Whatever you think about Kim Kardashian, most women agree that her fashion, hair and makeup are stunning. And if you're like me, if Kim Kardashian raves about one of her favorite beauty products-you go out and try it. There are not many celebrities who are as open about sharing their favorite products (and as many) as Kim Kardashian. So I searched the internet and tried to put together the most organized list of products Kim (not necessarily her many makeup artist) favors. Since she usually has her makeup done by makeup artists and makeup artist use a lot of different products, she's used a lot of different products in her lifetime and is probably an expert by now and what looks and works best on her.

Anastasia last week and wow, do I love my brows!!! She is the queen of eyebrows! When I went to her salon I discovered this new
Lash Lifting Mascara that is incredible! I swear, I literally need one coat and my eyelashes have so much volume and curl. Usually I feel like I have to keep applying coats to build up volume, but this mascara is perfect!!! It has hard waxes and synthetic polymers in that help build lashes to give volume."

Kiehl's Anti-Oxidant Skin Preserver "This face cream saved my life! It's called
Anti-Oxidant Skin Preserver and it's by
Kiehl's. It is the only thing that calmed down my sunburn and healed my skin! I am so thankful for this product. It's very heavy and greasy but that's exactly what dry skin needs. It's thick like Vaseline, but its so nourishing for the skin. Having this sunburn was the biggest wake up call for me. I realized how damaging sun is and how important it is to take care of your skin. I'm going to use this moisturizer every night! I'm also on the search for the perfect facial sunblock, so I will keep u posted!"

"Many of you have left comments on the site asking how I achieve my full, curly hair look...Part of what I do is use
Curly Sexy Hair 24/7 Curls: It's an instant-set curling spray that protects from the heat of curling irons and locks in shine. It has memory that creates long lasting curls. Here's how you use it: You section your dry hair then you spray it on evenly over each section before you use the curling iron. It really helps in protecting your hair but makes the curls last all day! I never just curl my hair without any product or it will fall so fast."
January 2009
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer "It's definitely hard to keep up your makeup all day. I touch up throughout the day. Using a primer always helps keep the foundation fresh. I use Smashbox primer. I keep a translucent powder with me in my purse and put it on with a blush brush to get rid of the foundation getting oily."
M.A.C Paint Pot in Painterly "In order to keep your eyeshadow on all day, apply a MAC paint to the lid then apply shadow on top! The key to fresh makeup is just bringing the essentials with you to touch up throughout the day!"
"I use
Hot Tools curling irons. They have a bunch of different sizes. If you want smaller, tighter curls, go with a smaller iron. If you want bigger, sexy curls, go with a larger one! Since your hair is so long, I'd suggest you use their
2-inch model for bigger waves! Happy hairstyling!"
"I love this
Smashbox foundation primer called Photo Finish. Some make up artists don't believe in primers. They think your natural oils should shine through. However, when I do my make up myself, I find it really helpful and it makes the foundation glide on really easily and flawlessly."
L'Oreal Professionnel TextureLine Infinum Hairspray #2 Regular Hold. She says that it's her favorite, right now. "It definitely gives great hold but is extremely light. I'm using #2, which is the regular hold."
M.A.C Powder Blush in Pink Swoon "I love
MAC 'Pink Swoon' blush. I think it is the perfect pink blush to add some color to the apple of your cheeks! A pink blush adds life and somehow gives this girly fresh look. You just look alive when you add blush. I always keep a blush in my purse at all times. 'pink swoon' is the perfect pink."
Smashbox Bronze Lights in Suntan Matte. "I love this bronzer and use it all over my face and my cheekbones to give me definition but also color. It's by
Smashbox and it's called Bronze Lights. I get it in the
Suntan Matte shade. I think it's important to have a great matte bronzer that doesn't have shimmer in it because sometimes shimmer can make you look oily. I use a smaller brush to contour my cheekbones and then use a bigger powder brush to give me a little color on my forehead and nose."
Maybelline New York Great Lash Mascara "I have tried so many different mascaras and often switch, but right now I am in New Orleans and stopped off at a drug store and bought
Maybelline's Great Lash and love it! It's all about layering: First I apply one coat then add 2 more. I like volume! This mascara is very affordable and works great!"
Stila Kajal Eye Liner in OnyxNovember 2008

October 2008
M.A.C Lipliner in Soar and
M.A.C Lipstick in Myth "Well I used to wear the color
Angel, with
Stripdown lip liner, but now I am loving
Soar lip liner with a clear gloss.
Soar is like a light cranberry color, that looks almost like a darker version of
angel. I am still trying to find the perfect lipstick. I also like the color
Myth for a super nude lip, but sometimes its too light! I really went to
Mac to get a new concealer. It seems I can never find the right one, but bought the
Studio Tech creamy foundation to try as a concealer bc its way to heavy for a concealer for me!"
July 2008
M.A.C No. 35 Lash "They are
Mac No. 35. I am loving them! I do not wear fake lashes daily, but they are great for photo shoots, special events and tv stuff! When I answered questions before about fake lashes, I mentioned I wore a company called
Red Cherry, which I still love, but these new
MAC ones I really am into!"
LORAC Glam Rocks Pigment Shadow in Metallic Pearl and
LORAC Perfectly Lit Powder in Spotlight. "I am sooo loving
Lorac makeup right now! I recently tried their new
glam rocks pigment shadow in their color called "metallic pearl." I used the
Mac Black Zoom mascara which I love! And then I added this
Lorac perfectly lit powder called “spotlight!” It gives you a shimmer all over! I love it!"
Ionic Flat Irons and Curling Irons. "Hey, Curly Q! My hair is bone straight, but I can pass along some useful information: If you can get an
ionic straightener, that may help your hair a lot to flat iron the curls out. They say the
ionic straighteners and curlers are the best!"
June 2008
M.A.C Pressed Powder in NC45. "I love
MAC bronzers! I try to use a darker pressed powder like
NC45, instead of bronzers with shimmer, because it tends to look to shiny sometimes."
Aida Thibiant Skin Care. To keep her skin and oil glands acting right, Kim visits her
dermatologist, Dr. Ava Shamban, for medical facials. She also frequents
Aida Thibiant in Beverly Hills. As for hair removal, Kim has kissed her waxing days goodbye. She much prefers lasers. "I started at the
American Laser Center, but
Laser Away has numbing cream. I can be such a baby about that stuff!"
Rivitalash. "No, I do not wear eyelash extensions, Ruby. But I just started using an eyelash grower called
Revitalash. It's amazing! It makes your eyelashes grow soooo much!"
M.A.C Eyeshadow in Walnut and
M.A.C Eyebrow Pencil in Lingering. "I use a
MAC brown eyeshadow to fill them (her eyebrows) in a little bit. It’s called
walnut. It works really well for me. If I need to fill in some more, I use the
MAC eyebrow pencil called lingering."
Micheal by Michael Kors "I usually stick to the same
scent -- my all time every day scent is
Michael by Michael Kors."
April 2008
Kim washes her face, applies moisturizer, then applies
Intuit Beauty Photo Shoot makeup primer. To conceal imperfections, Kim uses
Cle De Peau Concealer Stick in Ocre or
MAC Studio Finish SPF 35 Concealer in NW25 if she runs out of Cle de Peau. After Kim puts the concealer on, she applies
Make Up For Ever HD Liquid Foundation – she mixes one pump of No. 5 and two pumps of No. 4 (she uses No. 3 for the winter months, when she’s paler). To blend and apply the foundation for a seamless finish, Kim uses
MAC Brush 180. Since she hates dark circles, after the foundation, she puts on a
little more concealer just under her eyes. For this step, Kim prefers
MAC Select Moisturecover Concealer in NW30. To set the foundation, Kim lightly applies
MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder in NC 30 with a brush. Then to tan it up, she lightly brushes on
MAC Select/Sheer Powder in NW 45. Kim is “obsessed with blush” and uses
MAC Powder Blush in Gingerly. She also mentions her
new love for cream blush, saying that it "works a lot better and lasts a lost longer." Now, time for the eyes - Kim’s favorite part. First, Kim applies
MAC Paint Pot in Painterly to the entire lid, using her fingers; this prevents powder eye shadow from creasing. If she going for a
black smoky look, she uses
MAC Eye Shadow in Carbon. If she wants a
gray smoky eye, she uses
Knight Divine or Print. For a
brown smoky eye, Kim likes
Embark. For a
fresh, shimmery eye, she chooses
MAC Pigment in Tan. Kim also does bright eye colors, and loves
vivid shadows from Make Up For Ever. "I don't think anyone does pigment colors better than them," she says. Kim always uses black pencil eyeliner. Her favorite is
Stila Kajal Eye Liner in Onyx. Kim applies
Lancome Hypnose Mascara, then layers on
MAC Zoom Lash on top. She always uses a
separator brush to prevent clumps. Kim lightly lines lips with
MAC Lip Pencil Stripdown then swipes on
MAC Lipstick in Angel and applies
NARS Turkish Delight Lip Gloss on top. For a very nude matte lip, she lines with
MAC Subculture Lip Pencil and tops it off with
NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Belle De Jour.
