All natural make-up from Whoops Bunny
January 9th, 2010
Every Friday my daughter is allowed to bring a toy from home to her pre-school. In the afternoon, the kids can share their special toys and games with their classmates.
Such a nice initiative, I thought, and so I’ve been suggesting that my daughter bring puzzles, simple board games and other easy-to-share and educational toys. My daughter, however, has been coming home super excited about the make-up her little friends brought from home to share. Alas! Make-up? First, is she sixteen yet? (No, only four.) Second, aren’t these make-up kits for kids filled with nasty chemicals and artificial colouring? (I’m pretty sure they are!)
Recently I came across the Whoops Bunny all-natural make-up sticks. Problem solved! The sticks come in five colours and look cute with the little bunnies on them. The colours are bright but translucent, so the whole thing looks extremely innocent when applied and doesn’t remind me of grown-up make-up at all.
My daughter was extremely pleased with them — they’re even better than the real thing!
Best of all, the make-up sticks are made from 100% natural ingredients like beeswax, coconut oil, grape-seed oil, pineapple extract, raspberry extract, etc., and all the packaging is bio-degradable. I even must admit that I’ve been stealing my daughter’s make-up… They make fantastic chapsticks!

oh these are just TOO cute and age appropriate. my daughter isn’t at the makeup stage (yet) but this seems like such a great idea for when the time comes!

looks fantastic! My girls are VERY into lip gloss all of a sudden. I usually just got to Target here and buy them a bunch of chapsticks to play with (destroy) but I am always fearful about what’s really in the stuff. Thanks for this…

Funnily enough, my son, who is using chapstick at the moment, announced yesterday that two of his friends at his (Amsterdam) pre-school also have “lippenstick”…
I was wondering about it and am glad that we are not alone. I had feared that it was because of where we live (it seems as if there is no-one here who leaves the house without a full face of make-up and a serious blow-dry).
