The makeup guru also let fans in on a fun fact — and accident — that occurred with Kim. He shared, “I love using a pack of wet ones to fan/dry the setting spray. One time I accidentally slapped [Kim] on the face with it cause I was too close so be careful not to get too close!”

As for how to achieve the "natural glow," Mario revealed he uses Laura Mercier. “Candle glow concealer and highlighter in #1 and #2 under the eyes, on forehead, bridge of nose and chin,” he explained. “Face illuminator in Addiction on cheek bones and Devotion on bridge of nose, chin and Cupid's bow” — and as Kim said, "there you have it!"
