Fact: Building your first-ever makeup kit can be intimidating—especially if you're a beginner. There are tons of products available in the market that cater to different skin types, plus various recommendations from our favorite celebs and influencers. When you're just starting out, however, there are items you don't really need just yet. Budget can also be an issue, especially if you're still a student or a fresh grad.
Need a helping hand? We got you! Ahead, we list down five basic makeup products that will enhance your natural beauty and make you look presentable within 10 minutes—even during lazy days! Check them out below:

3. Maybelline Hypercurl Mascara
We love it when an affordable makeup product works just as well—if not better—than expensive ones. Maybelline's Hypercurl proves that by being smudge-proof and waterproof for at least 36 hours. It'll definitely last all throughout a full day of face-to-face classes!

Don't be deceived by this white lip balm from Careline. The Magic Serum Stain actually reacts to your lips when applied to give you a fun pink shade that's unique to you. It also leaves a pretty stain that is smudge-proof and long-lasting.
