Question

How much makeup should a 12 year old wear???

Answer 1

I don't think a twelve year old should be wearing makeup.

However ... if you do ... keep it simple ... clear lip gloss, mascara pale shades of eye shadow. I don't think you should wear eyeliner or foundation. Your skin is still young and has to go through puberty and the foundation may cause more spots.

Only my opinion.

Answer 2

Theres nothing wrong with experimenting with a bit of eyeshadow or lipgloss but certainly not foundation or anything like that because you dont need it when your twelve =]

Answer 3

well im 12 and i usually wear some mascara some eyeliner (not 2much) some eyeshadow (sometimes sparkly blue or purple) some lipgloss and rite now i dont get zits or stuff and i would like it to stay dat way so no blush. and i sprinse a little perfume here and there. :) hope dat helps!!!

Answer 4

This is the age when girls are ready to try make up and always put WAY Too much on! I would say a little eye shadow( lighter colors) and a little mascara.

Answer 5

oh i really don't know cause i want to kno the same thing cause im 12 now and im thinking about wearing mascara and maybe consealor but im not sure  

Answer 6

12 year olds are too young to wear makeup. If you really want to, wear the smallest bit (a little eyeliner, eye shadow).

Answer 7

I don't think a twelve year old should be wearing any makeup.

Answer 8

i personally don't think any, but if they really want to a clear mascara and maybe a clear gloss.. but nothing with color.. not yet..

maybelline makes a good clear mascara, i used it when i was 12, but i didnt start wearing makeup till i was 13/14. trust me you don't wanna grow up to fast.

Answer 9

Ask your mum! I would say lip-gloss. =]

Answer 10

I started wearing make up at that age because of bullies at school and I had a bad self esteem.

I don't recommend started to wear it though because it can become a habit starting so young.  You may find yourself not able to leave the house without putting it on and it's not good for your skin etc.

If you insist on wearing it, maybe just a bit of foundation and lipgloss and maybe a bit of mascara.  

Answer 11

Not much, but feel free to wear a little! Try...

*Concealer where you need it ( I like to use Revlon Colorstay Blemish Concealer)

*A little gold eyeshadow (try L'Oreal Wear Infinite Eye Shadow Singles in Buttercup)

*Mascara (I like L'Oreal Voluminous, Revlon 3D Extreme, or Maybelline Full N' Soft)

I hope I helped, and please....DON'T WEAR EYELINER!!!

Answer 12

Unless you are trying to cover disfigurement's, none.

Except maybe a little lip gloss.

Answer 13

at 12 years old you should not be wearing makeup.

Answer 14

None!  Be a kid, have fun, don't be in such a hurry to grow up that'll happen in time.

Answer 15

What is normal for your area and what do your parent(s)/guardian(s) think?

Don't try to look grown up yet, I'd say.  

Answer 16

that ones easy. NONE!

Answer 17

im twelve and i wear foundation, eye liner, mascara, and eye shadow

Answer 18

just a little bit

Answer 19

None, you should be learning how to take care of your skin, not aging it.  Wash at night and in the morning, then before you go outside put on a moisturizer with SPF.  If you want something try a lip balm that has some color to it.  But other then that keeping your skin beautiful is the best thing.

Answer 20

i think the tipical lip gloss a little bit of eyeshadow and maybe a little bronzer is good but get someone to help you the  fisrt time that way it doesnt look overewelming and just remember the secret to makeup is to make it look like you dont have any on but it still looks prettty

Answer 21

None! believe me its a waist of time. A 12 year-old should still be playing with barbies.

Answer 22

ya probably none, but if you have a bad complexion i don't see anything wrong with a little concealer, a light powder than can be applied by brush.

I still think you are too young to be worried about it though.

Answer 23

not muchhh...

think about it

your only a kid from the age of 0 -16 years....

then ur pretty much an adult from 17 - like 85.(the average death age for femals)

you do the math.. id treasure the short time u have as a kid!!

not much makeup, you shouldnt hav anything to hide..the skin of a 12 yr old is great !

Answer 24

not a lot. almost none. i say wear light mascara and lip gloss and sometimes if you need it cover up.but dont always wear cover up bc ur skin needs to breath!! its not healty to wear it everyday. but ur young dont wear too much. :)

Answer 25

i think tweleve year olds should be alowwed to put on  lip gloss only. nothing else!!

Answer 26

hmm... some makeup not much... to young to start looking older

Answer 27

none

Answer 28

None. You're at an age where your skin is pure and very pretty. Don't go piling on heaps of foundation it looks A LOT worse. Your natural blush is so pure at your age there is no point in wearing make up.

Unless you've hit puberty early and you're face is full of pimples just clean it every day and night instead of wearing make up.

Answer 29

None - why start wearing makeup when they are so young. It is easy to overdue it and look like Bozo.

Answer 30

None but if your really want to light eyeshadow and light pink blush.. and a clear lip gloss..
