Finally Kim Kardashian Reveals Her Shocking & Inxpensive Beauty Tips !



Kim Kardashian has been opening about her daily routine, especially when it comes to her skin and hair. The reality star was spotted looking chic and glam in Paris on Wednesday, April 15. Kim signed autographs and posed with fans at an event for her new hair care line called Kardashian Beauty, according to the Hollywood Life. The TV personality and fashion icon wore her signature raven hair in a sleek hairstyle.


 
Karashian’s fans have been wondering what it takes to look like her. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star revealed to Harper’s Bazaar that her makeup and hair care routine is now as high-maintenance as you think. In fact, it only takes her “15 minutes” to do her makeup, while she washes her hair “every three or four days.”
“If we have a meeting in the morning, then we don’t have time for hair and makeup, and we get ready ourselves. We do whatever we have time for. It’s not like hair and makeup is an everyday thing.”
“It takes me about 15 minutes to do my own makeup, and if I have my hair done from the day before, I can get ready quickly on my own. I don’t wash my hair a whole lot — every three or four days. When I get it done and blow-dried, that lasts for a while.”
Of course, Kim is never without her glam squad when she travels. Mario Dedivanovic did her makeup for the even in Paris. He shared a photo of Kim on his Instagram page with the following caption:

The famous Kardashian sister also revealed to Harper’s Bazaar how she keeps her flawless skin looking so smooth. She says that she loves using Erno Lazo’s Sea Mud Deep Cleansing Bar, which only costs $45. Kardashian says that it’s her favorite product for cleansing her face every morning and night. This black face soap helps give you the appearance of “brighter, rejuvenated skin,” according to another Hollywood Life report. Kardashian doesn’t like to stick to a strict skin care or shower routine. In fact, she has many products in her bathroom.
“I don’t stick to a specific routine with products. There are so many different shampoos and conditioners in my shower; I like to switch them up.”
Kim was spotted without makeup on Tuesday when she was heading to the gym. The reality star made headlines for wearing leggings that were too sheer. Kim’s fans also caught her in a rare moment without her full face of contour makeup. She looked a lot different and younger than she usually does, according to the Daily Caller.
Not only has Kim Kardashian been sharing her daily beauty routine, but she’s also been sharing her diet and fitness routine with Harper’s Bazaar. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, her diet changes every 10 days because she goes to see a nutritionist with her husband Kanye West. When it comes to working out, Kim Kardashian loves to walk on the tread mill or on the trail.

What is Kim Kardashian’s stem cell facial all about?


The big Kim Kardashian-Kanye West wedding was in the news recently, and apart from the glitzy venue and outfits, the buzz was also about the pre-wedding preps the bride-to-be underwent, one of them being the stem cell facial, that reportedly cost over $500! But Kim's is not the only one, there has been talk of stem cells in medicinal and beauty therapies. Here's more on this...



What it's about




Skin care contains either plant or human stemcells and the latter are able to produce copies over long a period of time.
Explains cosmetologist Dr Rashmi Shetty, "Blood is pulled out from a person. It is processed with a few ingredients and then centrifuged at a particular speed to get the growth factors. The blood is then injected into the person."


Says cosmetic dermatologist Dr Sadaf Rangooni, "The cells have two key components, which play a role in the growth of new cells and the production of collagen, elastin, etc. When applied to the skin, these help firm wrinkles and slow the development of new lines". Adds dermatologist Dr Apratim Goel, "As we age, there is slowing as well as breakdown of our skin collagen, blood vessels as well as other supporting connective tissues. When stem cells are applied on the skin along with electroporation and ultrasound devices, it reduces cell damage as well as starts new tissue formation. Increased blood supply is a part of the entire rejuvenation process, so it's like a renewal of the skin."

It's risky too




Both the safety as well as efficacy have been questioned and it's essential that the treatment is done under supervision of a skin expert. "The topically applied stem cells are usually derived from plant cell sources and there are not many side effects reported, but most of the safety doubts or questions are with the systemic injectable stem cells and that too of foetal or animal origin. Topically applied stem cells are usually safe. However, cases of allergy in the form of itching and redness has been noted," she warns.

Dr Shetty also has a warning, "Stem cells are being used in beauty treatments but you have to be careful of the source you pick up. You cannot use stem cells or growth factor from an unknown line (stem cells that can grow something else). The simplest way is to derive cells from your own body fluid, but to maintain safety always go to a credible doctor. There is also a lot still happening in this field and the subject

Can it help hair growth?




"I have used these cells on a few patients and they have shown to help with thinning hair and balding. What happens is, the cells are injected into the scalp. It stimulates the hair and even makes individual hair look healthier," adds Dr Shetty.


Stem cell therapy is said to be used for wrinkles, fine lines, dry skin, acne scars, skin lightening and more. But scientists say further research is needed to prove the claim that this can diminish wrinkles and other ageing issues.

When to start




Not before 25, but people can age differently and some may need it only after 40. It's best to judge from the way your skin looks, so don't generalise, she says. 

How often to do this?




Every four to six weeks, which is the skin renewal time frame. And do it just two to three times a year.

Watch out!




Stem cell skin therapies should not be performed on those with infection or inflammatory conditions of the skin. It is not recommended for pregnant or breast feeding women, warns Dr Rangooni.
