Our daughter was not allowed to wear make up (other than playing dress up) until she was 14. Everyone was fine with that (and then the make up was sparingly in good taste). 10 years old is way too young. Lip gloss is ok, but color is too much. She can be well groomed, but not made up at that age. Find little things she can do to feel older (but not look older)as far as grooming. And explain to her that trying to look much older with make up sends the wrong message to older boys. That's my advice.
