Kim Kardashian has revealed all the products that she churns through, and the consequent expense of her everyday beauty routine.

Kim revealed the vast array of beauty products required to keep her looking the way she does – not even for special occasions but just for basic maintenance!

“I feel really blessed because I genuinely love the process of getting my hair and makeup done,” Kim told beauty blog Into the Gloss in the interview where she divulged all of her favourite products.

“Even beyond that, I just love to take care of my skin. I’m always researching different products, and I always try so many different things. I don’t just stick to one face wash or moisturizer.”

With it recently being revealed that Kim even employs a make-up artist solely for her boobs, it’s little surprise that she’ll do anything to keep look fabulous at all times.

Kim’s not the only one who spends a fortune to look like her either – with one of her admiring young male fans dropping over $190k on surgery, fashion and beauty products in an attempt to replicate her look.

Another female fan has spent over $36k on surgery to model herself after Kim.

What was clear from Kim’s beauty interview though is that she sure loves her products – something that the former Kardashian housekeepers rather disapprove of, as they revealed “Kim’s bedroom and bathroom were beyond filthy at all times”.

The Kardashian girls reportedly ditch their ubiquitous false eyelashes all over the house too. “They’re on coffee tables, in the bathroom… even on the kitchen counter,” the housekeepers revealed.

Nonetheless, if you want to get in on Kim’s cosmetic circus, you can – provided you have a small fortune to spare!

Kardashian Beauty Cabana Bronze Matte Bronzer – $21 at Mecca Cosmetica – “I love our bronzer in Cabana Bronze.” l

Eyebrow shaping at Anastasia in Beverly Hills $63.50 (US $50) “I look so different when I have my eyebrows done. Anastasia Soare does my brows. For two years she was asking me if she could do them, and I was like, ‘No, I don’t need it,’ because I would just do it myself. But then I let her, and it changed my life—my whole face looked different.”

Tracie Martyn Shakti Resculpting Body Cream – $155 at Net-a-Porter. “I went to this one facialist in New York, Tracie Martyn, and she has one which is rose-scented, so of course I love it.” (for when shapewear just isn’t enough!)

Kim also revealed that she gets a blowout every five days(min $60 for a deluxe blow dry) I don’t wash it every day. We start out with a blowout on day one, then we go into a messier vibe the next day, and then we flat iron it and do a really sleek look on day three since that requires a little oil in the hair. Day four could be a slicked-back ponytail, and on the fifth day is when you wash it.”
