Kylie Jenner has officially said farewell her most career-defining beauty asset. The 20-year-old makeup mogul took to Instagram this Sunday to share a series of snaps made memorable by a notably natural pout, one distinctly lacking the exaggerated plump that has characterized her look in recent years. After receiving a slew of comments ranging from compliments to questions, Jenner commented that she “…got rid of all my filler,” a statement accompanied by a wide-eyed emoji.
The move is a noteworthy one for Jenner, the youngest of the Kardashian clan, who famously confessed to getting lips fillers on a 2015 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Then came a trend embraced the world over, along with the subsequent mania for Jenner’s first round of Kylie Cosmetics, which centered on her ubiquitous (and often sold out) Lip Kits. “When I was insecure about my lips, I turned to makeup to help make me feel more confident,” Jenner told Vogue US in June, speaking about her signature bigger-is-better philosophy.
Now a mother to five-month-old mother Stormi and the founder of a booming beauty business on track to hit the billion dollar mark, Jenner is entering a powerful new phase of life—one, it seems, that embraces an increasingly ‘come-as-you-are’ attitude about everything from her lips to her sun-sprinkled freckles. Definitive proof that the kind of lit-from-within glow that comes with self-assurance outshines any man-made enhancement.
