MAKE-UP

So Lily got this cute little make-up set last year for her birthday and I had put it away not wanting to deal with the inevitable mess it would create. Well, the cold weather has come again and wanting to give Lily something else to occupy her time inside I unveiled this little beauty. Before she could open it I made her swear to uphold the universal rules of make-up which are : 1. Make-up only goes on your face, NOT WALLS, OR CARPET, OR TOYS, OR BABY SISTERS
2. You can only use make-up if you first get permission from a parent
3. If you do not follow the rules make-up will be taken away until you are more mature to handle it.
Basically, I wanted to impress upon her what a big deal it was. We even got Dad to put up her little shelf under her mirror so she could have somewhere to put it. I have since thought I am crazy for giving a 2 year old play make-up, but it has kept her busy for a bit these past few days and it is so light you can hardly tell she has any on at all. Of course it has been taken away after finding it on things other than her face. But overall, way too cute to see her get all dolled up.
