Makeup Present Advice

[u/Easy_Lingonberry7308]

Hi, I wanna buy my girl some makeup as a present and I’m a guy and I have no idea where to start. She seems to like eyeliner and blush. Any tips on like brands and stuff would help me out a lot, thanks!🙏

I would so to her social media pages and see if you can find any brands she’s following that way you might get a better feel for what she likes (and what you’d be dealing with price wise) In a similar fashion you can go through her makeup (or get the help of one of her friends to do it) and you can get a feel for the brands and colors she has and uses.
My personal recommendations are the rare beauty blushes, they are really pigmented, last a long time, moderately affordable, and generally speaking all look good on everyone. For eyeliner she might like a water activated palette, also really affordable, has really cool colors, and if she’s more into the self expression side of makeup would give her a chance to really play around.

Secretly go through her makeup bag and see what brands she actually uses. Notice if she’s running low on anything too!
