KKW x Allison Makeup Collection | Editor Review 2020

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.

The KKW x Allison Press Package

You can always count on Kim for an Instagram-worthy moment with her packageing. I love that the sleeves for the palettes are covered in throwback photos. This collection would be a sweet gift to give your own BFF.

The KKW x Allison Face Palettes ($38) are one of my favourite options from the collection. You can get so much use out of them (I have already used both multiple times this week).

KKW x Allison Face Palette in Ladera

For someone who is fair or pale like myself, the blush from the KKW x Allison Face Palette in Ladera ($38) is very flattering. I love the tone of the bronzer too and would even use it as eyeshadow.

KKW x Allison B.F.F.A.E. Eyeshadow Palette

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.
