I have recently been wearing foundation every day but I don't have any blemishes. should I stop?

I would suggest If you want to wear face makeup, try bb cream or tinted moisturizer:)
You shouldn't over do the makeup when you have clear skin because it could cause blemishes. You could also try just concealer and powder:)

Um, I'd say yes beacause it is ageing your skin faster , maybe use a LIGHT dusting of powder at the most to help sweating , and set the makeup.

If you don't have any acne to cover up, then foundation is pointless. Try a bb cream instead.

Yes I think it would be best if you stopped.

Don't wear any foundation! The continued use of foundation causes blemishes and early wrinkles. Your skin is young and flawless around this age use it to your advantage!

If you don't have anything to cover up then there's no real reason you should be putting something as thick as a foundation on. If you want to balance your skin tone then a BB cream would be best. Other than that I think you should stop.

I regret putting makeup coverage at that age. It does create blemishes and it might become a routine since your skin looks clear and pretty when wearing cover up :) try BB cream or just mineral powder much safer

I think you should go the natural route your only 14 plenty of time for foundation when your older

I started doing this when I was 13. I had flawless skin but I felt the need to put on foundation just because I thought it would make me prettier.
BIG MISTAKE.
Because my skin was so young and going through puberty it reacted horribly once I turned 15. I was breaking out, covering it with more makeup and breaking out again. It was a horrible cycle that took a lot of time to fix.
Do what I didn't do: take care of your face now so that maybe in the future you don't have to put on foundation.
Wash your face everyday with a light face wash or apply a toner (a toner is an alcohol based cleanser that removes impurities and kills bacteria- I your skin is sensitive it might dry you out) and then wear a lotion.
I had my sister do this and her skin is PERFECT.
Hope this was helpful!:)

You do not need to wear foundation at 14... In my opinion lip gloss and a little mascara is all you need.

It's bad for skin! If you need something wear like a BB cream , but no foundation!

No! I'm 13 and I would ever do that. Only a BB cream or light spot coverup.

NO! Your skin is beautiful and young, never wear foundation if you don't have to.

Only wear light makeup like a bb cream for special occasions if you want.

Hmmm... I would go for a bb cream. I think foundation is a little too heavy for young girls.
