We’ve had more than one customer enquiry this week asking about makeup that’s suitable for teenagers. While everything in store is either natural or certified organic and perfectly safe for their skin, there’s a huge range of products to choose from, where you can range from a subtle and delicate makeup job right through to dramatic goth.

With this in mind, we thought we’d highlight a handful of products that are suitable for a young teen who’s build their first natural makeup bag and we’ve made a nice balance between making mum happy vs making the teen happy!

THE BASICS

BB Cream instead of foundation

Sometimes when you look at someone, you can instantly tell they’re wearing makeup because their foundation is heavy, one solid colour and sometimes, not colour matched very well. Take the hassle out of foundation in your teens first makeup bag by choosing a BB Cream instead.

BB Creams are a ‘blemish balm’ and they’re designed to have a little bit of an air-brush effect, evening out skin tones but without providing a solid layer of colour.

La Mav BB Cream $39.95 CERTIFIED ORGANIC

Mascara that won’t irritate the eyes

The gentlest natural mascara on the market is made by Ere Perez as well. It’s based on almond oil, is smudgeproof and water resistant and it easily washed off with a little bit of coconut oil after wearing. It’s even suitable for people who wear contact lenses it’s so gentle.
