DD (nearly 11) wants mascara - she has very long curly dark eyelashes - do you think I will get away with buying her clear mascara? & coud you recommend a brand

Umm that is it really

I know I am old fashioned

if she's got naturally long & dark lashes, why does she need mascara???
Too young IMO for makeup

[http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=6335 heres one]]

but google theres loads

try again

I think 11's too young - it might be like the 'gateway drug' theory; she'll start on clear mascara, this will lead to a bit of blusher and before you know it she'll have a crippling foundation habit!

Anna888 are you serious?

DD is 14 and does not wear it

If she goes to a friends house and dallies in the stuff then for at least a week there is dark evidence

AWFUL

I thinkj it's ok. dd1 had some mascara at 11. Every so often she has a make-up session. Doesn't bother me.

My DD, 12 wears a clear Boots 17 mascara.
Avon also do one.
