Kim Kardashian took to Instagram on Wednesday to promote the new nude-toned lip products from her makeup brand SKKN by Kim.
The reality TV star, 43 — whose ex-husband Kanye West and his new wife Bianca Censori are facing backlash — uploaded two sultry photos of herself touching up her lipstick in her car’s rearview mirror.
She looked fully done up with smokey eye makeup, a bronzed complexion and stick straight hair.
Kim jokingly urged fans to: ‘Keep your friends close and your Lip Liner closer’
She then revealed the go-to lip liner and lipstick shades she uses from her revamped beauty brand.

‘I’m wearing @skkn Lip Liner in NUDE 12, Soft Matte Lip Color in NUDE 06,’ the mother-of-four wrote.
She added that she used the SKKN by Kim ‘Classic Mattes Eyeshadow Palette’ to achieve her signature eye makeup.
Kim initially announced that she would be launching SKKN By Kim two years ago and released its first set of products, which included various skincare-related offerings, in June of 2022.
The brand originally started off as a skincare-only line but recently expanded into makeup as well with the launch of lip liners, lipsticks and an eyeshadow palette.
The reality television mainstay previously operated a cosmetics company, KKW Beauty, from 2017 until July of 2021, though she revealed she would be returning to releasing makeup in January with SKKN by Kim.
She issued a statement and expressed via Byrdie that she wanted to combine her interests in cosmetics and skincare with her new set of items.
The television figure also admitted that she had ‘recently been taking a skin-first approach towards my beauty routine.’
Kim went on to speak about what she wanted to achieve with her brand’s new line.
‘In developing Skkn By Kim Makeup, my goal was not only to create universally flattering cosmetic essentials but also to ensure that our products are clean, hydrating, comfortable, and help improve the look and feel of skin,’ she said.
She concluded by stating that her company’s new products were the result of several years of her own observations of figures from the cosmetics world.
‘Our makeup was inspired by the beauty secrets I’ve gathered from industry experts over the years,’ she said.

The billionaire brand-owner shocked fans earlier this week when she made a rare makeup-free appearance on social media.
She did so in images shared by Mugler that showed her modeling a corseted bodysuit by the French fashion house.
Mugler is known for creating high end tight fitting looks inspired by corseting and Kim stood in a room with Louis XIV furnishings and art adding to the idea the body suit was inspired by the undergarments 18th century women wore under their hoop skirts.
She posed barefoot and her dark brown hair was pulled back in a bun.
Instead of rocking fake lashes, dramatic eyeshadow and glossy nude lips, Kim embraced her natural face.
Kim’s low-key social media posts come amid a media firestorm surrounding her husband Kanye West and his new wife Bianca Censori in Paris, France this week.
Bianca has paraded around the world with Kanye in barely-there looks since they tied the knot in 2022.
But the couple have angered French citizens after Bianca stepped out last night wearing ‘no underwear’ with see-through stockings.
She did not attempt to hide her bare backside or her exposed private areas as she climbed out of an SUV with Kanye and walked the public sidewalk.
It was later revealed that although Bianca — who could’ve faced legal consequences for indecent exposure — went underwear free on the outing, she wasn’t without any covering.

The uncensored photos obtained by MailOnline show that Bianca actually had a thin strip of flesh colored material, secured to her genitals to create a smooth appearance.
These types of coverings are typically used on Hollywood movie and TV sets in order to protect the actors’ modesty during intimate scenes.
The shocking outing occurred just weeks after insiders claimed to DailyMail.com that Kim warned Kanye to tell Bianca to ‘cover up’ around their children.
Kim and Kanye — who finalized their divorce just weeks before he married Bianca — share North, 10, Saint, eight, Chicago, six, and Psalm, four.
Kim is said to have an ‘amicable’ relationship with Bianca but the risqué fashion in front of the kids has become an issue for her.
‘Kim instructed Kanye to never let Bianca dress like that around their kids,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively.
‘She is truly surprised that Kanye would let his wife leave the house like that.’
It appears that Bianca got the message as she’s toned down her style while in the presence of Kim and Kanye’s kids.
Unlike Bianca’s raunchy wardrobe, Kim was asked to change her outfits if Kanye felt she was showing too much skin, with the artist heavily influencing her fashion choices during their seven-year marriage.

‘Kanye did the same thing he is doing with Bianca to Kim throughout heir marriage,’ DailyMail.com’s source continued. ‘The difference is that when Kanye dressed Kim, he was respected as a person – as an artist.
‘Unfortunately, Kim knows what Bianca is going through – but she feels Bianca should have known what she was getting into.’
Kim filed for divorce in February 2021 just before what would have been the pair’s seventh wedding anniversary.
Kardashian, who was represented by divorce attorney Laura Wasser, was declared legally single March 2022 while in the midst of a hot and heavy romance with now-ex boyfriend SNL alum Pete Davidson.
In November 2022, Kim and Kanye’s divorce was finalized, with Kanye agreeing to pay $200,000 a month in child support and equal custody.
Kanye married Yeezy architect Bianca in January 2023 in what was thought a non-legal wedding as it appeared they did not file a marriage certificate.
However in mid-October 2023, it was reported that they did in fact get legally married and that it took place last year due to ‘religious reasons,’ per Us Weekly.
