Makeup for some can be a serious addiction. The latest trends, makeup products, and celebrity endorsements have taken over social media like a storm and young girls have now started to jump on the bandwagon.
In Pakistan, girls in their early teens are usually asked not to even go near makeup but the west thinks otherwise…
Speaking of which, famous TV star, Armeena Khan came across young girls doing makeup tutorials and here’s how she expressed her thoughts…
Just scrolled through tons and tons of makeup “tutorials” on Instagram. I’m shocked at the 13 year olds teaching me on how to conceal ??. Man, my mom didn’t let me wear makeup till I was 19! The only makeup I had was mud and grass (on my face) from wrecking my mums garden

Many agreed with her
It’s sad to see youngsters nowadays just care about how they look and are always in competition. Most of them don’t even look their age! Im glad I had a proper childhood and was able to do things children should do. I’m 27 and STILL don’t know how to contour ?

Kahan gayi natural beauty, bhai?
But I do think the new generation of girls who have learnt make up at such a young age isn't right because society now is so harsh at times and girls are quick to judge you on appearance. Where has natural beauty disappeared to?

How many of you have actually heard this from your mother: “Beta, ye makeup wakeup shaadi ke baad karna..”
We know that times have changed and a majority of the girls love makeup and enhancing their beauty. Parents of young girls can speak to their daughters and teach them what’s right and wrong and talk to them about age appropriate things.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you think it is okay for young teenagers to cake up their faces? Let us know in the comments.
