Keeping up with Kim Kardashian can be a hard thing to do. This socialite always puts her best face forward. Kim has confessed that she loves makeup and rarely leaves home without eyeliner. Kim Kardashian is often seen sporting a smoky eye and long, full eyelashes. Kim plays up her beautiful eyes by keeping a soft lip, a look you can copy for yourself.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Create the smoky eye effect with darker eye shadows. Kim outlines the eyelid with shadow and an eyeshadow sponge. Shade the entire eyelid and blend up and out with a clean eyeshadow brush to create the smoky effect. Apply another layer of shadow to the lower and upper lid and blend out to the rest of the eye. Line the tops and bottoms of eyelids with black eyeliner. Curl lashes and apply mascara.

2. Accentuate the smoky eye with a nude lip. Kim Kardashian's favorite is Nars lip gloss in Turkish Delight. Apply a foundation to even your skin and top with bronzer. Kim sometimes wears blush to define her cheek bones, so try a pink blush. Kim wears fake eyelashes to make eyes more dramatic. Try Shu Uemura false eyelashes to add length.

3. Fill your makeup bag with some of Kim Kardashian's favorite makeup must-haves. Kim once said, "In my makeup bag, I always have MAC blush in Pink Swoon, along with their travel-size blush brush. A MAC lip liner in Stripdown with MAC lipstick in Angel. And Nars lip gloss in Turkish Delight".
