I decided to go with a natural lip gloss for when my daughter first started wanted to wear makeup. I got for her the Somaluxe Raspberry Red Lip Gloss – and she loves it!! It comes in a cute jar, and it doesnt have any chemicals in it. The red is like a tint – not too much – perfect for a new teenager.
Unofficially, 6 or years old.- playing with my mother’s cosmetics. Officially at 16 years old when my mother said i could actually go outside with makeup on my face – lol.
I would use lipbalm and gloss (with pinkish tones) since 7/8 years…when i was 14 i learned how to use eyeliner and from them on I grew up on the makeup department to pretty much everything. But as a ballerina since 3yrs old I have always used makeup.
My mom wouldn’t let me until I was a Freshman in high school, and even then it was only mascara and moisturizer. I think this was really smart because it helped me to be comfortable and confident in my own skin! And I also didn’t clog up my pores with foundation that I didn’t need and I didn’t strip away at my skin with harsh cleaners. My momma was definitely smart in what she taught me about makeup.
If it was up to my Father I would have never worn makeup. He always reassured my sister and I that “you don’t need that gunk on your face!!”. I did have to start applying the gunk on for the high school dance team I started my freshman year. This transitioned me into wearing light makeup outside of performances such as mascara, or sometimes blush (on extra special days). Today, I am still confident in my natural beauty, sticking to slim or no makeup. Thanks to a dad who also always said “that gunk will only cover your girls’ pretty faces”.
I started wearing makeup (just clear mascara at first) in middle school. I didn’t do it because I hated my skin or the way I looked, but because I enjoyed learning and experimenting with how I could highlight my natural beauty.

Age 13 (lipstick and eyeliner). Though my mum did let me wear a lip balm with very subtle sparkle in it when i was 11…
