    Getting your parents to let you wear make up can be a tricky task. They just don't want you to grow up to fast. Sit down and have a mature discussion about it. Ask for makeup with boundaries. Promise to take it off every night and take proper care of your skin. Let her show you how she'd like to see your makeup. Hopefully she'll let you wear it! But always always remember makeup is for you first. Never do your makeup based on what some boy likes.

    i think its fine for you to wear makeup! i started when i was 13, too. i wore a light power foundation, a little concealer, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara, and blush. they were all neutral colors and i wore them pretty light except for i went all out on the eyeliner (which i still do lol) hope this helped!

    no you are not too young to wear make up wearing make up is just another sign that you are growing up almost every 13 year old i know wears make up. it is a GIRL thing to want to wear make up and there is no problem with a teenager wearing make up. Now a 5 year old wanting to wear make up is a different story!!!

    hope your mom lets you wear it!!!

    I started to wear make-up at 11, but that was because i had skin problems, if your pretty you don't need it. But i think mascara makes eyes bigger and better.

    first of all i think natural beauty is the best kind of beauty and most boys prefer it over makeup but sometimes i like to wear makeup to. So to answer ur question i would say no but the real secret to makeup and looking beautiful is to make it look like your not wearing any makeup at all i suggest to have ur mom aunt or sister help you on ur first time good luck and remember true beauty is within :). ps if UR parents disagree compromise with them say "what if i have mom pick out the right kind of makeup for me to wear and she can show me how to put it on with out looking like a clown?"

  • Your not too young. but i think girls look better with out. im 13, and i only wear it on special ocasions, like partys and bdays ect.

    if i was going out, i would only wear mascara and eyeliner x

    to be honest i always thought a girl looks more beautiful without makeup so you can see who she really is flaws and everything you dont need it
