I really don't think you need any makeup, you have a natural highlight to your face and your eyes at almond safe which is great maybe a little mascara and curl your lashes.Are you asking about foundation?

Start off with a facial moisturizer( aveeno positively radiant) and a foundation. I believe everybody starting out should use drugstore products. Go to target and ask the beauty expert that works there to help you pick out a foundation and a setting powder, use elf powder brush to blend ur foundation. First you moisturize, then take a dime size of foundation on the back of ur hand, then dot the foundation all over your face, then blend using the elf brush. Sett it with the powder. You can add blush to the apples of your cheeks and mascara. Skip the eyeshadow until you are more comfortable

You look great as you are. Your skin looks so flawless! I think you don't need foundation but maybe some lip color, mascara, and blush and you would be set. Wet n wild has some great blushes. Try berry shimmer and heather silk. They would look amazing on your skin! Milani mai tai and sunset beach are more great options. Also nyx copper and it's hard to find but black radiance soft honey. Those would be some great drug store options for blush for darker skin tones. Hope I helped!

God you're crazy gorgeous and ur skin is to die for!! I wish I was as lucky as you! but anyways, when I want to look natural I just do a light layer of foundation, a yellow concealer for my under eye circles and a cheek tint. I will always do my eyebrows no matter what and after thats done I set everything with powder, do a bit of contour if I feel like it and put on mascara and go on my merry way. Sometimes I will do a small cat eye, if I have time, or just feel like making my eyes pop.
As for what you can buy, it really depends. You could try a bb cream or a tinted moisturizer. I personally use Revlon Colorstay foundation, cuz my face is really oily and that seems to hold on well no matter what. For concelear it also depends on the coverage your looking for or if ur looking to correct any type of imperfections. For cheek tints, or more of a natural looking blush I suggest a cream blush. NYX has some very pretty ones you can check out. Hope I was helpful. =D

You're skin is amazing, so go for a tinted moisturizer-I recommend neutrogena healthy skin enhancer! For concealer, maybelline age rewind and maybelline dream lumi touch are great drugstore options. For powder-loreal true match has a ton of shades and works great to keep the tinted moisturizer/concealer in place all day. Blush-wet n wild, elf (at target), covergirl cheekers, and maybelline dream bouncy are good options. I recommend and eye primer for under eyeshadow, elf has a great 1.00 one. For eyeshadow, wet n wild and covergirl are nice. Maybelline and loreal have some good mascara, and I like covergirl lash blast too. For eyeliner- maybelline master drama for pencil, elf or maybelline for gel, and Revlon colorstay for liquid. Revlon has fantastic lip products for whatever type or color you are looking for! Also, ecotools and elf studio are good options for cheap makeup brushes. For a beginner kit, I recommend the elf studio 11 piece brush set. Ecotools has nice sets as well. Remember practice makes perfect when it comes to makeup! Hope this helped :)

If u wants to start wearing makeup I would recommend a tinted moisturizer for really light coverage cuz ur skin is amazing. U can highlight ur cheekbones nose and brow bones by using a shimmery gold highlight maybe mascara then ur good to go

Flawless, but if you wanna wear makeup, don't feel like you need foundation if you don't need it, maybe trying lip products will work better, Revlon has amazing lipsticks...
Now if eyeshadows are the thing you wanna try, start with wet n wild singles, they are pretty good and inexpensive, if you wanna try something bettwr makeupgeek eyeshadows are fabulous and soft and creamy textured if that make sense.
Always gurus say to apply a primer on your eyelids, which if you want your eyeshadow to last all day you should, if not oh well a bit of translucent powder to absorb any oil works too.
Now brushes, try drugstore brushes, i saw really good ones by soho on Walgreens, don't know if they carry them in all though, but a place i love getting brushes from is crownbrush.com
