I have friends who are 11 and wear make up. I started wearing coverup this year (im 12) and occasionally when my mom isnt around to wittness it, eyeliner. Not a lot though, too much is gross.
My mom won't let me wear makeup till i'm 13. (im 12, too.)
My mom says im not allowed to wear make up until im 16.My mom tells me not to do alot of stuff. Buti still do it.
i don't want to wear makeup casually for a while....for fancy stuff yeah maybe but not anything else
i'm not gonna wear make-up, evah.haha.....
well 10 year old all are like OMG! LIPGLOSS! and i see no problem w/ that. i think full face stuff should start at the begining of highschool or on 13th b-day
I dont like lip gloss. I like eyeliner and mascara occasionaly.
I shalt be in love with my own sins.
I shalt not let anyone take me alive.
I shalt find a way when all hope is gone.
I shalt not care what you think as long as it's about me.
I shalt not be afraid to keep on living.

Lol. I'm not a big make up person yet, but there are some freaky freshman girls who wear mascara, eyeliner AND eyeshadow on a regular basis. And they wear it heavily.I think when I start wearing it I'd mostly go for mascara and lip gloss because I have pretty long eye-lashes and I get chapped lips LOL.
IDK...
I've been in love with lipgloss since I waS 8.

I think most kids like lip gloss first because it's the easiest one and the lightest one.
yes. And he only one ht 'm allowed to wear until August 10, 2009-my 13th B-day
same with my friend but that equals easy present :) plus elf has it 4 cheap
here's what i think:
i think heavy make up is really kind of silly. for fancy occasions, masscara, eyeshadow, lip gloss/stick, and/or maybe blush and foundation is ok. for teenagers, as in, 13-16? i have friends who coat themselves in makeup (aged 13) everyday, which is silly. i think. i mean, they look lovely and all....... i think it is also ok to wear concealer/foundation in high school if you need it. but anyone under 13, maybe a bit of masscara or eyeshadow and lipgloss is all i think is ok.

I don't think that there's a certain age to start wearing make-up. It all depends on the person and the parents. Personally, I started wearing make-up when I was about twelve, and have gotten to the point where I can't go anywhere without putting some on. And honestly, I kind of wish I never started, because I wouldn't depend on it so much now.Really though, I don't think kids need to start wearing make-up at all. I was just in a rush to grow up/feel grown up. There's no need for it.
i can see what you mean. every family is different.

Exactly. But little girls always want to feel grown up. So they should wear lip gloss. Because it doesn't exactly count as make up.

I wear concealer and foundation on special occasions, but usually i only wear mascara an lipgloss at most.
I think there isn't a 'set age' for when people should start wearing make up or not. The choice is entirely up to them and their parents- it's not for anyone else to decide or judge. Sure, maybe if I see a nine year old wearing EXTREMELY heavy make up- clots of foundation and blush and eyeshadow and eyeliner and mascera- I might feel sick, but it's still not my place to say what's the right age and what's the wrong age. If nine year old's want to grow up too fast, then so be it. It's their problem, not mine.I'm 14, almost 15, and the only make up I wear is eyeliner, occasionally mascera, and lip gloss (because I have a lip licking problem, and lip gloss is the only thing that makes me not lick my lips). I don't bother with blush or foundation or eyeshadow or any of that. The reason I wear mascera and eyeliner isn't because I want to fit in, or want to feel "grown up", or anything like that- it's just because it's a fun thing to do, and it makes me feel confident. And it's not like I'm addicted or attached to it or need it or anything; I go all the time without make up, when I don't feel like putting it on or just don't want to.
And to anyone who judges me for the make up I wear: go mind your own business.
that is a good point most kids only want to wear make up to fit in some people use it to make them selves look better, it's all phycological.I mean if you think you look good you will be more confident
see i bought bad covergirl makeup (it was sparkley :O, which i didnt know at purchase time) and gosh i could not apply it to save my life. so id take it off try again and it was still bad.. i also had nyc eyliner and light purple eyeshadow (mabyline) and id try again it was stil bad so id end up going to school my face al red from taking it off and stuff so i just quit.
Lol. Yeah, me too. I wear lip gloss for special occasions. That just tells you how messed up my makeup life is.But I've never really felt the need to wear makeup, so I don't. I'm one of those girls who would go to the store with bedhead in her pajamas if my ma didn't make me do something presentable with myself. :D
Lol. It depends on what day it is and who im hanging out with really.
If its a monday and Ava P called to hang out and FORCED me to go, i wouldn't shower and wear my boyish outfits and sulk the whole time.
If its a friday and Nina, Maya, Eliza, Emma, or Sophie called i would actually try to make myself look presentable because i actually like those friends.
Being presentable usually includes a bit of foundation mascara and lip gloss.
If its a saturday and theres a party add eyeliner to the mix.
If its a sunday and june calls to hang out i'll try and make myself presentable because gabe is really HOT. And gabes always there.
I don't think any age should be illegal, but I dunno, I don't think that like 5 year olds should wear it.
not legal or anything.i think its cute when 5 year olds put on a bunch of make up 4 dress up or something
in 5th grade my mom said i could wear whatever makeup i want (i am now in 9th)
but i didn't go overboard or anything
i didn't want to look like a whore (and still don't)
or else they buy it at the store and put it on in the bathroom before school and it looks HORRIBLE
Hmmmm...I didn't start wearing heavy make-up until last year, but wore a bit before then too. My parents never had a problem with it, unless it is REALLY dark. Even then I just go out anyway, haha, I have found black eyeshadow! I like dark make-up:)
I only use mascara eyeshadow and lip gloss ((even though my parents only approve of lip gloss))
Yep, brown eyes are weird, haha, I use, blue, black, neautral skin-toneish, red and brown eye-shadow. Haha, I don't use eyeliner that much, it's a hassle, unless I'm using blue eyeliner! It's easier, and doesn't look sloppy.
The blue eyeliner is really light! The red eyeshadow is an odd shade, but it works. For some reason brown eye shadow makes my eyes look nice! :)
I use emerald/deep green eyeliner (it makes the green flecks in my brown eyes pop), brown eyeshadow, and black mascara... Other than that, I use almost any shade color. I love black, gray, and blue eyeliner.Eyeliner is by far my favorite make-up product, other than foundation xD
I'm so bad at using pencil liner, I just look whore-ish, I like liquid, I only have brown and black in that. The Wal-mart here has shitty, shitty selection, so the extent of what I have is limited.
I have very fair skin, so most any color can go with it (except peach and crap... and red doesn't suit me very well) but I tend to go more towards the darker colors. Black is my favorite, but green makes my eyes pop, which I like ^^
My classmate Eric's mom (in elementary school) had BLUE mascara!!!!!!!
I never use foundation, haha, I can get by on eye shadow, and mascara! My favorites!
I wish I didn't have to use foundation. But, sadly, I have acne x.x It sucks. So I use minimal foundation (just to cover the small areas with the acne) and then some powder, if needed, and then the eye make-up. Eyes are my favorite to do ^^
Are you guys really having this conversation right now?
i have lime greenish type eyes with gold flecks so i wear lemongrass eyeshadow and olive eyeliner it is awesome! or purple with black.
