Male soldiers are not authorized to wear cosmetics either in uniform or in civilian clothing on a military installation. And it's an unwritten rule you don't wear makeup when you're off the installation either.

Female soldiers in uniform or on duty in civilian clothing may wear cosmetics, but they must be "conservative and compliment the uniform." (That phrase is straight from Army Regulation 670-1, which is the Army dress code.) Female soldiers off duty can wear as much makeup as they want.

There are also nail polish regulations (none for men, on women only in dress uniforms) and a very, VERY long list of regs regarding your hair.

That's how the regulation reads. In practice, no one can agree on the definition of "conservative and compliments the uniform" so to save themselves grief, most female enlisted soldiers don't wear any on duty. Many female officers do, but people figure officers know the regulations from memory.

How much makeup should a 17 year old wear to high school?

While we cannot see the picture you wanted us to see, we can tell you this: every makeup artist who works with young women says makeup should always be subtle. If people can see it from a distance, it's too heavy. Wear the least amount possible. Also, consider the fact that you may look fine the way you are, and you may not need much makeup, or any at all, for that matter.


How do you wear makeup without looking ridiculous?

First, there is no obligation for you to wear makeup. While many cultures have some ideal that women are expected to live up to (long eye-lashes, for example), the truth is that you are fine the way you are, and self-image has nothing to do with which cosmetics you use-- it has to do with what you believe about yourself. Some people are naturally attractive, and it is not because they do or do not wear makeup. That said, the key to wearing makeup, according to experts who apply it, is to be very subtle. If you use too much, people will notice it and yes, they will think you look ridiculous. The trick is to use as little as possible-- just enough to bring out a particular feature, but not so much that people focus on the makeup rather than on you as a person. If I were you, I would ask someone who is a professional makeup artist to give you some advice, so that you will find just the right "look" that is appropriate for your particular needs.
