Playground comeback of the century: my dad can contour better than your dad.
[post_ads]It's a skill he likely picked up at Blushington's Dad and Daughter 101 Makeup Class. Everyone's favorite beauty lounge has added a class based around fathers teaching their daughters how to apply age-appropriate makeup, and we are so
here for this. Let's be real—girls are going to get into makeup at some
point, and with the help of a trained makeup artist, Blushington's
class aims to give tips on applying makeup that isn't too intense for
each daughter's tween-age status, while offering encouraging tips as she
embarks on her first forays into the beauty world. Skincare is a major
focus—which is apt considering it was around that age that we started
experiencing our first breakouts, which subsequently lead to our first
trips to the Clinique counter—and both father and daughter will leave
with a guideline on how to subtly conceal areas that need extra love,
apply eye makeup and lip color, and setting makeup.
"Every dad
should know this stuff before a big event because [the girls] come out
looking llike they shouldn't look," participating dad Seth Rosensweig
told the New York Post.
"You have to be involved. You don't want to be a spectator—you don't
want to sit on the sidelines." It's a great way for fathers to learn
about the nuances of makeup if no one else can speak to the method
before a big event, not to mention, get some father-daughter bonding
time in.
There are two options available—a 1-hour private class, priced at
$125, and a 1.5 hour group class for $50. Currently, Blushington has
outposts in New York, California, and Texas. Head over to blushington.com now to find a location near you, and to find out more about the Dad and Daughter 101 Makeup Class.
