Different Base Makeup Products And The Best Ones To Snag Right Now
Foundation
A foundation is non-negotiable if you want to nail a picture-perfect makeup base. It evens out the complexion and adds radiance too. Depending upon the type of foundation used, it can also minimise the look of pores and pigmentation.

Concealer
Concealer is a holy-grail beauty product that helps banish dark eye circles, brighten the under-eye area as well as contour your face to perfection. It gives a fresh-faced look by concealing under-eye darkness and pigmentation while making you look chiselled AF.
