I don't think it's fair to discuss an innocent picture in this way. Most kids play with make up these days, I did myself thirty years ago. To be honest I feel more worried about the sick comments on this photo. Make up for kids is available in most toy shops under, "creative play", and little girls love it. My daughter was allowed to play with makeup and hang beads around her neck, complete with clip on earings and bracelets. Little girls want to copy their mums, feeding their dolls, changing their dolls, pushing their dolls pushchair etc. Kids want to do many adult things hence the toys such as cooking, sweet shops etc pretending they have their own sweet shop, firemen doctors, nurses and I bet even a few here practiced their abilities as superman, batman , pc plod and such. If Kate allowed |Madeleine to put makeup on or she raided the makeup bag either way it was a comical photo that would probably have been taken to show the family what she had been up to and get the usual oohs and bless her comments. For everyone who is commenting about who took the picture, there are working cameras in toy shops for 3 year olds maybe she took it herself, and even if not I can't see the benefits of discussing an innocent photo in such a sexual manner.

Inappropriate use of photo, but not inappropriate family snap shot of Madeleine….which is how it appears to me. Many parents of little girls will have such photos, the application of make-up as part of dress-up and play is part and parcel of being a little girl.

ETA, some of the comments in the OP are plain stupid.
