The Kim Kardashian Effect

photo neneleaksecce.png

The latest mainstream trend in makeup is contouring. This is a technique of highlighting and shading that drag queens have used for years to minimize and enhance facial features. If you don't do it right, you end up looking like Nene Leakes on WWHL a few weeks ago. Girlfriend's makeup makes her look like she has a 10 o'clock shadow.

    If, after applying make up, you look like you have a beard, you have done it wrong.

      If, after applying makeup, you look like a drag queen and you're not about to go on stage to lip sync for your life, you've done it wrong.

    I dispute the categorization of contouring as a recent mainstream trend, unless you consider the 1960s recent. Granted, I'm old, but I can actually remember stuff now & then.

      Agree. It's esp. popular amongst the Atl.reality peeps, it seems. They are all sporting the super high cheekbones and thinned out nose. It's too obvious, though.

    I an hating the fake blonde hair and he ginormous teefs. And adding a five o'clock shadow hasn't helped. Girl needs a new make up artist or has she pissed all of them off by now. Maybe it was intentional because she was being a snotty ass beyotch while it was being done. (I'll get YOU!)

    The first night I tried to contour my nose, after the dark club we went to the gas station to buy cigs. In the bright light my friend goes to me eww why do you have brown stuff all over your nose?

    She looks like Jessica Simpson after she gets back from a sunny skiing vacation, wearing her snow goggles all weekend. White girl from the top of the cheek implants to an inch below the hairline. Brown girl everywhere else. It's the exaggerated raccoon look and She looks like shit.

    I think her teeth are reflecting so much I'm having trouble focusing.

    Hollywood studio make up artists have been contouring for ages. Let's not start matching Enty with the erroneous statements please.
