Kylie Lip Kit 22 Review, Price & Swatches on Olive Skin

Last year, in November, Kylie Jenner, the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, launched her cosmetics line. Initially she had just launched her Kylie Cosmetics lip kits– a liquid lipstick with a complementing lip pencil. With over 78 million followers on Instagram, Kylie broke the internet with her launch. Google analytics crashed as 200,000 people went crazy to buy her lip kits which were sold in less than 3 minutes. Caught in the hype, I too bought Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kit in 22. Yes, I paid for that crazy international shipping. Read on to know if the Kylie lip kits are worth the hype!

Price: $29 + $14.99 shipping (Rs.2940.11)

Product Description
The #KylieCosmetics LipKit is your secret weapon to create the perfect ‘Kylie Lip.’ Each Lip Kit comes with a Matte Liquid Lipstick and matching Lip Liner. 22 is a vibrant burnt orange. This ultra-long wearing lip liner has a creamy texture that glides across the lips for a very easy and comfortable application. The Lip Liner sharpens easily in most standard sized sharpeners – just make sure your sharpener is not dull! The Liquid Matte Lipstick has high intensity pigment for an instant bold matte lip. The extremely long wearing lipstick contains moisturizing ingredients for a comfortable, emollient and silky feel that does not dry your lips out.

Packaging
Kylie Cosmetics ships the product in a black cardboard box with Kylie written over it. Sadly, mine got damaged in the mail. The actual lip kit comes in a white box. which has the color and the name of the lip kit printed on the insert. The Kylie Matte liquid lipstick itself comes in a transparent lip gloss packaging that appears like glass but it’s really just a good quality plastic. The applicator is a good old doe-foot and makes application easy and smooth. The lip pencil has an all-black packaging. The only issue with the Kylie lip pencil is that it needs to be sharpened. Otherwise, it looks and feels very luxurious.

Texture
The Kylie 22 lip pencil is extremely creamy and smooth. It glides on the lips very easily and does not feel drying at all. Meanwhile, the Kylie liquid lipstick goes on liquid-y on the lips and dries down to a matte finish within a minute. The Kylie Cosmetic Matte Liquid Lipstick in 22 does not apply patchy nor does it settle into fine lines. It does feel drying after a few hours but nothing that a good lip balm can’t solve. As liquid lipsticks cling to dry patches, we would recommend you to use a lip scrub before applying the Kylie Jenner Lip Kit. Check out these fabulous DIY Lip scrubs that we love using.

Shade & Pigmentation
The color of Kylie Lip Kit in 22 is a beautiful burnt orange. The reason for choosing this color over her famous Dolce K or Koko K was that it suits all Indian & olive skin tones as the color does not wash out medium to darker complexions. Also, such beautiful pumpkin-rustic orange lip colors are not available in the Indian market. The Kylie Jenner Lip Kit in 22 is highly pigmented. The true color can be achieved in a single stroke. However, for pigmented lips, two coats might be required.

Staying Power
Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kit 22 stays put on the lips for a good 8 hours with a little feathering from the inner portion of the lips. It beautifully survives small snacks and drinks. No amount of water can remove the matte liquid lipstick from your lips and you will have to scrub your lips with wet tissues. So the best way to remove this to use an oil-based makeup remover which does the job within seconds.
