I am going into high school and my mom will only let me wear mascara and eyeshadow. She lets me wear eyeshadow because she knows that I don’t want too. When I entered middle school she told me I could start wearing makeup, then she told me she meant high school, well now the time is hear and she is saying no. Of course she is giving me the you are beautiful with out makeup, which I believe, but I do want to use a little eyeliner and a little powder. She has raised me right, and I don’t want to cake it on my face. She won’t even give me a chance, every time I mention the word eyeliner she says absolutley not and brings up the name of a girl who cakes makeup on her face. I get Straight A’s, and I am the president of the honor society. I am to the point where I am ready to go behind her back, but then that would just prove to her that I am immature, and I don’t want that. I just want her to cut the string loose a little. Any advice?
Ask your mom for a “girl’s day” Let her pick what she wants to do for the first half of the day,. . . . And you get the second half.
Rule #1 for each of you. each portion of the day must be a surprise to the other. Your mom can’t tell you what she is planning and same applies to you. Rule #2 absolutely no rejected each others idea.
On your portion of the day, take her to the mall and have your makeup done, in front of your mother tell the makeup artist that you want only “light and natural”.
You are onto the next stage of loving your mom as a parent and liking your mom as a friend . . . . Your mom also cross the stage of realizing her baby girl is growing up . . and because she has obviously done such a great job as your mom, you wearing makeup WILL NOT speed up that progress.

I am a mom of a little girl..and when that day comes and i was in the same situation as your mom i would let you wear makeup i would just monitor how much you are wearing and maybe check your bag to make sure you arent sneaking it out to put more on until i trust that you wouldnt do that..i hope this helps and makes sense
