Kylie Lip kit review and swatches

19th February 2016

Hey love’s

Today I’m going to be talking about the very popular kylie Jenner lip kits! I’m going to be sharing my experience with ordering these off the website/how long they took to arrive, plus showing you swatches and the beautiful packaging.

 so when I knew kylie was coming out with her own lip kit I knew I had to have them, I’ve been obsessed with kylie and her famous talked about lips for a while now, yes I was one of those girls who jumped on the mac whirl and soar bandwagon.

I was lucky enough to get dolce k when she first launched these in November, after having a nightmare on her website due to the amount of people on her site my order finally went through, now in my opinion I don’t  think they was prepared for how popular these were going to be and how many orders they had, it was chaos, peoples orders were getting refunded, others got charged for more than what they had ordered, that’s without the shipping , I was chasing up for about 2 weeks for my shipping email and tracking number. once I finally got my tracking info my parcel arrived about a week after so in total I waited about 3 weeks for it to arrive in the UK. Then randomly one day I had a custom charge from royal mail saying something needed paying before it could be delivered, well to my surprise it was another lip kit in dolce k! I think they had just totally messed up the shipping  on these, I know a lot of the orders from November 30th got lost so they was re sending some and I think because I had emailed chasing up my order they could have resent it.

here is dolce k on, I absolutely love it, the formula is thick and creamy and doesn’t feel drying on the lips.

so on to the next restock she did, this was on the 5th feb and she was launching 3 new shades for valentines day, I was lucky again and got koko k and candy k. it was much easier to order this time around the lip kits stayed in stock for a good 25/30 minutes, I had some issues at the payment section as it was taking a while to process but it finally went through, I was so happy and felt extremely lucky.

 

It had been about 2 days and I hadn’t received an email of my order confirmation, after what happened to people last time I was panicking a little so I emailed them and they said the order hadn’t gone through, I was fuming and told them the payment had already come out my account and I had got an order number from the payment page, they finally came back to me and apologised saying it had gone through and was processing. so I still feel like they could work on how they handle the orders and customer service. I got my shipping info on the 10th and it arrived on the 13th I was so pleased the shipping was way faster this time around.

from the first release kylie has changed the packaging and box the kits come in, also I had heard the formula had been changed which I was gutted about as I loved the first formula.

so here they are, it also came with a little note written by kylie which I thought was cute, also the box looked more professional and had kylie cosmetics on it so I’m guessing she’s coming out with other makeup/beauty items

on the left is my 2 dolce k from last time, then its candy k & koko K.

the swatch on my hand is candy, koko and dolce. koko is more of a baby nude pink, candy is more rosey/mauve on me and then dolce Is more  brown, don’t forget these look completely different on everyone depending on skin tone etc.

straight away I could tell the formula was different, it was much more runny and thinner in consistency, I tried koko on my lips and wasn’t that impressed it felt so dry and it looked really patchy and was flaking off my lips, now I’m a liquid lipstick junkie so I know that they are drying and you have to exfoliate etc but this was different to me the formula or batch felt off. I have emailed them about it and I am waiting on a response as I just don’t think its very wearable.

overall I much preferred the original formula, I also noticed the wand and applicator was different it wasn’t as long or flexible. I am still glad I got these as I think the colours are really nice. the packaging is super cute,& the lip liners are really creamy and pigmented plus the lipsticks smell like cupcakes yummy!!

    I am so curious to try these but I cant justify spending $30 on them. Are they really worth it?? They look gorgeous on and I like that you get the pencil with but they charge U.S. shipping $8 on top of it! that’s the most I have ever heard of….I am slowly talking myself into buying one. lol

      I think she’s changed her formula so many times, that’s what I have heard anyway I only like her original formula and I wear dolce pretty much everyday so I do love them, But haven’t purchased any recently. I was getting charged custom fees every time I ordered so it was putting me off to be honest, but I do love the lip liners so it is a good deal as you are getting both in the set. xo

My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmati My Santa has been and John has only got me Dalmatian print wrapping paper 😭 this could have been my present alone and I would have been thrilled! Love how it goes with my Dalmatian baubles 🤩 he knows me so well 🎁 🖤and it’s completely recyclable 👌🏼♻️
Just the presents to put under the tree, the annua Just the presents to put under the tree, the annual Christmas Eve clean up, set up the Christmas Day table and get myself sorted and pampered and we are all ready!! Can’t wait to just chill for a few days as Christmas always goes so quick doesn’t it. I Hope you all have a lovely Christmas whatever it is you will be doing 🎄 🎅🏻🤶🏻 🎁 🍾🥂 here’s some pictures of my tree with the lights on, it’s weird as these lights I got from the range look different each time I turn them on 🙈 I think I prefer my old ones from last year to be honest👀
I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads fo I’ve been looking for dog harnesses and leads for a while now as we wanted something new for the new additions we have. I got Elliott’s old ones from America and I just hadn’t seen anything I really loved until I came across @popandtedthreads and I fell in love with their whole range, especially the made to order personalised ones where you can pick your own fabric, trim and hardware colours.  Of course I just had to have this monochrome Dalmatian print fabric😍🤩 I can’t believe they’re completely hand made, I’m so impressed with the quality and finish.  You can tell a lot of hard work and love goes into these so thank you @popandtedthreads my little pups are going to love their new stuff for Christmas and will look so cute!! Thought I would share incase anyone else was looking for really unique dog accessories 🖤
I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath I really wanted to change up this Christmas Wreath this year and add some bits to it but I just haven’t had the time, not even put up half of my Christmas decorations that I wanted to. 😭 So I just added some more snow and glitter to this and have made do 🙈 honesty where has this year and month gone...it’s flown by and I’m not ready for Christmas in the slightest, got to finish my shopping tomorrow and wrap everything, do the food shop and have a good clean up in the house! Oh take me back to being a kid and being excited for Christmas ha ha! 🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄
Another job ticked off the list and one step close Another job ticked off the list and one step closer to finally finishing everything in the kitchen yay. 😊 I really wanted an antique mirror cooker splash back, it’s the reason I didn’t go for tiles in here and went for up-stands instead as I didn’t want it looking OTT and I definitely think less is more in the kitchen. This white antique glass was specially made and took about 6-8 weeks but I love it. 🤩You can really see the antique detailing up close (swipe for pic) although we have had some slight issues with the measurements on the boxing in area around the island which we also wanted in glass. A little disappointing, so that’s got to be sorted out but I’m hoping it will be done before Christmas 🤞🏻
I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feel I just love Christmas decor ☺️ everything feels so cosy 🎄✨I’m surprised I’ve got any chocolates and sweets left on my tables though, because my niece keeps trying to eat them all when she comes over 😂
Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pret Christmas tree reveal 🤩🌲🎄 Although I pretty much showed it on my Instagram stories🙊swipe for lots more up close pics....it’s a bit of a weird one this year, as I’m not feeling Christmassy in the slightest yet, this tree and all the decorations were supposed to be for the new kitchen but that plan has gone out the window thanks to the two new puppies that have taken over my kitchen. So I’ve used all these bits for the living room instead. Sorry for my lack of posts,  I’ve got a hell of a lot going on and I’m still not 100% myself. Details below •Christmas tree 🎄 -  is the snowy alpine 6ft from @christmastreeworld and I am obsessed! It’s so gorgeous and full looking! •All the flowers and sprays - from @tonyalmondonline ( my best find this year for amazing affordable decorations) •other decorations from @therangeuk and my local garden centres @longacresbagshot & @oaktreegardencentre •made the Dalmatian baubles myself it was so easy •stocking holders @homesense_ukie and the fluffy stockings are from @ebay_uk
Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about Can’t believe how many messages I’ve had about this when I posted it on my stories over the weekend🙈 I literally just wanted something to store all my hair styling tools so they didn’t look all messy and tangled. I ended up on eBay and found and ordered these wall mounted holders...I didn’t even know they did special dyson hairdryer holders but I had to have one! I sprayed mine gold (obviously) because I didn’t want them black or silver and attached them to the side of my Ikea Alex unit and I’m so pleased with how it looks ☺️ These GHDs are also yearsssss old but some how still work perfectly and I can’t part with them because they’re a gorgeous gold! 😭
Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve Another side of my beauty/dressing room....I’ve always wanted a proper dressing area, somewhere I can get ready and have all my clothes and accessories to hand. Before I was going in 2/3 rooms just to find bits, as I had it all scattered around 🙈 So pleased I went with the ikea corner pax wardrobe and got very excited over the pull out tray for my jewellery and accessories. (It’s the little things)...I don’t need no fancy pretty hammonds wardrobe....Ikea will do me nicely 😂 My bags won’t be staying like this either as I need to get another shelf next time I go to Ikea. I originally thought I needed more rail space but turns out I don’t, I think I just liked the idea of these pull out rails 🤨
I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you I recently switched my beauty room around, (if you watch my stories you would have seen) So I now have the bigger spare bedroom for my beauty and dressing area yay! And I’m so pleased with it. 😍 I’ve got so much more room now and I had a good sort out and declutter while I was at it, and no more buying makeup I don’t need✋🏻 the Dalmatian spots won’t be going back on the wall but I’ve got use for them somewhere else 👀 I love Dalmatian print but I thought with my new Dalmatian rug it was a little over kill 😂
Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next fo Got these faux fur Dalmatian cushions from next for the living room...didn’t like how they looked in here for some reason, as preferred my other ones🙈 so these are now on the sofa in John’s gaming room 😂 I’m wondering if he will notice that my dalmatian print obsession will slowly be taking over in that room too 👀🙊
I love me some gold and spotty print office statio I love me some gold and spotty print office stationery!! America have the best stuff, which I’m sorry to say is where most of this is from but I often see gorgeous bits in tkmaxx and Homesense. Now my desk is all clean and tidy I must get back to actually blogging and doing some work 👀✍🏻👩🏼‍💻
Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pamp Never seen such gorgeous and unusual coloured pampas before. 😍 Absolutely love @foxglove.studio / @foxglove.studiothekiosk for their amazing selection of dried flowers and the service is always brilliant. These are like a grey/ silver tone and are absolutely beautiful and so fluffy. I’m hoping their  website is up and running soon so I can browse and buy lots more 👀🤞🏻plus so many people keep asking me where all my dried flowers are from 🌾🌾
So happy I got these over the sofa side tables. I’ve had my eye on these for a while now and found them in my local tk maxx and they weren’t damaged for a change so I had to get them. They make the perfect side tables when you don’t have much room. 🖤
