 Your foundation should be leaning towards pink, and you look good in ivory and should not wear too much black.
 Start with more neutral tones, nothing to bright or crazy, because these are harder to get off if you make a mistake. Avoid waterproof things until you are more confident in your makeup applying as these are also very difficult items to get off.

 It's important that you get an exact match for your skin tone. Apply concealer first, then foundation, then powder. To apply foundation, dab it on your face, a couple dots all over, then with large sweeping motions blend it in. To apply concealer, put a small dot and gently rub it in with your ring finger or a makeup sponge. To apply powder, drag your brush through the powder, then tap the edge on the edge of the powder, getting rid of any extra. Then using sweeping motions, lightly cover your face. Be sure to always blend into your neck for a natural look

Try to figure out what kind of skin tone you have.
If you have a warm skin tone, you look better in jewel tones, reds, blues, purples etc.
If you have a cool skin tone, you look better in earthy tones, browns, greens, golds etc.
Once you've figured out your skin tone, try to find makeup in these tones.
Start with something basic, and natural, for example, some mascara, a little eyeliner, and lip gloss.
Once you feel confident pulling off an easy look, try to get more advanced, and buy concealer, setting powder and foundation.
Look up video tutorials of more difficult looks, or figure them out yourself, so that eventually you'll be able to do your own glam looks for parties.
