Um no offense but I really don't like bb cream and drug store ones kinda suck. before you buy anything always check YouTube out for reviews then go from there. many great make up artists say to always getva full coverage foundation because you can sheer it down to nothing!

You need a primer. The pruner separates the makeup from your skin so it doesn't clog your pores. It also makes your makeup stand out better and you wouldn't use as much.

So I must apply the bb cream first and then the primer? then the powder?

Use bb cream and a eyeshadow base, use highlighter mascara by maybelline and blush or Bronzer.

For everyday I maybe wouldn't buy a lipstick but maybe a balm with a hint of colour. As you're not wearing lots eyeshadow or anything either put a little brightening eyeshadow just in the corners to make your eyes stand out :)

I'd buy some primer, I personally don't think you need foundation, maybe some concealer, powder, mascara, and a nice eyeshadow pallet(:

I love BB cream.
And for me, powder.
I always set my foundation or bb cream with a good powder, I love physicians formula color control.
But I wouldn't use the brush it comes with, buy a nice soft fluffy one. I like elf.

Check out YouTube and look up something like "Makeup 101" to find beauty gurus that will explain EVERYTHING to you. That's how I found out about using makeup and what everything is for.

For everyday I would suggest bb cream, eyeliner, mascara, compact powder and a tinted lip balm or a subtle lip gloss. You can also use concealar if you have blemishes.
out of all bb creams available where I stay (India) Maybelline seems to be good. I haven't used it but heard great reviews.
if you have sensitive skin then please choose products wisely and read reviews before buying them.:))

Thanks Devyani:) I live in India too..what eye liner do you use? I'm using loreal professional..not amazing! it's ok..And what compact do you use? I'm using Revlon touch and glow and it's decent :)
