The $30 Challenge!


You don't want to spend an arm and a leg on makeup and then have no money to go out and show it off- JennLo 1CL
 
The Makeup Challenge!
 
Every girl who loves makeup needs a start. A place to begin as far as what products does she need, which ones are a must have or an option, which items should she splurge on and which items can she save a buck or two on. 1ClassLadies have been feeling out different products both drugstore as well as high end beauty products. Here we have put together a $30 challenge. If your just beginning there is no need to spend big dollars until you know exactly what its you want as far as a look and what you want the products to do for you. So ladies grab a pen and paper to take notes. We are going to help you pick out the must have products for an everyday look without killing your pocket.Ready... Set... Lets GO!!


 
Lets start with the face. If your going to get a foundation pick one that is right for you so KNOW YOUR SKIN TYPE. Oily, dry, normal, do you need full coverage, etc. JennLo from 1ClassLadies loves using Revlon Colorstay foundation. It comes in all styles for all skin types,great coverage and oh course affordable.  
                                                                        Total: $10.19 @ Target
 
 
 
 
 
To set your foundation we use a powder. Revlon powder is great but since we are doing a $30 challenge we had to pick another product. Try the E.l.f translucent powder. Its white in the container but goes on clear which makes it great for anyone.
                                                                Total: $6.00  Target
 
 
 
 
 
 
Now though you can set your foundation with the warmth of your fingers you can also utilize a sponge or foundation brush. The translucent powder comes with an applicator but we prefer you use a powder brush as the applicator that's provided for you applies to much of the powder.
                                                                Total: $1.00 @Target
 
 
 
 

 
For the eyes a wing line is enough for an everyday look. Eye shadows are optional and not a must so if you do not apply any it is okay. A wing eye adds a little spice without over doing your face so it can be worn for any occasion.Try Wet & Wild eyeliner as an affordable liner. The thicker the line the more intense the look if you like.
                                                                               Total:$3.00 @ Rite Aid
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For your lips 1ClassLadies love ALL brands. For a reasonable pricing lipstick you can try the Wet & Wild lipsticks and combine it with a lip liner. Don't forget if you buy a color that is to bright you can darken it with a darker liner. This way you do not have to through away the lipstick you purchase or let it sit there and go to waste.
                     Total: $2.59 lipstick/ $1 lip liner @ Rite Aid
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Cheeks can be whatever color you want- Pink, peach, etc.  Blush can be playful which is always fun. Try the NYX blush which 1ClassLadies find to be a good brand for anyone.
                      Total:$4.50 @ any beauty supply store
 
 

GRAND TOTAL: $28.28
 
This is just a starter kit for people who are jut getting into makeup and need an inexpensive start. By no means are we saying this is the ONLY products but we hope we helped some people who had no where to begin. 1stClassLadies have used each of these products either now or at some point in time and feel they are all good beginning tools.
