So This Is Why Kourtney Kardashian Looks So Young

If we rewind a few years, beauty junkies can clearly remember when Kim Kardashian allowed cameras to follow her into a blood-facial session on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. While plenty of us were horrified, many were left intrigued. The beauty treatment is meant to promote elasticity and boost collagen production for younger-looking skin, and is said to make it easier for your skin to absorb products.

Kourtney, who’s the eldest Kardashian at 38 years old, is the next in the family to undergo a micro-needling (“vampire”) facial. Of course, she documented the whole ordeal on Snapchat, in true Kardashian form. She headed to Dr. Jason Diamond in Beverly Hills for the procedure, and explained that he’d be taking her own blood and putting it back into her skin. While it’s surely not for the faint of heart, skincare junkies can try it out for themselves (with a trained professional, of course). Watch Kourtney’s session in the clips below.
