Kendall Jenner's 19th year is already getting off to a very good start indeed.
Less than two weeks after celebrating her birthday, the star made a very big announcement on Saturday that surely cements her status as one of the most in-demand up-and-coming models of her time.
Taking to social media, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star revealed that she has been named the new face of cosmetics giant Estée Lauder.
According to Vogue.com, the gorgeous brunette has known for some time of the deal that will land her face in magazine print ads and TV commercials all over the world.
Kendall received word backstage during the Sonia Rykiel show at Paris Fashion Week on September 29 and has done a stellar job keeping such huge news secret for more than a month since.
The website also reveals that as part of the company's new 360-degree marketing campaign, they chose Kendall in part due to her huge social media following and made the decision that she would announce her appointment on Twitter and Instagram.
The official video features some cute flashback video footage from Kendall's childhood, seen trying on mom Kris Jenner's make-up.
'The first time I wore make-up, I was a little girl and my mom was filming me, and I'm like, "Mom, I did my make-up, do you like it?"' she explains of the clip.
She continues, clearly still in shock and awe: 'To think back to me being a young kid going through my mom's make-up drawer, playing with Estée Lauder, and flip to now and I'm a part of this family...'
