♥ Kylie Lip Kit | New Shade: 22





Can you believe this is my third post on these now? Kylie Jenner has been quickly expanding her line of liquid lipsticks and she is yet to disappoint me. The formula of these lipsticks is so incredible and they aren't drying at all... The only qualm I have is that she needs to put her factory into overdrive so they don't always sell out. Hire more people girl, nobody will complain! I'm beginning to think that it might just be a way to ensure they keep selling, though, to make them a cult product, but I would just love the line to be more permanent and not always sold out, ten minutes after they go back on sale - it's just not fair. But I suppose I'm just scared one day I won't actually be quick enough to snap one up.



The fight to get the most recent shade released, 22, was almost impossible. I seriously panicked and did not expect to get my hands on it. Luckily, I did. I got an extra, too, if you're interested. 22 is the most beautiful orange shade I've ever come across. I love orange lips and I think they look great in summer, so I'll be wearing this right through the summer months and I'm pretty convinced it's going to look great with a tan. It's the first shade to be without a K in the name, so it stands out from the others in the collection, but it's no more bold than True Brown K or Mary Jo K! 22 is a beautiful terracotta orange, and it applies just like the others - really opaque, in just one swipe. The lip liner is nice and smooth - and hasn't snapped on me yet - but I'm not making any promises here, as my others have snapped and I'm still trying to figure out if it's my sharpener or not, which is a pain.

Don't be fooled with the liquid lipstick formula, you might think they're drying but these are so so comfy, don't flake off weirdly and take hours and hours to fade away. Not even food budges these. I can eat a big old bowl of spaghetti carbonara and my lips still look pretty perfect afterwards!

Unfortunately, this time around I was charged customs which added £17 onto the already hefty price tag. I've not been charged before so I'm not quiet sure why is it I've been charged and because I live in Cornwall, it was a three mile round trip to walk to the depot and pay and collect - I even had to do this twice, because they wouldn't accept a card payment and there was no card machine around for miles. Great! Honestly, though, they're worth it. If you hadn't already guessed I am totally obsessed with this line and I'm always waiting and excited for her to release more products.

Have any of you managed to bag any of Kylie's lipsticks? I'd love to hear from you and whether or not you've had issues with the liners breaking or having to pay customs! Also, sorry for the shitty quality photos, they were taken on my iPhone rather than my camera because I was feeling super lazy and I was going to miss my 6PM upload time! In case you didn't know, I post every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings at 6PM (or try to, anyway) so keep checking back for new posts!

  1. I have been wanting to try these, it's just annoying how difficult they are to get, along with customs charges as well! This shade is absolutely gorgeous though, the formula sounds amazing as well.

    1. The customs has only annoyed me because the other two times I've ordered I've not been charged, and I've ordered more than this so it's not down to weight or anything, so confusing!

      22 is insane though, such a perfect terracotta orange, i'm head over heels for it! Definitely try and pick one up, they're worth it xx

    1. Thank you!! I have dry lips and they still look great on me, they don't look bad even if you are a little chapped! I was telling myself no more after this, as I'm too far into my overdraft, but you're right - the purple is gorgeous and i'll probably cry if I don't get my hands on it! xx

  4. The colour of this is gorgeous and it really suits you! Well done for getting one, I've been unlucky in my quest to buy one before they sell out so far. X

    1. Haha thank you lovely! Just try and keep up to date and always be on the website before the restock time, sometimes they go up early! You just need to keep refreshing and get them in your basket asap - and if the paying page fails, keep refreshing it because it WILL go through. The payment page kept on dying on me and I was convinced I'd not got them, but it did refresh eventually and they only charged me once, like they should have xx

  5. I've not tried any of this line before but I'm always on the hunt for a matte lipstick that's comfy and doesn't flake weirdly!
