Contouring like a Kardashian is so 2015. Now, Kimmy K is all about strobing.

Never did we ever think we would see the day that contouring became so yesterday.

But as it happens, the makeup trend that we have just finally gotten good at has now been taken over by a new one, which funnily enough requires less products, effort and time.

Speaking to Vogue UK at The Vogue 100 Festival, the glamour gal confessed that “non-touring” is the new contouring.

“I think right now it’s more about non-touring, like real skin with less make-up on it. I’m trying to wear less… and my husband loves me without make-up,” she announced from the Fashion, Friendship and Fabulous Lashes panel.

“Now when I travel, I just bring a small makeup case, and I’m content with that. I’m really into strobing now, so just highlighting the skin without using bronzer.”

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star stepped out sans fake lashes and hair extensions earlier this week.

And the brunette beauty really did practice what she preached by sporting a much more natural look throughout the festival.

As she stood proudly showing off her post-baby bod in a stunning rose gold Talbot Runhof dress, the wife of Kanye West demonstrated her favourite new makeup trend with natural blush tones and dewy, highlighted skin.

It was indeed a new, fresh look for the reality star who usually dons a full face of makeup, but she did admit to the one feature she simply couldn’t give up contouring.

“I don’t think I’d stop contouring my nose,” she told the audience. “I know people think I’ve had a nose job, but it really is just make-up!”

What do you think? Has Kim has work done to her nose, or does it all just come down to contouring?

Exchanging stories with makeup guru Charlotte Tilbury – who has famously revealed that her husband has never seen her without makeup as she reapplies a full face each night before bed – the mother of North, two and Saint, five-months, admitted that like Charlotte, she too gave birth all glammed up.

“For my first baby I wore full makeup giving birth, but none for my second.”
