I’ve always said that being hot is really 75% only proper hygiene. Simply seeming clean and polished ups your hotness ratio by a lot.( I mean, except if you’re a guy living in LA, and then somehow you’re allowed to look filthy and still be considered hot because it’s “grunge” .) Celebrity have the means to push this further. Even without the plastic surgeons, they have access to the best hair stylists, very expensive extensions and wigs, the most skilled makeup artists, personal trainers, personal cooks, and the listing goes on and on. Meanwhile, appearing my best as a regular person entails putting on makeup in 10 minutes and poorly curling my hair–maybe put on jeans instead of leggings( but usually not, jeans are formal wear, everyone knows that ). But truly, if we all had Kardashian money and access, how much better appearing would we be?

Well, I made the decision to set that question to the test. Not by somehow becoming an overnight billionaire, but by taking a look at what the Kardashians used to look like before all the money and the renown. The Kardashian-Jenner clan were always rich, let’s build that clear, but once they get in the public eye, they have begun actually shelling out cash for their appearance. So what does being rich and having access to the the best of the beauty world do to your face? Let’s take a look.

Kim

Kim went from styling her makeup like Jafar to a “natural” looking.( I set “natural” in quotes because it still probably takes her a ton of makeup to got to get .) Kim speaking about makeup was the first time I had even heard the word ” contour ,” and say what you will, but she heavily influenced the style all of us think about makeup. She really does look like an entirely different person from her past self, and for some reason, also stopped smiling in photos. Is that a rich person thing or from the Botox?

Khloe

I genuinely thought that Khloe would look the most different due to her dramatic weight loss, but actually, she was actually pretty thin before she was mega-famous. Now she’s just super rent and in shape. In addition to the obvious hair colouring change, Khloe got a tan, is no longer subject to normal human problems like oily skin, improved her lips, and is “contouring” her snout differently. I will say, the makeup is definitely better! Why did we all suppose having shiny lips was a good look?

Kourtney

I always felt like Kourtney had the least amount of work done of her entire household, but this photo makes her face seem fairly significantly different. One thing being that she seems super miserable in every single photo now. Is that part of being “high fashion”? Or is that simply proving what they say about money not buying you happiness? IDK. What I do know is that years of the best makeup artists get Kourt to grow out her eyebrows and stop with the heavy-handed black liner. I say, from my high horse, although this was my* exact* look in middle school, too. Complete with the hoop earrings! It was just of the times for a regular person. But the money definitely altered Kourt from being subjected to us regular people tendencies( and, from the lookings of it, also changed her nose ).

Kris

Kris was always cute, and now she’s still cute, but she kinda looks like an entirely different person. Since her early days, Kris grew out her hair, got lash extensions, a new nose, and thicker eyebrows. She also lightened up the makeup, which stimulates her look style younger, but somehow has less wrinkles in the recent photo than the before thanks to her documented facelift and Botox.

Kendall

Kendall and Kylie are harder to show because they were literal children before they started their cyborg transformation. But I tried to find photos of them in their late teens. I always thought Kendall seemed the most natural out of all of them, with most of her changes being to her makeup , nose, lips, and learning how to serve~ lewks ~. Seriously, can Kendall teach me how to pose? I’m sick of looking awkward in every photo. I said today that her lips definitely look fuller, and not just from overlining them, but that’s neither here nor there.

Kylie

In a correlation that is definitely pertained, Kylie has the most money and has changed the most. Aside from being a child in the original photo, clearly there is a lot going on for this total glow-up. Surgery/ fillers aside, the biggest changes to Kylie’s face truly look like they’re from simply having the best of the best makeup and hair people. Before, she did her makeup like every other 14 -year-old. Now she looks like a true celebrity, with perfectly filled eyebrows, contour, super long lashes–the works.

This goes to show, with enough money, we could all look like these celebrities. It’s been said before, but I’ll say it again: nobody’s ugly, simply poor.
