I need some advice from teenage girls?

So my cousin (who is turning 13 in two months) want to wear make up.


I personally started wearing it since I was like 16 and so I think it's a bit to early, but wtvr..


I have a lot of make up and a pretty big collection and she like admires it and always asks me to put some make up on her every time I see her, and I gladly do it for her since I LOVE MAKE UP!


Anyways, her mom (also my aunt) is completely against her wearing make up until shes like in high school (possibly even older), and my cousin wants me to help her to convince her mom about it.


I mean, I think it's a bit ridiculous that she wants to wear make up at such a young age. I'm almost 20 and I recently started wearing full make up!!


So, can you tell me how you convinced your parents???I need some advice from teenage girls?
i started wearing make up in the 7th grade and I TOTALLY REGRET IT!!!!! now i feel naked without it but life would be sooo much easier if i didnt have to put make up on all the time. but i would convince her mom to let her wear clear mascara (it works..kinda), and clearish eyeshadow with glitter.. like maybe a shimmery light pink. and lip gloss. and thats good enough for that little chickie!!!I need some advice from teenage girls?
Make-up is not that big of a deal, I started wearing it when i was 12 or 13. I started wearing my mum's older makeup she didnt like anymore, so I didnt really have to convince her..


Your cousin doesn't have to go full on cake-face, but surely a little lip gloss and eyeshadow isn't such a big deal? Its just something that some girls like to wear: doesn't mean that she is going to be skanky or whatever. Its not that bad, its fun.
try talking to her and let her know that all girls feel extra pretty when they wear makeup but that doesn't mean you're not pretty without it. if she still wants to she could try starting off slow with lip gloss and work from there.





btw i've started an advice column on youtube about questions like this. if you want to check it out and comment whatever other questions you may have i'd be glad to answer them. :)

Try to convice her to start small. Maybe just a little eyeshadow or blush. Don't let her go for the eyeliner right off the bat. That's what I did when I was about her age. Try giving her some simple, sparkly stuff meant for pre-teens or something. Then when she gets to high school, she and her mom can talk about how much she can wear.





Good luck!
when i was 13 all i wanted to do was experiment with make up


and i would tell my mother that i would start out small.





she bought me this little make up kit with a diagram of how to put it on.





if you just reassure them that she is growing up and she wants to try something new then sooner or later they should give in
i told them that i wouldn't wear like over the top clown looking makeup. only the basics: mascara eyeliner eye shadow. not all of the concealers and things because they make my face breakout at a young age. those facial things are bad on young skin. they said i could wear it as long as it wasn't totally obvious and whako!
Ha thats strange. I've been wearing like marlyn manson dark make-up since I was about 12. :)





But, I think it more depends on the parents. If they dont want their child wearing it, then thats the way it will be. Try putting a little on her and show her mom what it looks like, and that its not that bad,.
Well, 4 me, my parents r care-free on the make-up. I didn't ask and just wore it one day and they didn't tell me 2 take it off so since then I've worn make-up. btw, I was 13.


In ur situation, u might say that all the girls r wearing make-up now. Or, say, this is really what I want. Please, let me give it a try...???? Don't 4get the puppy-dog eyes!
I started 7th grade at 12 about to turn 13.I asked and got my sister to talk to my mom.


Tell your aunt thatd itd only be a little(eyeshadow,blush,lip gloss)and that youll teach her how to apply it so she doesnt look like a tramp.
I just wore very little makeup at first like lip gloss and a little mascara then put like eyeliner on after a little while then blush and stuff. Soon my parents didn't even notice haha.
I am 13 and I wear makeup. Most Of my friends wear a full face of makeup. I think its not 2 young, just say that all the girls are wearing it now. :)
showed them how mature i am and how responsible i can be..........
beg them and say that they would be the best ever! haha
there is no way you could convince her mom into lettin her 13 year old wear make up..if she doesnt approve of it...and i personally think u souldnt try either she is really young and i agree with you i started wearin full make by senior year h.s


kids these days shouldnt look older than they really are...there are some really young skanky girls out there not that im blaming only make up but still...if anything convince your cousin that shes cute without it ...all she really need right now is some lipgloss and maybe a lil blush...and tell her when she gets OLDER youd be the first one to help her out in applying all the other good stuff like mascara and eyshadows and stuff since she admires you...but for now she might have to wait in a bit :)
I started experimenting with makeup at around 15. Didn't really have to say anything.. I just dabbed on a little concealer and gloss and some mascara. No one really said anything but Mum asked me later what kind of mascara I'd applied because it made my lashes look really curled without using a curler. I guess mums know more than what they're letting on.





You could probably promise your aunt that you'll introduce her to makeup slowly.. no full-faced or outrageous makeup at 13, but perhaps the natural, fresh-faced look with light pink gloss and brown mascara. Just make sure to keep it light, no foundation/dark eyeliner. That should do it lol..
