Sweet Face with Kim Kardashian




Kim Kardashian is the face of Famous Cupcakes, I created a sweet pretty look on her for their advertising campaign. Famous Cupcakes is a brand new company that will be famous for their tasty treats made with wholesome and natural ingredients. After the shoot we all got to take home a box of their cupcakes, and believe me they were yummy!




I know a lot of you have been waiting a long time for me to blog on this look but with me timing is everything and I wanted to find just the right moment that would really display this look as it should be. Since April is the month of “Pretty” Kim’s Famous Cupcake look is right on trend. The makeup look was dreamy pastels, and flirty lashes, a modern day Barbie. I love this look on Kim, a porcelain complexion with hints of ribbon pink and white pearl, it’s delicate and feminine. I wanted her to look girly, womanly, and a bit avant-garde. The day of the shoot Kim was clad in delicate chiffons, lace and feathers, and appears deliciously and unashamedly frivolous, perfect for a high fashion cupcake campaign, like Famous Cupcakes.



I first prepared Kim’s skin with a light moisturizer, my favorite primer/highlighter, and blended a touch of concealer under her eyes and over her mouth to prepare her for my pastel palette. I evened out Kim’s complexion with a liquid foundation and set with a loose powder, this look is about matte complexion. By buffing pale cheek colors in nude, pale pink, peach, and white I gave Kim’s complexion the look of sheer flawlessness. I started by defining her eyebrows with a soft neutral brown and blended matte white to the arch of the brow and the inner eyelids and contoured Kims face and eyes with the same rose pink powder blush. I then defined her eye crease with a light neutral brown. I applied several individual lashes on top of a fake strip lash and lined her eye with a black liquid liner, always be sure to curl and coat your lashes before applying any fake lashes. I used a flesh tone pencil on the inside of Kim’s eyes to brighten them, a white pencil can tend to look too artificial, a pale flesh tone works better. For Kim’s soft pastel lip color I lined her lips and filled them in with a pale pink lipstick.
