Who doesn't love make-up?We girls are obsessed with make up right from childhood when we see our mothers applying that lipstick in front of the mirror.I bet that in their absence,a lot of you must have secretly used your mothers make up too.Well,while we are at school we are restricted to put any make up but college is the time when we get some freedom and all of the college girls want to try their hand at make up and all the things related to beauty and look pretty on a daily basis.But like most of us,we are under a tight budget and cannot spend our entire pocket money on just make up products.
But don't worry girls,because i have got you all covered.I will talk about 5 make up products that you can buy without burning a hole in your pocket and just be perfectly turned out everyday.They are ideal for beginners and are multipurpose too.I will give some affordable brand recommendations too.So,keep on reading.
1.Kajal
It's no surprise here.Probably,the first make up product that us girls have tried our hand at is kajal.And why not,it makes our eyes look bigger and brighter and also makes us look less sleepy.I personally cannot step out of my house without putting kajal.
But other than that,a kajal can be used in a multiple ways.You can not only apply it on your lower waterline but also on your upper eyelid as an eye liner.You can also create a smokey eye look using just a kajal.So,it has to be on the top 5 list.
Some of the affordable options that you can choose from are:
- Lakme Eyeconic Kajal
- Maybelline New York- The Collosal Kajal
- Faces Canada Magneteyes Kajal
- Elle 18 Eye Drama Kajal
2.BB Cream
The next make up product that should be there in every college girls make up kit is a BB cream.While foundations are pretty high coverage on the face and also on the expensive side,a BB cream is pretty light coverage and does a good job at providing an even base.They are extremely comfortable and light especially for daily wear.They also come in handy and travel friendly packaging.One tip that i can give is that always go for a BB cream that has an SPF because that way you will protect your skin from the harmful UV rays too.
Some of the affordable options are:
3.Compact Powder/Face Powder
All that base you have put on your face,don't you want to conceal it?Especially in the summer season when all our make will start melting like an ice-cream just after a few minutes of stepping out.This is when a compact powder or a face powder will come to your rescue.It is a translucent powder that you can sweep across your face over the base that you have applied for a flawless matte finish.It will not only seal your base,but also protect it while you sweat.So,definately it is a must have.Don't forget to touch it up a few times in the day.
Some of the affordable options are:
- Blue heaven Matte Effect Compact Powder
- Maybelline New York Fit Me Compact
- Coloressence Compact Powder
- Lakme Perfect Radiance Compact
4.A Nude Lipstick
Gone are the days when hot pinks and deep browns and maroons and reds were the only lipstick shades that were available in the stores,nude lipsticks are the new rage now.And lets all admit that we don't want to sport such bold colours on an everyday basis.But we do want to add some colour to our lips.So,every college girl should definately have a nude lipstick that suits her skin tone and goes with every possible outfit.You can choose from a pinky,peachy or a brown nude shade.You can also apply your lipstick as a blush,so you get two things for the price of one!
Some of the affordable options are:
- Nykaa So Matte Lipstick- Naughty Nude 11 M
- Miss Claire Soft Matte Lip Cream - 31
- Lakme 9 to 5 Weightless Matte Mousse Lip and Cheek Colour - Rose Touch
5.Eyebrow Pencil
Girls,you should always fill your eyebrows because as you know eyebrows frame your face.You can always look put together just by doing your eyebrows.Your make up will also look on point if you have filled your eyebrows nicely.So,you should definately invest in a good eyebrow pencil.
Just remember to pick an eyebrow pencil in a brown shade and not a black one otherwise you'll end up looking weird.
Some of the affordable options are:

- Blue Heaven Artisto Eyebrow Roll With Styler
