I think I was in 10th grade, and it was super cool to get the free gift with purchase (because it came with a cute bag). I bought a powder from Clinique.

Uhh, at age 28 I never have. Maybe that's what I'll ask for as a graduation gift, hehe.

Clinique for me too! I bought the 3-step and some lipstick (and got a free gift bag of sample stuff too!) senior year of high school, right around prom. Ah, the good old days.

I bought Shiseido face wash from their Pureness line in 11th grade--not sure if that counts. After that I bought Mac foundation in college when I was 21.

OMG - Clinique for me, too! Seventh grade I thought I was the coolest and bought Black Honey, another pinkish one (I feel like it was called Almost Kissed??) and pressed powder!
hostess / wonderful watermelon / 39513 posts
@JerricaBenton: I think Almost Kissed was my next purchase! Lol

@autumnlove: That's so funny! I wonder if this is just girls around our age or are they still buying Black Honey? Probably not judging by the girls I see around!

@JerricaBenton: @autumnlove: I'm guessing you guys are roughly the same age as me cuz all the girls were buying black honey as their first lipstick at the time!

I'm almost 30 and have never bought makeup from a department store counter. Maybe I'm missing out on something big here?

Haha no! I was gifted all my makeup as a teen and never purchased stuff until I was about 20-21. And I mostly shop online

The summer before senior year, I went to the Bobbi Brown counter to learn how to do my makeup (nicer than my stage makeup) for my senior portraits. I've used BB ever since!

Not a department store but I do remember going to get my first make-up and my first "do" at Merle Norman in the mall before one of my high school dances. I felt so grown up.
