Makeup for high school

Question

im getting ready for 10th grade and ive only been starting to wear makeup last year when i started high school and it was only black eyeliner, mascara, and concealer when i had a pimple or something but i realize that in 10th grade ur suposed to wear more makeup right? so i went to sephora and bought a shitload of makeup but i dont know what is too much or too little makeup. this is what i was thinking. i would curl my lashes and put on dark green eyeliner, black lengthening and curling mascara, concealer, and some cream colored eyeshadow at the corners of my eyes to make them pop.

does this sound too much? im supposed to be conentrating on my educating now and putting on this amount of makeup isnt a hassle for me in the morning. i know girls in my school who wear so much makeup to school that they look possessed and i also know girls who dont wear any makeup at all and look like they dont care at all. i want to be in between. thanks all help is appreciated!

Answer 1

Gosh, you make me feel old (and I went to high school in the 1990's!)

  .

When I went to high school, we had to wear a uniform & any obvious make-up was against the school regulations. The school offfice kept a supply of nail polish remover, to remove nail polish from those girls caught out wearing it.

Don't feel the need to overdo it. You're in school to learn, not try to make yourself look pretty for other people.

Wear as  much makeup that  feels appropiate for your needs, and don't worry about the other girls.

Consider yourself lucky, being your age with youthful looking skin, you should be able to get away with wearing little or no make-up at all.

Answer 2

Answer 4

in my experience, less is more.

most worthwhile guys dig the natural look.

If you get to the point where you are wearing so much make up that you look like an alien when you don't wear any, its not good and people will talk.  

I'm going into my junior year and I only wear foundation and mascara to school. Occasionally, i'll wear some eyeshadow.

On special occasions like dates, dances, or picture day I'll wear eyeliner as well but don't put it on too thick or you'll look like a raccoon

Answer 5

What you want is a little much.

like you don't want people getting the wrong image. don't get me wrong makeup is fun to play with but only to a certain point!

the natural look is always good just go with some

idk if this is what you call natural but all i wear is

SOME bronzer mascara and a lil bit of light hardly any eye shadow.

idk you are free to pick what u want but i wouldn't go without eye liner.

hope i helped!

Answer 8

well i think that your makeup routine sounds cute and it not to much but i just wanted to say that at my school the higher the grade the less you care. its quite funny actually all the freshmen have loads of makeup on and they wear tight little clothes and they just look so uncomfotable the sophmores still wear makeup but they just wear like tshirts and jeans everyday then the juniors and seniors wear like zero make up and anything comfortable i dunno if its just my school but i think the more school you do the more you want to just get done and stop caring about what you look like haha i dunno if its just my school or what but yeah haha :) but i like your routine :)

Answer 9

small fit in purse multi makeup kit.  with all your make up needs

Answer 10

I would get the Bare Escentuals get started kit. I know it seems boring, but it has all the items you need. They have tons of different eyeshadows instead of...well, blah. It has blush, instructional dvd, brushes, foundation, etc.
