But fans were quick to notice the young girl’s eye makeup and lipstick.
Leah, lay off the makeup on these girls. They’re little kids. For heaven’s sake, let them keep their innocence and just be kids for a change

Messer was not having it though, and clapped back, saying her daughter is just having innocent fun around the house.
