5 Beauty Looks That Your Teenage Daughter Will Love—And You Will Too!

Celeb-inspired beauty looks that you'll be comfortable with your teenage daughter wearing when she starts to experiment with makeup.

Teen Beauty Queen

These beauty queens ruled the red carpet and won a lot more than just a Kid’s Choice Award— they stole the show when it came to beauty, too. Here are five parent-approved beauty looks that you’ll be comfortable with your teenage daughter wearing when she starts to experiment with makeup.

Summer Shimmer

The trick to keeping your makeup look youthful and fresh is limiting yourself to to or three products. If you have a daughter or niece in high school, consider letting her play with lashes for her next formal. Keep the rest of her makeup minimal and enhance her glow with a face & body shimmer.

Line ‘Em Up

Glossy lips always have a youthful vibe. For the girl on the cusp of womanhood, a winged liner is a way to test the beauty waters. To up the glow factor, dust a bronzer in the crease.

Subtle Smokey Eye

For the girl who’s gloser to 18 than 15, take a cue from Sydney Park and take the beauty up a notch by defining her crease with a charcoal shadow. Keep the lips a glossy pink-nude.

05
Prom Perfect

Zendaya offers a lesson in prom chic, showcasing glowing skin, bronzed cheeks and creamy pink lips. Of course, no look is complete without the perfect feline flick. A simple cat-eye liner pulls everything together.

06
Playing Punk

Keke Palmer takes rocker chic to new heights with this beauty look. Up the ante on a smoky eye by adding a hint of purple to the center of your upper lid. Flush your cheeks with your favorite pale pink hue and add a frosted rose lipstick to your pout.
