This close-up of Kim shows just how much make-up you need for the Met Gala

It’s gotta be one of the most nerve-wrecking red-carpet experiences – up there with the Oscars.

And we have to say, this year Kim Kardashian totally won the Met Gala rocking a gorgeous gold Versace gown.

It’s probably not the easiest dress to wear – but the mum-of-three’s bod looked unbelievable in it.

Kim furthermore won praise for her makeup; heavier than usual, she sported a head-turning dark smokey eye and strip lashes.

Wowsers!

However, now a close-up of Kim has shown just how much time and effort needs to go into your makeup for an event of this calibre.

Posted to CelebFace Insta account – it has 330K fans – you can tell that Kimmy went for a heavy foundation, powder, contouring, and highlighter to achieve the look.

Full-coverage goals – and definitely merited considering she had to face hundreds of cameras and stay out all night.

As always, Kim was worked on by Makeup By Mario, now a celebrity in his own right too.

He posted a snap of Ms Kardashian to his Insta, revealing the products they had decided on for the gala.

  • Albanian eye shadow from the KKW x MARIO palette
