Most parents tend to freak out the first time they see their teenager wearing makeup. It’s shocking for them and infuriating for the teen who just wants to express themself. 

One teenager tried putting on a full face of makeup for her 16th birthday, and her parents scolded her to the point of making her cry. 

She’s been looking forward to her 16th birthday for years. Her family recently decided to go all out for her birthday and planned a celebratory family vacation to the Virgin Islands. She went with her mom, dad, and brother. 

She thought it would be an amazing sweet sixteen, but due to some family drama, her big day fell flat. 

Her family tends to argue a lot, and this did not stop during what was supposed to be a memorable birthday vacation.

Things got really tense between her and her parents on the morning of her 16th birthday when she decided to put on a full face of makeup before heading down to get breakfast. She did the same thing on her 15th birthday with no issues.

“When I was putting my foundation on, my dad got super angry and aggressive and yelled at me and said it was too much,” she remembered. 

“It’s never been a problem, but now it suddenly is.”

Her dad even told her he’d be going to breakfast alone because he didn’t want to be seen around her. She was very upset and confused, considering she had worn makeup around her parents for years.

Additionally, she didn’t think she was wearing too much makeup that day and didn’t think it looked bad. 

She had hoped her mom would be on her side, but her mom handed her some makeup remover to take it off. Then, her parents started yelling at her because she was taking too long to take off the full face of makeup, and they wanted to get down to breakfast. 

Her parents went in and out of the bathroom to yell at her and accused her of trying to sneakily put on more makeup behind their backs.

When she finished, she grabbed a bit of concealer and continued to argue with her mom, who eventually told her to “shut up and stop talking.”

“My parents got into a fight about how much makeup I have, and my mom blamed me for the fight,” she explained.

“I wasn’t even the one who bought the makeup in the first place.”

The morning of her 16th was quite disastrous, as the makeup debacle put everyone in a bad mood. More arguing happened on the trip, and she ended up taking most of the blame.

For instance, when her brother tore up their hotel room because he lost his headphones, she got yelled at by her mom for getting upset with him.

“I got a huge attitude with my parents and told them to stop talking and to leave me alone,” she added.

“So I’m probably going to spend my birthday alone in a hotel room.”

For the rest of her birthday, her family tried to act like nothing had happened that morning, but all of the yelling still hurt her. 

Have you ever had those types of arguments with your parents?
