Here is what you will need:
empty make-up containers
nail polish
Wash out the empty make-up containers and dry them well.
(If you don't have any empty ones you are willing to share then you can always go to the dollar store and buy some there and empty them out.)
Choose the colors of nail polish you wish to use. I chose a cream for the "foundation," a rose color for the "blush," and some vivid greens for "eye shadow." Shake your nail polish really well and let set for a minute to allow the air bubbles to rise. Then, carefully pour the selected color into the container of your choosing.

Present them to your princess in a cute make-up bag and let her play!
Creative idea, but here's my question. How easily does the makeup come off and if is nail polish based, can it stain?
ReplyDeleteIt's fake! It's dried nail polish; therefore nothing really comes out of the container. It's kinda like the plastic makeup it's all pretend
ReplyDeletehow fun! another reason I'm sad to have boys.

What a cute idea! My girls would love this! I think. They'd either love it or throw a fit bc it isn't real. I just don't know. They're drama! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteLaura- it is fake. The nail polish hardens and dries over a few days and then it doesnt get on anything =)
ReplyDeleteI love love love this idea! My little one is always wanting make up and this would be perfect for her. Thanks!

does it have a strong nail polish odor when dry???this is a great idea
ReplyDeleteNope, Caylyn...I don't notice a smell at all. I think as the paint dries the smell evaporates.
