Are these good beauty products for a 13 year old?
Well... I'm 13 and I just got a ton of birthday money and I wanna splurge on beauty products and clothes...
So for skin care:
Clinique Rinse Off Foaming Cleanser
The Body Shop Aloe Calming Toner
The Body Shop Vitamin E SPF 15 Moisture Lotion
Makeup:
Clinique Even Better SPF 15 Foundation in Alabaster
MAC Iridescent Loose Powder in Silver Dusk
Almay Nearly Naked Concealer Stick in Light
MAC Eye Kohl Eye Pencil in Fascinating (white)
Revlon Ultra Curl Lash Curler
Laura Mercer Lip Plumper in Wildberry
Stila Lip Glaze in Guava
Live Clean Invigorating Green Earth Shampoo
Live Clean Fresh Water Moisturizing Conditioner
So I know, lots of really expensive brands but I got a lot more money than usual so I have 300 dollars in birthday money, is that enough to buy all of this? And also, it may sound weird that I'm using two lip glosses, but the Stila one adds a nice sheen and it's supposed to be really moisturizing so I wanna buy that one and the Laura Mercier Lip Plumper, it's supposed to plump your lips nicely and I want my lips to be a little more full but I won't use it too much, cause I don't want really pouty lips... and also it's supposed to be more rich in color while the Stila one is a bit transparent so I put them together...
No my skin is REALLY bad. I have freckles and red blotches everywhere which looks weird on my fair skin
Who said I wouldn't buy one at a time? And also the only reason I'm choosing pricier brands is because I go to Sephora a lot with my mom, and I don't wanna buy brands that test on animals, and most drugstore brands do.

Personally this is what I would get
If you have problems with your skin use the clinique three step system, get the person to find the right stuff for you-it works so well. I have used it for years and have had great skin! Spend the money on it. I like the body shop and would reccomend the warming mineral mask.
I wouldn’t wear foundation so young, it is only worse for your skin. If you do get one specifically designed for acne. I wouldn’t get most of the products you were getting, but if you want them you can get them, I personally really like mac eyeshadows in satin taupe, all that glitters, and honey lust. I would also recomend their lusterglass. I love tarte cheek stain. It is amazing! I also like nars products but they are really expensive. Drugstores are good too, and so much cheaper.
I have never tried the live clean shampoo and conditioner but I really love both Pantene and Paul Mitchell!
Overall I think you are a little young to spend 300 dollars on makeup, but if you really want it I hope you love what you get and don’t go too over the top! Enjoy your makeup!

You don’t need all those things. Honestly, that’s a waste of $300 bucks. I can buy a sh*t load more makeup than what you have with $300 bucks. Have you ever even tried any of the products? What if you end up being allergic? Waste of money, no? Buy things one at a time to see if you like them or not. Plus, you’re 13. Stick to drug store make up since I’m assuming your skin isn’t that bad. When you get older like highschool adn such than start buying MAC and all those other band wagon brands.
Well you stated "So I know, lots of really expensive brands but I got a lot more money than usual so I have 300 dollars in birthday money, is that enough to buy all of this? " so I assumed it was a one time make up haul. Anyways, whatever do your thing. Just don’t buy mac makeup brushes since they’re animal hairs.

Actually. Im re doing my answer because i looked at it wrong. That sounds great if you drop the concealer. Your makeup sounds very natural but keep in minds foundation and concealer with powder will just ruin your skin. Your skincare is perfect

i just recommend getting face skin from clinique and foundation from any (high price products)
since you want the best quality for your face.
but i suggest getting loose powder,eye liner, lip balm, mascara(maybelline colossal) all from drugstore.there the same quality some even better
