What Happened To Kylie's Face? | Surgery or just bad lighting?

I couldnt handle being famous and having strangers all over the world speculate over my eye bags. 😂

I think people are so used to seeing her filtered pictures on instagram and this is her real face. She has had so much done that has definitely aged her but I think this reaction is what happens when everyone is used to seeing the fake versions. It's sad she has felt the need to change herself so much.

♥️ It was Khloe who overheard Kris telling one of her friends when Khloe was a kid, around 8 years old, that Khloe will need a nose job when she’s older. Khloe said it on the 1st season of KUWTK’s Kris, apologised to Khloe in the episode.

I truly love your kindness and refusal to play into the cheap snark that is a plague. You and James have changed and grown, but your decency and humanity seem to deepen. Thank you❤️

i feel bad for her BUT she still chose to get job done and acting like she didn't, holding girls to unattainable standards. sad

I feel so bad for some celebrities who have a phobia about aging. However, I love the way Jamie Lee Curtis looks. She may be aging but, she looks gorgeous! A friend of mine says “Growing older is a gift that is denied to many.”

Kylie Jenner is 26 years old. It's her money, she can do whatever she wants, but she doesn't look her age anymore. Also for someone who owns 44% of a beauty company with a young demographic, it's easy to send the wrong message.

I feel so badly for these women who are caught up in this need for the "perfect" version of themselves. I'm 61, grandmother of 5, and I'm grateful I get to age naturally. I really respect the way you handled this video, Robert. I learned so much about lighting etc. Years ago, I kept noticing my face looked ghost-like in pictures, only to realize it was my powder causing it. There are so seriously scary pictures of me from back then!!

I'm not even a big makeup person, but I seriously love your channel because of the unbiased, unhyped videos that are free of all the silly dramatics when addressing different topics, reviews, etc. I admire the fact that you really try to take into account all sides and give your straight forward opinion. More influencers should take note.

I think that people just forget how real people look like and after comparing someone irl with their heavily filtered photos they freak out and start making dumb assumptions. It’s the same situation when celebs are seen without a makeup. We all should go out and touch the freaking grass more often.

My under eyes naturally always look like hers here. Yesh, I hope people don't think I look like crap when I leave the house 😮😊 I like the lighting demo. It's super helpful!

Me just now looking in the mirror and seeing the same thing 😂 I haven’t had fillers or anything, I just get that puffiness shape when I’m tired…which is all the time tbh! Even my mom said as a kid, if she saw that puffiness under my eyes she’d put me down for a nap 😅 What’s so sad, is how people complain when she ‘looks perfect’ that it’s ‘fake’ cause she’s had so much work done blablabla and now they are like ‘oh she doesn’t look perfect…’ if I was Kylie I’d be booking in to get this ‘fixed’ because of all the attention a tiny ‘flaw’ got and even me, I have this too, it makes me feel I should ‘fix it’ it’s just so frustrating.

Kylie’s been getting work done since she was 16, and sometimes I feel bad for her bc she was clearly groomed into a lifestyle by her own family to have such an unhealthy relationship with her body image, but i also cant really blame ppl for over analyzing how she looks, she and her family built an entire empire by selling an unrealistic version of themselves , she and her family set this precedent for unrealistic beauty standards by continually lying about the work they get done, so when ppl actually see them without the filters, ofc ppl are gonna look at them like wtf happened to your face, when it’s probably just how their real faces look, it’s kinda poetic in a way how they were the ones spearheading the beauty standard and now they’re the victims of the standard that they set, not in a sympathetic way bc they’re still profiting off it, it’s just ironic

The eye shadow is DELIVERING today! Absolutely love it. I don’t think she looks completely different but do think she’s had something done, maybe some filler migration which is unfortunate but I feel like I’m seeing it more often? Granted I also have two small kids and look like I’ve been in hand to hand combat with these dark circles some days 😅

I think that Kylie has aged herself significantly with these facial procedures. To me, she looks 10 years older. But I understand the pressure to get them done due to her massive exposure to the world since the age of 13. It’s sad to hear that even her mother was judging her. However, I do think the Jenner/Kardashian family is constantly filtering and editing their photos so as far as we all know this is how she normally looks. So I wish people would stop comparing themselves to a family that doesn’t live in reality.

I’m a photographer and this is such an important demonstration. So many ppl are ignorant to how photos can look SO different from real life

Robert’s eye look is slaying in this video 🥰

Today i saw a couple local FB posts about a missing teen. The police posted what i assume was a realistic photo. The mom posted another set of photos obviously from the teen's filtered online selfies. Totally unrecognizable. You would be unable to spot that kid on the street from her filtered photos.

that tiktok doctor who said that puffy under eyes is "not a normal sign of aging" is completely wrong. it's absolutely a very common sign of aging. for some people, aging in this way does happen early, and it can potentially be exaggerated from filler or botox, but i know people in real life who have NO cosmetic procedures and they have under eye puffiness that looks exactly like this. it can also happen from various illnesses, medications, and just general tiredness or stress. even i get puffy under eye bags sometimes if i cry a lot the night before lol, i can't believe the audacity that it MUST be a botched cosmetic treatment and not just a human being having an off day.

I get those little indents when I'm tired. Crazy to think that we aren't allowed to have any texture on our faces now

I've got the same thing on my face, and I've never had any fillers in my life. It's more visible on my right side, and my 10 y.o. kid has a similar puffiness under her right eye, too. So genetics absolutely can look like this.

I think its just a combination of a few things. The lighting, some effects of cosmetic surgery and the general aging of her face. Ppl have to remember that kylie isnt 18 anymore and she has had 2 kids, her face is settling and changing so she may look a bit different but i mostly think the lighting is the main problem

I’m so happy you made this video. I’ve been waiting for someone to do this. I genuinely think due to social media, edited photos, and just a lack of knowledge, people don’t know what real humans look like anymore.

I really love when you do commentary and give actual examples of the situation you are talking about, such as how you showed how much lighting can change your look. It's actually super helpful, and also super cool to see-

Loving the eye look!!! The family filter their photos so much. When it comes to seeing them in REAL life..of course they will look totally different!!! Robert's Reaction channel...It's so much fun!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤 xxxxxx

What you said about lighting makes so much sense - and the demonstration really was enlightening. You are such a good teacher, Robert!! Source: retired educator 😊

I really appreciate you taking the time to talk about lighting and for being objective. I don’t care to keep up with that family and all, but I do also appreciate that you’re not coming from a place of hate as many others do. Thank you💜

im so glad you did this video & showed the lighting changes bc while I am SURE a ton of celeb face changes are due to surgery/fillers, it seems SO OBVIOUS to me when it’s just bad lighting and that’s what my first thought was when I saw these videos of Kylie! Ur content is so on point (as usual)

Having a terrible day and have been binge watching your videos. Thanks 🥹

This was a great video, Robert. You gave Kylie so much grace while still acknowledging some of the professionals in different industries have their input. Absolutely great video.

I feel like kylie launched her her makeup business on lying about not having surgery to get everyone to buy her lip kits, I think there needs to be much more transparency when selling products!!

omg Robert LIVING for this lighting tutorial. Your makeup looks so beautiful that it’s very editorial! 🎉

I barely know anything about makeup, lighting, or Kylie... but to me it just looks like it's part of her face. Something like, how you said, when there is a flash it eliminates the shadows so we don't see it in pictures usually. Anyway, she's so pretty and I wish her the best.

I appreciate the unbiased approach to your analyses :) gosh, not sure how much of it is unflattering light but she looks so much older than 26

I love you showing us how lighting affects everything! Your videos are so informative and enjoyable!

I actually think she is progressively getting her face fillers dissolved, including cheeks and indeed fully agree her younger face features are coming back now that the rest is less filled. She had an insta story few days after this event and its clear her face is less swollen than usual. People hate too much she is just starting to look like a normal person again with very normal facial features. Almost nobody has smooth undereye naturally 🤷🏻‍♀️

The eyeshadow is stunning!!!! Excited for a Monday night video ✨

Your eye looks always SLAY…. Also love how you always bring a fair point of view to these videos

Thank you Robert for actual showing and teaching the difference in lighting

Robert, you always bring such an intelligent and thoughtful take to these issues! Thank you!💖💖💖

Once again so grateful for your way of explaining everything so understandably! Your examples with lighting really made me understand it so much better. Thank you so much! 😍

This video was so educational. Thank you, Robert! I knew what impact lighting can have but seeing it visualised like that in your video definitely helped a lot to fully understand what it can actually do (and maybe I also learned to not look at myself in bad lighting and try to find all my ‘signs of aging’). Your content is worth its weight in gold 🖤

Absolutely love your transformative content. Especially when you got your makeup wet and had the light manipulating the shadows. Your input is so educational and you did well to be transparent about your techniques and previous filler experience. I’ve had filler once in my smile lines and I didn’t like the results. I am glad it eventually went away and now I’m feeling way more confident in the skin I’m in. Thanks for you content Robert! Huge fan ❤❤❤

The purple/green eyeshadow look is stunning!

Per the drs that are commenting on this, it's supposedly her filler sinking due to gravity.

I bloody love your videos! I love that you turn all the lights off and show what you’re saying instead of just speculating that she may have done something

I love the light demonstration. This was fantastic and informative. And it makes me feel so better about my under eye area!

After listening to this whole video-makeup truly is ART. I wish I could see the art in how light hits the face, etc! I’m one of those who can’t grab that concept, like an artist. I always wish I could, it takes so much talent!

Thank you for being so thorough in your explanation. It’s so true about how the lighting is hitting her face in all the wrong ways. I can’t imagine leaving the house only when a team of people have made me up, just to be in poor lighting. That has to suck sometimes.

Im obsessed with your eye color combo! Stunning as always. 🖤

I'm so glad you talked about this. I have similar shadowing in my undereyes, and you speaking on this makes me feel less weird/alone! Thank you kindly! ❤

Side comment: I LOVE your scar and how you sometimes put a bright pink or white stripe of make up on it. It's part of your identity and you've embraced it and make it stand out for a look sometimes and I love that. I love unusual make up and jewelry and have even though about shaving a part of my brow off just to put a hot blue line through it. I just love that you don't feel the need to blend it in or hide it. That's beautiful to me.

Thank you Robert for teaching us about lighting ❤ I didn't know some of what you showed ✨️

Your eye shadow is beautiful! I love the color scheme! Fascinating episode! Great demonstration on lighting 👍

I love how you‘ve managed to be so objective and just deliver possible logical reasons to why lighting can in fact play a role in all of this. Btw, love the eyeshadow on you, Robert. Georgous colours 💚💜

The eye shadow color combination is chefs kiss 🤌🏼 love it!

I think this was a great video and your eye shadow is FIRE 🔥

Such a detailed overview of something that's probably just overblown by social media. I love how you go over lighting and techniques that can blur or accentuate details of the face. Love your videos. When I was getting into makeup again and getting overwhelmed with Beauty RU-vid, I picked up a book about color theory and it was so helpful to learn about color and lighting. I was less carried away by product recommendations because I felt like I understood the basics of makeup theory. Your videos are an extension of my quick library research into makeup and much appreciated. ❤

Great that you and your brother highlight different and interesting perspectives of things like this… I understand that people like to speculate/discuss surgery and cosmetic procedures but there is so much more going on behind the scenes, like the effect of light on surfaces incl. skincare and makeup that I never even thought about!

Love your videos! You're the best. So funny and genuine.

It seems like people just love jumping to the worst or most dramatic explanation first. I love how you break everything down!

Omg, this is my new favorite eyeshadow! You look great...like always.

BEST VIDEO DONE of breaking this topic down and well executed explanation!!!! I’m gonna share it everywhere!! 🖤🖤🖤

I'm so impressed by the effect lights have on how someone looks. I intuitively know that I look good if I take a selfie in front of a window, instead of the dark bathroom with no windows. But what fascinates me is the way how we always look at ourselves through the lens of a camera in today's age, when other people look at us in real life. Maybe that's just me, but when I do a makeup look I like, I take selfies, look at them and think "Hmm, I look good today.". But maybe I don't look that good to other people. And maybe I looked better to them yesterday when I wore lighter makeup that doesn't look that good on camera. This just hit me. 😅

👏 LIGHT 👏 IS 👏 EVERYTHING 👏 i love this video

I have been seeing the videos time out this and ignoring them everywhere. Thank you so much for your real approach❤🎉

This was soooooo interesting about the lighting, & matte versus shiny, thank you for showing the example on yourself Robert, it really made it all make sense. Amazing video as always ❤❤❤

She looks the same to me, maybe just tired. But also, your hairstyle can definitely change the way your face looks, in my opinion.

this feature is normal for a lot of people and good lighting has altered people’s perceived perfection. hence why a NORMAL feature is being scrutinized just because it’s on someone that people PERCEIVE should be perfect. when i was first learning to do makeup, my makeup would accentuate my malar mounds and it was difficult to navigate because at the time no one really talked about it and the popular style of makeup didn’t take that into account, so i think this video is really helpful and an accessible resource to people who don’t always exist in perfect lighting (everyone).

Girl you are just pumping out videos right now and im living for it

Fabulous video Robert. Thank you. 🙏 I can always rely on you for a totally balanced perspective. Love your channel. ❤😊❤

Stephanie Lange just done an awesome video talking about this. I was wondering when id see your beautiful self covering this as its right up your latest content alley. Loving the makeup commentary content btw. With the pinned comment so obnoxious, just thought id tell you that ❤

My opinion is that I watched this video for Robert and the educational aspect. I general I don’t care about anyone’s filler or speculating what they’ve gotten done or not.

Absolutely loved the way you demonstrated and explained how lighting affects the planes on people's faces! ❤ So educational. I know that's common sense for other people but to see it from, and explained by, a makeup artist, I just loved that. Thank you Robert 🩷

Hello voice of reason! Brilliant explanations and points! Thank you for this visual demonstration of lighting! Cheers 😊

It's just how she looks without all the filter effects we are used to seeing. A beautiful twenty something. I just wish that 'people' would raise up other people rather than pull them down 😐 Anyhoo my evening is complete now that Robert has uploaded and I'm here for that MUA eye look 😍

Im a photographer who pays a lot of attention to light. Different lighting can change a lot about a face. Also! Its sad when ppl are so afraid of wrinkles. I love when ppl have a lot of face texture and just all together interesting facial features. Theyre my favourite to photograph

Thank you Robert for explaining lighting! Totally makes sense!

I’ve watched at least 3 videos about this Kylie situation and yours is the only one where I’ve actually learned something very useful omg thank you.

I do have to wonder what the aging effects are if you get fillers and plastic surgery so young. Usually filler is to erase/ fill wrinkles or other things that come from aging. What happens when you do it when there is nothing there. It just seems like it would stretch out the skin rather than filling what was stretched out.

I can't believe someone so naturally beautiful and Rich and powerful be so self-conscious to destroy her whole face to please people is insane

I’m really liking your subtle eye shadow look!It’s giving watercolor vibes. ❤

You're a natural teacher, Robert. Love it!🖤

Yay! I’m so early! Happy Monday Robert! (As happy as a Monday can be 😩) puffy eyeeeee! 😂 I got the tear trough filler a long time ago (never again)-I looked like Rocky after he fought Apollo in the first movie 🤦🏼‍♀️

I think her issue is that she just gets filler too much. They say you need to go every 4 months, but you don’t. You should wait longer in between sessions.

I ❤ how you showed us with the lighting and makeup the difference it makes on how you look.

I am in love with your eye shadow today!!! I'm from New Orleans, La and that look is such a Mardi Gras look!

What about watch the video before commenting?? So RUDE ✋ If you HAD, you would’ve heard Robert defending Kylie and educating (as professional MUAs do!) everyone on what a huge difference lighting makes. Robert is generous enough to share his knowledge with those who watch his channels and actually care to LEARN something about makeup, techniques, lighting, etc. thank you Robert! We appreciate you. Your response to this troll was perfection! This is why I will continue to watch every single video on both channels and support you in any way I can 💜🖤 Have a great week. Hugs! 💜🖤

I truly love your videos. I always look at things new after watching! Thanks!

Your eye makeup looks AMAZING in this video!! Makes your eyes look pink💓

Hi Robert! I abolutely agree. However, the Kardasians do invite this sort of attention. My son was born without tear ducts, so he became the youngest patient to have reconstructive surgery with what seemed like miles of tubing inside his face. BTW it was successful in the end. This is a true case of what plastic surgery can do inconjunction with an ENT specialist and a neurosurgeon. Nuff said. Have a lovely evening! 😊

When you start altering your face at the age of 17, it’s bound to have an impact later on. God knows why she chose to interfere with her lovely face at such a young age

Robert, you're so good at what you do. You're knowledgeable about many things but still admit you don't know everything; you're kind; you address situations, controversies, 'and drama' with such a balanced outlook; You don't succomb to hype or sensationalize things for views - you earn them with your wit, expertise, and humility. I'm so glad RU-vid threw your channel in my direction!

Thanks to you I understand the power of lighting! I can finally understand how lighting affects make up.

Robert for the win! I immediately looked up her old photos because that kinda chunky space on her face- it’s a natural occurrence of the face! Shout out to you!

agree what you said, it's nobody's business on what people do with their bodies.

Great and educational video, Robert!

Thank you! You’re the voice of reason.

I think the biggest issue and the reason that people may jump on her appearance more often is because of the frequent lying and unattainable standards that her and her family set with their lies/surgery. Its honesty just an endless cycle where the kardashian/jenners have serious body dysmorphia and go further and further to maintain a certain appearance, utimatley causing more scrutiny on their, at this point hyper unrealistic, physical attributes... making them want to keep going with surgeries.
