We take our skin care very serious around here. In an effort to find a great face cream while protecting the animals from testing, Layla took it into her own hands to try out various products.
First she tried peas…
She was worried the green wouldn’t match her complexion so she decided to try refried beans.
The beans made her a bit gassy because she ate them while also rubbing into her skin so she moved to peanut butter. Still high in protein but no smelly side effects.
Food wasn’t making her skin as soft as she wanted so she switched things up a bit with butt paste.
The butt paste made her skin soft but had a slightly funky smell so she tried mascara.
Mascara was hard to get off so she moved onto lipgloss which was way too sticky.
I don’t think she is 100% satisfied yet but at least she has stopped using markers. They were making her smile funny.

I love it! The girl might have a career as a make-up artist. Her look with the mascara has quite the artistic flare! =)

It’s wrong that I have a vlog of me with butt paste on my face to match her, isn’t it?

No, not at all. It proves you value your skin care too.

It totally cracked him up!!! Me too, she’s still cute with stuff on her face, I don’t think I can pull that off.

It’s a good thing she is cute too or else all of these antics might get her trouble.

Very early.
This is hilarious.
My kid has tried various combinations of things. Peanut butter. Chapstick. Butt Paste.
The possiblities are endless with their sneaky fingers.

Dude. I have no idea what makes kids think to put some of these things on their faces.

Thank you! I think she is pretty cute.
Hmmm…refried beans…never thought of that as a beauty product.

I have no idea why they think some of things are good to spread on their faces.
Hilarious! Been there, done that, feel your pain…5x over! ;0)
Does it ever end?

Way to funny! I should take more pictures… my daughters have tried most of those too (except for mascara and lipstick, as I don’t use it). They do like chocolate, though…

I always snap a quick pic with my cell phone before I clean up her face.

Oh my goodness she is too funny and ADORABLE I must add as well! Such a great idea to use all of these pictures to create a post! Reminds me of a time when my oldest son got a hold of my new Clinique lipstick in the backseat of a rental car while we were on vacation! I was amazed that I was able to clean it up with a baby wipe.
Erin recently posted..Family Fun – Beach Day
I’ve been going through a lot of older pictures lately and I figured I should use them somehow.
It’s always surprising what baby wipes will clean up.

Dear god, how do you get anyhing done with her adorable face around? I think she has a bright future no matter what! I just love the pictures of her…she is such a cutie.
Kir recently posted..Wordless Wednesday: Bunny Boys Color the Eggs
It’s hard to get stuff done with her around but mostly because she is always getting into stuff.
I love her. Just love her. Maybe she can marry mine son?

I think that would be a good match although she has some other sons already in line.

Hahahaha!! Oh my goodness, those pictures. And the mascara one looks like she actually tried getting it on her lashes!
Runnermom-jen recently posted..The Cake
I’m sure she got at least some of the mascara on her lashes. It was not fun to clean up but she was pretty proud of herself.

This definitely could be a future career in dermatology. I think she’s on to something…I hear green peas are awesome for the face.
Elena recently posted..‘Tis better to have been thin and lost, than never to have been thin at all?
I’m thinking green beans might be a little better than green peas.

I loved these pics of her. She’s so freaking cute! I can totally relate. Every time my son finds a pen, marker, or crayon he takes to writing on his hands. Maybe I’ll train him to paint mommy’s nails as soon as he’s coordinated enough.
If it works out that he can paint your nails I will be completely impressed.

Oh, these pics are adorable. Thank you for the smile they put on my face.
Also, The Dude is leaning this way too: He DAILY smears food on my face, his face, his sister’s. Its wonderful, except when its not. Gerber Mac and Cheese is DISGUSTING!
Also, I think your daughter has worn more makeup this year than I have!
The mac and cheese doesn’t sound very good. Maybe he should try carrots.

What’s with kids putting butt paste on their faces?? I think they’ve all done that.

What’s funny is Kimsley has also put butt paste on her face.
