Whether you're 13 or 30, starting your makeup journey can feel like entering a secret society—one with gatekept tips, confusing tutorials, and way too many products.
If you’ve ever stared at a beauty aisle wondering “why are there fifteen kinds of brushes just for eyeshadow?” — you’re not alone. Here at astrobabe, we think that makeup should be fun, expressive, and beginner-friendly. Not a part-time job.
So here’s our guide to easy makeup for beginners: products that actually make sense, don’t require a pro-level skillset, and still make you feel hot AF 💋
Let’s break it down :)
🧼 Step 1: Start with Skin You Feel Good In
You don’t need a 12-step skincare routine to prep for makeup. But clean, moisturized skin = your best canvas.
🪄 Beginner tip:
-
Use a lightweight moisturizer or tinted SPF (bonus: glowy skin AND protection).
-
Skip foundation if it feels heavy—try concealer only where needed (under eyes, around nose, blemishes)
✨ Product types to look for:
-
Tinted SPF
-
Cream blush (doubles as lip color)
-
Lightweight concealer pens
👁️ Step 2: Make Eyeshadow the Easiest Step (Not the Scariest)
Okay real talk—eyeshadow is where most beginners tap out. Too many colors, too much blending, not enough guidance.
That’s why we created Shadow Tatt — the first-ever 5-second press-on eyeshadow that gives you a pro-level look with zero effort.
📌 How it works:
-
Press the oval applicator onto your eyelid
-
Smooth with your fingertip for 5 seconds
-
Peel off from either side of your eye
-
Blend the edges (if you want)
That’s it. No expertise, no fallout, no patchiness. Just fire eyeshadow in five seconds flat.
🪞Perfect for:
-
Beginners who’ve never worn eyeshadow before
-
People who suck at blending (we’ve all been there)
-
Quick get-ready moments (school, dates, work, festivals)
👉 Shop Shadow Tatt here and choose from graphic designs, duo tone solids, and bold colors. All beginner-proof. All reusable.
💄 Step 3: Choose Products That Multi-Task for You
You don’t need a giant makeup bag. You just need smart, intuitive products that do more than one thing.
🔥 Beginner-friendly makeup staples:
-
Cream blush = blush + lip tint
-
Highlighter stick = cheek glow + inner eye shimmer
-
Brow gel = holds brows + can double as mascara for a natural look
🛸 Pro tip: Aim for blendable creams and chubby sticks over powders. They’re easier to control and less intimidating to use.
🧑🎤 Step 4: Forget Rules, Go With Vibe
You don’t need to “master neutral tones” or “match undertones” to look amazing. You just need one thing: products that match your energy.

🦄 Channeling main character energy? Layer color on color. You are the moment

That means:
-
👩🦽 Accessible for disabled users (no grip strength or brushwork required)
