Answer 4

A long time ago makeup used to contain ingredients like lead and other scary things that we would never put on our face today that would damage the skin. Now with all of the natural, hypo-allergenic and mineral makeups I don't think you have to worry very much about it. And anyway now we have all of these face scrubs and laser procedures that will be even less evasive than now if you were worried about it at that age.
