**I received the products mentioned below to facilitate my review. All opinions, however, are 100% my own!
Like any other kid, my daughter loves to pretend play and to dress up as a fairy, a princess and sometimes as a mom. When pretending to be a mom, she also asks for makeup, as she needs to “make herself pretty”.
I use really few cosmetics and apply makeup mostly for special occasions, but Sofia knows that moms use creams and powders to make themselves beautiful, so she also wants to try the products moms use.
Sometimes I let her use my creams and a couple of days ago we had a really great time applying green facial masks and playing that we are Shrek & Fiona. Well, I just applied the mask for her nose, as she has really delicate and atopic skin and I know that products meant for adults are not always suitable for children. Even the play make up we have bought has such a long list of unknown (to me) ingredients that it seems not safe for children’s skin.

We were sent Autumn Princess Gift Bag and Natural Play Makeup Sticks for review. When we opened the package, Sofia squealed with joy. She couldn’t believe that all this pretty makeup was for her and wanted to try it out instantly.
When Sofia started to try out her cosmetics, I spent a little time reading the information on the gift bag and found out that Coconut oil, Cocoa butter, beeswax, vitamin E, Grapefruit Seed extract, Chamomile extract, orange peel oil are just some of the amazing ingredients Miss Kate is using in their products.
Autumn Princess Gift Bag
The products come in a really cute gift bag and include 3 eye shadows, flavored lip balm (we got strawberry), makeup stick, eyeshadow applicator and a makeup sponge.
The eyeshadows come in small 1g containers. I know it seems so little, but we have had several accidents already and some of the powder has been spilled all over the floor and guess what, the container is still almost full. So I can say that little goes a long way and you really have to use a small amount of eyeshadow to get a beautiful result.
The eyeshadows can be used dry or wet depending on the result you are looking for. When applying to eyelids, face or cheeks use it dry. For face painting, dip the applicator or the sponge in water, squeeze out the excess and mix the powder, then create the desired look on your kid’s face.
The strawberry lip balm smells really delicious and thanks to its clear finish it’s almost unnoticeable and suitable even for school or kindergarten. It leaves your lips moisturized, soft and with a little bit of shine. How do I know it leaves your lips soft? I used it on my lips too and really like the result.
The set also includes a makeup stick. We got a purple one. These makeup sticks can be used on lips, eyelids, and cheeks. The color is subtle and leaves a shimmery result.
Natural Play Makeup Sticks
The gift satchel includes 5 play makeup sticks – yellow, orange, green, pink and purple. These sticks are vegan and made with a blend of different natural oils and butter including Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Meadowfoam Seed Oil and Candelilla Wax among others. To get the beautiful color, natural vegetable dyes and crushed minerals are used.
Thanks to its buttery consistency it’s easy to use and leaves the skin super soft. As I mentioned before, these sticks can be used on lips, eyelids, and cheeks.
The things we really love about Miss Kate:
- 100% natural
- products come beautifully packed
- easy to use
- give hours of play fun
- the lip balms smell really delicious
- a little goes a long way
- really easy to clean up
- great customer service

That sounds like a wonderful line for young ladies. I want to get some for my nieces for Christmas this year.
I love this! When my daughter was a little younger, we tried to find some appropriate cosmetics for her that weren’t outrageous or outrageously overpriced. We couldn’t find anything! But these look perfect. Thanks!
All little girls love to play with Mom’s cosmetics but our stuff may not be all that good for those little faces. I am happy to hear that this came out just for the little girls who want to be just like Mommy.
I wish I had known about these earlier! My daughters were always getting into mom’s makeup – would be neat for them to have their own.
This is such a great product idea. So many girls love to play with makeup but it is always a challenge to find something safe for them. Wish I had girls!
That’s so adorable. My twins love using my make-up too. So I bought them their own lippies to play with and they love it!
These are so cool. My daughter would have had a blast trying out some looks with this safe makeup.
I love the ingredients in these products! And your kiddo is SO sweet!
The girls would fall in love with these instantly! They are at the stage of playing pretend and stuff like that. Make-up is most of the time involved.
These are so sweet! I have been wanting to get something like this for my toddler! Such a cool stocking stuffer idea!
I know the perfect princess to get this for too. 🙂 My granddaughter would love it.
I’ve never heard of Miss Kate. I know my daughters would love the little princess line.
I’ve never heard of this brand before. This is good to know for my daughter as she gets older. I hope to teach her about makeup the right way.
I would have loved these when I was a little girl. I always enjoyed putting on makeup and dressing up.
That’s a really cute make up kit. I never heard of the company before until now. I will definitely think about getting this for my niece for Christmas.
I know of one little girl in our family who’d love to have this! I’m glad that there are no harmful ingredients in it and is safe for a child’s use. Seriously considering getting this for a Christmas present for my niece.
She looks like she’s having so much fun – what a beautiful little princess! My nieces will flip over this! Thank you for the great gift idea!
My niece likes to play around with her moms chapstick. This would be perfect to introduce to her.
What great product for kids. My daughter would love these!
