Everything to Know About the Kylie Cosmetics’ Nightmare on Elm Street Collection

Kylie Jenner’s latest launch for Kylie Cosmetics has the perfect Halloween twist.
The collection, which is available starting today, is inspired by Wes Craven’s classic slasher film “A Nightmare on Elm Street,” featuring blood splatters, Freddy Krueger’s silhouette and claw marks from his gloved hand covered with sharp razor blades on its packaging.
It will include a 12-color eyeshadow palette, a three-piece lip shine lacquer set, a lip and cheek jelly stain and a pair of fake lashes called “Kylashes.”

The collaboration was first announced last week when Jenner uploaded a video on Instagram of herself naked being covered in fake blood as the film’s famous theme song is being played — the nursery rhyme “One, Two, Freddy’s Coming for You.”
She then posted numerous photos of herself from the campaign, including a beige and red catsuit topped with long silver nails to mimic Krueger’s famous hand and one of herself nude as she sits in white plastic covered in fake blood.
“KYLIE X NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 🔪🩸 ahhh what a DREAM to collaborate with the icon of horror! reveal happening right now on my stories!” she wrote on her Instagram.

Blackpink’s Jennie, Kristen Stewart Snap Selfies at Chanel

Kristen Stewart rocked pink hair at the Chanel show, where she stealthily slipped into the front row a few minutes late.
“We kinda let the clothes inform the hair today. A tweed suit can be quite ladylike, so I wanted to find a way to turn it inside out,” said the actress, who always injects a little bit of punk into her wardrobe.
The star is fresh off the Met Gala, where she dressed as a modern Barbie, and the Venice Film Festival with the triumphant premiere of her Princess Diana film “Spencer.”
While missing the “so human and genuine and basically f–king lovely” Karl Lagerfeld, she said working with Chanel creative director Virginie Viard has been an invigorating experience.
“She’s kind of a rock star. I feel like in another life she was on stage with a microphone, even though she’s so shy and kind of understated. She doesn’t want to just continue this idea of French femininity and ease and effortless elegance, she tells a very dynamic story.” When a rendition of George Michael’s “Freedom! ’90” blasted at the end, Stewart said she felt “enlivened.”
“I was genuinely moved because people within this industry have a tendency to feel a little bit on
