Kylie Cosmetics
My first blog post is about one extremely popular brand that I'm sure we've all heard of, the infamous Kylie Cosmetics.
I recently purchased a product from this company for the first time. I was curious in finding out whether her lipsticks were worth all the hype. To my disappointment, they were not.
The product I purchased was one of her new metal matte liquid lipsticks in the shade 'Reign', the color is such a pretty copper-bronze. I was sure it would really work out since most of the reviews I had read about her products seemed very promising. The consistency of this liquid lipstick is sort of thick like a mousse texture. As far as application goes it went on pretty smoothly but also quite streaky. I waited for it to dry to layer it to fix the streakiness but I waited and waited and kept waiting for it to dry but it never did. Somewhere I read that using a lip liner would help but it did not. When I went to remove it it came right off.
Final thoughts:
In my professional opinion as a makeup artist, I think that the Kylie lip kits are nothing more than just marketing BS. My experience with her product was not agreeable. I wasted my money on a product that I ended up not liking (for quality reasons, color is fine) and I couldn't even get a refund or an exchange. If a company truly believes in their product they'd allow returns (talk about poor customer service). This was not a hate blog post against Kylie, it's a simple review on a makeup product that didn't meet my standards. All in all, I will not be buying from Kylie Cosmetics anymore.
