The Starting Six is a little routine I developed to get you out of the door in around five minutes and cover all your makeup bases. Think of The Starting Six like your favorite little black dress - you can wear it with sandals for every day or heels and statement earrings for date night - so of course you can add to this look if you want more glam.

I’ll be showing you several versions of The Starting Six so you can see how it’s about the techniques and categories of makeup used. If you want your own Starting Six, contact me - you send me a selfie, then I send you a step-by-step guide with how to apply products and where to put them on your own face!

Find this video on my IGTV under “6/5/20 Starting Six,” and here are the products used:

Please note that I don’t include links to these items because I personally fund this website, blog and Instagram feed with proceeds of makeup lessons. Until I am able to sustainably monetize links, I’m giving makeup companies free marketing - and I value my brand more than that. So, If you’d eventually like direct links to the products you see, please share the blog posts, Electra Lane Instagram posts, and Electra Lane Instagram stories you enjoy to grow the following. Then I can partner with the brands we love and bring you even more value! Thanks so much. -Jessica
