Am I too young to wear makeup?

Question

I am 11. I wear Blush, Lip stick and Mascara, Does that seem like a tramp?

Answer 1

it depends how much u wear...maybe lip gloss and mascara would b good....but stay light on that kinda stuff

Answer 2

I am a mom and although I don't have girls, I do think age 11 is a little too young for makeup. If I had a daughter, I would say wait till middle school for the blush and lip gloss, and till high school for the eye makeup. Even then, go easy on it, you want to look pretty, not cheap. Also, some schools will not allow makeup in elementary school.

Ask your mom or older sister to show you how to take care of your skin, shape your eyebrows, and do a manicure/pedicure. Maybe try some pale pink polish. Clean skin and good grooming are really important too.

I know you've probably heard this before, but you have the rest of your life to do all that kind of thing, for right now just enjoy being a girl. Let your natural beauty shine through!

Answer 3

I started wearing makeup at the age of 11 too...But the thing is that an 11 year-old girl doesn't need that much makeup..So be careful no to apply that much..Lip stick and Mascara are great! Don't wear too much Blush though..

Answer 4

I wouldn't call you a tramp, but that is a lot of makeup for an 11 year old. Maybe you should tone it down and go with gloss and mascara, and leave the blush and colored lipstick for when you are a little older.

Answer 5

I don't think you need to be wearing blush and lipstick at that age. Mascara on the top lashes only is good but don't over do it and a lighter shade like black-brown or just brown will keep it more natural. You should also try a dab of lipgloss instead of lipstick. I would buy a bunch of different make-up to fool around with at home just to get use to it and see what looks best on you. When you get a little older go to a make-up store like Sephora or MAC or a beauty department at a department store and have a professional show you how to apply your makeup correctly and what colors look best on your skin. Your still pretty young and you shouldn't need to wear too much make-up!! Enjoy your natural beauty while you still have it!!!

Answer 6

As long as you don't over do it. I would suggest lip gloss instead of lipstick. Also a clear mascara would be better than black or brown. If the blush is light, people will hardly know you're even wearing it. Just try to go light on everything, if you really need to wear it at all!

Answer 7

I was wearing makeup at eleven, but I wouldn't wear lipstick or blush. I dont think you are a tramp, but you should stick to eyeshadow, mascara, and maybe lip gloss especially in the summer. Summer makeup is supposed to be light and unnoticable. ☺

Answer 8

Well I wouldn't say that's trampy but, I think for an 11 year old, the only products necessary would be cover up &&lip gloss. I mean, this is just me but, my friends & i didnt start wearing mascara until 7th grade. And, we still don't wear blush! As long as you aren't wearing like 50 pounds of makeup, I think 11 is ok to start wearin makeup. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Answer 9

it might be a bit overly made-up for your age, but it depends on where you live. if people where you live wear a lot of make-up when they're young then maybe you fit in. however, you could make it a little lighter.

at your age you probably don't need the blush, your skin's naturally pink. but if you want to wear it, pinch your cheek and see what color it turns. that should be the color of blush you get. start it two-fingers from your nose and blend along the cheekbone to the temple.

instead of lipstick, try a clear lipgloss like covergirl lip slicks.

and for the mascara, try a clear instead of colored. makes your lashes seperate and stand-out without the darkness and drama. covergirl professional clear mascara works wonders.

and just as long as you put it on lightly, you shouldn't look too slutty.

Answer 10

woaah i think blush and lip stick might be over doing it! I mean I guess like a tint of sheer pink blush around your cheeks might be cute, but like lipstick? = weird. Most people dont even wear lipstick until their like mid-20's. You're not even a teenager yet! I think you should stick with very sheer and light colors. Even mascar might be too much. Although, they have clear color mascara that gives all the same effects as black or brown mascara, but just without the color.

This is the kind of make up I suggest for you
Clear mascara
sheer lip gloss
white teeth (brush&floss!)
maybe like light colored eyeshadow and not like a layer of cake but a hint of color

Answer 11

yea u r too young 2 wear those products. start w/just some lipgloss maybe a little powder blush for special stuff but nothin else. no one really cares how you look at 11. guys dont notice you yet. i started wearing makeup and getting noticed at 12 (but that waz onli b/c i have boobs and hips) so wait until ur 12 or 13. then start wearing mascara maybe eyeliner but dont wear lipstick until u r 14 or 15.
