Products I recommend for young women starting to wear makeup

I get a lot of Mom’s asking me to give their teenage daughters makeup lessons. I always tell my young clients that less is always the way to go. Here are some of the products that I recommend to my young clients.

Facial Cleanser – Philosophy Purity Made Simple

Philosophy Purity Made Simple is a ph-balanced formula that rapidly dissolves dirt and makeup while deep cleaning pores. The best-selling cleanser contains infusions of sage, chamomile, and carrot.

Philosophy Purity Made Simple 16 oz

Foundations – bareMinerals Get Started Kit

The award-winning foundation provides impeccable coverage for every skin type and tone, and also protects with a natural SPF 15 broad spectrum UVA/UVB shield. It gives you the coverage you desire without any preservatives, fillers or binders. It’s makeup so pure you can sleep in it.

It also comes with an instructional DVD.

Bare Escentuals Sephora Exclusive Get Started Kit – Medium ($174 VALUE for $60) Light


Color – Sephora Brand Color Play Palette

This is a great first color palette. The palette includes everything she needs for a fun, flirty spring and summer look. The colors are pretty but not too highly pigmented for a first time makeup user so it will be easy for her to apply.

The palette includes:
– 36 eyeshadows
– 12 lip glosses
– 3 blushes
– bronzer
– 3 applicators
