She's an effortless beauty! As Kendall Jenner turns 21, FEMAIL details the keys to nailing the catwalk queen's signature hair and make-up style
- Today is Kendall Jenner's birthday
- FEMAIL rounds up her best beauty looks and shares how to copy her signature hair and make-up style
Kendall Jenner is arguably the most low-maintenance Kardashian when it comes to beauty.
She's not afraid to walk out of the house without make-up on and when she does get made-up, it doesn't look like it took three hours to do.
Her effortless look doesn't make her any less of a beauty icon than her contour-loving sisters, however. She's a spokesmodel for Estee Lauder and has collaborated on products for the brand's younger, sister line, the Estee Edit. And we love that while we might not have her genes, her signature looks don't require a glam squad to recreate on ourselves.
In honor of her 21st birthday, we rounded up the five tenets of Kendall Jenner's beauty style. Read on to get inspired!
Dress up a casual look with a statement lip.
Whether she's running errands or sitting courtside at a Lakers game, Kendall likes to elevate her relaxed, model off-duty style with a swipe of red lipstick.
She's a big fan of the matte poppy orange shade she created for Estee Lauder called Restless. The color was sadly limited edition, but to get Kendall's trademark fiery pout, try the brand's similar Pure Color Envy Matte Sculpting Lipstick in Volatile.

But dress down a statement-making look with a casual hairstyle.
Even when she trades her skinny jeans and crop tops for head-turning gowns, Kendall still keeps it cool with a laid-back hairstyle.
Loose, low or high textured ponytails and messy topknots (see below) are her go-tos.
It's all about balance: Even when she's all dolled up on the red carpet, the birthday girl stays true to her style with a relaxed hair look
Never underestimate the power of a brown smoky eye.
When helping to create an eyeshadow palette for the Estee Edit, Kendall chose shades that she herself loves to wear.
'I love a good, natural brown smoky eye, so there’s a good amount of browns in [the palette],' the 21-year-old told byrdie.com ahead of the product's early 2016 release.
Brown is the new black: The second youngest Kardashian sister prefers a soft brown smoky eye over an intense, dark one.
When you're bored with your look, just add bangs.
But not blunt, straight-across bangs; Kendall prefers a piece-y layered look.
As she often demonstrates, the edgy fringe style pairs perfectly with '90s-inspired slip dresses and chokers.
Fringe is in: Unlike her sister Kylie, Kendall doesn't often experiment with wigs. She does, however, like to change things up with faux bangs
Winged liner adds instant drama to a neutral make-up look - just make sure each eye is even.
To punctuate her subtle eye make-up, Kendall is all about a clean cat-eye.
'I’m a perfectionist. If someone is doing my eyeliner, it has to be exactly the same on both sides, super-straight,' she told People last year.
The eyes have it: The model admitted to being very particular about her winged eyeliner
