Well if you are at the beginning, buy some cheep sets and practice a lot, it takes a lot of trial and error to get it right, why do that with the Lancome stuff?

but, foundation, powder, lipstick, mascara, eyeliner, and eyeshadow are the basic kit.  Rouge is nice too.

When I started, I went to a Dollar Store and bought lots of cheap makeup for a buck apiece.  It was great for practice, though it isn't what you will eventually want to use. 

I would also suggest that you study what you are doing.  Here is a book that is wonderful and not too expensive.  It has given me some great insight:

I don't know, unless your complexion is shot, I'd stay away from foundation, its very hard to use properly at first at its way to easy to look like a clown or worse. And not many women wear heavy foundation, many use it in spots and also use conceilers.

Easiest to use, mascara, don't go heavy for day use.
Second easiest to use, eyeliner, don't go to dark, darker above
than below (below can be omited for day use).
Third easiest to use is lipstick, but for day use to go to bold,
with dark skin, the darker the lipstick you can use.

Eyeliner and mascara is the essential for me.

At 15 your complexion should be almost perfect, especially if you don't have acnee problems, so I'd lay off the blush and foundations.

At that age, concentrate on the eyes and go light.

Check what girls your age are wearing, if you go beyond that you won't look good.
