Hi
What's your opinion about make up for young teens?
My oldest girl is in y8 and she wants to wear a full face of make up to school every day. I do wear make up but not a lot of it, and when I was at school we were not allowed any. She has make up that she has bought herself or old bits of mine that she has collected. I bought her some concealer so at least the colour matches better. She is coming downstairs in heavy make up each morning and it is making arguments in the house as me and my husband are both really uncomfortable with it. I feel she is far too young for this and I don't want her to clog her perfect skin. She is not even in puberty yet. I am trying to suggest she wears a small amount of concealer, mascara etc and has more fun with it at the weekend, be subtle on school days, but she won't change what she does. She's ignoring me for weeks about it, and so we are having conflict each morning now. I find the make up embarrassing as she is only 12.
What's your view ? Am I just old fashioned??! Thanks!
