Kim Kardashian (and beau Kanye West) might not be due until July, but that doesn't mean she shouldn't start preparing for the big day. If Kim's looking for some wisdom on "how to look glam during labor ... because it's a bitch," she should look no further than MTV's very own mama expert, "Snooki & JWoww" star Snooki.
Snooki offers up her tips, noting, "First impressions are everything, so when you meet your baby for the first time, you have to look flawless."
"If your face is already made up when your water breaks, you have plenty of time to do it in the hospital when you're waiting to dilate. I waited 27 hours, and the whole time, I just put on makeup and watched cartoons," Snooki recalls about giving birth last August. "And, make sure you choose your makeup palettes wisely, because the hospital rooms are boring, the walls are white; it's just not a good look."
Her suggestions? Go for pink or red lips, rather than nudes. Also, "Remember to keep an extra pair of eyelashes in your purse, just in case your water breaks when you're not at home. Or, just do like I did and bring a whole box."
With makeup tips in the bag, so to speak, Snooki offers up some fashion advice. "Make sure you bring your own hospital gown, because hospital gowns at the hospital are ugly. And for me, I brought my own leopard-print satin. It just made me feel beautiful while I was in labor," she recalls. "Kim, I feel like you would be in more of a couture designer, maybe like Dolce & Gabbana gown."
"Accessorize!" Snooki advises. "Make sure you stay away from the big hoop earrings, because it can get caught in your extensions. You can wear some nice diamond studs so you look really cute in your selfies."
A scarf is also a key accessory, for a very important reason: "Trust me, you're gonna get bloated and you're gonna have like a million double chins, so cover the s--- up," Snooki urges. A pedicure is also important, she says, because "your feet blow up."
But, Snooki's biggest piece of advice that "goes without saying"? "Make sure your mascara is waterproof," she says. "Because you're going to cry with the pain with a baby coming out of your vagina and also when you meet your baby for the first time. And, trust me, you do not want to look like a zebra."
