Some followers praised Kim for her cute daughter, posting messages such as 'She's adorable and looks like mommy in this pic' and 'She's so beautiful'.

But many others expressed their concerns at why the Keeping up with the Kardashians star was putting such drastic make-up on a three-year-old child, with one even branding Kim's parenting choice as 'disgusting'.

One Instagram user left a sarcastic message, slamming Kim for seeming to teach her daughter the importance of 'looks' at such a young age. They said, 'Awesome! Learn your 4year old to put makeup on, to pose and to do her hair. Cause that's what life is about: Looks! 👏 ' and another agreed, 'It's not cute, it's disgusting'.

Another social media user slammed the mum-of-two for not setting a good example for her daughter, 'Why does a little girl have dark lipstick on 😒😑 or make up period....not a good example'.

Further comments from fans revealed that most were worried that North was growing up too quickly, with one user asking Kim to let the three year old 'act her age'.

'Do this child have lip stick on she is growing up to fast she is a beautiful little girl not a woman yet just because you have the money don't mean you have to do it.'

'Wow a bit young for all the make up. What's the rush. Geez let her act her age'
