I can still remember the items I had in my first makeup bag.
A fair few things I picked up free from magazines including my black eyeliner pencil and red and pink lip-glosses.
Like any true 2000s teen I had my Dream Matte Mousse foundation and a pink and purple eyeshadow and mascara from Boots No17.
I know what you’re thinking I must have looked only gorgeous. Hey I’ll have you know panda eyes and foundation that didn’t match your neck was very in at the time.
If you’re a teenager or you have a teenager that is starting to dabble in the world of cosmetics it’s not always easy to know what products would suit a starter makeup kit so I’ve put together a few suggestions on what I think would be some good products for a first makeup bag.
