“I wanted my first launch to come out with a bang‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√ë‚àö√Üsomething exciting and creative‚Äö√Ñ√∂‚àö√ë‚àö√Üand eyeshadow is just such a fun color product. Plus, I love to do dramatic eye looks. I have throughout my whole entire career. So it’s a reflection of me being able to create not only a pretty neutral eye but also having pops of color. As for the name, Life’s a Drag, I started as Manny MUA in drag. I did a makeup look for Halloween. I had such an amazing experience, and that’s kind of what kicked it off for me. Being able to be expressive with makeup was everything.’- the popular Youtuber told Glamour.

Kim Kardashian’s beauty show Glam Masters just wrapped up its first season. The winner of the reality show, Argenis Pinal won an exciting price: a collaboration with the queen of beauty herself, Kim Kardashian West. Since Kim is the producer of the show and owner of a makeup brand, it felt natural to treat the winner with a collaborative collection. Argenis and Kim released an unexpected drop of Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme Color Sticks.
The beauty mogul and the winner of the show first launched their collection at Beautycon. The event gathers all of the most influential beauty gurus and YouTube personalities in one place. Thousands of fans of these internet celebrities go to the festival, so Kim chose the right place to drop the new KKW Beauty offerings.
The KKW Beauty x Argenis Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme Color Sticks come in 5 different colors. The makeup artist named all the shades: Genis, Muyor, Dramatico, Peshosa and Comic King. Kim and Argenis developed a very “creamy and blendable” eyeshadow formula. According to the beauty mogul, the sticks can be used to ” sculpt, line, and smoke out the eyes”. What’s recognizable for Kim when she is launching new products is that there are always tutorials on how you can use them. She has already filmed tutorials with Argenis as well as Glam Master’s judge Kandee Johnson where fans can get inspired to create bold looks with the new Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme Color Sticks. In the sneak peek videos, (the full tutorials can be found on her app) Kim flaunts vampy burgundy look as well as summer-ready turquoise one.
Argenis created the burgundy monochromatic makeup look using the shade Muyor. The makeup artist and Kim explained that the sticks are very buildable and easy to use. In the second tutorial, beauty guru Kandee Johnson emphasizes the versatility of the Crème Color Sticks explaining that you could use them as a base, pair it with other bright colors or mix it with black to create a turquoise smokey eye. She uses the color, Genis, which is the most vibrant one in the KKW Beauty x Argenis collection.
Kim Kardashian’s latest beauty drop came as a surprise considering her love for neutral makeup looks. Moreover, the reality star’s collaboration with her longtime makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic included the now infamous cobalt blue eyeshadow Libra that sparked a huge spring trend. However, her collab with Glam Master’s winner Argenis Pinal is the boldest one so far. The Cr‚Äö√†√∂¬¨√Üme Color Sticks dropped this Sunday, April 21 at the Glam Master’s booth at Beautycon. They will be available online, on kkwbeauty.com starting from today, April 23. Kim also has another exciting launch up her sleeve for her fans – new KKW Fragrance is coming on April 30.

The beauty mogul started giving sneak peeks of the palette on her Instagram profile and fans of the brand already went crazy over the new product. Considering the success of Huda’s previous palette their reaction wasn’t surprising at all. Huda Beauty Rose Gold palette had one of the most amazing foiled eyeshadows and the new Desert Dusk palette will include more of them in new mesmerizing shades. The 18-shade palette will take you on an exciting Arabian journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Dubai. The palette includes warm shades that resemble the sky at sunset as well as more neutral shades of the sand. Desert Dusk Palette includes 8 creamy matte eyeshadows that guarantee a smooth application. There are six pressed pearls which are shimmery eyeshadows in rose, bronze and plum shades. Next, there are three duo-chrome toppers with insane pigmentation that offer a vibrant duo-chrome finish. Lastly, there is one pure glitter shade that’s a mix of golden, bronze and magenta glitters. Among the shades in the Desert Dusk palette is the gorgeous shade Angelic from the Rose Gold palette.

The textured eyeshadows are made to compliment the matte eyeshadows. You could opt for a neutral look or layer some of the textured eyeshadows all over your lids for a more glamorous look. Huda Kattan’s intention was to bring the most beautiful shades of the Middle East into a highly pigmented palette. In other words, Huda Beauty made another eyeshadow palette that will most certainly sell out immediately. According to the beauty mogul, she spent a lot of time in Italy to ensure that every shade is exquisite. They perfected the formula of the eyeshadows to ensure seamless application and wear. The Desert Dusk palette will also come with a mirror for makeup addicts who travel a lot.
