Question

im 17 and i don't wear any...but i don't think i need it...

Answer 1

whenever u feel like you need it & you can wear it without worring how it looks...

Answer 2

I started wearing make-up right after my 10th birthday..in 5th grade. I know I started early but I considered myself as an ugly ducking, lol. If you feel good about yourself then you don't need make-up. Who cares what others think? I wouldn't recomment wearing make-up until your have to. I started way too early. I'm in 8th grade now and I just look retarded without it. Everyone including me is used to seeing me with it on. If your a beautiful young woman with flawless skin then DO NOT WEAR IT! It messes with your skin! You break out more often and it's a never ending task to get it off!

Answer 3

14

Answer 4

Whenever your parents let you, if you're under 18. But if you don't feel like you need it, for heavens sake don't wear it! Why clog your pores and irritate your skin/eyes if you don't need to? Plus, it adds time to getting ready in the morning and getting ready to go out anywhere. Might as well take the extra time to sleep, if you're pretty enough without it!

Answer 5

My mother would never let me wear makeup until I was about your age, and by the time I was allowed to - I didn't want to anymore. I would say if you don't want to - you never have to. I still barely ever wear makeup and the nice thing is I have soft unwrinkled skin at 30 yrs. old. I usually just wear eye makeup and/or lip gloss/lipstick. I never wear foundation EVER>

Answer 6

I started wearing lip gloss when i was 11, but really started wearing it when i was 13. when i was 12 I'd play around with it, like goofy eyeshadow and blush, bu ti ts nice to keep it simple when you're older. it's really an insecurity thing, if you feel insecure about your self image then in order to help yourself you might want to start, but don't feel pressured, you sound very strong in yourself. I wear it because i am allergic to allot of foods and air born stuff and it comes out under my eyes and its red. It makes me feel insecure about when people ask me so i cover it up. i usually wear cover up on my eyes and maybe blush or eyeshadow.

Answer 7

I started wearing it at 13 but I would make it look natural, not clown-like lol. I still that now at 25. If you don't feel like you need it right now, just wait until you want to use it (if you want do want to start sometime). Do what feels right for you:)

Answer 8

Then you probaly DON'T. A lil' lady should wait until they really need too. Like to cover flaws(huge zits,purple circles under the eyes. Make-up in NO WAY helps skin,skin can't breathe with make-up on,therefore clogging pores,leading to breakouts and damaged,enlarged pores.

Answer 9

whenever you are comfotable wearing it..i started wearing make-up around 17 but if you dont want to use it dont feel pressured to but its fun to experiment with different eye make-up and stuff just to get a new look

Answer 10

dont worry I'm almost fifteen and dont plan on wearing make-up if it isn't necessary. if you just all of a sudden start putting make - up on it will look like your trying hard to be something your not. you r beautiful just as you are, dont ever forget that natural beauty is the best beauty of all

Answer 11

there is no set age. I'm 16 and I wear make-up. I started out with just eye shadow and then mascara. it's just what you feel comfortable with, but I would try at least mascara and I little shadow.
