Kim Kardashian goes “low-key, natural” on cover of Allure: still cat-faced?

Kim Kardashian covers the March issue of Allure Magazine. I feel like she was just on the cover a few months ago… yes, I’m right. She was on the cover last September. Damn, Allure. Give a cover to someone other than Kat-face! Anyway, this cover is “unique” because, as Kim says, “We went for a very low-key, natural look!” She’s not claiming to have gone completely “natural” obviously, but I guess we’re supposed to be impressed by the fact that she isn’t wearing four pounds of foundation and gigantic spider-leg false eyelashes. She looks okay on the cover… I mean, meh, whatever. These photos were obviously taken before her last round of lip injections and Botox. You can see Allure’s slideshow here, and here are some highlights from Kim’s interview:

She still wants kids: “Do I want kids of my own? Absolutely. But I don’t know if that’s what’s meant for me. Maybe I’ll just work, work, work, and not think about it.”

Watching her 72-day marriage crash and burn: “Is it tough to watch [the show]? Yeah. Tough to see an unhappy time in your life. Do I think there are more haters than before? Not really. But I think this has given them a platform to have a louder voice.”

Reality shows and limits: “Will I be more private of a person? Am I more guarded? Absolutely,” she says. “But, also, I’m a firm believer that my show is who I am. People [think] because you film your life on a reality show, you live everything for the cameras. But we all have limits. My mom has no limits. We need someone, right, to have no limits? That’s my mom. When I saw Khloé and Lamar get married—and they had their wedding on TV—I thought, Oh, my gosh, that’s so exciting! That’s what I want! If you were to ask me now, that’s not what I want.”

Future relationships: If Kardashian has regrets about sharing so much of her personal life on camera, she doesn’t dwell on them. Still, she says, the experience “definitely made me want to be more private with my relationship, whenever I choose to get into one again. I’m not ready, but when that time comes, I’ll be more cautious about who I let my world open up to.”

“Joking” about surrogacy: “Khloé joked with me and said, ‘Will you be my surrogate?’ I said, ‘I think I have a couple more years when I just want my body to myself. At 35, I promise I’ll consider it.'”

As for her future wedding? “I would just want it to be so special, with our family and close friends, and that’s it. Somewhere on a deserted island, very private,” she says, lowering her gaze. “No cameras.”

[From Allure]

Blah. I guess Kim is trying to sell an image of herself as “the girl who is still a hopeless romantic, but she’s just more cautious now.” Is that it? The only thing that bugged me was the stuff about Khloe “jokingly” asking Kim to be her surrogate – was it really a joke? I hope Khloe is able to get pregnant herself. I hope she doesn’t have to ask her sisters to help her out, because those bitches will act like friggin’ martyrs if they actually went through with it.

    Ok, so her eyebrows are grown out a little, and thankfully, not drawn on with a sharpie. Her face isn’t a shiny mess of pancake, and her eyelashes only have 3 coats of Maybellene instead of 10.
    But you can’t hide the tweaked eyes, nose and mouth. Sorry. And I can still see the bronzer “contouring” of her cheeks.
    And that rope in the last photo? Gross. It just rubs me the wrong way.

    • OriginalTiffany says:

      The rope pic is weird, right? Definitely implants.
      She looks better, but still kat-faced.
      Oh, I just saw candids of her going to her car in leggings and her ass is huge and lumpy as an old mattress. Girlfriend is rocking what looks to be a sub-par old mom butt that is about a size 12 on a tiny frame. It wasn’t good-at all. She didn’t even look curvy, just overweight.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        I always thought she had breast implants, the rope photo confirms it. We should just start discussing what she hasn’t nipped, tucked, plucked or sucked; I think the list is much shorter.

      • Franny says:

        That’s a really good point – I always thought her boobs were real because they never appeared to look like other implants – I never saw “the ridge”. But as a girl with a big bust, I know that large boobs would never stay up and firm like that with a heavy rope on it.

        Tricked again!

      • Happy21 says:

        @Franny!!

        Totally!! My boobs would be in my armpit, not perky when held up my a rope!

        This bitch must think that she is the smartest girl in the world. Venemently denying that she’s had work done yet we all know it and can see from any picture that is more than 4 years old what she used to look like.

        Ugh. If I saw her in the street, I’d risk the assault charge but I’d smack the shit out of her!

    • Bluebear says:

      Speaking as a woman who normally has DD size breasts, (I say normally since I am pregnant and they are currently F’s and ever-expanding) I would be in pain if you put a rope that size across my breast. If I had an implant underneath it perhaps it would just feel like pressure, but with a natural breast it would go concave under the pressure, push into my armpit and I would hurt. This picture is actually very uncomfortable for me to look at to be honest.

  2. Eleonor says:

    They must have worked hard to make her appear almost normal on that cover. Kim Kardashian and “natural” are some words who can’t stay in the same sentence.

  3. Mara says:

    She looks much younger with no make up on ,she is pretty nice body.

  4. helvetica says:

    She looks better without makeup.

    I wonder if the Kardashian has real friends, not the fake one.

  5. ClumsyMe says:

    While she does look better with less makeup, she is not the beauty she used to be. In the third picture her face looks really jacked up. Sort of swollen and just weird.

  6. TXCinderella says:

    She looks so much better with less makeup. She should wear makeup like this all the time and stop wearing those hideous fake eyelashed that she always wears.

  7. dorothy says:

    “Natural” and “Kardashian” should not be used in the same sentence. It’s an oxymoron.

  8. TXCinderella says:

    After reading the article I realize that she just doesn’t get that her days as a celeb are numbered. She has no real talent to speak of, so there is nothing there to keep the public interested for any length of time. Kris was right when he told her that and she doesn’t want to believe it.

  9. Floridaseaturtle says:

    Spew… tripe. Can’t decide.

  10. Sisi says:

    She had her nose done since this photoshoot… Right?

  11. Lola6 says:

    Why is she even ON A COVER?? C’mon Allure!

    • Dea says:

      I think these are all contracts that she already had. I read that after she was married she said that she had contracts and events booked for one year. That is what mama Kris had done. They knew they wont have these possibilities for ever so they booked and signed contracts endlessly. So magazines have to honor them otherwise mama Kris will sue for breach of contract. Lol. But you will see by the end of this year and early ext year they are all done for good!! No more invitations or magazine covers.
      I think she looks puffed and swollen. With so much photoshoping she still looks horrible and she is not a magazine cover material anymore.

  12. Franny says:

    She looks like a drowning cat. And this is coming from someone who doesn’t hate her. This is what a beauty magazine is telling us to aspire to? Fail.

  13. Agnes says:

    good lord, i wish she would stfu and go away for a while. give people a cat-face break.

  14. OriginalTiffany says:

    Holy crap you guys! We’ve all talked about Khloe and the hairdresser dude being her dad, but this solved blind has so many pics of them side by side and one of the Kartrashians when the girls were small. No way is she RK’s kid. I’ll never believe it, his other two daughter’s strongly have his DNA and Khloe looks just like Alex.
    http://blindgossip.com/?p=35899#more-35899

    I totally believe it know. The pics don’t lie.

    • Franny says:

      I feel for the girl because her whole life is based on “being a Kardashian” and she has always said she was the closest to Robert Senior. So even though he raised her as his own, I’m sure its tough to know your mom was a cheating slore and you have a different dad than your smaller petite sisters. But at least that clears up a lot of things why she looks so different than the rest.

  15. Jules says:

    Kim needs to GO AWAY for a while….like John Mayer.

  16. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    Does she have to ask and answer her own questions so much?

    “Do I want kids of my own? Absolutely.
    “Is it tough to watch [the show]? Yeah.
    ” Do I think there are more haters than before? Not really.”
    “Will I be more private of a person? Am I more guarded? Absolutely,”

    Uhhhhh!

    • anne says:

      Someone must have told her she would sound more intelligent restating the question before her simple answer – or it keeps her from using the word “like” multiple times per sentence.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @Anne, she sounds just like politicians who use diction coaches. Mama Kris probably insisted upon a coach to help her sound more intelligent. I don’t think it’s working.

    • Boxy Lady says:

      Writers will often clean up quotes for an interview. She probably did say “like” a ton of times but the writer probably just edited those out. And there’s a good chance that, for example, the writer asked,” Do you want kids of your own?” and Kim answered, simply,” Absolutely.” But for the purposes of the article, the writer may have inserted the question to make the article flow better.

      Good God, I can’t believe I just defended Kim Kardashian.

  17. The Truth Fairy says:

    Photo shoots are usually done weeks or months before the magazine actually hits the stands. I have a feeling these photos were taken before her most recent round of plastic surgery. Those recent Grammy party photos are grotesque!

    If she keeps going at this rate, Kim K will soon be in the same category as Janice Dickinson, Joan Rivers and even Jocelyn Wildenstein.

  18. Anna says:

    When you see her in less make up it’s less obvious that she’s had surgery on her face.

  19. Coucou says:

    Poor Kim…what has she done to her natural beauty? It speaks VOLUMES when you barely wear any makeup (at least, visibly), and yet, you still look tweaked and over-done. Whatever she has done to her face has literally rubbed away the original edges of her pre-Kat face, she used to have a unique, exotic look which i admired, but now, she just looks like your average LA hypodermic pin cushion…i see the same sort of phenomenon when i check out Real Housewives, etc. Gretchen, for example, like Kim, has ruined her natural beauty by trying to “preserve” it. And look what Adrienned Maloof has done to herself, she’s practically mummified.

  20. Dee Cee says:

    She’s ick.. posing as a ship wreaked, nearly naked survivor in black and white in Allure.. it is soooo .. ugly..

  21. Smarty says:

    The cover reminds me of Nicole Sherzinger… if she went on a three-day bender.

  22. LEIGH HARLOW says:

    SHE’S SO UGLY NOW.

    That’s what you get for messing with what god gave you. Just hideous

  23. Liz says:

    Wow, she looks so much better. That mask of make-up is always too much. She does have a lot of natural beauty but she’s about as interesting as a stick. Somehow along the way, those Kardashian girls forgot to work on the inside while painting their faces on the outside. Narcissism is not a pretty quality.

  24. paola says:

    Those pictures were taken at least 3 noses agor, she doesn’t look like that anymore.

  25. Dawn says:

    Blank dead eyes are all I see, nothing beautiful that is for sure. Yuk. I thought Miss Thing will be turning 33 this year…so in two years she will reconsider having kids? I say bs.

  26. Jen says:

    It’s like a parallel universe that THAT face makes the cover of a magazine. Nast.

  27. mememe says:

    Natural = Real. Now it’s time to work on that heart + head. What a concept.

  28. dena says:

    These are old pictures.

  29. Natasha says:

    Photoshop does wonders. And ummmm since when is a surgically altered face “low-key, natural” ???

  30. serena says:

    She’s actually so much better without that tons of makeup she uses. She seems natural -which she is not, I know- but close to her previous original self.

    Meh on the quotes except ‘We all have limits. My mom has no limits’.
    Oh well, at least she does know.

  31. rachel says:

    hate her..but very pretty photoshoot.

  32. Maggs says:

    I think she looks alot like Lourdes Leon here, doesn’t even look like KK

  33. Jover says:

    Thanks for the info Dea you answered my question as to how on God’s earth this trash bag scores mag covers; my pet cat can give more interesting interviews than this blow up sex toy; I just can’t get over how low fashion mags have fallen; in the 80s/90s they had supermodels beauties on their covers, now they have this plastic harpy.

  34. Tweakspotter says:

    Can we PLEASE go back to having actual MODELS on magazine covers!

  35. anonymoose says:

    Shouldn’t be on a cover of any magazine anywhere, unless it’s “No-Talent Unimportant Irrelevant Weekly”.

    NEVER has been “cat-face”.

  36. truthful says:

    I am sooo pissed OFF that ALLURE is still giving her covers that I am going to send them an email and drop my subscription and make sure my co workers and friends to the same ASAP..

    I hope they only 25 a few, the desperate media, just keeps trying to cram her down our throats.
    NO one wants any!! DAMN!

  37. caityyy says:

    So if we’re supposed to believe that this is how Kim looks naturally then she’s naturally a greasy, oily mess? Ick.

  38. Natasha says:

    Just realized, this is a photo of her BEFORE all the surgery. smh cmon yall.

  39. Camille (The original) says:

    These photos are so ugly. And I’d go so far as to say she looks fug.

  40. Viv says:

    I am confused. Work? What work is she talking about? Does she really think that what she does all day every day is work? She is pretty but, yo girl, you don’t work.

  41. vivien says:

    Ouch, that rope looks kind of painful, but maybe I just have sensitive boobs.
    She looks beautiful but all her surgery is really obvious and distracting from an otherwise pretty face. It’s kind of sad actually, there was no reason for her to do that to herself.

  42. Kim says:

    This is an awful cover! This shoot is pre-her latest/very recent face lift, nose slimming, etc. She is WAY more cat faced now. Im shocked she would ok this picture because she looks really ethnic and we all know how much she runs from her ethnicity.

  43. JT says:

    The picture with the rope over her breast is ridiculous. It looks like a water balloon. Breasts don’t retain their shape or definition when a woman lies on her back let alone with a giant rope across them. They pancake out and completely loose all contouring. She’s delusional if she thinks people will just overlook that.

  44. maryjones says:

    Hate this bitch. Allure is one of my favorite magazines but I am canceling my subscription. Next they will have Snooki on the cover!

  45. AB says:

    Of course she wont wed in front of the cameras AND have a ‘low key’ wedding, she has made enough profit from the last one!! no longer like this greedy female…

  46. Ogechi says:

    Kim is totally all natural without the makeup & those lashes-how I hate those spider lashes. I love kim beyond words. I agree with her- kim kardashian fans still love & buy her products. I am absolutely one of them, I’m proud & happy about that. The Allure cover is beautiful!

  47. marie says:

    I think she looks great. I wouldn’t want her empire or the manner in which she lives her life but she definitely isn’t ugly!She is making money because people watch her program.
