Birthstone-Inspired Makeup Collections

KKW Beauty's Opalescent Collection is Inspired by the Opal

— October 22, 2020 — Fashion
KKW Beauty's 'OPALESCENT' collection has launched, offering a shimmering take on lipsticks, eye shadows and more. KKW Beauty is the Kim Kardashian-West-run makeup brand which appeals to both cosmetic consumers and fans of the reality TV show star. This particular line is set to offer all the glitz and glamor that's associated with Kardashian-West, presenting consumers with the opportunity to glow throughout the winter season.

The collection was released in light of the socialite's upcoming 40th birthday, and drew inspiration from her birth stone, the opal. In an official press release, Kardashion-West explains the line by stating "As I was developing the product range, I thought of my opal birthstone, because there are so many different colors that come from the stone based on the refraction of the light."
