My daughter is five, She is always playing in and putting on my makeup. I make her take it off. I notice at the store the have the kiddie make up kits. I personally prefer her without the makeup. I see other very youngs girls wearing it as well. What age do you think is appropriate.

I have two stepdaughters one 9 and one 13, the 9 year old does play with the kids makeup it is safe and alright for her and the 13 year old is just starting to wear real makeup I think as long as they don;t overdo putting it on it is fine..most start alot younger I know but I think for real makeup 13 is a good age..that is the age that I use anyway why not sure maybe cause they are in 7th grade and it is the in thing these days for that age to start wearing it.

Yeah, If they don't overdo it, I guess it is ok. It takes away from their age and innocense a lil bit to me though.

if it is just for play and dress up and you are jsut at home, then id let them play around 6 or so...as long as they arent going out with it. You know all little girls wanna try their mommys makeup on.
