"The Kardashians" star Kylie Jenner sat down with Jennifer Lawrence for a heartwarming interview and opened up on being a mom and a mogul.
The mother-of-two also addressed the plastic surgery rumors despite admitting she has gone under the knife a few times in the past and even expressed her regret over a particular procedure.
Kylie Jenner Has Had Enough With The Comparison Talks About Her Body
Jenner was an open book in her latest interview with long-term Kardashian fan Lawrence and spoke about life in the spotlight and navigating business and motherhood. The 26-year-old looked super glam as she posed in different jaw-dropping outfits, including matching white lingerie paired with a metallic skirt and animal print boots.
Jenner styled her brunette hair in a side-swept wavy do and soft red lips as she held a yellow wheelbarrow, spilling the soapy content on the floor. For the cover, the fashion icon looked iconic in a bikini top and leather pants ensemble that showed off her toned midsection.
Lawrence could not hide her excitement to interview Jenner as she asked if anything inspired her, to which Jenner replied, "My mom inspires me, my family inspires me, and I'm trying to think of what else."

The two icons then moved to the big question surrounding Jenner's appearance, as the Kylie Cosmetics founder has always been at the center of such discussions. Jenner has opened up about getting lip fillers in the past and noted the differences in her face now that she's older.
"I did end up getting lip fillers, but it's also the same with me. I'll see before and after photos when I'm 12 years old versus 26, and my eyebrows are filled differently. I have contour on," said the mogul as they both affirmed the magical powers of makeup.
The reality star did not stop there as she also replied to those constantly trying to compare her younger self to the grown-up Jenner in the Interview Magazine discussion saying:
"I'm like, how can you compare my 12-year-old face and say I've gotten my jaw shaved and eyelids removed?" I'm like, "What are we talking about?"
Well, while she has not touched her face, the reality star has admitted to going under the knife for a breast augmentation at 19 in 2017, just one year before welcoming Stormi. She admitted this on a season of "The Kardashians" to BFF Anastasia "Stassie" Karanikolaou as she said:
"Also, you know I got my breasts done before Stormi. Within six months of like having Stormi, not thinking I would like have a child when I was 20 like they were still healing."
However, looking back now, the star regrets messing with them, stating that she had "beautiful breasts, just gorgeous, perfect everything," and urged people to think things through or wait until after having kids to make such a huge decision.
The Blast shared that the mother-of-two also expressed a looming fear of her daughter deciding to get surgery at 19 claiming that she would be heartbroken. In her words, she put it this way:
"I mean, she's the most beautiful thing ever. I want to be like the best mom and the best example for her, and I just wish I could be like her and do it all differently because I wouldn't touch anything."
Motherhood Changed The "Life Of Kylie" Star's Life
Since welcoming Stormi with rapper Travis Scott, the model disclosed that she had learned more about herself and life in general.
"My daughter has totally taught me a lot more about myself, and seeing myself in her has changed everything. I've had so much growth and am just embracing natural beauty," admitted the star, who is also "teaching her (Stormi) about mistakes that I made and making sure she knows she's just perfect exactly how she is."
On why Jenner got her breasts done at 19, The Blast shared that insecurity was far from the list. Instead, she had always been "super confident" and loved her body. The 26-year-old confirmed to WSJ Magazine that she was influenced by "amazing boobs" and just wanted to have her share of the fun.
Jenner, who launched her clothing line "Khy" last month, also revealed that motherhood has changed her use of social media, and now that she is older, she is a lot more private.
The "WAP" star built an army of fans by posting everything on social media when she was younger and remains the second most followed woman on Instagram.
