All girls want to be like a mother: put on beautiful dresses, shoes, have their own purse and, of course, their own cosmetic bag. Do not deprive your little miss of such pleasure! But at the same time, every mother should know the basic rules of the first make-up: it should be appropriate and safe. In these matters, it helps us to understand professional children's make-up artist-stylist Olesya Tulnikova, Tyumen.
Children's cosmetic bag
Can I use cosmetics from my cosmetic bag for my daughter 7-10 years old? If you use hypoallergenic light cosmetics, then the answer is yes. We are talking about natural and harmless mineral-based products. Such cosmetic products can be found under the following brands:
– Jane Iredale
– Bare Minerals;
– Everyday Minerals;
- Lumiere Mineral.
You can put these products in a children's cosmetic bag:
- mineral blush;
- light pink or lilac shimmering shadows;
- several lip balms with different flavors;
- pink lip gloss;
Choose only high-quality cosmetics for the child. The approach “What difference does it make, she’s a child” is fundamentally wrong: products with a low price are usually of poor quality and can harm delicate children's skin.
The main principle of children's makeup
It is very important to feel the fine line between baby, teen and adult makeup. The main principle of children's makeup is naturalness. Even with a make-up, the child should look as natural as possible, look like himself and correspond to his age. Do not get carried away with daily makeup for a girl of 7-12 years old. It is better to wait until the daughter is at least 13 years old.
Little girls are adorable and adorable even without makeup. They are so by nature! Tons of cosmetics will only spoil the delicate image. However, there are cases when makeup is indispensable.

Photo shoot star
The most common case when children need makeup is photo shoots. Scratches and specks on the face, dark circles under the eyes - all these temporary flaws can reduce the level of natural attractiveness of the young princess. Therefore, it is better to “erase” them with the help of cosmetics. In addition, it does not hurt to emphasize the brightness of the eye and the freshness of the lips, so that the photographs are a success by five points.
If you do not understand such nuances, it is better to entrust it to specialists. A professional make-up artist knows how to correctly emphasize the dignity of the child and hide the flaws that will be visible in the photographs.
Parties and themed events
Makeup for children's parties does not require such care and special knowledge as for photo shoots. Any mom who herself at least once held blush, mascara and lip gloss in her hands is able to make up her child.
The very process of creating an image is already entertainment for girls. You can invite a professional makeup artist or face painting specialist to thematic events. Make a doll out of your daughter, a funny tiger cub or please her with figures of animals on her face? It all depends on the imagination - yours, your daughter and the artist.

Mom can do anything!
Light children's makeup is within the power of every mom and is suitable for any special occasion.
Make-up for daughter from make-up artist-stylist Olesya Tulnikova:
– Apply the mineral foundation (powder) all over the face with a soft, fluffy brush. If a child has a problem of bruising under the eyes, take a thinner brush and work with it locally, because such a tool also works as a corrector.
- Using the pad of your finger, gently apply liquid eyeshadow or pearl, pink or gold tint to the middle of the eyelid. Use light patting movements to blend over the entire moving eyelid.
– Using a soft powder brush, apply pink or peach blush to the apples of your cheeks.
Daily make-up for women is quite a common thing.
But there are situations when little girls need makeup, and it is better to be prepared for them. This is what will be discussed today.
Why do girls need makeup
It's hard to imagine a little girl who wouldn't want to try her mom's or sister's makeup. For girls, this is quite normal to feel in all its glory and become like adults.
But doing makeup every day, perhaps, is not worth it, since it is not at all useful for delicate children's skin and is fraught with consequences, and also has a vulgar appearance.
But sometimes there are times when the use of makeup is simply necessary and appropriate, for example:
Photography. In this case, makeup must be mandatory to create the perfect image and mask various skin defects, even the smallest ones.
Festive events. Funny children's makeup is quite acceptable for New Year's parties, birthdays, Christmas parties and many other holidays.
Now face painting and various fantastic drawings on the face are very popular.
Demonstration performances. To perform on stage, even a little girl, like any actress, needs bright children's makeup so that the child's face does not look faded among the bright contrast of costumes, and it does not matter if your child dances, sings, or engages in other amateur activities.
In ordinary life, you should not apply decorative cosmetics to children and endanger such delicate skin.
Using makeup for photography
Today, photography can be afforded not only by famous personalities, but also by ordinary people.
Children are not inferior to adults in this, because childhood is so fleeting and irrevocable, and I want to leave at least some moments for memories.
The right beautiful makeup for girls will help you create makeup specialists or they will provide the necessary advice. If you have free time and desire, you yourself, in the form of an exciting game, experiment with options, while enjoying the interaction with the child.
For young ladies up to 6-7 years of age, you can not prepare for photography, and from 8 years to 12 girls need preparation in terms of cosmetic intervention:
Use of tone. For this, a light foundation based on water is suitable.
It is applied to a previously cleansed skin surface. Then it is lightly powdered with a brush. The imperfections of the skin will help to hide the corrector. A delicate pink blush is applied to the cheeks.
Eyelash tinting. This is not necessary, it is enough to fluff them up and form them with a colorless gel. It is enough to comb the eyebrows with a brush.
Lip coating. A colorless lip gloss will give some zest.
That's all the accents that will favorably emphasize the freshness of a cute young face for the upcoming photo shoot.
A little older girls need a more extensive set of decorative cosmetics with mascara (brown or dark gray), light shades, light texture lipstick.
To hide age defects, young girls cannot do without a tonal foundation.
Drawings on the face or face art
For the holidays, you can use brighter makeup. It differs from the usual and is called face painting, it is absolutely harmless to the skin, dense in texture and its colors are richer. Easily and completely removed from the skin with warm water.
Face art is used to create catchy masks, as an addition to the image, to create contrasting patterns.
To make children's face painting perfect, it is better to trust the professionals. Such services are quite in demand today.
You can learn how to do face painting yourself, for this you need to have a special set and learn a little.
Many children like face painting and with its help they perfectly transform into various fairy-tale images, for example, mermaids, cats, sea wolves, etc.
Try to choose high-quality face painting, although it is more expensive, because low-quality cheap face painting can harm your health.
For New Year's events and other celebrations, the girl's makeup can be decorated with decorative things in the form of rhinestones and sparkles.
Stage makeup
The main thing here is to focus on the characteristic features of the appearance in order to make it more expressive and bright.
But do not forget that makeup is for children and cosmetics should be of excellent quality, hypoallergenic, not vulgar shades.
To create a stage make-up, you need to have blush, mascara (black or brown), eye contour (brown), lipstick, light tone (if necessary).
Eyes, eyelashes, eyebrows and lips must be tinted, the palette of colors is selected for the outfit and the image as a whole.
Here, perhaps, is a general idea of \u200b\u200bmakeup for girls and its basic principles.
Some options can be seen in the photo of makeup for girls. But, whatever you prefer, you should not make your girl an insensitive barbie or aunt.
Childhood is so beautiful, but very fleeting.

If some kind of children's holiday or matinee is approaching, then every girl wants to be irresistible. Putting on a smart dress, beautiful shoes and doing a haircut, the baby may seem insufficient. Then baby makeup comes to the rescue. The child will be delighted! With him, she will see herself as an adult girl. Give her this pleasure.
Basic moments
It must be remembered that children's makeup is different from an adult. You can not use dense tonal means, they can adversely affect children's skin. Do not overdo it with powder, it clogs pores, which can cause breakouts. A very dark lipstick looks rough on a delicate child's face, it is better to use a delicate gloss or light lipstick of light shades. Paint your eyes thoughtfully. Do not draw bright, dark arrows on the eyelids of a child. Children's makeup will look vulgar. Only if you are doing stage make-up, then it will be appropriate.
PHOTOSESSION
If your child is going to have a photo session, then children's makeup will be necessary. The flash of the camera is ruthless, it sees even small errors on the skin, so a foundation is needed. For children's skin, it should be very light. Preferably water based. Choose a light color, you can slightly with a pink tint, so the face will look natural.
If your girl has already stepped into adolescence, and pimples have appeared on her skin, then use camouflage. You can apply a corrector or a medical concealer to the pimple pointwise; it is sold in any pharmacy.
To bring freshness to children's makeup, lightly run blush over the cheekbones. Color choose a delicate shade that matches the skin of the child. Avoid abrupt transitions, shade the blush well with a soft brush.
Eyes should not be very catchy, otherwise your girl will look like a woman in the photo. You can lightly apply light shadows on the eyelids, this gives the look an openness. Take dark brown or dark gray mascara, then the eyes will appear natural. Use black mascara only if your girl is dark-skinned with dark hair.
Drawing eyebrows on a child is bad form, it will look strangely unnatural. Lightly tint your lips with a light pink gloss. Finally, with a light brush movement, apply a thin layer of powder to your face. It is better to use loose powder. Everything, children's makeup for a photo shoot is ready.
Beware of making a child older than his years, because this tender age passes so quickly. Makeup should only emphasize the childish charm. 
If your child is involved in a drama club or dancing, then performing on stage is always a holiday. Bright costumes, beautiful hairstyles, as well as children's makeup, all this is very appropriate for this occasion. Here you can roam your fantasies. Only it should be controlled!
Make-up, firstly, must match the children's costume, and secondly, the image or role. You should not paint the face very colorfully, but highlighting the eyes and lips is simply necessary, otherwise your child will look faded from the stage. We make children's makeup bright, but not vulgar.
First of all, select the eyes. Here it is permissible to use black eyeliner and dark shadows. They will make the look expressive, it will look good from the stage. Mascara take black or dark brown. We apply blush on the cheekbones. Only they should not be a bright spot on the face. Blend them well with a brush to get a smooth transition.
The final step is the lips. Do not make them dark, but the color must be bright and rich. You can use a bright lip gloss. We apply loose powder on the face with a soft brush and the children's makeup for the stage is ready.
Now every children's holiday and birthday does not pass without the girl not wanting to make up herself. Firstly, she wants to become an adult as soon as possible, and secondly, it seems to her that it is beautiful and solemn. But children's makeup loves moderation. So do not succumb to the persuasion of your princess to make her bright and catchy, say that she is very beautiful without paint, and you will only slightly emphasize her natural charm.
Children's make-up for the holiday is easy to do. No need to use tonal means, in this case it is superfluous. Only if there are pimples on the skin, then it is possible to mask them pointwise. Give your cheeks a slight rosy look. This will refresh your face. Choose a soft color and blend well with a brush. For eyelids, choose shadows of warm and light colors. You can apply slightly pearlescent peach or beige shades. Use brown mascara and apply just a little on the lashes. Lipstick on children's lips looks rough, choose a better gloss. You can let your child choose the color. It should be very gentle, and not conspicuous, to everyone and everyone. It’s bad when he diverts attention to himself, because the main thing is the child himself.
Recently, children's makeup made with aqua paints has become very popular, it can rather be called drawings on the face. It looks very impressive, especially kids like it. But without experience and skill, you are unlikely to be able to make such a drawing yourself. Therefore, it is better to contact a professional.
Go to meet your child, give him baby makeup, if he really asks. Let our tips help you with this. Although the baby face does not need makeup, it is so beautiful in its freshness and tenderness.
When adult women put on make-up, it is customary, understandable and natural. But sometimes children's make-up for girls is also necessary. There are not many such situations, but it is better to be prepared for them in advance. Therefore, today we will talk about children's makeup.
Little girls regularly steal makeup from their mom or older sister to try it out on the sly. This is normal, so they try on not themselves the role of an adult woman. But to imagine that this young and tender creature will impose it every day is quite difficult.
First, it is harmful. Delicate children's skin is not adapted to such loads. In the future, this can cause a lot of cosmetic problems. Second, it's vulgar. No explanation is required here.
But in some cases, makeup for little girls is still acceptable. Here are some similar cases:
- PHOTOSESSION. Even children's skin may not be ideal when viewed with a professional camera. To eliminate small cosmetic defects, light makeup will help.
- Holidays. Children's makeup for the New Year, Birthday, Halloween and other holidays is quite acceptable. These can be bright fantasy patterns applied with special cosmetics - face painting.
- Speeches. The only time when you might need bright baby makeup for girls is on stage performances. If a child is involved in dancing, singing, circus arts or some kind of sports, it will have to be mastered. Otherwise, from the stage, the face will look like a white spot, especially against the background of bright costumes.
In other cases, children's makeup is unnecessary and even dangerous.
Makeup for a photo shoot
Today, professional photo shoots have become available not only to stars, but to everyone who wants to capture the brightest moments of life. And children participate in them at least as often as adults, because this tender age is so fleeting that parents want to leave as many memories of it as possible. If you don’t know how to do makeup for children correctly and beautifully, it’s better to consult a makeup artist or order work for him. But if you have the time and desire to experiment, then you can turn this into an exciting game that will give pleasure to both you and the baby.
Preparing for a photo session depends on age. For very young girls under the age of 6-7 years, no preparation is required, from 8 to 12 minimal intervention may be needed:
- Tone. You will need the softest and lightest water-based foundation available. With very light movements, it must be applied to previously cleansed skin. Now take a little powder on the brush, knock down the main part and walk over the face. If there are any flaws, you can pre-hide them with a corrector. On the apples of your cheeks, you can apply a drop of pale pink blush.
- You don't need to dye your lashes, but to fluff and shape them, you can go over them with a clear lash gel. Eyebrows are enough to comb with a brush.
- Lips can be slightly tinted with a transparent gloss. It is important not to make them glassy, but only to revive them a little.
Nothing else is required. Children's makeup for a photo shoot should only emphasize the freshness of the face.
For older girls, you can use a more substantial set of cosmetics, including brown or dark gray mascara, light shadows, light lipstick. Particular attention should be paid to the tone of the face, because at this age cosmetic defects appear associated with hormonal changes in the body.

Face art
Festive makeup can be significantly brighter. Cosmetics of a completely different type are used for this. The so-called face painting is safe for their skin, but has rich colors and dense texture. It is washed off with ordinary warm water, leaving no trace behind.
With it, you can draw a bright mask that complements the image, create bright patterns. If you do not know how to make children's makeup using face painting, then it is better to seek help from a professional. Many people now offer such services.
On the other hand, you can purchase a set in advance and practice. Children are very fond of face painting, which allows them to turn into a princess, fairy, cat, tiger, pirate, superhero and any other character.
The main thing is not to skimp on quality. There are cheap paints, gouache diluted with water, but they can be potentially dangerous for a child's skin.
Mothers of daughters sooner or later face the topic of makeup related to their daughters. The average age of girls' interest in cosmetics varies from 9 to 14 years old, this is due to the fact that with the onset of adolescence, criticism of their appearance increases and there is a desire to improve it.
But there are situations when parents have to be interested in makeup for girls even earlier, most often this interest is associated with the hobbies of their child, and simply with the desire to distinguish their child against the background of other children on significant days and holidays. Therefore, every mother is simply obliged to familiarize herself with the range of children's cosmetics, types of makeup and makeup techniques.
What is makeup for girls
The difference between a children's make-up and an adult is that girls are not painted every day, but only for a significant event. Children's makeup for girls is applied only on special occasions to emphasize natural beauty, to give the image brightness and uniqueness.
Cosmetic products used in the application of makeup must be hypoallergenic and preferably produced specifically for children. Currently, the beauty industry has a separate area - children's cosmetics, which is aimed at protecting children's skin during make-up.
Do not forget and take into account the structure of children's skin, which is much thinner and less protected than an adult, so even children's makeup products should be chosen and applied very carefully.
Why do you need
It's no secret that any girl dreams of being like her mother, older sister or her idol.
But due to its age, makeup should be used only in certain cases, such as:
- children's holidays: birthday, matinees in kindergarten or holidays at school;
- a photo session with a uniquely selected image for a girl;
- themed holidays: Christmas or Halloween;
- performances on stage or at competitions, to create a vivid image that can be seen from the stage.
And do not forget that children's make-up is created only in order to highlight your child.
Product selection
Children's cosmetics differ from the usual ones in that they are not used to correct the appearance, but to emphasize the natural beauty of the girl.
On the shelves of stores, you can simply choose children's cosmetics designed specifically for the delicate and sensitive thin skin of a child or water-based cosmetics with a natural composition: without alcohol, chemical components and various preservatives that can harm children's skin. Parents should definitely pay attention to the presence of hormones of plant or animal origin, as well as exotic components that are unacceptable to use on children's skin.
For a themed make-up, you should use face painting, which is completely water-based and contains only natural ingredients.
When buying cosmetics for girls, you should definitely pay attention to the expiration date, since expired products can seriously damage children's skin, you should study cosmetics companies.
Buying cosmetics should definitely be done in trusted stores in order to avoid counterfeiting.
Creation technique
How to do children's makeup depends on the future event, as well as the age of the child, for a five-year-old girl, makeup used to create a teenage look will never work. Let's take a closer look.
PHOTOSESSION
This makeup for children depends on the style and image previously chosen for the girl.
Natural look - when the makeup artist lightly powders the girl's face and applies light shadows on the moving eyelid, thereby emphasizing the depth and color of the child's eye
Puppet style is also popular for creating a souvenir photo. For a doll look, you will need a wider range of cosmetic products, such as: powder, light shadows, mascara and brown pencil, in rare cases, corrector. The first thing to do is to even out the girl's skin color and remove excess shine, then apply light shadows on the moving eyelid, creating an ambre effect from light to darker, highlight the lash line with a pencil and paint the lashes with mascara. A transparent gloss or light bed lipstick should be applied to the lips.
Children's holiday
Makeup should be applied depending on the place of celebration and the age of the girl. For example, for a matinee for the image of the Snow Maiden, you should choose lighter cosmetics and emphasize only with eye shadows without applying mascara, because the girl's age is still so small that extra makeup will only make the image heavier.
For the school image of the Snow Maiden, you can use both mascara and lipstick
Every little girl on her birthday wants to be bright, standing out against the background of her friends, in visage it is worth using as mascara of a natural shade, powder, shadows and preferably transparent lip gloss or hygienic lipstick. You should not use lipstick with a shade, as a child, having played too much, can smear it and look untidy.
Themed makeup
The technique of applying a thematic visage directly depends on the festive event. At Christmas, when a child goes to a carriage, a bright and festive face painting should be applied, following the traditions of the holiday. On Halloween, use darker shades of makeup to create a scary and gloomy look.
Before applying face painting, it is imperative to protect the skin and apply a baby nourishing cream, and only after that we apply the makeup itself
For the stage
To create a stage image of little girls, a make-up is used, which makes the image brighter and more noticeable from the stage.
Depending on the theme of the performance, they apply the visage itself. For girls involved in ballroom dancing, the technique of highlighting the eyes and lips is used, both with the help of cosmetics and with the help of face painting.
Face painting is used for sports competitions so that the image is more resistant to unpredictable events during the performance. A mixed technique of children's cosmetics and makeup should be applied to the stage.
For the safety of facial skin in makeup, you should use both children's cosmetics and face painting.
To create a stage make-up, bright colors are used that are not used in ordinary makeup.
Color spectrum
In make-up for girls, light shades are most often used, with the exception of the stage image. The first thing to do before a make-up is to take into account the type of girl, which is most often determined by eye color:
- for brown eyes, you should use a beautiful beige shade of light shadows or pink-purple;
- for blue eyes, use light blue shades or a pink palette;
- for green eyes, a green palette of light shades or purple is suitable.
The common thing in the make-up is that the mascara should be used in a more natural shade, brown. On the lips we apply gloss or hygienic lipstick or lipstick in a pink pastel shade.
Games with girls
Girls most often love everything related to personal care and makeup, based on this principle, games were created that can be played both virtually and visually using a puppet mannequin or coloring books. Both in the first and in the second case, the child himself can choose a hairstyle and makeup for his ward.
These games teach and develop the child's imagination to create different images and styles. Become an expert in both hair and make-up, which will surely help in the future.
Every mother, of course, wants her daughter to be the most beautiful and bright at any holiday, but it is always worth remembering that natural beauty looks better against the background of others. And do not forget that you should not make the girl's makeup heavier, using a huge amount of cosmetics, creating in her the image of an adult woman with a child's body.
