Is this too much make-up?

Question

I'm 14. On most days, this is the make - up I wear;

-Mascara
-Eyeliner
-Under eye concealer
-Lip gloss

Sometimes I wear a little more, like some powder or concealer on blemishes, and sometimes I wear less, like just some mascara or just some lip gloss. But in general, and I wearing too much?

Just to let you know, I wear mascara and eyeliner in brown, not black. Black looks terrible on my eyes for some unknown reason.

Answer 1

It sounds about right. I always wear lipstick, powder, blusher and mascara. Sometimes I add eyeliner, eye shadow, and concealer when it's needed.

My only though on what is too much for you is the eyeliner. It's a bit much for a girl your age, but as long as you don't put it on too heavy, I'd say it's fine.

Just be sure to clean the makeup off before bed every night, moisturize, and give your face makeup free days from time to time so it can breathe.

Answer 2

I don't think so, I think mabey instead of the eyeliner you should wear a little bit of eyeshadow. When I was that age I would wear more than that, it's all about moderation. Keep the concealer and powder on days when you do have blemishes, and mascara and lip gloss is always a must have. But just remember to wash your face very good every night so the make-up dosen't irritate and clog your skin!

Answer 3

I don't think it's too much. I started wearing mascara, foundation, and concealer when I was 13 and a half - it was just my time, I guess. Although that was because I have a lot to cover up, and my eyelashes are blonde. It's not even like I want to be "sexy" for boys or anything like that - I always was insecure and self-concious before I started wearing makeup. It makes me feel like I actually look good. It boosted my self-confidence a lot and I'm glad I started wearing it. But really, I have found that eyeliner is not that necessary - or at least not a lot of it. When girls in junior high wear tons of eyeliner on both lids that's like a full 1/8 inch thick, it looks really bad. I definitely don't think you're wearing too much, although if you were to knock off anything, I'd suggest it be the eyeliner.

Answer 4

I wear more than that, but I am 25. Being 14, you should skip the eyeliner & I doubt you need the under eye concealer. Stick w/ just lipgloss and a little mascara.

Answer 5

Iam 14 and all I wear is mascara, lip gloss and some powder that gets rid of shine (wouldnt call it a makeup cuz it doesnt cover anything at all!). But its not that much you shouldnt need the eye concealer since your only 14. Be comfortable with your own skin

Answer 6

Yes I think so. I'm 20 and don't do all that. At 14 it should be lip gloss and mascara. Anyhting else is doin' 2 much and giving you all the wrong attention. Older guys probably try to hit on you but baby girl you're still 14. Matter of fact stick with just lip gloss for at least 2 more years.

Answer 7

Well you're very sensible to not wear foundation and stick to concealer, its better. choose a treated concealer, then it wont clog pores. i would def. say lay off the liner, as it is more of a night out thing. it depends where you wear it, but in winter lining the inner rims is nice, but stray from liner in summer. white kohl on the inner rims is a gr8 alternative to black as it is more natural. on the whole, you're doing good, keep the mascara light handed and make it a pale gloss or a lip balm instead. thumbs up!

Answer 8

I;m 25 and I don't need under eye concealer, so I can't figure out why you at 14 need to wear it. Just stick to lip gloss and mascara. I'm sure you're a pretty girl! Don't cover that beauty up with all that makeup.

Answer 9

I dont really think its too much, but maybe for your age you should wear less..maybe just a little mascara and lip gloss..I mean its your choice, i just think that girls start wearing make up to young i didnt start wearing make up till i was 18.

Answer 10

No I don't think so, as long as it's in moderation. I mean, by mascara, that could mean a few strokes, or making your eyelashes look like spider legs, like there are some girls at my school who only wear eyeliner and concealer but their eyes look like squashed flies and their face looks orange.

a good rule of thumb is to never look like you're wearing a mask, and to make sure your makeup is enhancing your features, not hiding them.
