Tutorial: Kids Play Makeup

Posted By:  Stephanie


Lately my little girl who's 2 loves to play with makeup.  It doesn't matter to her if it is real or fake, to her it is all VERY real = )

I decided that I would get a head start on Christmas gifts and make her a set of eye shadows and blush to go in a "makeup" kit for her.


I got these from the Dollar Store, that way I wasn't wasting good makeup.  I don't wear enough myself to have a lot of spare containers laying around, if you do use those.


Pick some nail polish colors you feel would work well for your "makeup".


I found using a toothpick and running it around the outer edge of the makeup made it either pop right out or break up really well so it came out pretty clean.


I then used a q-tip to clean out the corners to make them really look nice and real makeup free.


Next add the nail polish.  I did just enough so that the bottom was covered and you don't see metal, then paint the outer brim of the metal to give it the effect that it is completely full.


There you have it, mess free makeup for your little one or as a gift for a little girl you know would love it.  All you have to do is wait for it to dry.  Warning, this is a bit of a stinky process!
