After all that effort putting together the perfect look, the last thing you want is for your makeup to start slipping off before your work day has even begun. Enter setting spray. As the last step in your beauty routine, a few spritz can hold your makeup in place so you don’t have to worry about fading, flaking and smudging. And like other makeup products, setting sprays also offer plenty of options to choose from. If you tend to have dry skin, choose one that adds a layer of hydration or a dewy finish. For daily use, a setting spray with a dose of SPF is always a good idea.

Once you’ve primed and perfected your canvas, it’s time to add more drama and dimension. “A great bronzer makes my top five of must-have products,” Kendall tells us, adding that it’s essential to add a touch of color to a washed-out complexion. How to do so without going overboard? Kendall says to dust a little bronzer into the hair line, across the cheek bones and neck to give an instant pick-me-up.

Plenty of beauty connoisseurs would say that mascara is the most important part of makeup, and for good reason. Mascara adds thickness, length and volume to your lashes, which instantly opens and frames your eyes. The best part? It requires very little effort. Simply take your freshly dipped mascara wand and apply one to two coats before you complete your look. An absolute makeup essential for beginners, it’s the quickest way to have a put-together look on the daily.

If you’re struggling to create perfectly lined eyes, trust that you’re not alone. Applying eyeliner is arguably the most difficult (and frustrating—winged eyes, anyone?) step to master, so much so that some just give up on it completely. But hear us out. An eyeliner can instantly add sultriness and glam to your look, easily transforming it from day to night. For beginners, a pencil eyeliner is often best because it’s less fussy and gives you more control.

Start by applying the color in the middle of the eye and lightly dot the pencil into the lash, gradually working your way to the outer part of the eye. Connecting the dots is an easy way to create a more natural look.

No makeup kit is ever complete without a neutral eyeshadow palette that can take your look from day to night. Taupes, bronzes, browns and cream-colored shadows are not only great for all eye colors and skin tones, but also for creating natural, barely-there daytime looks and nighttime makeup that’s both subtle and glam.
