My daughter (age 7) only wants palettes for XMAS...and maybe some lip stick. I love her...she watches my every move. She is actually really good at blending her eye shadow!
That is cute! Claire's has great makeup for girls that isn't too expensive but isn't total crap. Try giving her lipgloss instead of lipstick, that might work better for her!
Claire's makeup is fantastic for little girls because there's like no pigmenation on it, so it will hardly show up. I'm not sure if that was their intent but that way little girls can still play without looking like miniature women.
