Was I Too Young?

Was I too young? You should be more specific about what you are asking, you should try asking “Was I too young for … .” Place the subject of question where the … occurs. If you were asking too young to wear makeup? or were you asking if your mother was wrong to put it on you? Either way it’s who you are. and if make-up provides you happiness and could also with an income, then follow your dream of creating something beautiful from a face.

Make-up is worn in many cultures and many areas of the world, perhaps your decendants may have even originated from any historic culture wore make-up.

Make-up can be a beauty thing or it can be a spiritual think, much in the way clothes and objects can be sacred. The preperation and ritual of make-up would help to give importance to a significant event. In America where I live and possibly you do as well, there has become an association as make-up as wrong, some of it stemming from controversy behind Beauty Pagents. But beauty pagents aren’t just about make-up and it wrongly took the blame. There are phrases like ‘getting dolled up’ that have had times of popularity. The view of make-up as bad has been given to the way it has been used as a means to attract possible suitors, consider it highly evolved way of birds attracting suitors with their mate. If you were looking for a scientific answer, I’m not sure of studies done on effects of make-up, but just remember human behavior is sometimes unexplainable, and the concept of too young depends on how you personally feel about it. From the information you provided in the question you didn’t relate and ill effects of enjoying make-up so the answer would be no. If there have been ill effects of the make-up it would be better to ask about the ill effects of the make-up in another more technical category.

Just remember as a long time enjoyer of all make up, from war to theatre I find all of make-up a beautiful artistic and fascinating piece of human culture, but remember that the beautiful colors of the earth only help to emulate the feeling and emotions that come from the inside of you, and that’s what make you, who you are. Also being young it’s always easy to question what happens when your younger, whether it be friendships or academic or extra-curricular. And as you get older you are a better judge of things if they were too ‘this’ or too ‘that’. Hope your enjoying the time it takes to put on make-up, because if you want the type of make-up artist job you see on tv (example- Top Model, you have to do it for long periods of time, and if you love doing it, consider it practicing your craft.
