Back in middle school, swiping your mother’s too-thick foundation (that didn’t even match your skintone) was all the rage.
If she had mascara, blush/bronzer and dark lipstick, even better!
Once applied in private, you’d walk downstairs to get ready to go out with your friends.
Then, it happens.
Your mother sees your face. She looks horrified.
You hear the words “trollop, “floozy” and “street walker” being thrown around and suddenly, you feel you may have overdone it with the rouge.
Caitlyn Jenner tried very hard to impart this lesson of “less is more” on her youngest child, Kylie Jenner on a 2009 episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians when Kylie came out of the house wearing black eye-liner, blush and red lipstick.
Alas, it fell on deaf ears.
And here we are, nodding our heads and giggling a little (it’s funny. We can’t help it) at this meme from Betches’ Instagram, which has inspired a gallery rattling off 11 instances of Kylie, 18, looking older than Kendall Jenner, 20.
Less Is More. More Is Just…More
Kendall: “I used a pop of red lipstick, but scaled back on the eye shadow.” Kylie: “I don’t know what that means.”
