For my first BTS post I thought I'd show you middle school makeup for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. In middle school you're growing up and your interests may change a bit, and so might your appearance. You may start developing acne. The next thing you know, you're heading to the drug store for some makeup.
But what makeup is appropriate for a girl your age? In this post, I'll show you what I wore and what I believe is appropriate for middle school.
6th Grade
In 6th grade, your face is probably naturally beautiful already. But I began developing acne in 6th grade, so if this is your case here's what you can do:
What I use:
- Maybelline BB Cream
- EOS Coconut Milk Lip Balm
As you can see, for this look, I go very light. In 6th grade, when I asked my mom if I could start wearing makeup, she told me how naturally beautiful I already was. I was still young, so I really didn't need a lot of makeup. Around that time, however, acne was really getting on my nerves.
For my makeup, I used a bit of BB cream and some lip balm to moisturize my lips. The BB cream gave me just the amount of coverage I needed without looking like I had a ton of makeup on.

7th Grade
Moving on to 7th grade, you're getting older. Your eyes may seem a little dull, and you may wanna upgrade your makeup routine to a bit of a more mature level.
What I use:
- Maybelline BB Cream
- EOS Coconut Milk Lip Balm
- Magenta Mint Mentha Lip Tint (from Bath & Body Works)
- Physician's Formula Organic Wear Jumbo Lash Mascara
- Maybelline Press Powder
Adding on the the 6th grade makeup, this lip gloss is a great way to look a bit older while keeping the makeup nice and light. Also, 7th grade was when I started using mascara. I love the Physician's Formula mascara because it's not synthetic, it's organic, and it last's a long time and looks great. One thin coat should do the trick for your lashes. Another thing I did (and forgot to photograph) was use a press powder to matte-ify the BB Cream.

8th Grade Makeup
Whew, 8th grade! Being the oldest in middle school, you can add a bit more makeup to your routine. Here's the look:
What I use:
- Maybelline BB Cream
- EOS Coconut Milk Lip Balm
- Magenta Mint Mentha Lip Tint
- Physician's Formula Organic Wear Jumbo Lash Mascara
- Maybelline Press Powder
- Physician's Formula Organic Wear 2-in-1 Pink Rose Blush & Bronzer Palette
- NYX Adorable Eyeshadow Palette
- Neutrogena Concealer Stick
For this look, I first apply my BB Cream. Because you may have more acne and dark circles in 8th grade, it may help to use a concealer stick under your eyes and on any red spots on your face. Next, I apply my press powder (which, again, I forgot to photograph). For the eyes, you can use some white eyeshadow on the inner corners and a brown chocolate-colored eyeshadow on the outer corners, then apply your mascara. I also used the Physician's Formula Pink Rose blush, which comes in a 2-in-1 blush and bronzer thing (I forgot to photograph that too!). Last but not least, I used the Magenta Mint lip gloss again.

So those are my middle school makeup looks. When I first started wearing makeup, I didn't have the slightest clue what I was doing. I was so scared of going overboard with it all. Luckily, my mom helped me out. In the end, these looks are what I decided were appropriate for someone in middle school to wear to school.
I hope you enjoyed this. If you'd like more Back to School or makeup-related blog posts in the future, let me know!
