Psh, like 20-21ish. I wore it occasionally but it became an everyday thing when I was in my very early 20s. Before that it was only if I was bored or something and I had no idea what I was doing.

13, with just foundation. A lot of people at school wore it by the time I started, so I felt to join in. o:)

I was about 10. I wore black eyeshadow occasionally. I don't know where I got it but it was super cheap and powdery, lol

When I was about 11/12. That's when I bloomed into my complete 'goth kid' self, which couldnt be complete without unblended black eyeshadow! It was horrible, but every one goes through the 'learning stages' then you look back and you're like 'oh god why?!"
but I was so badass with my black eyeshadow and eyeliner. xD

About 3-4yrs old. Haha I'm a dancer so that was for performances and concerts. Wearing it on a daily basis I'd say I started with maybe a little eyeshadow, mascara and lipgloss when I went out for like dinner or something when I was about 12 or 13. I started wearing concealer and loose powder almost daily when I was about 15 just to cover small pimples that I got. And still don't normally wear heaps unless I'm having a bad skin day. Some concealer, a good Bb cream, black mascara, a coral/pink/nude lipstick or gloss and possibly eyeliner

I started wearing makeup at 12, but I didn't want to put it on every day. So I stopped. Now that I'm almost 14, I still only wearing it maybe once or twice a week? Not that often. But I usually only wear eyeliner and mascara unless I'm going to a party or special occasion.

I started wearing make-up around 10-11. Now, occasionally i put it on every 2-3 days because all my make-up is waterprrof and lasts through the day and showers.

I started just wearing concealed when I was 11 to cover up red spots of irritation on my face, then I started getting into makeup (not that I did crazy dramatic eyes or anything) and skincare (so now my skin is much smoother! Yay!) and now at 13 years I am still wearing makeup (but not as much as the average teenaged girl

11. I was kinda a self conscious kid and I would bring around a eyeliner pencil with me everywhere. After that I started using mascara, then powder, then blush, then eyeshadow, lipgloss, and lipstick. Now I don't use eyeliner pencils, I just use black eyeshadow. Also, I despise blush.

I started to wear makeup when I was 12! I made my mom buy me a Bonne Bell black sparkle eyeliner. I didn't know how to use it properly that's for sure but from then on, it's become an obsession.
