The Basics - What You Should Have in Your Collection

Hello Everyone!

Welcome Back to ABC!

 
I am extremely sorry for not posting on here for a while. Things have been very crazy, and I have been procrastinating. I will do another Update post in a week or so.
 
The other day, I had a request from a friend. Her request was to create a blog with a list of products that I think would greatly benefit any person that is either just starting to wear makeup, or anyone that just needs more makeup on a budget.
 
So, below, I am going to be giving my recommendations for Skin Care and Makeup, on a budget. I will be focusing mainly on drugstore products, but some will be from "highend" companies online, such as Morphe Brushes and Makeup Geek. I will link any products I find online.
 
I hope you enjoy! Please let me know if you have any questions on ANY of these products!
