Headcanon: Bruce Wayne Teaches The Batfamily Makeup, And They’re Surprisingly Good At It

Okay, hear me out... Bruce Wayne definitely taught his kids how to do makeup. And I’m not talking about contouring for a night out. I’m talking about, “What if you get a black eye or need to hide a bruise from a fight?” Because Bruce Wayne is nothing if not practical. It wasn’t some elaborate bonding experience, but in his relentless desire to prepare them for all eventualities, he covered everything.

Dick Grayson? He’s surprisingly good at it. Growing up on the circus, the guy’s already an expert at balance and finesse, so makeup for him is just another skill to add to his repertoire. Plus, the man can definitely use it to sneak in a quick glamour shot while staying hidden in plain sight.

Tim Drake? You wouldn’t expect it, but Tim has his techniques down. You think that because he's the detective, he'd be all about gadgets, right? Well, he’s meticulous, and makeup is just another precision tool to add to his arsenal—whether it’s covering up bruises from a bad jump or making sure he doesn’t have raccoon eyes from lack of sleep, Tim’s your guy.

But the real surprise is that Bruce and Jason are the true makeup masters.

Bruce Wayne is a perfectionist, and the fact that he’s had to hide his battle scars over the years means he’s learned to use makeup like a pro. He can cover a black eye, mask a bruise, or even conceal a cut from a fight, all while looking effortlessly put-together in front of Gotham’s elite. The man’s been wearing makeup to hide his pain for decades, and he’s not about to let his kids do any worse.

Jason Todd, of course, learned it the hard way. As Robin, he wanted to look fabulous while fighting crime, and sometimes, that meant he had to cover up the results of a dangerous mission with a little bit of makeup. Jason became quite the expert, practicing on everyone he could: orphan girls, League of Assassins members, Diana, Kara, you name it. If there was someone who needed a touch-up, Jason was there.

What Jason didn't expect was that he’d become the guy people went to for makeup advice. Even Diana asked him about a subtle smokey eye one time. Now, he’s the one giving tips to the family on how to cover those accidental scrapes or bruises—no one messes with Jason Todd's makeup skills.

So, when any of them get hurt? It's Bruce, Dick, Tim, or Jason who comes to the rescue with their expert-level makeup techniques, always ensuring the Batfamily’s battle scars are kept under wraps—literally.
