Popsugar Beauty Makeup KKW x Allison Makeup Collection | Editor Review 2020 I Previewed Every Item From the KKW x Allison Makeup Collab, and Here Are My Thoughts 28 August 2020 by Macy Cate Williams Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Macy Cate Williams As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too.

Sure, it's fun to test out a blue eyeliner or a glittery lip gloss from the trendy beauty collaborations that keep popping up, but is it what I want for my every day look? No. Especially not while I'm sheltering in place. That's why the new KKW x Allison collection ($18-$38) that comes out today at 12 pm PT is a breath of fresh air. It's makeup in flattering, neutral shades that I'll actually use right now. KKW Beauty is already known for mastering taupes, tans, and every shade in-between, but this new line Kim Kardashian created with her lifelong BFF Allison Statter takes it to the next level. Along with the brand's signature neutrals, I was excited to see little surprises like a shimmery lilac shadow and berry-hued lip crayon. Kim and Allison's tastes harmonize perfectly — a true match made in makeup heaven. I got a first look at the entire collab this week, and I tested out every single product. Ahead, read my honest review on all the new offerings (FYI, I'm wearing every release in my selfie!) and score consider a few essentials for yourself. It'll be the smartest purchase you've made all August.

Eyeshadow Palette Image Source: kkwbeauty.com In my selfie, I'm wearing all the shades in this KKW x Allison B.F.F.A.E. Eyeshadow Palette ($30) — I almost never do that. The darker colours seamlessly add definition to my crease without looking harsh. The matte and shimmery cream hues are ideal for highlighting the brow bone and inner corners of the eyes. I love the tan shadow for blending out harsh lines. But the crowning glory of this palette is 143, the lavender shade. I put it across the centre of my lid and love the metallic finish. It adds personally without looking kitschy or overly trendy. KKW x Allison B.F.F.A.E.
