one, go for the Luscious Lip and Cheek Tint.

Visual Suggestion: Lipstick applied to the lips and cheeks.


  1. Apply your Concealer in a Triangle

Rather than using a thick line of concealer underneath your eyes, draw a triangle shape with the base against your eye area or cheekbone and the point of the triangle facing downward. The triangle shape brightens your whole face and will keep you from looking too cakey or made-up.


Local Options: 

Christine Stick Concealer 


Rivaj Liquid Concealer.  

Visual Suggestion: A diagram comparing triangle shape to swiping under eyes.



  1. Use a Spoon or Tape for Winged Eyeliner 

If you're struggling with a wing, try to angle a spoon or some tape at the corner of your eye. This way, you get an easy and clean wing!   


Product to Try:

Rivaj Liquid Eyeliner (with a fine brush tip).   

Visual Suggestion: step by step shots of taping trick for eyeliner.  



  1. Set with a Damp Sponge, Not a Brush. 

After you have applied your base, go back in with a damp makeup sponge and gently dab your product into your skin. This allows for a more natural and longer-lasting look!

  1. Store Rose Water Spray for a Crazy Quick Refresh

Makeup looking dry or cakey? One spritz of rose water and we've got the freshness and dewiness back—perfect when we’re stuck in long uni or work days.


Pakistani Options: 

WB by Hemani Rose Water


Saeed Ghani Rose Mist

Visual Cue: Spraying rose mist on a face with a glowy finish.


Final Thoughts

Makeup doesn’t need to be complicated, especially if you are just learning. These hacks are not just clever, but they are realistic and easy enough to adopt on a day-to-day basis.


Use what you have. Keep it simple. But most importantly, have fun learning! 


You got this!
