Why specifically ask for DMs when you can just have people comment, then others can see the same tips too?

I’d get shade matched. Then go from there based on undertones and experiment. Grab a good drug store mascara and blush, a nice bronzer, and cute lip glosses (clear ones are a staple). And you’re good! I also prefer brushes to sponges but I still use sponges to soak excess product. You can find bulk brushes on amazon so you aren’t scouting for brushes or companies that only sell them individually or in sets of only 5. I got mine on amazon for maybe 15 and it came with the container to sit them in
