    The Kardashians are known for many things, but pretty high up on the list—perhaps right after selfies—is their love of makeup. This entire crew has been one step ahead of the makeup game for a while now (hi, Kylie Cosmetics!), and more often than not they're face beat is 🙌. But sometimes one of the Kardashians will step out without a drop of makeup, an occurrence almost as rare as unicorns.

    Kendall typically goes for a makeup-light look most of the time, but when she *does* wear a full face, she almost immediately morphs into Kim.

    This throwback photo of Khloe in no makeup is a) lovely, and b) shows the evolution of her brows.

    Somehow, her face manages to look contoured even when makeup free, which we can only assume is #sorcery.

    And finally, even the Kardashian's resident momager has been known to ditch her contour in favor of a fresh face.
