OTHER LOCATIONS: Can be sourced locally through Instagram sellers; please visit Kylie Cosmetics official website for retailer information

THE VERDICT:

A friend and I randomly talked about the Kardashians one time and we both agreed that everyone can love or hate them, but at the end of the day, they get what they want and those are: 1. They get talked about...a lot. 2. They get us to buy whatever they sell no matter if it's their latest video, newest show, brand new fashion/beauty line, or opinion. No, these girls are not blonde.

Case in point, the Kylie Lip Kit; it's probably this millennium's fastest selling lipstick line that gets out of stock right before Kylie announces that she has a new product or color (okay, I'm probably exaggerating here, but it REALLY sells out fast!). In fact, it's so hot that her website, kyliecosmetics.com, broke the Internet, particularly Google Analytics as the search engine company reported that it received the all- time highest traffic on a single period when she announced that she restocked all her colors one time; upon the announcement, 200,000 people flocked the website that it caused a crash that affected GA (still, people managed to get their orders through because the kits were sold out in minutes...again!).

I had to buy into the hype not because I like Kylie nor any of the Kardashians, but because I really like the artwork of her lip kits and the colors offered; for trial, I chose True Brown K, the first Kylie Lip Kit color that caught my eye.

KYLIE LIP KIT IN TRUE BROWN K BY KYLIE JENNER IN DETAIL

This duo is apparently Kylie's secret to getting her signature lips and it comes in her signature colors; the products come in a matte finish and promise to be long- wearing and non- drying; it comes in 9 shades.

Ingredients

One lip kit features a liquid lipstick and complementary lip liner; I think that this is a brilliant combination; lip liner and lipstick are equally essential in achieving a great lip, but it is only Kylie who has thought of selling both together and in uniform shades. I guess this is one of the reasons why it sells like hot cakes!

The lip liner has a soft, semi- creamy tip; it glides on easily, but doesn't snap off; the wand has a semi- doe foot look and comes in a medium size to fit most lip shapes and gets into corners.

KYLIE LIP KIT BY KYLIE JENNER IN TRUE BROWN K IN ACTION

True Brown K caught my eye because I've been looking for a real dark brown in a matte finish and this proved to be the perfect candidate; there's none quite like it and it is the dark brown that I have long been looking for. 

Consistency is a semi-runny liquid that starts off glossy, but eventually sets into a matte finish; it may highlight dry areas so scrub and moisturize prior usage; it is lightweight, clings onto the lips well, but doesn't feel uncomfortable, has great pigmentation, and finish is a nice kind of flat matte.

My problem with this lipstick is it can get reaaaaally drying, depending on the condition of my lips so to be safe, I wear it when my lips are in its healthy state; it stays put, but needs to be retouched during wear and can be wiped off.

I actually thought of investing in the entire line for my amusement, but realized that it's way too much money for a lipstick, especially since the nudes can be duped easily even if they're nice (hello, Colourpop) plus formula is drying out my lips big time so maybe I'm good after one more of this (22) and a metal lipstick. Is it worth buying? I think for True Brown K, yes, because it is such a unique shade!

  2. I have the same thoughts Ms.M it's a LOT for one lipstick and people are getting crazy getting their hands on that Kylie lipset. I am also thinking of getting one but after reading that it has a dupe - colourpop which I totally loved so much, I didn't get one. But anyways nice color though Ms.M suites you very much but I am very concerned with the drying part of the lips.

  3. Everyone is really into this one. I myself joined a lot of giveaways just to get one coz it's expensive. But I never thought it would make our lips dry. Will take note of that. I am not really into lipsticks I just put one during occasions or when I think I look pale plus I really love dark ones. Woohh!

  4. Yey you have the updated brush and Kylie is I think a marketing genius. I wish brands should follow the idea of Kylie of selling their lipstick with matching lip liner.

  5. So I made peace with myself that I will not get this lipstick because it sells out really fast and there's no way I'll pay for an expensive shipping fee for this. Until I saw those IG sellers! So of course I had to get one. Hehe I got Kourt K and I loved it!
    Although you have to admit, the scent is too cloying plus it stays. I'd love to get another one too but I think I'll just get Colourpop, mas madami pa kon mabibili. Hehe

    1. Haha true; but I think I'll get one more: a metal shade and 22; I'm really digging the look of 22.

  6. I would really love to be able to sport a brown shade but then again, I'm afraid it would make me look a lot older :( But in all fairness, this shade looked good on you Miss Martha!

  7. Kylie Lip Kit makes every ladies goes crazy nowadays. Grabe. Ubusan ng stock. Kahit seller sa insta. The price for me is ok because it comes with a lip liner na but I have a big no for drying your lips. Anyway, the shade of True Brown K is good for you. Still pretty ka pa din. Bat ganon? Kahit ata anong ilagay mong lipstick bagay sayo eh.

  8. Sabi nung ibang napanuod ko na youtubers (not pinay youtubers) ang iba daw gusto lang talaga bumili just because everyones raving about it... Dahil lang din sa pangalan. Gaya nga ng sabi mo ate, there's a lot of dupes na nag kalat which is more affordable. Luho lang talaga ang kylie lip kit 😂😂😂 but it feels nice padin to experience kasi 😂❤️

    1. True! Except, again, if you buy this really unique shade; but if you're not into really dark colors, colourpop will actually do.

  9. I've watched a lot of reviews about kylie lip kits on youtube. Some youtubers says na worth it nga ba talaga? And ayun nga. Na yung iba bumibili lang just because everyones raving about it. Haha. Gaya ng sabi mo ate, there's a lot of dupes na nagkalat. Haha. Which is more affordable. Haha. Yung ibang bumibili at kinokompleto, luho lang tlaga. Hahahha. Pero it feels nice padin na maexperience kasi hahaha

  10. I wish I could own this KYLIE LIP KIT (posie k)but this one is kinda pricey,
    Maybe A dupe for this kylie lip kit is enough for me♥

  11. Truly! I did tried this one but I didn't bought yet because the price is a killer. I do think that this is such a nice kit to have but I do not think that it makes wonders because it really is drying.

    My cousin have this in 3 shades (Candy K, Dolce K and Trube Brown K) and it does look so beautiful when she first applied it but at the end of the day when I looked at her again, her lips looks like Sahara Dessert! LOL. No offense, she did scrubbed her lips before putting it on but same as me, we have very dry lips. She even put lip balm before applying this but wearing this the whole entire day. I wore Candy K and I love love it especially the lip liner! If they would or if they really do sell the lip liner individually I might as well buy one. But for the liquid lipsticks, it have a lot of dupes. I still lean more on my Colourpops, plus it is affordable!

    Anyway, Kylie is killing it with this business. I do think that we are paying more for her (the brand) than the product.

    1. Haha. True. We're paying Kylie more than the lipkits!

      Oh, that's the sad part about this product; it really dries the lips!

      Delete
  12. I've tried this once just for fun, but I'm sticking to my Sleek liquid lipsticks. They're more affordable and now come in more shades!

    I do think it's brilliant that the kit comes with a lipliner. It eliminates the need to make an extra effort to look for a lip liner that matches the lip color.

    1. Sleek is actually great! They came out with lots of neutrals and some vampy shades recently. :)

  13. Hay naku Ms. Martha probably hanggang wishful thinking na Lang ako for Kylie Lip kits. It's super out of my budget. Hayst! Buti pa si Ryzza Mae of Eat Bulaga has her own Kylie Lip Kit. Hehehe!

    1. Yeah I saw that. But I think it's too much for her young skin; the formula of this one is pretty strong!

  14. I personally think these Kylie Lip Kits are overrated. I'd rather go for Colourpop as you mentioned, or even other lipsticks such as MAC. :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. many says that colourpop and kylie has the same manufacturer that's why they are likely the same,

  16. pretty shade! it also looks nice on you. :)

  17. very expensive for me, after reading an article about a youtuber who made comparison on this lippies versus colourpop i made a decision that i will get the colourpop instead.. yes,,, there are many DUPES out there!

  18. Very detailed review on this one.

    Just want to ask a question po? Can you recommend nude lippies for a morena girl like me? I find it very hard to find the perfect nude lipstick for my skintone. I'm not a beauty expert nor soon-to-be one. Indeed, at the age of 23 I'm just starting my beauty journey. I hope you can help.

    Thank you.

  19. These lippies are everywhere but they are super expensive. Yey for dupes!

    ReplyDelete
  20. I AM NOT BUYING THIS. True the color is nice but it's too much for the price, I can get dupes and other lipstick or liquid lipstick for a fraction of the price, anyway, it's not like everytime I will be wearing a lipstick I would go on mentioning the brand. I don't see any difference with other matte liquid lipstick which has the same horrible drying effect on the lips. Too bad. But thanks for the review Ms. M.
