Celebrity Makeup Icon: Kim Kardashian

The next person in my celebrity makeup icon series is Kim Kardashian.  Surprised? I didn't think so!

        When searched on Google, seen in the tabloids, in interviews, and on her tv show on E!, her make-up is ALWAYS flawless and spot on. Even though she's more widely known for her shapely hourglass figure, I believe Kim (in the beauty blog/vlog world at least) is more known for her smokey eyed makeup (with flawless bronzed skin and nude lips). That's probably why on Youtube, "The Kim Kardashian Smokey Eye Tutorial" is one of the most widely requested looks amongst most beauty gurus.

     Her personal style is classy mixed in with ultra sexy and sultry. This bombshell doesn't usually stray from this classic smokey look. Not many colors are seen on her lids, just shades of browns, blacks, greys, and golds. Since she has larger eyes, golden skin tone, and darker features (eyes and hair), the darker neutral eye shadows work for her, (CLEARLY!)

      I chose Kim K. for this series because I admire her classy yet sexy style. Another fashion and style leader for our generation.Even though she doesn't typically depart from her classic smokey eye look, I think she does it well enough to never have to change it up!
 

      Not only should she be admired for her style, but her general motivation and drive to be something. She's gone from the daughter of OJ's Lawyer to a very successful business woman. She owns clothing boutiques in several major cities (with her sisters), has a fragrance line, endorsement deals with QuickTrim,  a tv show with her family, and the list goes on. I don't see her stopping her business empire anytime soon and as a woman, I admire her for that!


Stay inspired lovelies,
Miss Alleigh
