When does telling your daughter "Your Pretty" become too much?

My God daughters ( 8 and 4 years old ) both happens to be gorgeous.. BUT..... it has become a bit of a problem recently. Long hours in the mirror, obsessed with what makes them look the prettiest. We want to compliment them and encourage them to builds self esteem, BUT self esteem can create a bridge to cockiness. When is flattery damaging and no longer positive reinforcement?
