Kylie Cosmetics has a mixed reputation. Users like the brand for its smooth lip liner, blurring effect powder blushes, and unique lipstick colors. However, they criticize the brand for its poor customer service, non-lasting liquid lipstick, drying lip kit, and less pigmented eyeshadow. Some users also report severe skin reactions to their skincare products.

I was sold on Kylie back in the lip kit craze. With everyone picking one up and touting its bold colors and lasting effects, I figured "Why not?" I love lip stains and was curious to see how this one would stack up. While it certainly lasts, as it wears off, it leaves a ring around your lips. The product is incredibly drying, but doesn't pair well with a typical clear gloss, as it becomes quite thick. That, and the stain does come off upon touching it. There are better stains on the market.

I was gifted some of their products and they were fine. The eyeshadow wasn't very pigmented and their lip kit was VERY drying on my already dry lips. 

This was a huge thing when I was growing up, it honestly is really good but I don't think it stays on too long or really has an affect for the price and hype.

The WORST liquid lipstick I had ever tried. Can’t say much for her other products, but I haven’t tried much since she first launched. 

I tried their famous lip kit in 808 Kylie shade. The lip liner is very smooth and easy to work with but this liquid lipstick is very dry. It just doesn't look great on my lips.

I like Kylie and her products, but I really need to complain about one of them: "Kylie clarifying cleansing gel" (27£). 

The product says: "refreshed skin, gentle formula as cleanses without stripping or drying the skin after usage, and especially says- great for all skin types". 

How can it be great for all the skin types if it destroyed my face. I tried it two times, same effect. 

The first time I had my face destroyed for one week. I used it in the morning. It started with itching during the following night. I woke up red and swollen. I was in that condition for three days. After my skin has became dry, full of bubbles and wrinkles. I want to mention on that day I just used that product as a new one on my skin recently. 

I tried it a second time, to be sure it happened because of the product and not because of food or anything else. 

The second time, again started with itching all the night. I woke up red and swollen. For some days I had my skin face very itchy and rough. I looked like an old lady, and not at all how the product promises.

Insane that a brand this big would not allow for returns and refunds! The foundation I tested for was too light and too yellow and actually had a very drying effect on my skin. Not a nice texture. I really should have read about their return policy before ordering, but I also don't think it's unreasonable to assume they would take returns.

It's lipstick, there's not much to it. It's not a revolutionary formula. It stays well and they have pretty colors. 

Kylie cosmetics are some of my favorite. The color is awesome and they are definitely trendy and high-quality. They are worth every penny of the price

I think some of the products are good and I think some of the products can be overpriced and you are just essentially paying for the brand name. I think her glosses are good and her highlighters but I haven't tried any other products from the line since the rebranding.

The brand has upgraded its eyeshadow formula since launch and I love it. But I do find the palettes to begin to feel repetitive and less innovative with each launch. I would love to see more excitement in that arena. Overall, would love if Kylie Cosmetics put less focus on limited edition collections and more focus on developing and perfecting a core lineup. 

People love to speak badly about this brand but as someone who as tested nearly all the products in the lineup, I can’t say it is horribly bad. Sure, the collections aren’t as exciting and innovative as they used to be. But Kylie Cosmetics’ core collection is a solid group of makeup. I constantly find myself reaching for her powder blushes — there is a great variety of shades and the color payoff is beautiful. Her newly formulated bronzer and highlighters have been a go to of mine recently too. The high shine lip glosses are some of my favorites on the market. I used to despise the scent of them, but put up with it because of how glossy and non sticky they were. But once the brand reintroduced them with a much better scent I couldn’t be happier. The lip liners are also a great get — they’re ultra creamy and lasting enough that you can go without putting lipstick on top if you really wanted to. 

Didn’t love using the lipliner in the lip kit. Was hard to sharpen and also didn’t feel a need to use it much since the lipgloss itself was so long wearing. 

The liquid lipstick absolutely does not budge and you can get it in so many fun, pigmented colors. Isn’t super drying despite being a long wearing formula and smells delicious :) 

I used to love my old kit in the Better Not Pout shade, but I found the liner dried up fairly quickly. The colors are all gorgeous, but it wasn't my favorite for the price point. I personally liked the liquid lipsticks better than the glosses, the pigmentation was much better and lasted longer whereas the gloss felt heavier on my lips without the same durability.

I would love to try more of her stuff in the future! i think her brand is solid overall.

I absolutely LOVE the watermelon lip oil! It's definitely become an essential in my everyday purse! 
I've also tried the lip kits, which I also love and have gotten compliments on the color.


Love the charcoal mask! Just remember not to leave on for more than 30 mins . An hour if your face is more oily than your average. Would love to try more of her products in the future. 

I bought her face mask and little brush to try out and both solid products. I learned on the first day not to leave it on too long cause it will dry every moisture you have. But I had my serums to bring me back to life. That means it very effective so I’m not mad about that. My face looks really fresh in the mornings when I use it the night before and I love love love that.The cute applicator brush is mainly what got me though :)

Both my teenager daughters love her lip kits, perfect gifts. I like the Koko collection. 

I have only tried the lip kits. It’s nice that the lip liner matches and it comes as a set. It does last a long time. I don’t like the way it feels. It feels dry and weird on
