Good question! Hmm…the 3 items I’d recommend would be lip balm, an eyelash curler, and a brown eye shadow. I feel like all of these are basics that give you a natural look, but once you get into more colourful looks, you can easily work these into any collection.
Happy Sunday, Kelly!

Hi Swatch and Learn,
Good choices! Happy Sunday to you also!
Great question!
I would recommend mascara for sure, and definitely a sheer lipstick/tinted lip balm – something like Clinique black honey. Then, depending on the person’s eyebrows, complexion, and style, I’d recommend either an eyeliner, a soft blush, or a brow powder.

Hi Emi at Project Swatch,
That’s true, not everyone needs a brow filler. It’s the first thing I always think of for me because I look like an alien without them filled in, haha!
Eyeliner, mascara and concealer.
