Beauty on a budget! Kim Kardashian teamed up with her go-to makeup artist, Mario Dedivanovic, to film a tutorial for her kimkardashianwest.com subscribers. The Kimoji entrepreneur, 35, enlisted Dedivanovic to apply her signature glam using only budget buys. “The drugstore is such a great place to get makeup,” Kardashian wrote. “I loved hearing about Mario’s favorite affordable products.” Keep reading to get Kardashian’s cheap and chic look!
To begin, Dedivanovic smoothed L’Oreal True Match Foundation in Natural Beige W4 ($10, ulta.com) on Kardashian’s tan skin with a damp beauty blender for flawless coverage.
Using Revlon ColorStay Under Eye Concealer in Light/Medium ($10, ulta.com), he primed the reality star’s eyelids before setting them with NYX Cosmetics Studio Finishing Powder Translucent Finish ($10, ulta.com). He then proceeded to fill Kardashian’s arches with Maybelline Brow Define and Fill Duo Deep Brown ($8, ulta.com), but couldn’t let the moment pass without sending his regrets to Anastasia Soare of Anastasia Beverly Hills fame. “Sorry, Anastasia,” he said. “This is a drugstore tutorial.”

A little bit of L’Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow in Endless Pearl ($8, ulta.com) acted as highlighter. “I actually do love these eyeshadows, and I use them quite often,” he noted. “These have great pigment and they blend really easily.” A generous sweep of L’Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow in Gilded Envy ($8, ulta.com) on her lids and L’Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow in Bronzed Taupe ($7, drugstore.com) on her outer corners created a smoky eye.

Dedivanovic forgot to pick up eyeliner, so he dabbed on a bit of L’Oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow in Eternal Black ($8, ulta.com) for definition. “If ever you forget a product, or you’re missing a product, you can improvise and somehow make it work,” he said. He coated her lashes with a product that he’s “very loyal” to: L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara in Carbon Black ($8, ulta.com).
To hide her under-eye circles, he combined a peachy NYX HD Concealer in CW05 Medium ($5, ulta.com) to the darkest areas along with some Maybelline Fit Me Concealer ($4, target.com). Since the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star is constantly photographed, extra concealer is necessary. “For you girls doing it at home, you obviously don’t have to use this much,” Dedivanovic, who also works with Kate Bosworth, added.
For her signature contour, Milani XL All-Over Bronzer in Bronze Glow ($9.99, milanicosmetics.com) did the trick. Dedivanovic added a natural-looking flush with Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso ($8.49, milanicosmetics.com), and highlighted the top of her cheekbones with Physicians Formula in Bronzed Pearl ($13.99, ulta.com).
And for those signature glossy pink lips, he first lined them with Prestige Cosmetics Waterproof Lip Liner in Natural ($6, drugstore.com). He mixed two lipsticks to achieve his desired color: Maybelline Lipstick in Blushing Beige ($8, ulta.com) and NYX Simply Nude Lip Cream in Honey ($7, ulta.com). And two blended lip glosses added some shine: Circa Beauty Lustrous Shine Lip Polish in Lovely Lace ($9, walgreens.com) and in Soft Tulle ($9, walgreens.com).
