Very few thirteen year old girls wear makeup. Most only wear things around th lines of lip gloss. Some may wear light blush or eyeshadow, but they rarely look bad due to it.

Well, I usually don't put on make up, and when I'm home I tend to wear a big sloppy t-shirt, and in school I wear a sloppy hoody. It feels good to just relax.. ^^

I just wear whatever my parents buy me that looks cute, which is usually inexpensive and nice and simple And I never wear any more makeup than lip gloss, though I wish I could start wearing something for my eyes

What's odd is, whenever I start ignoring the hypered-up-little-kid-who-won't-stop-giggling side of myself, people my age actually start to like me... then the second it takes over again, I lose any and all respect I have managed to build and I find myself as friendless as ever. Kinda sad, other than some friends who are a lot younger than me that I barely ever see, I have more friends (and really, really good friends, actually) online. Ironic.

I don't like Hollister, Aeropostale, and A&E. Hate makeup, only for Halloween will I wear it. The people at my school put WAY too much makeup on, they kinda remind of raccoons...

Hot Topic isn't exactly inexpensive and I think it's a brand name in itself. Don't they have like $70 pants and $20 t-shirts?

Anyway, I'm 18 and I only wear foundation or whatever, and my normal wardrobe is jeans t-shirt and a hoodie.
Feels good, man.

People can wear whatever they want, is it so bad that some people want to follow trends? Maybe that is who they are, and it makes them happy. Also, hot topic is just as much of a "mainstream" store as anywhere else, it just appeals to a different group of people.

I'm 16/1 month away from 17, and I don't wear a lick of makeup. Some concealer, maybe, but only during really bad breakouts. My ears aren't pierced, because I have a deathly fear of needles/pokey-jabby things. XD I wear clothes I pick up from thrift stores/other nifty places. So yeah. I think I own one thing from Aeropostale, and that's the flannel jammies because they're really soft and comfy X3

I care about looking good and stuff, but that's part of being myself. I feel like crap if I don't look halfway decent usually. I also sometimes wear mascara because my eyelashes are like, blond and stubby xD But that's about as much makeup as I wear. I definitely have a really unique personality, and a hot temper. I love my temper though because it means I'm not afraid to stand up for myself or my friends, and it usually keeps people from messing with me. I'm in 7th grade and I almost pushed over some 8th grade guy in band yesterday because he ticked me off. He decided that he needed like, 3 freaking feet to fit his chair in and started moving my chair with his foot.
