Beyoncé's Daughter Blue Ivy Carter, 8, Is Already a Better Halloween Makeup Artist Than Most of Us
Beyoncé's daughter Blue Ivy Carter is already a Billboard-charting, BET Award-winning artist at age 8. But it turns out her talents expand far beyond music: Blue is also extremely skilled with
costume makeup. Her grandmother Tina Lawson showed off Blue's work doing Halloween makeup on her.
Blue transformed her grandma into a skeleton and arguably did a better job than some adults. "My Blue is a great make up artist !" Lawson captioned the Instagram, featuring her finished face. "She made me into Grandma Skeleton !!❤️❤️"

This isn't the first time Lawson has spoken about Blue's makeup skills. In August 2019, Lawson was bragging about Blue's ability to do a perfect cat-eye at age seven.
"I've bought Blue so many makeup kits, much to her dad's dismay!" Lawson told Entertainment Tonightat BeautyCon Festival LA. "But it's just for playtime. We have fun!" Blue is "quite the makeup artist," Lawson added, noting then that yes, Blue is particularly good at eye makeup. "She puts stones and does all this fancy stuff. She can do a perfect cat eye. She's a little artist."
Beyoncé shared a photo back in 2016 of Blue playing with makeup then, so the talent makes sense: She has been getting experience for her half her life now with cosmetics.
Not a lot of detail has been given about Blue's life beyond photos her mother shares and stories her grandmother will tell. But a source spoke to Peoplelast year about Blue's personality and relationship with Beyoncé. “She is very sassy, high energy and knows what she wants,” the source said. “Especially after the twins [two-year-olds Sir and Rumi] were born, Beyoncé made sure that Blue was able to embrace her new role as a big sister. She also lets her go to video shoots, award shows and music recording. They have a very special bond!”
