Getting glam like Kim Kardashian doesn't come cheap — and she's not denying it.
The SKIMS mogul, 44, opened up about her beauty expenses during the Oct. 15 episode of Call Her Daddy, admitting that her annual glam routine could run up to seven figures. "Well ... a lot," Kardashian replied when host Alex Cooper asked how much she spends on her hair and makeup. After pausing to think, she added, "It could be a million dollars."
Still, the reality star noted that she doesn't always pay out of pocket. "If I'm filming my show [The Kardashians], then they pay for it," she said. "If I'm working, then they pay for it. So I try to get it all paid for so that I don't personally have to pay for it." Cooper called that a "smart" move, but Kardashian laughed, adding as she ran her fingers through her hair, "This hair isn't cheap."
When pressed further, Cooper joked that the total might be higher — "Maybe [$5 million]," she guessed — but Kardashian insisted, "Not five. Below five. Maybe one." She admitted that she doesn't have "a concept of what certain simple things cost," saying, "I'd like to know a little bit more about what a milk carton costs."
Her glam team includes longtime collaborators hairstylist Chris Appleton and makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, who have helped craft her signature red-carpet looks for years. Recently, Kardashian credited Appleton and Raoul Alejandre for her "Paris glam" at Paris Fashion Week, where she debuted a chic dark pixie-cut wig and glittery makeup look.
Beyond her beauty routine, Kardashian follows a disciplined fitness regimen that she describes as her form of therapy. She works out daily with her personal trainer, Melissa Alcantara, focusing on strength training, cardio, and Pilates to maintain her toned physique. The mother of four also relies on Pilates sessions to improve flexibility and relieve back tension, ensuring her workout routine balances intensity with recovery.
From luxury facials and spray tans to hours spent in the glam chair, Kardashian knows perfection comes with a price. As she quipped on Call Her Daddy: "I should know this, actually. This hair isn't cheap."
