Less is more when it comes to makeup, at least according to Kylie Jenner.

The reality-television star and Kylie Cosmetics founder recently filmed her makeup routine for an episode of Vogue's Beauty Secrets series that was published on Thursday.

After saying she would be showing her "classic Kylie glam" during the episode, Jenner noted that she's changed her look in recent years. 

"I think that I'm into the more natural skin," she told Vogue. "I wear a lot less but I've accomplished the same, snatched look."

When applying her foundation, for example, Jenner used a small amount of product and applied it with her hands for a more "intimate experience."

"My foundation just looks different," she said. "I feel way more natural. I like how it blends into my skin a lot better."

She also noted that she doesn't wear makeup every day, and prefers to let her skin breathe when she can.

"I feel like the majority of the time, I'm not wearing makeup because I always have an event or photo shoot," she said.

During the video, Jenner specifically pointed out her contour application, which she said is "less harsh" than in the past, and her powder technique.

"I remember actually watching my last Vogue video," she said. "The amount of powder that I used is just unreal."

Jenner is widely known for wearing a heavy, going-out glam look. It often includes thick eyebrows, dramatic lashes, sharp contour, and over-lined lips with matte lipstick on top.

Though her routine has since evolved, according to Jenner, one thing has stayed the same.

"I love doing my own makeup because it's just very therapeutic for me," she said. "I love to zone out."
