The Parent's No-Panic Guide to Teen Makeup: 7 Products They Actually Need!

Is your teen suddenly interested in makeup but you have no idea where to start as a parent? We've got you covered.

Kelly and Sarah Marie are breaking down the ultimate teen beauty starter pack – a parent's guide to gentle, affordable makeup essentials that won't overwhelm young skin (or your credit card statement). Learn exactly what products are worth investing in and which ones can wait until they're older.

Along with their own trip down memory lane - including Sarah Marie's over-plucked "sperm eyebrows" and Kelly's frosted lipstick phase - consider this your roadmap to helping your teen avoid the same regrettable experiments!
