I started wearing makeup when I was in 7th grade. I'm a freshmen now. When I first started, I only wore mascara, concealer and a little lip gloss. I think that 13 is a good age to start. :)

I would say actively wearing makeup everyday should start in high school. I did but in my last two years but I began with simple stuff at the beginning of high school. if you really want to start wearing makeup I would recommend only mascara, a little eyeliner, maybe some lip gloss, and concealer if you need it.

The age depends on you. The only thing that really matters is the amount you apply on your face.
I think that the younger you are, the more natural the look. Heck, I'm turning 17 soon and I have yet to try smokey eye and all those other intricate makeup styles :)

Just do mascara... That's all you need and you will be fine.

13 or 14! I started wearing makeup when I was 6 because I did ballet, and you needed makeup for the performances! I've been obsessed ever since;)

I started wearing makeup when I was in 7th grade and I just wore a simple mascara and concealer. I think that if you feel you need it, then start wearing it. But wear it for yourself, not because everyone else is starting to wear it. Do it for you!(:

I think 13 is an okay age to start wearing makeup.
I started then by wearing tinted moisturizer, mascara and lip gloss.
I think that you should start wearing you feel comfortable, not when someone tells you to or pressures you to.
