Excitement and Disappointment
The anticipation for Kimberly’s new makeup line in 2019 was palpable, especially after the grand Hall event in Los Angeles for Kim Kardashian’s beauty line, then known as KKW Beauty. But just as quickly as the excitement built, it all came crashing down upon my return to Italy. The website was taken down for reasons unbeknownst to me. Perhaps it was due to her impending divorce or maybe she wanted to distance herself from the West surname to avoid any issues. Regardless, the disappointment lingered as I held onto a stash of her old products that I never got the chance to use, always waiting for the website to relaunch. Alas, it never did, as it was permanently shut down.
SKKN by KIM:
Now, in a surprising turn of events, Skin by Kim has been launched a line that seems to be in perfect alignment with the beauty world as I know it. Busy as I am, I tend to gravitate towards nude and soft glam looks. I believe this type of makeup is timeless and versatile for any occasion. So today, I present to you all the goodies I managed to snag from Skin by Kim. You’ll be pleasantly surprised because I was able to get my hands on a plethora of products from pencils to lipsticks, almost all of them, except for the very light shades. And not to forget the palette, a gem from Skin by Kim. It is said to bear a striking resemblance to her sister’s palette, and indeed, they are quite similar. Some even compare it to the makeup by Mario palette. If you’re interested, I could film a comparison video featuring all three. Let me know if you’d like to see that kind of content; let’s aim for 5k likes!
Packaging and Quality
The packaging of the SKKN by KIM makeup palettes is sleek and elegant, reminiscent of a skincare line with nude tones. The previous packaging was slightly warmer, but this cooler grey tone is also appealing. However, the quality of the packaging leaves much to be desired. The palettes are made of cardboard, and the eyeshadows are all matte. Matte eyeshadows are typically less expensive to formulate, so the high prices of these palettes are perplexing, especially in the current economic climate.
Personal Experience
My personal experience with purchasing these products was a bit of a rollercoaster. I bought them on the day they were released, only to have my order canceled. Frustrated, I arranged for a friend in America to receive and send them to me, at great expense. The pencil cost $22, while the palette was $50. I ended up spending close to $400 in total. However, in my opinion, the quality of the products does not justify the high price tag. The matte eyeshadows are basic and unimpressive, leading me to question the rationale behind such exorbitant prices.
The Plastic Lipstick Dilemma
I rossetti in stick 32 raga Allora questo rossetto un rossetto di plastica quindi non lo, so non trovo, questa Experience, Luxury onestamente, Cio non pesa, tanto di plastica cio si paga semplicemente il fatto che ci sia Secondo me Kim ha costato al brand detto questo iniziamo con Il tutorial Oggi facciamo, look occhi e prepariamo la palpebra, con questo primer di fenty Beauty, che secondo me il migliore per questa tipologia di trucco per cos
The Primer Test
Andiamo a vedere proprio come si comporta l’ombretto sulla palpebra, senza, trucco, senza, inganno, ok, Questo, un primer, che fa grip; Sulla pelle rimane leggermente, sticky, quindi l’idea quella che l’ombretto Si si attacchi alla palpebra bene: Vediamo voi AV comprato, qualcosa del Brand di Kim oppure no Ma sapete una cosa potrei anche fare tipo, un contenuto, dove mettiamo, a differenza Kim e kkw beauty, Potrebbe essere, un’idea, raga Potrebbe essere un’idea.
The Eyeshadow Texture
What do you think qua dietro abbiamo? I numerini prendo il numero set per la piega palpebrale Allora la texture, delle polveri morbida, quasi vellutata vedo Fallout per comunque, la situazione pigmentata E ossida leggermente Quando tu vai, a stratificare il prodotto vedete che qua leggermente pi scuro Io credo che si veda Spero si veda Sullo schermo Im impressed impressed friends, impress myia friends, ok, Facciamo la stessa, cosa di qua
The Neutral Matte Palette
Io adoro le palette opache neutre Questa mi, sembra una palette ben calibrata, a livello di schema, Non vedo, cose strane onestamente Comunque s, queste cialde, ossidano, sul primer di fenty, Beauty, poi, Magari su tiktok vi posso far vedere altri look Che ne dite vado con il numero 11 Questo qua prima ho preso questo adesso prendo quello qua sotto vedo un Fallout importante Comunque non ho capito bene: questo colore, perch non scrive.
Makeup Tutorial Experience
The SKKN by KIM makeup tutorial starts off with applying primer, but the result is not as expected. There seems to be a significant fallout issue right from the beginning, leading to some confusion and frustration.
Palette Performance
As the tutorial progresses, the fallout continues to be a major concern. The pigmentation of the eyeshadows is there, but the fallout problem overshadows the potential of the colors. The black eyeshadow, in particular, proves to be excessively pigmented, resulting in a messy application.
Color Perception
Despite the rich pigmentation of the eyeshadows, the actual colors do not translate as expected. The black eyeshadow appears more like a dark grey, raising doubts about the compatibility of the eyeshadows with the primer used.
First Impressions
Upon first glance, the SKKN by KIM makeup tutorial seems like a promising start for beginners. The emphasis on the Ready To Go palette caught my attention, as it requires careful application of the eyeshadows. The use of the Anastasia brush is highlighted, adding a touch of uniqueness to the tutorial.
Challenges Faced
While attempting to follow the tutorial, the issue of pigment intensity came into play. It was crucial to tap off the excess product and apply it gently to avoid any fallout. The struggle became more pronounced for those with very fair skin tones, making it a bit time-consuming in achieving the desired look.
The Eyeliner Dilemma
Transitioning to the eyeliner segment, the Fenty Beauty product presented both benefits and challenges. The precision of the eyeliner tip was appreciated, but the issue of it drying out quickly posed a problem. The transformation of the black shade from application to drying was a disappointment, leaving a slightly grayish tone instead of a rich black finish.
Exploring the Makeup Tutorial
In cui io volevo stare, tranquilla serena invece, ho un sacco di cose da fare e, la cosa, mi disturba moltissimo, Ok, mascara Usiamo, questo di sed che un bel mascara cos ci aiuta un po poi andiamo, a stendere le matite Vabb allora Io oggi faccio vedere una.

SKKN by KIM Makeup Tutorial:
When it comes to makeup tutorials, the SKKN by KIM brand has been making waves in the beauty industry. Their products promise high-quality results and flawless finishes. However, I can’t help but feel a bit apprehensive about trying out their lipsticks. After seeing how one of the latest shades performed, I must admit that I am slightly perplexed. The shade in question left me feeling a bit uncertain about its overall quality.
RECENSIONE Pelle Scura:
As someone with darker skin, finding makeup products that cater to my complexion can be a challenge. When it comes to reviewing makeup specifically designed for darker skin tones, it’s important to consider factors such as pigmentation, blendability, and overall performance. However, I can’t help but feel a sense of disappointment when a product doesn’t live up to my expectations. In this case, I was left feeling a bit let down by the performance of SKKN by KIM’s lipstick in shade number three.
REVIEW ITA:
While I appreciate the effort that goes into creating makeup products for a diverse range of skin tones, I can’t help but wonder why I wasn’t sent the shade that I had requested. It’s frustrating when a product fails to meet expectations, especially when it comes to something as personal as makeup. Despite my initial excitement about trying out SKKN by KIM’s lipstick, I was left feeling a bit miffed by the mismatch between my expectations and the actual performance of the product.
The launch of Skin by Kim has surely piqued the interest of many makeup enthusiasts, including myself. The quality, the shades, and the overall vibe of the collection seem to resonate well with the current beauty trends. While the disappointment of the past still lingers, it’s refreshing to see Kim back in the game with a new and exciting venture. As I delve into these products and experiment with different looks, I can’t help but wonder what took so long? But hey, they say good things come to those who wait, and in this case, the wait seems to have been worth it. Cheers to new beginnings and fabulous makeup looks with Skin by Kim!
While the SKKN by KIM makeup palettes may have an attractive packaging design, the quality and value for money are lacking. As a beauty content creator, I expected more from these products, only to be disappointed by their mediocrity. The brand may need to reconsider their pricing strategy and product formulation if they want to appeal to a wider audience, especially in a competitive market. Ultimately, the high cost and underwhelming performance make it difficult to recommend these palettes to others.
The SKKN by KIM makeup palette may not be the most user-friendly option for those with dark skin tones. The fallout issues and the color discrepancy make it challenging to achieve the desired look, leaving room for improvement in future makeup releases.
The overall makeup look created from the tutorial left a mix of emotions. While the products used showed potential, the application process and product performance posed obstacles. The need for precise application, especially for those with fair skin, and the struggles with the eyeliner tip drying out quickly raised questions about the effectiveness of the tutorial. The journey from initial excitement to final application was indeed a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences.
