Well this is a pleasant surprise! Kim Kardashian is rarely pictured without a face full of makeup, but for a recent Glamour.com feature, the reality star washed off the ‘pancake’ and talked about the one topic she’s clearly well-versed in: Beauty.

Her Favorite Beauty Tip: “My makeup artist, Mario Dedivanovic, taught me that after you put on concealer, set it with powder on top. It lasts longer.”

Her Makeup Philosophy: “I’m not one of those girls who sleep in makeup because they don’t want their boyfriend to see them without it. If you’re all glammed up, makeup’s just another accessory.”

Why She Switched Up Her Hair Color: “I went blond last summer just to test it out. I felt like I was a different person, I swear. I do think blonds have more fun, but brunettes are sexier.”

She also talks about boyfriend Reggie Bush and her Twitter haters, so be sure to read more from Kim Kardashian over at Glamour.com!
