Make It Real: Instant Glam Cosmetic Case - 23pcs, Camera Shaped Makeup Case, Eyes-Lips-Face-Nails, Stickers to Decorate, Girls & Kids Ages 8+

So our Little Girl really loves her makeup set. She's been trying the different makeups ever since she got it. We've ordered so many "Make it Real" brand products in the past, that we were confident that this would be of a good quality plus safe for our princess. Now, here's the funny part.... Our Daughter has NO CLUE what a Polaroid camera is. She thinks it's a cash register makeup holder. And for whatever reason, she thinks that it makes the makeup set that much cooler. Because she's never seen anything like it in stores, or when I'm skimming through stuff on Amazon on my phone and she's peeking to see if I scroll past anything eye-catching. She likes playing "store," loves playing make believe like my Wife or I are customers and buying stuff from her. So she just has a thing for any sort of toy cash register. And that's what she thinks this is. And why not, the audience of this makeup set will probably never even know what a Polaroid is. The other day I had to explain what a rotary phone was, when we spotted one on display in an old-fashioned ice cream shop. You get the idea. Is it worth getting? I think so. Our Daughter obviously loves it. I will admit, it's a little strange to me that out of all the things Make it Real choose to turn into a makeup holder, they picked a Polaroid camera. But remember, as parents we shouldn't rate stuff based on what WE think. But really, how much our kids enjoy whatever the product is. So while her talking hamster toy that repeats everything you say may drive my Wife and I crazy, it still gets five stars because our Little Girl loves it. She's happy with this makeup set, so it also gets the five stars she would give it if she could rate it herself. So it gets the thumbs up from us.

This is such a cute little "throwback" makeup set that is designed to look like a Polaroid camera. I would imagine that most little ones will have no idea what that is so Mom or Dad might have to dig out the history books to show them. ;) Inside the camera case with mirror, you get a nice assortment of kid friendly makeup - 9 eyeshadows with applicator, 1 strawberry scented lip gloss, 2 body shimmers, 2 blushes, 2 bottles of nail polish, a roll of stickers, a sheet of stickers, nail file and a cosmetic brush. If you aren't comfortable with your child wearing real makeup yet, the makeup, with the exception of the nail polish, doesn't deposit much color. They are very age appropriate. I thought it was cute that the lip gloss pot is actually stored in the "lens" of the camera! It has a sweet strawberry scent! This would make a nice gift and one that is sure to bring back some happy memories for the parents if they are old enough. :)

My girls loved this. Unfortunately there's not a lot of makeup in it. I also don't know what they did, but the makeup clumped up within a day, and was almost all gone within that week. Were they putting too much on, yes, they're 7 and 9 year old girls. But not so much that it should've been gone that quickly.

Got this for my niece's birthday, she's been begging for makeup. Gotta say, it's pretty adorable. The camera design's a hit, she loves pressing the button to pop out the tray. Stickers were a nice touch, though they ended up everywhere but the case. Makeup's decent for play - eyeshadow's sparkly, lip gloss smells like candy. Nail polish is... well, it's nail polish. Brush and applicator are okay, nothing fancy. Now, it's not pro-quality stuff. Colors are a bit chalky, doesn't last long. The shimmer gets EVERYWHERE, found it in my car days later. Lip gloss pot's cute but messy. One quirk - the case doesn't latch super well, spilled in her backpack once. And fair warning, supervise the nail polish unless you want a redecorated bedroom. Overall, it's been a fun toy for dress-up and playtime. If you've got a kid who's into makeup but you're not ready for the real deal, it could be worth a look. Just be prepared for some glittery cleanup and maybe set some ground rules about where it can be used. It's brought lots of giggles and silly selfies, so that's a win in my book.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

My daughter loves it. Comes in a compact camera looking case. She is seven and loves using it!!
