When You Start Make Up
Have You think, say what age is too young for someone to start using make up? A study released last week by the NPD research company, Insight into the Youth Beauty Market, finds surprising answers to these questions.
According to the study, teenagers and young women into less dependency on beauty and cosmetics. However, prepubescent children (aged approximately 8-12 years) was even more crazy about wearing make up and primp.
Based on these reports, between the increased use of mascara, eyeliner, and lipstick from the year 2007, the use of mascara and eyeliner by a preteen boy was doubled.
However, do not rush scapegoat such as Britney Spears, pop culture and Lady Gaga over this phenomenon. Because, apparently prepubescent children only imitate what is purchased and used by their own sister or mother.
If you have children or younger age of preteens who began showing interest in cosmetics, here are some things worth considering before the permit or prohibit:
* It is normal for a girl to want to use make up and interested in fashion in general. Do not directly rejected his desire. Because, he could be a rebel and use make up with stealth. Rather than forbid use makeup at all, more consideration to allow him to use a light moisturizer, face powder and lip gloss slim.
* Teach him how to apply makeup is right and proper, including how to maintain and clean the face after using makeup. Moreover, prior to puberty the child is prone to acne attacks.
* Restrict the use of makeup for special occasions, such as a friend to a birthday party or other special occasion. Applied your makeup looks natural and does not make him look older than actual age.
