Make-up???

Question

I am 13 and just started wearing make-up? is black eyeliner and mascara and lipgloss too much???

Answer 1

I am young too and I have made several makeup mistakes in my time. The key is to balance your features. (Think of it as a more fun version of algebra). Make sure you keep the eye shadow colors neutral or pastels. Try different shades of brown grey beige and taupe. Pastels (pinks, peaches, and lavendars) are great daytime colors.) You can wear black mascara and eyeliner as long as the liner isn't applied to thickly and no more than three coats of mascara are used. Remember that you can still wear red lips and look fresh. Apply blush and/or bronzer lightly to avoid a clownlike appearance. NO BLACK eye shadow. Use concealer and/or tinted moisturizer as a better-for-your-skin alternative to heavy foundations. Be careful with eye lash curlers. Always care for your skin daily. (Mario Badescu and Neutrogena are wonderful and relatively inexpensive.) and remember to remove all makeup (including eyes before going to bed. Lastly some shades you my want to try:

Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Midnight Cowboy
(Sparkly beige brown taupe with silver glitter)
Neutrogena Moistureshine Lip Gloss in Fizz and Groove
(Pink and peach crosses
Neutrogena Lipstick Petal
(pinky red)
Cover Girl Wetslicks
(Tutu) Pale pink
Maybelline Roller color In line ice
(sparkly white)

Answer 2

One of the biggest mistakes women make is putting too much eye liner on. I suggest the mascara and lip gloss. When it comes to eyeliner you should find a color that enhance your eyes. If you have blue eyes wear blue eyeliner but put it on lightly. If you have green eyes you can wear green or brown eye liner. If you have brown eyes use brown eye liner. Never put it on heavy. Black eyeliner is hard because it has to be applied very lightly so that you don't look trashy. You want your makeup to not really show up that much but you want it to enhance your pretty face and eyes. I would stay away from blush and eye shadow. Stay away from foundation. If you want something for your face find a light ivory face powder.

Do you think it's too much?? if you want to use eyeliner why don't you try a brown one instead and clear mascara, the lip gloss is OK, try it and see if you like it, the important thing about make up is that you feel good with it, if you feel it is too much then it might be. Good luck!

Answer 4

I think so--why don't you try using mascara and lipgloss--not eyeliner and mascara bc that is a little too much for your eyes at this time-i don't think that at your age you would need to use both you have your natural beauty and young skin yet!

Answer 5

Black eyeliner easily goes wrong. Wear masscarra instead. Eyeliner often leaves marks around the eyes. They look like dark circles when you remove the eyeliner. Also, if applied incorrectly, black eyeliner makes the eyes look small and the person look overdone. Even if you apply it correctly, it makes a person look too different when they take it off. Make-up should stress what you have, not aspire to make you look like someone you aren't. People who see you without make-up shouldn't go "Who's that?"

Answer 6

you probably still have great skin so don't wear foundation by any means. i think mascara and lipgloss is perfect. eyeliner is good too maybe not everyday, though. and stay away from eyeshadow it will make you look like you're playing dress up

Answer 7

I don't think that's too much for 13. Just remember, black eyeliner can be harsh if it's not applied sparingly just at the base of the lashes. You might try mixing brown and black together or using charcoal grey or brown for a more natural look.

Answer 8

ABSOLUTELY NOT!! But if it looks like too much to you, skip the liner and just go with the mascara and lip gloss. Try to make it clear or a light lip gloss. Wearing make-up is fun, but once you start wearing it, you can never stop so think twice about staritn so young lol!!

For your first inexpensive mascara, try Maybelline(the pink and black one, not the pink and green). And for lip gloss, try Revlon or Bonnie Bell.

Good luck and stay young =)

Answer 9

Im about the same age and Mascara, Lip GLoss, and a light Eyeshadow are absolutely fine! But eyeliner makes you look like your trying to be older then you really are. Plus guys don't like girls who over-do their make-up.

Answer 10

OY! See what I told Soul patrol... NO black liner... it makes you pretty young girls look hootchy like at best and totally trashy on a bad day. If you want to wear eye liner... go for a soft colour depending on the colour of your eyes. Mascara and lip-gloss is good. Perfect even.. Just lose the black eye liner... really.
