Kim Kardashian at 33: How To Get Her Gotta-Have-It, Glam Squad Look

Happy birthday to Kim Kardashian. The reality TV star places 33 candles on her cake today. 

The new mom celebrates the occasion with an elaborate marriage proposal from baby-daddy Kanye West, which involved a flawless, 15-carat engagement ring, and a head-to-toe makeover. She lightened her locks with heavy blonde highlights following the birth of her daughter North West and recently lost about 40 el-bees. She attributes her slimmed down figure to following the Atkins diet and participating in regular pilates workouts, which burn up to 500 calories per session.

Light hair, camera, action!

Motherhood has also forced Kardashian to step up her cool quotient when it comes to hair and makeup. Although Kardashian gets more attention for her fashion sense (and sultry selfies), she spends a lot of time with her glam squad. They focus on lashes, lips and liner, and mostly gravitate toward a smoky eye/heavy liner/light lip look. However, she often sports a pop of red pout when she minimizes her eyeshadow. Plus, her long, flowing locks always look camera-ready with cascading curls or silky straightness--depending on her mood.
