After my older sisters went to the dermatologist for the typical bad skin of teenagers, I was able to skip the worst of that because my Mom started me on (as prescribed to them) Clinique skin care and makeup. I still contend that my skin is in better condition at 45 than my peers because of wearing full makeup at 13. Of course, it was spackled on, but it was the late 70's-early 80's. I stopped wearing full makeup within the last 10 years or so, although I won't go out without mascara and I try to be good about moisturizer (since they all have sunscreen these days) every day.
Funny that Clinique is seen as old lady makeup when it's actually lousy for anyone who doesn't have oily skin. I think the stuff is way too cakey now. But it can sure soak up a 15 year old's greasy face. eeewwwww.
It's part of the process of girls growing up. The best you can do is teach a young girl how to apply it and hopefully a little about color choices. Frankly at 13, girls are mostly NOT very cute, so you might as well move through your gacky makeup phase while you're at it. And hide the cameras.
