In true Jenner-Kardashian fashion, the youngest adult of the brood, Kylie Jenner, has turned the screaming debate over her lip enhancement as a way to cash in (to the point where we’re thinking that was the conspiracy from the get go!) After hinting for weeks of a coming lipstick line, Jenner yesterday revealed a launch date–November 30th at 10 AM PST, and official imagery for a line of matte lipsticks and liners available in three colors: dolce, candy and true brown. The link for the store is LipKitByKylie.com on the official Instagram for the line at launch time. No pricing as of yet. and kits are priced at $29 each.
Not only are the colors trend-right, but the packaging itself is youthful and fresh, with Kylie in big, bold letters at the bottom of the box, topped by an illustration of over-plump lips dripping with color along with exposed teeth covered in silver grills, an added detail that, as has become typical with this family, will no doubt delight as many as it irritates. We are guessing given the level of bandwith Miss Mini Kim has been commanding as of late, cha-ching! –they will evaporate upon arrival.
UPDATE: The site crashed upon launch and according to Kylie’s Twitter feed, “Nobody be upset! There’s so many people trying to buy at once so there are some tech issues.” It must be the mother of all traffic overloads because several hours later it is still down with only the message, “We’ll be right back. We’re currently experiencing higher traffic than normal. Please check back in 15 minutes.”
UPDATE NO. 2: Jenner via Twitter says not to worry, while the kits are all sold out, there will be more before Christmas: “I’m so sad they sold out so fast. Don’t be upset! This isn’t exclusive. There is more to come & still a chance to buy before Christmas!”
