How Much Makeup Should A Thirteen Year Old Wear?

I used to think that if you wore in seventh grade it was trampy, but then i got braces. I feel insecure with them and have had them for two weeks. The day i got them, i asked my mom to get me . I wanted to still look pretty even with the ugly metal braces on my teeth. now i tinted moisturizer, concealer, mascara, and sometimes eyeshadow and lip glosss almost every day.
Could u give some other makeup ideas/techniques and or colors that are appropriate for someone my age?

    Everything that you said you used is what I’d recommend. Try to wear as little make-up on your actual skin as possible so that it stays clear and young. Maybe try a little bit of eyeliner on the top of your lashes instead of eye shadow because that looks less ‘trampy’ as you say, as its barely recogniseable.
    And don’t worry about your braces. Some people look good in them without realising.
    Good luck x

    At the age 13! Reckon u sldn’t wear makeup, girl. It’s not appropraite for a girl so young to apply all those cosmetics on her delicate face. U know what, my cousin used to have braces, but she looks super pretty after she took them off. Just gotta wait for 2 years:)

    YOU ARE 13 !
    You shouldn’t be wearing any make-up at all. But, I do understand where you are coming from. I would just wear foundation, mascara, maybe some eyeliner, and a little lipgloss. Don’t wear too much eyeshadow. You’re 13, you don’t want to look like a hoe, so go with just natural colors.

    Only use concealer on zits. Don’t use it all over your face
    also, eye shaddow is prettier when worn in natural colors-not hot pink and teal
    lipgloss….make sure it’s not tinted-get it in the coloR of your lips

    What you are wearing now sounds fine, as long as you don’t go overboard on the eye shadow and lip gloss. It is perfectly fine for girls your age to wear a little makeup. Talk to your mom or go to a department store where they have a makeup counter for tips or how to apply a product correctly if you are unsure.

    not to much(u’;; be called a cake face) just maybe mascara lip gloss some eye shadow not to dark(natural color
    maybe if you want to stay minimum just lip gloss try to be confedint wit you self take advantage of braces change the coulors you probably do like ti know cause your not used to it

    Yeah, I don’t think the eye shadow is necessary. As long as your look looks natural and not trampy wear as much as you want.

    Do it very light.
    Maybe all most like a skin color so it only stands out a little. I have braces and I don’t think that they are ugly. Don’t worry when you grow up you will have beautiful teeth! Maybe clear lip gloss will look pretty. Also a light,light blue would look good for eye shadow. But, at your age you defiantly don’t want to wear too much make up.
    Just experiment and you will find the colors that are good for you. But, its totally up to you!
    I hope I helped!

    me personly
    eyeliner(any colour)
    eyeshadow but not skin close colours because then you look like some kreepy smal l40 yr old failing at make up … never match your eye colour and eyeshadow it takes away from your eyes opposed to the goal of making people notice them :P
    lip stick no
    lip gloss don’t over do it

    I’m 13 and I only wear eyeliner and mascara, sometimes concealer, and chapstick. I don’t think that what you have is bad at all, but I, personally, don’t think the eyeshadow’s necessary

  • Well I’m 13 (Almost 14!), and this is what I wore today.
    Neutral, slightly shimmery eyeshadow
    Black mascara
    Chapstick
    Lip Gloss
    Tinted Moisturizer
    Mineral Powder
    Concealer
    Blush
    This is one of my more natural looks, I’ll usually wear a bit more than this.

    as much as you want, as long as you realize makeup causes pimples.
    (in this life, you can never win. guess we’d better get used to that fact.)

    None, too young. Wait until high school. Girls your age should not wear makeup. In seventh grade, makeup is not a good thing.

    You shouldn’t wear make up. I makes you looks even uglier cause some products mess up your skin.
    I go to a school wear girls start wearing heavy make up in the 6th grade.
    You shouldn’t wear make up to hide your braces/
    I have braces and I don’t wear makeup, only mascara and thats occasionally.

    I got braces when i was 13 too and i felt the same way you did.
    but dont worry.all you have to do is maybe wear some eyeliner(brown) or black
    and then glittery pretty eyeshadow and lip balm then put lip gloss on the top and then
    some concealer and thats all.dont be unconfident.
    hope i helped(:

    Just neutral tones to match your skin tone. Like shear lip gloss a (little) bit of mascara and maybe blush
