This review is from: Crystal Tattoos and Jewlery Craft Kit (Toy)
The crystal tattoos are very difficult to apply. The adhesive tape is so strong and the crystals so small that we couldn't get the crystals to stick to my child's skin while pulling off the tape. I had to use a butter knife to gently hold each crystal down as I pulled the tape away. Even after that, the crystals were so small that the adhesive on them wasn't very strong and they fell off her skin rather quickly. The jewelry part of this kit is probably better for children toward the upper range of the intended age target, provided they are very patient. The product says ages 6 to 12 but both my nearly 6 yr. old and 11 yr. old daughters had a great deal of trouble threading the beads onto the gold thread. The thread is stretchy material with a shiny fine gold thread wrapped around it. The gold part kept separating from the stretchy part making it really difficult to pull through the hole in the bead. I had trouble too until I realized I had to snip the very edge of the thread after each bead. Just working it through one hole caused it to fray. I thought about adding a drop of glue to hold the threads together but I was worried about getting it threaded to the clasp. The holes on the plastic clasps were smaller than the holes in the beads.

This is great but some of the beads were broken and they don't come in many colours. However the tattoos are brilliant and this was the first time I had chrystal tattoos! They work fine The storge tray is really glam and great! But I warn you threr might be some broken beads. But other than that cool and wow!

Well, it is good but the crystal tattoos, I tried to get them on my skin and not all of the pieces got on to my skin. I think this is for ages 7-10. I got this when I was turning 8. I think a 4-year old would REALLY enjoy the beads, maybe the crystal tattoos.
