Hey ladies, im a teen girl, wanted to know your thoughts on makeup. What age is appropriate to start wearing makeup? For self confidence sake, I mean. Been wondering if I should start, then again, might just wait.
I have to b honest , I LOVE to c a young lady with no make up on . Originally in western culture , make up was first used by prostitutes to display the fact that they were prostitutes , so other women never wore it !
As a young woman my mum taught me that I should use make up to either : enhance the best bit of my face or to help detract from the worst feature on my face . So , if u have nice eyes , enhance them with a bit of mascara perhaps ? If u have a nose that u don't like , use make up to enhance a different part of your face to draw attention away from your nose , that kind of thing . Also when I was young , the trend was to wear very natural looking make up , to try to make it look as if u weren't wearing any at all .
I've always found it so bizarre that young women , who r at the peak of their gorgeousness ( probably all women under 35 in my opinion ) wear so much make up when they r the women who need it least ! It's oldies like me that need a bit of make up ! Not lovely young ladies ! I have five gorgeous step daughters and it grieved me to c their lovely young faces plastered in all kinds of goo , hiding their natural beauty . I guess my attitude is old fashioned but I make no apology for that . Look after your skin , cleanse ( not with soap ) moisturize , drink lots of water , plenty of sleep , not much alcohol or caffeine and , u will look gorgeous and u won't need loads of goo on your face . Sorry if I've given u an answer that u weren't expecting 😆 I'm sure that your natural youth and beauty do not need a load of chemicals . Leave the war paint for the old ladies like me ! 😜 . And keep your face out of the sun ! 😬
