Back to School Make Up Tips for Tweens and Teens
Lips
Lip gloss is a great way to have a bit of tint and shine on the lips. Help your daughter pick flattering shades that compliment her skin tone. Lip gloss can be purchased inexpensively in numerous shades at any drug store with a large selection of make up.
Nails
Spend some time and show your daughter how to do a basic manicure. These manicure items can be purchased inexpensively from The Dollar Tree or similar discount retailer. Tell your daughter what shades she is not allowed to wear. If you do not want your daughter wearing a certain shade, tell her upfront. Give her numerous flattering color choices that she is allowed to wear.
Eyes
Heavy eye make up can make your daughter look older than she is. Clear mascara can help to define the eyelashes. Lengthening mascaras can help to give the look of wearing false lashes. Choose formulas that have oils and vitamins to make the lash look thicker and longer. Pluck excess hairs around the eyebrow. Natural tones in brown or sheer earth tones are perfect for the eyes. These shades can be found in a pencil or roller form for the easiest application.
Foundation
Foundation usually is not needed, unless you are trying to cover up deep blemishes or birthmarks. If your daughter is really interested in foundation, why not introduce her to a light powder. A lightweight powder that will reduce a bit, or cover scars may be well accepted.
A great look can be achieved with the make up. The make up should enhance your daughter's natural beauty. A manicure, flesh toned lip gloss, clear or tinted mascara, and a bit of powder when done right is very age appropriate. An 11 year old tween may be delighted with their new manicure items and lip glosses. An older teen, may have her first trip to the make up counter, instead of the drug store to everything needed for a fully made up face. Helping your teen with a beauty routine can help prevent possible problems that can occur from wearing other people's make up, or copying what looks nice on someone else.

Post a CommentI THINK FOR A GIRL IN MIDDLE SCHOOL LIKE A BEGINNER, SENCE SHE WANTS TO WEAR MAKEUP, HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOUNDATION- A COMPLETE NO, here is why everybody has to have gym for 1 semester or u can have it the whole year, of course your going to be running any foundation is look grose sweaty and cheap stick with powder or mineral u can find it at any drug store just to make the skin look fresh, for eyes u really dont want to go heavy on the eyeliner at all, maybe a brown eyeline and dont have to apply it all on the water line what i think is to apply any kind of eyeline half way to make your eyes look biggers and for mascara just buy any kind mascara completes the eye, finally the lips-if your daughter wants a little shine u can go for an apropriate pink or a nude color, or u can just stick to chapstick when your daughter is a beginner in makeup make sure it is nice and natural dont let her go way out of line.OH I ALMOST FORGOT-EYESHADOW-maybe if it is a brownze kind nothings wrong just mak
