Kim Kardashian can’t help but gush over her mother’s recent transformation.
On Sunday, June 1, the SKIMS founder took to social media to share her love of Kris Jenner‘s new look via her Instagram Story.
In the since-expired Story, Kardashian posted a photo of longtime family friend and celebrity hairstylist, Chris Appleton.
In the photo, Appleton posed on the carpet for NETFLIX TUDUM 2025: THE LIVE EVENT at The Kia Forum on May 31, 2025 in Inglewood, Calif. He kept his outfit laid back for the occasion, wearing leather pants with a simple white T-shirt that read, “I’ll have what Kris Jenner is having” in capitalized black letters.
In Kardashian’s story, she shared exactly how she felt regarding the statement on Appleton’s shirt. She replied, “@chrisappleton1 me too babe!!!”

The SKIMS founder’s response — as well as Appleton’s t-shirt — comes after PEOPLE confirmed that the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch has undergone aesthetic enhancements from plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Levine in New York City. The confirmation arrived after fans of the reality television star noticed how refreshed she looked while attending Lauren Sánchez’s star-studded bachelorette party in Paris last month.
While neither Jenner nor Levine have confirmed what type of treatment she received, the doctor’s website explains that he “specializes in natural-looking enhancements of the face, breasts, and body.” Procedures that Levine performs often include breast augmentations, tummy tucks and facelifts, the latter of which can lead to a rejuvenated appearance due to it addressing jowls, sagging skin and creasing on the face.

Jenner, meanwhile, has opened up about some of the past work that she has has done. She notably had an earlobe reduction, which was a plot line for an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
“All I want is just cute ears. Ever since Kim made a comment about my ears I’ve always wondered and now I am looking in the mirror obsessively like, ‘Are they too big?’” she said during the episode. “I learned that your nose and your ears keep growing your whole life. I think that the decision to do something about my ever-changing ears is suddenly a priority.”
Jenner also confirmed in 2019 that she loves Botox — and even gives friends and family gift cards so they can get it done, too.

“It’s a one-stop shop for me,” she told PEOPLE at the time. “And who doesn’t love Botox? For me, it’s been really great. If you’re responsible, and you talk to your doctor, I think it works. It’s something that I’ve been using for a long time.”
