Kim Kardashian purchased the American licensing rights for ‘organic Botox’

kim botox

For a few months now, Kim has been posting these kinds of selfies on her social media to show off her makeup tutorials. I like to look at the photos not to get makeup tips but to see how utterly weird Kim’s face looks with each passing month. I’m almost startled when I see photos of Kim from just a few years ago: she has an evolving face, a face that grows less hairy and more frozen by the day. Her skin has a weird, other-worldly quality and I don’t mean that as a compliment. I mean it as “she looks like a cat-faced alien.” So how and why does she look this way? The answer, we have always believed, is that she’s full of Botox, fillers and other injectibles. But now there’s a new explanation: “organic Botox.” For real?

Kim Kardashian has purchased the licensing rights in America for Biotulin, an organic botox gel – in a reported million dollar deal.

The reality TV star, who has admitted to using botox injections in the past, lashed out at claims earlier this year when rumours emerged that she was using injectable botox, an synthetic muscle-freezing toxin, during her second pregnancy. She took to Instagram to say “No, I won’t have any Botox injections during my pregnancy, just like the tabloids are claiming. You would have to be really sick to endanger your child like that. Anyone who has been pregnant or gained weight knows your face totally changes! My nose gets bigger, cheeks fuller and my lips swell up.”

It’s reported that Kardashian is a fan of the organic botox gel. The transparent gel – which is applied topically – claims to smooth wrinkles within an hour. Although the immediate smoothing effects only last up to day, the wrinkle-reducing effects are claimed to be cumulative, smoothing the skin with continued use. The main ingredient in Biotulin is spilanthol, a local anaesthetic obtained from the extract of the plant acmella oleracea. It reduces muscle contractions and relaxes facial features – and is apparently also used by Michelle Obama, Kate Middleton and Carla Bruni.

The German manufacturers claim that even the tiniest amount of spilanthol is enough to completely relax the muscles beneath the skin treated, and in clinical trials a result similar to Botox was noticed within 60 minutes of application.

For the business-savvy Kardashian, whose fortune is estimated to be worth close to 45 million dollars, purchasing the licensing rights in America for Biotulin could be her next big earner. And if you fancy trying the formula yourself, you can buy the Biotulin Supreme Skin Gel online for £37 – a very reasonable price compared to botox injections, which can cost more than £200 a go.

[From The Telegraph]

First of all, Kim is worth a lot more than $45 million. I suspect she’s probably made about $45 million in the past year, at least on paper, given her profits from her iOS game and her many other projects. Second of all, if Biotulin really does what they claim – providing Botox-like “freeze” without needles – then Kim is SO smart to buy the licensing rights. She’ll make a fortune, especially out there in LA. She’ll make a fortune just from her FAMILY. And haha if this is what the Duchess of Cambridge uses. Kim is buying the licensing rights just so Kate will have to beg her for a Biotulin hookup, then Kim’s master plan will have worked!

Here are some photos of Kim heading to lunch at La Scala in Beverly Hills yesterday. Call me crazy, but she actually managed to put together a decent butt-covering look here. I would love it if she stopped wearing heels though. Her feet/ankles look painful.

    OK, Just had to look this stuff up. The website says “For optimal results, use Biotulin gel several times a day”. Doesn’t seem that revolutionary.

    • It’ll appeal to the needle phobic population.

    • Christin says:

      I bought a product a few years ago that made similar claims (to reduce wrinkle appearance for hours). It was like a thin layer of clear glue that would basically hold the skin taut. Didn’t use the entire tube and don’t even remember the name.

    • Belle Epoch says:

      This is ridiculous and I expect the manufacturer will not be permitted to call it “organic Botox” (a nonsense term) for long. It has nothing to do with Botox – it’s just a face creme. From the site:

      “this extract is comparable to Botox. The results are similar, but it’s much simpler to use. Biotulin is applied to the face as a soothing lotion. It is quickly absorbed, smoothing the skin to make it soft and supple. Unlike Botox, it does not numb your face or restrict your facial expressions. Your features will still be reanimated and beautiful.”

      “Botox” was developed as a weaponized neurotoxin and is “the most acutely lethal toxin known.” When people ingest the tiniest amount (botulism) all the muscles in their body stop working and they die. The lucky ones are put on a ventilator for months, trapped inside a body that cannot move. I believe very few places produce this toxin because of liability issues – and I would imagine issues of national security as well. Anybody know?

  2. Die Zicke says:

    Looked it up on Amazon.Dr (German version of the website) The reviews aren’t very good. Which is a pity. If a product could actually give you botox like results within an hour and it lasted all day, it would be a huge hit. I feel like everyone would have it. I am still a little tempted to buy it and test it out myself though…

    • Snarky says:

      Right? Me too.

    • greenmonster says:

      Just looked up the reviews myself. Interesting that the good reviews sounded so identical: i looked refreshed, don’t expect to much, can’t help with deep wrinkles. Always sceptical if positive reviews are quite similar. Better listen to the negative ones and safe your money.

    • MG says:

      I couldn’t help it…I bought it. Normally I read all the reviews but I was in a hurry this morning and just did it. It wasn’t crazy outrageous (like La Mer) so if it doesn’t work I won’t feel too guilty.

      • BRE says:

        lol, I held back but I totally understand the impulse. I even bought one of those red light masks once!

    • Jag says:

      She is smart for this! I was wondering how it compared to Syn-ake, the synthetic viper topical that does a similar thing. It sounds like I’ll stick to my Syn-ake instead of trying the organic Botox. lol (I get mine from Platinum Skincare.)

      • Die Zicke says:

        Does Syn-ake work? I really only want it for some fine lines around my eyes.

      • H says:

        Yes, I’m just looking for a good eye cream that reduces fine lines and everything I’ve tried, from cheap to expensive, has been a bust. Not sure about stuff with viper serum in it though. Love to hear your review.

    • Elisa the I. says:

      @die Zicke: I love your name! 🙂
      I just checked out amazon.de and the reviews are really not good. Also the German website has contact details in France and the licence holders are located in Panama which sounds like a scam…
      Syn-Ake has better reviews on Amazon. The best reviews are by far for Hyaluron, I might give that a try in the near future.

    • Mia says:

      Me too.

    • Crumpet says:

      Actual Botox is in clinical trials now for a topical alternative. I can’t wait!

  3. LAK says:

    Yesterday I found myself standing next to a lady with a frozen botox face with a lasered hairline and duck lips.

    I couldn’t stop staring at her because her face was so completely off. Oddly the lasered off hairline was the strangest thing about her face because it gave her a plasticised lego hair effect.

    When I think of everything Kim has done to her face, this lady was the reality.

    • snowflake says:

      Wow. Was that in the US?

      • LAK says:

        London. UK.

        She must have thought I was a rude idjit if she noticed me because I couldn’t stop staring at her.

    • SydneySnider says:

      That happened to us recently in Sydney, LAK. My daughter was a finalist for a prestigious industry award (she won!) and was having her waist-length hair styled. A lady came out and told her she’d be doing her makeup when the two hairdressers had finished. My daughter had to ask her to repeat herself. While the lady was doing her make up, same thing – we could not stop staring. It was difficult to tell her age, as her face was completely frozen. She could hardly blink and just watching her heavily-filled lips trying to move as she spoke as painful. For us. As for making clear sounds for speech….well, no wonder my daughter had asked her to repeat herself earlier. Yes, her dress, grooming, make up and hair were perfect, but she just looked, well, bloody awful.

  4. Swack says:

    Not tempted to by anything she is selling. She has endorsed products that have not been proven effective and are a bit dicey.

    • swack says:

      *buy not by

    • WinnieCoopersMom says:

      Agree. How much heat has she gotten into about those diet pills? And more recently, wasn’t it happening too with the cream? (Cant remember if it was to help with stretch marks or psoriasis.) Anyway, the products she shills have be called into question by the FDA on numerous occasions. No thanks.

      • jwoolman says:

        Something that really works well for such things hardly needs a celebrity endorsement. Word of mouth advertising would be pretty much enough. Just saturate the market with discount coupons and free samples.

    • anon33 says:

      My BFF is pregnant and struggling with horrible morning sickness, she takes Diglesic. Apparently her ob/gyn said the “Kim Kardashian hype” around the drug being dangerous was just that-hype-and it’s perfectly safe for pregnant women.

      • jwoolman says:

        Anon33- doesn’t matter how relatively safe a drug seems, the law says they have to list the potential side effects encountered in clinical trials and post-marketing approval adverse event reports. It is difficult to distinguish between mere coincidence and real cause-and-effect. Sometimes patterns in problems don’t surface until quite some time after a drug is approved, as more and more people use it. This is why the law requires that companies monitor all mention of their drugs in the medical literature, and the Europeans at least seem quite serious about reporting any adverse events to a central agency. (I run into such materials in my translation work.)

  5. Mia V. says:

    Kim, the Selfiesh, has worked more in her life than Kate, the Lazy.

  6. Don't kill me I'm French says:

    She also should try to sell some casher Botox .
    When I read It,I was ” WTF !??”

  7. greenmonster says:

    Trying to sell skin creme by saying Duchess Kate and Carla Bruni are using it? One looks quite old for her actual age and the other one has messed up her beautiful face and looks more like an alien than Kim does.

    • jwoolman says:

      Even one time trial use would let them say that. Although I wonder how happy those people are to hear they are being used to recommend a commercial product. Somehow I doubt they gave permission.

  8. astrid says:

    If this is what Kim uses, I’m totally running the other way. No way in hell I’d want my face to look like hers.

    • FingerBinger says:

      A product endorsed by a Jenner or Kardashian is most likely garbage.

    • SydneySnider says:

      It’s ok, astrid. I’m confident it’ll be the same as the Kardashian Kollection of attire – they sell it, but never wear it. They only wear real designer clothing, shoes, bags etc. Their cheap products – whatever they are – are for peasants.

      Speaking of bags… Why does she never carry a bag anymore? She only ever carries two phones. What happened to all those expensive bags?

    • kitty-bye says:

      Exactly. I am extremely distracted when I see shows with faces that have been tweaked in some way. I rather see the older beauties in all their glory vs. freaky rubber plastic expressionless faces.

  9. Kerry says:

    Genuinely curious: WHAT does she do? If she were to fill out a questionnaire detailing her occupation… What would she put? TV personality? Entrepreneur?

    • greenmonster says:

      Snakeoil saleswoman.

    • Chica says:

      BUT, She IS a business woman. I don’t know why ppl act like she isn’t. She herself is a business, and she makes a lot of business decisions on her own behalf, whether that is investing in a product or promoting one. WTF you guys think advertisers are, and models…?

      She is a product promoter amongst other things, and it is a real job, even if Kimmie the Hated is doing.

  10. Natacha says:

    Did anyone bother to go on the Biotulin website? It has “scam” written all over it. All their nice press articles are extracted from/pointing towards a fake online magazine (and a super poorly edited one at that) which also features some really obvious advertising.
    http://celebrities.cn.com
    Probably a smart business move, but I wouldn’t buy into what looks like another shameless money grab.

  11. De says:

    I get botox every three months for severe headaches, and I can’t get over people using it for beauty reasons. Maybe it’s a different procedure? I find it so painful, I’d rather wrinkles.

    Now if a gel botox worked for headaches, I’d be all over that.

    • jwoolman says:

      Worth a try. Have you tried muscle relaxants? I have a joint and muscle pain cream that I’ve heard people have used to head off headaches as well (off-label use…).

    • Josephine says:

      Botox for headaches requires about 3x more shots that botox for beauty, so that may be the reason people are able to tolerate it for beauty. Also, when you’re getting botox for headaches, you’re getting it in different places than someone getting it only for wrinkles. And people who are prone to migraines often are much more sensitive to pain.

      • Cricket says:

        As a migraine sufferer, I don’t know if I agree that people prone to migraines are much more sensitive to pain. Personally, I think I have a high tolerance to pain because of the migraines I’ve suffered. Having to work and press on when your head feels like it literally is going to explode and you can barely keep your eyes open because of the pain is not something I think a low tolerance to pain sufferer could endure.

        I have a friend who has worse migraines that I do and is currently getting botox for them. She has recently also tried marijuana in medicinal pill form (like gummy bears). I think it’s called big red or something like that, she gets it from CO. It has helped her more than anything so far, including the botox. She takes it at the onset of the migraine and it shortens the length and strength of it.

    • Jag says:

      Look into taking Feverfew if it’s migraines. My sister swears by it.

      • Antonym says:

        @Jag – I’ll have to look into that. I’m always willing to look at alternatives for handling the breakthrough headaches. Magnesium is supposed to help as preventative, if anyone’s interested in discussing that with their dr… It’s all about finding what works for your body.

    • Antonym says:

      @De – I tell my Nuerologist the same thing every time I’m in for my treatment. It is way too painful to do for vanity alone. I just remind myself that it really reduces the frequency of my migraines, and that makes it worth the temporary pain.

      @Jwoolman – I take a small dose muscle relaxer daily for a separate issue. I wish it helped with the migraines, but for me it doesn’t. Botox was a last resort…..

      • De says:

        Thanks everyone 🙂 unfortunately, muscle relaxants don’t have an effect. I had to try almost every relaxant and pain killer medicine under the sun before getting the okay for botox.

        @Antonym – I’m glad to hear it’s working for you! I agree, it’s worth it in the long run because nothing else helped me and I couldn’t remain on painkillers all the time. I’m just about to finish my undergraduate degree and I know I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the botox.

  12. Jenni says:

    LOL. It will be huge success because we all know that Kim is the epitome of “organic” and “natural”. She is so soaked in chemicals that Poison Ivy looks like amature next to her.

  13. ncboudicca says:

    Even if that did work, part of the art of Botox is knowing where to inject it to get the desired results. I could probably easily get rid of my #11 forehead, for example, but the fine-tuning around my brow to help me put off a blepharoplasty for a few more years takes more skill.

  14. jwoolman says:

    She might get into trouble if she actually pedals it as “organic Botox” since in the USA that implies the ingredients are all organically grown and there are regulations to follow before using that term. Maybe they are grown without pesticides, but she had better read up on label requirements. Also there are many other ingredients besides the two plant derivatives, they look like standard approved excipients at first glance but a “natural” label probably won’t fly either. It’s obviously a plant-based alternative to Botox with a similar but very temporary effect, but not sure if that would be allowed to say that either except carefully, since it isn’t Botox at all.

    I wonder if she actually uses it herself? She and her family have a history of selling/recommending for cash things they don’t really use themselves. But if she wants a Botox effect but can’t use it while pregnant, she might be using this stuff. That doesn’t mean the kiddo inside won’t be affected, but it’s almost certainly a whole lot safer than botox. The temporary effect would actually be an advantage, if it works the way people want. No long-term commitment to frozen face. I’ll pass on it, though.

    • Josephine says:

      I don’t think the terms “organic” and “natural” are regulated much in the US. And I agree that there is no way she uses what she shills. Everything they shill is very low end garbage, and my guess is that her skin is 100% the result of multiple treatments by a dermatologist and real botox.

      • jwoolman says:

        I’ve seen cases when companies have been forced to change their labels when they misuse “natural” and “organic” in food products at least. But some citizens group generally has to make a lot of noise about it, review of the labels isn’t automatic by any government agency. I wouldn’t buy such things except from established and trusted manufacturers, since quality control can be sketchy and labels can be quite inaccurate. The FDA does crack down on prescription drug label issues, though.

    • Lucrezia says:

      I had the same thought … no way is she getting away with labelling it as “organic botox”.

      However, I wouldn’t be willing to bet it’s a “whole lot safer than botox”.

      If spilanthol acts as a local anaesthetic, it’s absorbed by the skin, which means it probably crosses the placenta. It’s used as flavouring agent, so it’s not THAT toxic … but it’s also used as an insecticide, so it’s not THAT harmless either. (Actually, reading up on it, it seems very similar to capsaicin – the chemical that makes chillies hot.)

      Since “muscle-relaxant” isn’t one of it’s most noted properties, it either doesn’t work, or they’re using extremely strong concentrations to get an effect. I certainly wouldn’t be lining up to be one of the first guinea pigs.

  15. Aussie Reader says:

    In reading the reviews and glancing at the website, this stuff appears to be very similar to a product by the name of ‘Freeze Frame’ which does, surprisingly, work (especially on the lines above the nose and between the eyebrows). You have to use a lot of it, and it goes sticky and feels horrible when it sets, but over a period of 12 months it definitely worked for me.

  16. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    I’m just astonished at the absolute panic of women in their thirties about getting some lines on your face. Buying all this junk made of God knows what and slathering it on three times a day so the muscles in your face won’t work? So you will look like a plastic doll? I’m all for taking good care of your skin, using sunscreen and moisturizer and never sleeping in makeup, getting facials or whatever, but I promise you, you’re going to age whether you like it or not, and it’s not the end of the world. I honestly would not trade me face for Kim’s, though I have some laugh lines around me eyes. At least I look human.

    • littlemissnaughty says:

      I’m 31 and I don’t get it at all. Granted, I’m a skincare/SPF fanatic and do everything in my power to make my skin look as good as I can. But needles? Knives? No. I’m a) too scared and b) wholly unconvinced that it will actually make you look younger. It’s genetics and/or a healthy lifestyle, period. Because while you can prevent spots/wrinkles etc. using good products, a lack of wrinkles doesn’t make you look 22. I have absolutely none yet but I still don’t look 22 anymore. Wrinkles don’t show your age, your AGE actually does. And if someone is nipped and tucked, I automatically think they’re trying to look younger so they must be older. I don’t get this whole idea. It doesn’t work.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        Exactly. It doesn’t work. Oh, enjoy your thirties. I’ve said this before, but I think most women are at their prettiest then. I’m so glad you’re not dousing yourself in Botox!

      • littlemissnaughty says:

        I can’t afford Botox anyway but that’s another story. 🙂 And I honestly do think that 30 is the new 20 and so on. Who in their right mind would call someone who’s 60 old these days? Times have simply changed and it’s in the attitude. I want to age like her: http://www.looks-der-stars.de/artikel/ines-de-la-fressange-ihre-au-ergewohnlichen-beauty-geheimnisse_a273/1
        Don’t pay attention to the text, it’s in German. But I love that picture. Her model genes are probably helping of course but she has wrinkles. And looks frickin’ fantastic!

      • prettylights says:

        I’m almost 31 and I am starting to notice a few forehead lines and more ‘laugh lines’ around my eyes when I smile (I smile and joke around a lot – maybe I should become like Kim K and stop smiling to stop the wrinkles, ha!). I don’t like it but I know it’s inevitable. I try to take pretty good care of my skin though. I use only organic products (African black soap or olive oil soap, almond moisturizer, Grapeseed oil or Argan oil), wash every night and moisturize, use SPF and if I’m going to be in the sun for extended periods I wear a hat. I get a lot of fruit and veggies in my diet and drink tons of water. The last few times I went to test foundations the MUA’s both said I have ‘great skin’ which surprised me after battling clogged pores and mild acne for years. I guess my skin is finally settling down.

        Would I try botox or something someday? Maybe, I’m not opposed to the idea, but I’d like to see more long-term studies of it before I inject anything into my face!

    • vauvert says:

      I am with you both. Yes, I use organic creams (I don’t want petroleum based products on my face) and stay out of the sun, and get facials when I can. My skin doesn’t look as good as it did in my twenties – you lose the elasticity you have when you are young and even if you don’t have wrinkles (I barely do) that is what ages you. Once you start to do cheek implants and fillers your face changes your natural shape and then you have to keep maintaining things because even surgery results fade after a while.
      No matter what you do, how much time and money you spend on trying to stay young looking, there is no miracle cure. I am always saddened that women (well mostly women but men too) spend such an unholy amount of money desperately trying to cling to an appearance of youth. Not sure what drives it – insecurity? An attempt to attract a partner? What? There is so much actual living one could do instead – travel, charity, cultural pursuits, spending time with loved ones…

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        You ask what drives it? Yes, insecurity. No woman wants to look old or haggard. Unfortunately, many overdo the surgeries/injections and end up looking far far worse than if they had just allowed themselves to age gracefully. Also unfortunately, I think for many women, it’s an addiction. “Oh I look great after that eye lift/face lift etc what else can I do to look even better? Oh I’ll plump my lips just a bit, fill in a couple lines here and there..” It’s this trying to achieve perfection thing. I have first-hand seen women (who usually seem to be competing against others in their social circle) who just cant help it..they get sucked in, cool sculpting, lasers, facials..they end up fighting a losing battle with themselves and sadly it’s their bank account and never satisfied self-esteem that are the victims. So hard to watch.

    • Tifygodess24 says:

      @gnat I’m one of those women you speak of 🙁 I just turned 35 and totally freaking out. I notice such a difference in my face. And don’t like it. Blah! I know we all will age but I still find it depressing. However I will say I would never want to look like Kim , or a plastic doll. That’s such a bad fake look. I wouldn’t do Botox (scares me plus I have health stuff) but I would totally love a filler for my laugh lines and maybe for my under eye. I think the problem is people see Kim and other Hollywood celebs and automatically assume everyone who gets the stuff will end up looking like that. There’s a fine line between refreshed and cat like.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        I probably should have mentioned that I’m saying this after having gone through the awful feelings about it myself. I didn’t mean to imply that when I saw the first signs of aging, my reaction was “cool!” It was “yikes!” It’s change – it’s the unknown – it’s scary as hell. How is this happening to me? I am being punished for something I didn’t do. All of that. I just know now, from the other side, that it happens gradually, and it’s never as bad as you imagine it will be. And I’m not against anything that makes you feel better about yourself as long as you don’t wind up looking like a plastic doll. I just wish, for your sake, that I could stop the panic. It’s going to be ok, my friend. You’re not going to wake up tomorrow with a mustache. (Unless you went to sleep with one.) You’re still going to be pretty, just in a different way. You’re going to stop caring so much about the outside, too, though of course not completely. I still sigh sometimes about certain things. Oh, my high school butt was awesome, and I didn’t even notice. But, you’re going to love yourself more than ever and have an awesome life, and those little lines are going to be part of the character of your lovely face. You have a good heart and a good mind and I promise it will be ok! But I know you probably won’t believe me.

      • Tifygodess24 says:

        @gnat you made me chuckle haha and I know what you mean ! And it’s great advice for sure and thank you. I’ve just always been super conscious about age and aging and it’s deep seeded for sure. While I don’t mind some of the changes others I could do without that for sure. Haha

  17. Skyblue says:

    I personally like a little botox to relax the frown line between my eyes that I refer to as my Tom Hanks furrow. In fact I’m going in tomorrow to get a tune up. I can’t judge…I do try to embrace my aging face and body but damn it is hard! Nothing wrong I guess with a little upkeep. Hope I never get convinced I need any more than that though!

  18. Tessa says:

    If it worked, it would be classed as a drug and not a cosmetic. You arnt allowed to advertise or endorse prescription drugs outside of USA so I doubt it does much.

  19. Cran says:

    Personally I would not purchase anything she or her family endorses because they are poorly researched, cheaply made or possibly harmful. Reference the Kredit card targeting young people which was a rip off, their bottled water which sold for a ridiculous price, the products endorsed on her various social media accounts that do not include legally required disclosure information, the cheaply made, overpriced clothes line.

    I know the clothes she attempts to wear are expensive but the look on her says ill fitting, cheaply made. Even when she admits to having altered to fit or to correct a last minute wardrobe malfunction the effect looks to be the result of some drunken repair effort made in a dimly lit dive bar bathroom. It is just poorly done.

    And no this has nothing to do with her height, her weight or her pregnancy. Kim has always dressed in clothing that is too small and not suited for her frame. Her fashion sense has not improved one jot. Kanye may have provided Kim access to a better class of designer but she has not used that access to her benefit. The outfits still come across to my eyes as poorly fitted and cheaply made.

    • jwoolman says:

      I imagine the real purpose of their new apps is to provide a private conduit for their ads posing as recommendations. Maybe the rules are different, or maybe Instagram and Twitter are going to start insisting that they be labeled properly as ads. A subscription service might not be covered by such things, don’t really know. So their fans are paying them every month to be directly targeted by their disguised advertising. Of course, you could say the same for newspaper and magazine and cable TV subscriptions, since they are filled with ads also. I guess the difference is that they don’t usually disguise the fact that the ads are ads in newspapers, magazines, and on TV. Although I’ve seen stuff on the Disney channel that was blatant promotion for their movies, disguised as unbiased reviews by a bunch of enthusiastic young actors.

    • Dawn says:

      I agree and their perfume line is no better than their clothing line. Just more expensive than it should be.

  20. Bucketbot13 says:

    If she’s getting licensing only for America, how does it end up being that Duchess Dolittle would need to beg Kim for a session?!

  21. Pandy says:

    Just get the real thing. Easier and cheaper in the long run I’m betting. I spend only $600 a year on it now as I’ve been using it for a few years. And I won’t give that idiot any of my $$$$.

    I would love to have her skin. I don’t want to look weird but I just want to know what it’s like to have clear pretty skin.

    • jwoolman says:

      I don’t think Kim has Kim’s skin…. She wears a ton of makeup and I think she has significant problems with her skin. It’s all disguised by the makeup. Or just by photoshop.

      I get a kick out of her Zoolander expression in the photo, though.

      @ Isa

      Google “model without makeup” and then look at the pics. It gives you a more normal idea what normal skin looks like. The beautiful skin presented in advertising and on TV isn’t real.

    Um. I’ve been pregnant twice and no my facial features did not totally change. This is only a side effect of pregnancy for Alien Cat ppl I suppose.

    • Don't kill me I'm French says:

      According to my dermatologist,it happens when You do some plastic surgeon stuffs on her face and you have water retention

    • anon33 says:

      Again, every pregnancy is different. One of my friends has had three kidsd, and with every single pregnancy, her nose and cheeks swelled to the point where she looked almost entirely different in the face, and I can assure you, she’s never had any plastic surgery.

    • Chica says:

      you don’t speak for every pregnancy, so what you’re saying is moot!

    But is it non GMO?

  25. Maya says:

    I just looked on biotulin . Com and in the home page they say “Thanks Kate”. If they put it they must not fear a reaction or backlash from her. That means Kate really uses biotulin !?

  26. me says:

    The Kardashian/Jenner family never actually use any of the products they endorse. I don’t know if I really believe she’s using Organic Botox. If she IS using it, she is not the right face for the brand as she does not look natural at all.

  27. Belle says:

    Because *organic* toxins are so much better for you than synthetic. *eye roll*

    I used to sell a product very similar to this “organic botox gel” when I had a day spa. It was made from the Hibiscus plant and it did work, over time the wrinkles would soften and be less noticeable. Not Botox smooth, but noticeably different. So, this stuff may very well work the same, but at the end of the day I still think it’s an utter waste of money. When I’m 90 I’d rather have a face full of wrinkles & a mind full of memories of adventures and travel rather than an empty head and a baby-bum smooth face.

    I’m sorry… she looks like a giraffe in the face. Not appealing.. but, that’s just my opinion.

  30. mrsrockstar says:

    I swear that a quick glance at the first photo she looks like mary kate olsen with a dark wig and pregnant.But the face…

    Do they know yet if the baby will be flesh or plastic?

  32. Whatever Gurl says:

    I intentionally gained 5 lbs and my face looks so much better. I’m 40 and I can’t be 110 lbs anymore.

  33. alicegrey12 says:

    Kim is so full of B.S. and donkey poop. She bought the rights to the stuff so she can sell it to others for a good chunk of change. So this way she can become richer than she already is.

  34. Snowflake says:

    Idk why people give Kim all the credit for her business deals, she’s dumber than a box of rocks. If it wasn’t for kris, Kim would have been history a long time ago

    • jwoolman says:

      Yes, it’s pretty obvious that Kris is the one setting everything up for her. Kim doesn’t talk like someone interested in and competent in business. It’s clear that Kourtney is the only one interested in running their store, for instance. Kim avoided doing anything on that project, someone with a real business orientation would have been right there by Kourtney’s side. Kim is very interested in fame and money, she was always clear that she wanted to be famous. The show was actually intended to be a vehicle to promote Kim, and Kris is the one who made that happen. I would call Kim a model, but not really a businesswoman. I doubt that she writes her own copy promoting the products she shills.

  35. HatetheletterKf says:

    Not an attractive pregnant woman, at all.

  36. analee says:

    Meanwhile, she’ll continue to use the real Botox, all the while claiming that it’s the new, “organic” Botox she promotes that is causing her (surreally) smooth face. She’s as predictable and transparent as a clock…My best friend/cousin has tried Botox twice, and liked the results; however the upkeep of it is too expensive for her to consistently maintain. I think she looks lovely with or without it–unlike Kim, who just looks ghoulish by now! She looks like the Halloween mask of herself now, borderline scary, and her empty eyes, or eyeholes, are really, truly without any relatable, responsive, legible human expression.

  37. My two cents says:

    Personally, I think a middle aged natural face with some smile lines and eye lines is far more attractive because it’s natural!

    • Pondering thoughts says:

      Yep. My preferences for “attractive” do grow old with me.
      When I was 20 I didn’t like wrinkles.
      Now I am in my mid-30ies and I find some slight wrinkles very attractive. 😉

      Btw. I wonder what regualar botoxing does to your face. Your muscles are there for a reason and if you botox your forehead then you can’t move your eyebrows properly any more, right? Isn’t that bad for your eyes if you can’t squint properly any more?

  38. Pondering thoughts says:

    There are dozens of medication that need to be developed to cure people in utter misery. But they aren’t developed because they wouldn’t make any money.
    Whereas this silly stuff organic botox is being developed and licensed and made money from. Tax people higher because if they can afford such silly stuff then they can afford higher taxes, too. And then develop the necessary medication which isn’t interesting for commercial pharma companies.

    Seriously.

    I thought you shouldn’t botox when preggers?

  39. raincoaster says:

    In case nobody else has mentioned it, Botox IS organic. It’s a toxin produced by the botulism germ.

    • Bread and Circuses says:

      EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY.

      But I think they mean “organic” the same way “herbal” was being used in the “herbal Viagra” that Lamar overdosed on. When they say “organic”, they really mean, “something not equivalent, not tested, not regulated, and less effective”.

      The excerpt in the article makes it clear, this stuff has nothing to do with Botox, despite the misleading name(s).

    • jwoolman says:

      Botox is natural, but I wouldn’t call it organic except in the chemical sense (organic compounds in chemistry include carbon atoms, in contrast to inorganic compounds, with a few simple exceptions). Organic in the USA typically means organically grown, which means grown without the usual synthetic pesticides and fertilizers that often cause problems for humans and other animals. technically, I guess you could say the little microbial source was growing it organically, though…. 🙂
