12 or 13, I wore foundation, mascara and eyeliner. They weren't my own, my mum left her makeup in the bathroom. I didn't cake it on though, just a thin layer. I think it doesn't matter how much you wear at whatever age, as long as you can apply it properly and not get a thick cakey look.

When I was a kid I remember getting lipgloss and blush/ eyeshadows in cute containers. They were a cheap brand designed for little kids to muck around with. I had no idea how to use them though. My sister decided they were good to break and spread through the house aha

Around 14 with mascara. Even now I hardely wear that much make up maybe just a coat of mascara and a lip butter with light powder to control my oil. On special occasions ill do full face but I don't like the feeling of makeup on my face it makes it feel weighed down and like its clogging my pores.

I was 15, and I only was allowed to wear eyeliner and lipgloss lol and I agree with Marie I see 11 years olds in McDonald's that look 16-17 because of all the makeup they wear. It's quite disturbing 😱

I didn't start wearing makeup when I was a junior in high school so I was either 16 or 17. I would only wear mascara and lip gloss and sometimes foundation. I guess I was a late bloomer lol..

I think it's healthier for young girls such as 13 and under to feel comfortable and beautiful in their own skin before they start enhancing their beauty with make up so that they don't get it confused that make up isn't what makes them beautiful. That's my honest opinion though. I wore only eyeliner in my upper waterline in 9th grade). Mascara and liner in waterline 10th grade then liquid liner every once in a while in 11th grade and then just mascara and Chapstick and eyeliner in 12th grade maybe concealer under my eyes from studying long nights.

I don't really count lipgloss as starting to wear makeup as most girls start wearing lipgloss at like 10 or 11. I know in 5th grade I love scented lipgloss and Chapstick.
I played in it a little at 15/16 with eyeliner and eyeliner and then full blown got into everything (mascara, foundation, bb creme, primers, lipstick, etc) at 20 (last year).
