The Kontour Kween is back at it again!
Earlier today, Kim Kardashian teamed up with YouTube vlogger and makeup artist Jaclyn Hill on a "Get Ready with Me" makeup tutorial using the now-sold out
KKW Beauty Créme Contour and Highlight Kits.
The result: an
amusing-yet-informative conversation between two makeup lovers. Kim K.,
who has always relied on her world-renowned glam team and admits to her
sub-par makeup skills, and Jaclyn, who's built a loyal following based
on her personal beauty knowledge, were quite surprised by how much they
learned from each other. But, for viewers, it was all useful.

Unlike Jaclyn, Kim K. isn't a fan of primer. "I don't
really use primer." After a gasp, Jaclyn responds, "[The Sisley primer]
will make you so glowy throughout the day. It's everlasting dewyness."
Kim came to the makeup tutorial with liquid foundations from three different brands: Chanel, La Prarie and Giorgio Armani.
Dermablend is a popular brand for stage makeup. Kim uses their concealer palette, literally like a boss.
"After I do a really dry concealer, I use this Make Up
For Ever Lifting," Kim said as she applied the creamy product with a
flat concealer brush. This isn't typical, so Jaclyn clarified, "So you
do a dry, very pasty concealer and then a creamy concealer on top?"
Kim's response: "Mhm."
Make Up For Ever
Lift Concealer, $26
Before Kim starts the contouring process, she bakes her concealer. After it's properly set, she removes
most
of the powder. "I kind of keep the corner. I'm just going to blend and
brush [the powder of the outer portion of the face] off because I am
going to cream contour," she says referring to the powder near the
corner of her eye. "I don't want it to get all powdery."
Ben Nye has been around for awhile, and we were
surprised the beauty star is still using a product she swore by over a
decade ago. "Mario would die if he saw the products I had," she said.
"They're so old school."
"When I do my contour, I always mix them. You definitely
need two different shades," Kim revealed to viewers. The YouTuber
then agreed and added, "You can use the lighter side to bring in
further, and the darker side to hit it up higher."
"I always do like a three," she said, tracing her product from her hairline, down her jaw, then along her jawbone.
"I love the little tip of your nose," Kim mentioned as
she placed contour on her nose. According to the kontour kween, adding
contour underneath "makes your nose look shorter." Has this been her
secret all along?!
Kim is very proud of the applicator on her contour
stick. "I definitely wet the sponge. These sponges are removable."
However, instead of water, she uses a facial mist—pure genius!
For Kim, the brand and this makeup tutorial are about one thing: making contouring easier and more accessible.
"I
would think that everyone thinks that contour is really hard to do,"
Kim admitted after being asked about her goal for her new brand from a
Twitter follower. "I just want to show people that I'm not the best
makeup artist, but it's fun for me."
Hopefully, it's easier now!
