David Beckham is a gamer when it comes to a changing father.

The former professional soccer player, 48, scored A.J picture on an Instagram on Monday in which he referred to his daughter, 12-year-old Harper Beckham, as her “little makeup artist” as she applied the products to his face.

He captioned the photo of the sweet moment: “Looks like dad needed a little bit of powder and contour.” “I’m not sure what that means, but I looked better than ever.”

Over a million “likes” later, commenters are thrilled with the photo and are encouraging teens to “mix it up like Beckham.”

This wouldn’t be the first time that a famous father-daughter moment has garnered a lot of attention and love — specifically when it involved an activity like applying beauty products, skincare, or even getting dressed. It is not surprising, experts say, that it brings so much joy to family members and spectators.

In this case, the change will certainly be more in Victoria Beckham’s wheelhouse, as the creator of her namesake beauty brand. However, Harper’s dad doesn’t seem hesitant to sit in the glam chair.

“It’s just a matter of feeling kind of subconscious and authentic while spending that moment with your child,” Borba told Yahoo. “It’s not a lecture. It’s all in the spirit of fun and togetherness.” “The very important thing is that what we say as fathers is not as important as what we do. It sends a message of joy without the father having to say anything.”

It is also important to learn about the influence that famous parents like Beckham, Dwayne Johnson, and Channing Tatum have on other parents when engaging in this kind of fun with their kids.

“Celebrity parents showing their children like this is a great example for all parents, and all parents in general, of how communicating with their children can be easy and fun for everyone,” says Fiorelli.
