am I too little to wear make up?

Question

I am 12 years old and turning 13 in a couple of months my mom says I can only wear mascara and lipgloss is that too little at this age and I practically had to beg her to say yes but now that I think of it, is mascara TOO LITTLE? or am I just fine what about blush? please help!

Answer 1

since you are only going to be 13, you should only wear mascara and lip gloss because if you start wearing makeup at such a young age your face will get darker, start getting blemishes and dark spots and that wouldnt look nice. Makeup should only be used to enhance, so if are already pretty there is no need to go all out!

Answer 2

you should wear lipgloss, mascara, and a little eyeliner if you know how to apply it properly. That's what i wear everyday and i wear foundation, concealer, and pressed powder if my face needs it . However, on special occasions i wear more and play up my eyes a bit .I don't think you should wear blush. That's fine. You're still young and you can wear more makeup when you go to highschool. I know , I'm almost 15 . Hope this helps and good luck with everything.

Answer 3

The blush is too much unless you are like doing a dance recital or something. I'm wearing mascara sometimes and I'm only 11 so you're ok. Of course lip gloss is ok, I used it when I was 6. Good luck!

Answer 4

Your skin at this age is beautiful!! The sooner you put on make-up the sooner your pores clog up, skin dries out and fine lines start showing. I am so lucky I did not start putting on make up in my early years.

My grandmother taught me how to take care of my skin with an egg-white mask and Oil of Olay. To this day I am grateful for not packing on the make up early. I am in my 30's and people think I am much younger.

I don't wear a lot of make up even now. Sometime just eye shadow, mascara & lip gloss. Only when I go out in the evenings do I put more on. I tell you, It gets grooling to have to put on make-up all the time. Stay as young looking as you can for now. Why grow up? Once your here you just want to look 13 again.

Take care. LAT

PS: Get some Oil of Olay, kay? ; )

Answer 5

you dont need blush, trust me.

mascara and lip gloss are good for your age.

im 14 and wear mascara lipgloss eyeliner and foundation, i still dont wear blush. and i only use powder foundation to cover my acne. maybe you can get away with wearing a little eyeliner, im not sure. if you have acne you should probably ask your mom about wearing some oil-free foundation, but dont put too much on, it will look cakey.

Answer 6

I wasn't allowed to wear makeup until I was 16, except for dance performances and special occasions, and my skin was much better off for it! You don't need make up to look beautiful. If you save makeup for special occasions, it will make you look all the more special on those days. If you wear it all the time, you can end up with bad skin and also you'll always feel like you HAVE to wear it, because you will feel you don't look as good without it.

My kids won't be able to wear makeup until 16 either. I think my parents did the right thing, and your mother is right to limit your make up use. She's only thinking about what's best for you.

Answer 7

the lip gloss is a good idea if you want then you could wear mascara but the blush might be a little too much make-up cause all i ever wear is lip gloss.

Answer 8

blush a little to much but mascara is fine if u know how to use it the right way

Answer 9

You are not to young to weasr makeup. Thge reason your mom dosnt want you wearingit is she doesnt want her little girl growing up. I suggest using foundation a pale pink eyeshadow and lips gloss is just perfect. If you are going to wear mascara i suggest using an eyelash curler first that way it brings out your eyes.
