Speaking from experience, Audio, it’s apples and oranges when it comes to clothes and makeup with junior high girls. Fashion advice does not incur junior high girl wrath like a comment about her makeup, especially right before school. She can chalk up the occasional “trampy” clothes comment to a difference of opinion, i.e. unhip, old-fart parent vs. cool eighth grader. But, makeup advice, and remember, they spend hours, sometimes days, beautifying themselves and getting that makeup PERFECT, will bring on the wrath of Xena, the 14-y/o warrior princess. First, there’s the black eyeliner, then a couple of layers of eye shadow, then some white shimmer eyeshadow, followed by white eyeliner, then red eyeliner, some black, shimmer lipstick…Voila! Ready for school! (I’m exaggerating, don’t flame me.) :D
