Beauty routines don’t have to be complicated to work — sometimes the basics are the whole game.

TheThings Celebrity, the pop-culture and lifestyle arm of Valnet Inc.’s TheThings platform, built a roughly 12-minute rundown around the questions every beauty newcomer actually asks: what goes on first, how much sunscreen is enough, and why does foundation look orange by 3 p.m.? The video, titled “10 Basic Beauty Tips For The BEGINNER,” skips theory and gets straight into the mechanics — skin prep, shade-matching, brow shaping, contour placement, lash volume, and a handful of at-home hacks that don’t require a kit full of brushes.

  • The video runs approximately 12 minutes and was produced by TheThings Celebrity, part of the TheThings platform that Valnet Inc. launched in 2015.
  • Its ten tips cover skin preparation and daily sunscreen use, matching foundation to undertone, brow sculpting, cheek contouring, eyelash volume, and DIY hacks like mess-free manicures.
  • It’s part of a run of similar list-format videos from the channel, including “10 Beauty Tips THE PROS Don’t Want You To Know” and “10 Makeup Tricks That Will Make You More Attractive.”

Skin First, Makeup Second

The video opens where most professional artists start: bare skin. Before anything goes on with a brush, the guide walks through cleansing and prepping so foundation has a smooth base to sit on instead of clinging to dry patches or sliding off oily ones. The single non-negotiable in this section is sunscreen — applied daily, not just on days that look sunny, since UV exposure adds up whether or not there’s visible sun.

That emphasis tracks with how dermatologists and makeup artists have talked about skincare for years: primer and foundation perform better, and last longer, over skin that’s already protected and properly moisturized. The video treats sunscreen less as an optional extra step and more as the actual first step of the routine, ahead of concealer or powder.

Getting Foundation Shade Right

One of the more practical segments tackles the mistake beginners make constantly: picking a foundation shade off the bottle color instead of testing it against skin undertone. The video walks through matching foundation to undertone rather than just surface skin tone, which is the difference between a shade that blends into the jawline and one that leaves a visible line.

Match the undertone, not just the color on the label — that’s the fix for the foundation line nobody wants.

The guide pairs that with contouring cheeks using natural face shape as the guide rather than a one-size template, plus tips for sculpting eyebrows so they frame the face instead of overwhelming it. Both techniques get simplified down to beginner-level steps rather than the full editorial versions seen on red carpets or in bridal looks like the ones covered in the most expensive royal wedding looks, where makeup budgets and time aren’t a constraint.

Lashes and At-Home Fixes

The back half of the list moves into eyelash volume — how to maximize thickness without falling back on false lashes — and closes with practical DIY hacks, including a mess-free approach to at-home manicures. These are the kind of shortcuts that circulate constantly among beauty bloggers and influencers, repackaged here into a single beginner-friendly list instead of scattered across a dozen different accounts.

None of the ten tips depend on expensive tools or professional training; the throughline is technique over product. That’s consistent with the channel’s broader catalog under its celebrity and lifestyle coverage, which regularly turns pro-level beauty and grooming advice into short, accessible video guides rather than long-form tutorials.

TheThings Celebrity didn’t stop at this one list — “10 Beauty Tips THE PROS Don’t Want You To Know” and “10 Makeup Tricks That Will Make You More Attractive” followed the same format for viewers who wanted the next level up once the basics were locked in.
