Do you let your kids wear/play with your makeup?

When I was a kid I know I used to have some make up to play with, like specific for little girls, so that would probably be what I would do if I ever have kids of my own. ( I used to love my tiny lipsticks <3).

Yeah, I agree with the skin sensitivity thing - so my kids can't touch foundation for a long time. (when I have them.) lol.

I have a two year old daughter who is a few months away from turning 3. I let her use my Chapstick and then just recently she took an interest in nail polish, which was odd since I usually only use a nail growth clear coat unless there is a special occasion. I normally wouldn't let her have her nails painted so young, however she gives her father and I a horrid time when it comes to cutting her nails. We have to cut them at least once to twice a week and she asked if I would paint her nails in return for her not kicking me if I try to cut her nails so after a talk with her father we decided it was a reasonable request from her and so twice a week I use the cheap wet and wild pink I have to paint her nails. I am however thinking of buying some of the hello kitty or Minnie Mouse nail polishes I see in mini packs for her stocking this Christmas. I figure if I get her her own in colors she can choose from it might be a nice present. I really love the quality time we get sitting there painting and blowing on her nails. That's it for now though. I don't think I will let her use any other make ups until at least middle school and I don't even know if that is too soon. I think kids are already growing up too fast and that when a 10 year old feels the need to wear lots of make up so boys will like them or because everyone else is doing it, that we all need to tell them not to rush through childhood.

IKR! Or little girls dressing up like teenagers! When I was a kid I used to LOVE my cute dresses, girly dresses and my mom would always pick my clothes and I loved them, when I have kids, I so want to get them cute dresses!
