Love them or hate them, it's clear that the Kardashian family is super fashionable. They know how to dress, style their hair, and do their makeup. That's why you should follow these tips inspired by Kim herself:
1 Do Your Makeup before Your Hair
The style of makeup you choose to wear could influence your hairstyle. Besides, you don't want to do your hair first and end up ruining it by getting foundation in it.
Frequently asked questions
2 Use Cream Eye Shadow
This is the best type of shadow to use, because it'll stay on all day long. Plus, it's easy to apply!
***
Cream eye shadow isn't just long-lasting, it also offers a luxuriously smooth texture that can give your eyes that coveted Kardashian glow. With a variety of shades to choose from, you can create everything from a subtle shimmer to a bold statement look. Blend it with your fingertips for a soft, natural effect, or use a brush for more precise application. Don't be afraid to mix colors for a personalized touch. Plus, a little goes a long way – making it both glamorous and economical.
3 Make Sure Your Foundation Matches Your Skin Tone
If your foundation is too dark or too light, it'll make your skin look strange. You don't want your neck to look different than your face.
4 Put Foundation on Your Ears and Legs
Don't stick to using foundation on your face. Kim uses it on her ears, legs, and anywhere else that she's showing skin that day.
5 Sleep on a Satin Pillow Case
You should also make sure to change your pillowcase often. Otherwise, the buildup on it could end up causing acne.
6 Create Ombre Brows
Don't fill your brows in with the same color. Make them lighter on one side and darker on the other.
7 Apply Creams before Powders
If you're going to use both powders and creams, make sure you start with the creams. Powders work much better on top.
8 Triple Line Your Eyes
Your eyes shouldn't take you two seconds to do. You should line your eyes three different times for the best effect.
***
First, start with a smooth, light pencil to create a soft outline that defines the shape of your eye. Next, grab a liquid liner to add a more dramatic and precise line just along the lash line. Finally, for that ultimate Kim K smolder, use a gel eyeliner to really intensify the look and add depth. Remember to blend slightly for a seamless finish that really makes your eyes pop. This triple-threat technique ensures your eyes are the statement feature of your look, with the staying power for all-day allure.
9 Contour, Highlight Twice, and then Apply Your Blush
This is the order you should be following if you want to copy Kim's elaborate makeup routine. Contour your face, then highlight it, then highlight it again, then use blush.
10 Widen Eyes with Smokey Shadow
If you're unhappy with the size of your eyes, you can use your eyeshadow to make them look wider.
***
smoky eyeshadow isn't just about creating drama; it's a tool for optical illusion. Begin by blending a light shade on the inner corner of your eyes, which instantly illuminates and appears to open them up. Gradually work a darker hue towards the outer corners, using a windshield wiper motion to blend, and lightly extend beyond the lash line. Don't forget to smudge a bit of the dark shadow along your bottom lashes as well—this continuity gives the impression of a wider, more captivating gaze. Remember, blending is key for a seamless, enigmatic look.
11 Use a Beauty Blender
These should be your best friends. It's the best way to apply your foundation.
12 Moisturize Your Face before Applying Your Makeup
If your face isn't moisturized beforehand, then your makeup could end up looking cakey and flaky.
13 Keep Areas You Want to Recede Shimmer-free
Shimmery makeup will draw attention to the area you put it on. So if you don't want anyone to look at your cheeks, don't use shimmery blush.
14 Blend as Much as You Can
If you don't blend all of your makeup, then it'll be obvious that you're wearing makeup.
15 Highlight under Your Eyes, in the Center of Your Forehead, and on the Strip down Your Nose
These are the areas where you want to make your skin look lighter.
16 Contour the Line under Your Cheeks, around Your Hairline, around Your Jawline, and around Your Nose
These are the areas where you want to make your skin look darker
17 Take Selfies when You’re Finished
There's no point in doing your makeup if no one is going to see it. That's why you should take selfies as soon as you're done!
