[quote=Anonymous]If you want to make this a hill to die on, have at it. But lots of parents actually start to compromise on this stuff in 5th grade. Maybe a lip gloss for a special event. Or letting them have eyeliner just to practice at home but not to wear to school. You do you. I will say that my experience with my 8th grader is that girls wore a little makeup in 5th and 6th grade (my daughter did not until 6th). In 7th grade, they wore quite a bit of makeup and spent a lot of time getting ready. But they did a way better job with makeup than most moms did when they were kids. And then by 8th grade, they are over it and want to sleep in so they just throw on a little mascara. Not fighting the fight in 7th grade made is easier for her to just give it up in 8th with no commentary by anyone about it. The girls are also mostly putting on makeup to impress themselves and each other. Very little of this is to impress a boy.[/quote]
