Should I wear makeup?

Question

I am 13 years old and I have been wearing makeup since I was about 11, people say that I shouldn't and that I am too young, what do you think about it?

Answer 1

I think you should use your natural beauty when you are younger, but you can use makeup to enhance the beauty, but DO NOT over apply. Just little amounts! You don't even have to wear it every day.

Answer 2

11 IS too young to start wearing makeup.

13 is ok to start, just as long as you wear only a tiny bit and make it very simple.

Mascara is an excellent cosmetic to use at your age. Most mothers who don't like their young 13-year old daughters to wear makeup usually don't have a problem if they just wear a little mascara. Maybeline Great Lash is an excellent mascara for someone your age to wear. VERY IMPORTANT: Do NOT use the waterproof kind; it WILL destroy your lashes! The regular Great Lash mascara goes on beautifully. And no mascara conditions like Great Lash. I think it's been around since the 60's, maybe even before. While other mascaras have come and gone, Great Lash has stayed. And it doesn't clump or go on dramatically. You're too young to wear any of the dramatic-looking mascaras. At your age, you want to wear JUST enough to ENHANCE your lashes, to darken them a little and make them a little more noticeable.

Other than that, you really shouldn't wear anything else until you're older. Clear or slightly tinted lip gloss (not TOO shiny) is ok. Wait a couple of years before wearing anything like lipstick or more eye makeup, like shadow. And when you DO start to wear that other stuff, remember to keep it simple.

Less IS More.

Answer 3

I don't think it matters one way or the other. But yeah, a makeup on 11-13 year old is a bit premature in my opinion. My mom allowed me to use makeup since I was 7 but I started using it when I was 16.

Answer 4

u shouldnt u r too young if u mentally think u r too young
also u will have disgusting skin by the time you are 28 u will need botox
and 13 yr olds dnt look good when they were makeup every day
also ask any normal guy and they would prefer girls who dont wear make up
so stop.............sweetie

Answer 5

no ur not too young . if your mom allowed ur to wear the makeup at 11 then it should not mater what other ppl think . i started to wear makeup at 17 jus beacuse it was so cold where we lived my face would freeze my makeup wear it would be sticky .

Answer 6

It's up to you. If you feel better when you wear make-up then yes you should. But if you are just wearing it to fit in don't because you are kidding yourself and not letting your personality shine through! If people tell you you are to young it could be because of many reasons, they care for you, or they are jealous because you look gorgeous and they don't. Good luck!

Answer 7

yep, WAY too young. instead of wearing makeup which damages skin, try keeping your eyebrows neat and curling your eyelashes. this is way easier and people won't think youre trying too hard.

Answer 8

people used to say that to me too when i was like 12/13ish. & i didn't realize it back then but I really shouldn't have been wearing it. i didn't know what i was doing at all. how do you wear your makeup? e-mail me at [e-mail]

Answer 9

You poor girl. They haven't been nice to you. She's right, it doesn't matter what others think, but, unless you have bad acne, I wouldn't advise wearing foundation. Makes you look scary.

Answer 10

I would just stick with bare minimum, like gloss, lipstick, blush, nail polish, and eyeshadow. I would not yet recommend face powder, foundation, eyeliner, nor mascara.
