#1 Cleansers

One of the rules of applying makeup is that you need to always start with a clean slate. Your face is your canvas and cleansers make sure that dirt, excess oil, and other forms of impurities do not damage it in the long run. It also saves you from getting that ugly shine caused by excessive oiling. If you’re the kind who’s always out and about then cleansing pads are just perfect for you.

#2 Lip Balm

Even if you’re going to wear a lipstick, remember to bring a lip balm everywhere you go. Keep those lips moisturized. Lip balms also have other weird uses that you might find helpful aside from protecting your lips from drying and chapping.

#3 Face Moisturizer with SPF

With the known dangers of being exposed to the sun, there’s a great need for us to stock up on beauty products with high and wide spectrum SPF. Face moisturizers are a must-have when it comes to beauty care. Aside from giving you that soft and moist look, it also prevents the onset of skin aging.
