Hi Jasmeen yes I started it about a month ago when I began class. I wanna build my kit but don't know where to start the products are expensive.

And thanks for the welcome @Jasmeen

You didn't get a kit as part of your class? I would start with the essentials and build your kit slowly.

They offer one but it's too expensive I wanted to build one until I can afford it.

What are the essential products to start with

I would say... Foundation, concealer, eyeshadows, lipsticks, lip liners, eyeliners, mascara, blush and setting powders and get a good set of brushes

You can build up with primers, highlighting and contouring, and more shades if products slowly
