I say yes because I did when I was 14 but only cover the places you are concerned about and not your whole face I used it to cover my redness

I think if you just moisturize you should be fine. Unless you have acne of some sort, I don't really see why a 14-year old should have to wear foundation.

I'm the same age and I wear foundation every day as long as you pick the right shade and something that doesn't have a full coverage I think you'll be fine.

As long as you wash it off properly everyday your skin should be fine, spots come naturally anyway at that age but it will ruin your confidence, I started wearing make up at that age to and now I won't leave the house without.

Yes you should. If you don't have any blemishes, uneven skin tone, or red patches/marks there is no point to wearing it because the whole point of goundation is to cover those things up. I would suggest a BB cream if you still want something along those lines. I like the one from Maybaline but there are other good ones from Covergirl, Olay, Loreal, Etc.

Nooo put it off as far as possible...if your skin looks good...try jus BB cream at the most or tinted moisturizer.

If there isnt anything to cover then I fail to see the point in using it. when my skin was clear I'd wear concealer for problem areas and that's it. :)

I've been wearing foundation... And a lot of makeup since I was ten... I don't wash my face at night... I've never had acne. I like it because it evens my skin tone and makes my face look more flawless. But It's totally up to you... If you're skin looks good without it, it's a waste of money. I spend a lot to keep up with my makeup. (: I wouldn't say not to wear any because I have worn a lot of makeup for a long time. But I have heard that it causes wrinkles early, but have also seen adults who have been wearing makeup their whole life with perfect skin and no wrinkles. Do whatever makes you feel good about yourself (:

I'm fourteen too and I wear a pressed mineral powder to cover redness and just even out my face. Don't use foundation if you have nothing to hide! :)
