Princess dress up games are popular with many young girls, and little ones may want to finish off their costumes by applying a bit of makeup. This may sound like a messy undertaking, but if you follow some tips, your little girl can play with princess-style makeup in a way that won't require a huge amount of clean-up.
Paper Worksheet
Many beauty students practice makeup application on paper sheets with faces drawn on them, and little girls can do the same. Draw an oval shape on a plain sheet of paper and make photocopies so you have several on hand. Then let kids draw on facial features, hair and a princess crown, using crayons. Give your kids some inexpensive makeup items and let them add pink blush, purple eyeshadow and red lips.
Mannequin Heads
Mannequin heads can be purchased at most beauty supply stores, and you can pick a few up to let small girls play with some cheap makeup. Let them apply glitter gel and sparkly eyeshadows to the mannequin, for a real princess look. Keep baby wipes on hand to remove the applied makeup once the girls are finished, so that the heads can be reused.
Spinner Fun
Use a spin dial from a game like Twister to come up with an impromptu princess makeup game. Buy some lipsticks and blushes at your local dollar store and place them in a bowl. Let little ones dress up in their favorite princess outfits, then take turns spinning the dial. When the spinner falls on a child's color, let her choose a makeup product from the bowl and apply it, to go with her costume.
