Would you allow your teenager to wear makeup to school? I don’t want her to appear older than her age but she really wants to wear it. Idk what to do…
As long as it’s not over done like she’s going to a club, why not ?
Of course!!! Don’t over do it…but why wouldn’t you??
Absolutely. Let them be their own person.

Nope. Never.
Make up is unnecessary and physically and mentally destructive. Instead of teaching girls to paint themselves beautiful just teach they are beautiful with their body as is.

Yes. The point of make up is to blend with the natural… as long as she feels confidence it will be fine
100%. Allow her to be her own person. And find out for herself her likes and dislikes.
My 9 year old wore light pink eye shadow n lip gloss for vday I don’t see a issue as long as she’s not like caking it on her face

Yes. There’s make up that blends in good with natural looks so maybe compromise?
Yes she’s her own person. She needs to understand what she likes and dislikes.
But I would also explained that she really doesn’t need it to make herself look beautiful

I never said No to my 12 and 13 year old girls. Couple times they did wear some makeup but now they just put lipstick and eyeliner and that’s about it. Seen kids in her school that wear full makeup. More you say no more they would want too
Mine will wear tiny but mascara and lip gloss that’s it

My teen wears makeup to school as do everyone of her friends. In America most teenagers were makeup .
Yeah. My daughter is allowed to wear lip gloss now but when she is in high school I would more than let her do soft makeup. There has to be limitations on the type of make up look. Otherwise my daughter would go full Mimi every chance she could.

Yes. She doesn’t need to do a full face. This is perfectly normal and always has been. Let her do a lip gloss and mascara and a little light eye shadow. But at the same time, it’s your child so it’s up to you to
The more you don’t ‘allow’ a teen to do, the more they will find ways around it. Friends will do it for them at school. 
Yes. Unfortunately, it’s a right of passage in our culture
