This video was requested by YOU, & I am so excited to be sharing it. As someone who has not purchased about 7 or 8 orders directly from Kylie Cosmetics (excessive I know), I feel like I have lots of knowledge to share with you guys. Yeah, I get that the process of ordering from Kylie Cosmetics is a lot more complicated for us South Africans. Am I willing to do it? Absolutely. Are you? Perhaps not. And that’s ok.

Anyway, I am not saying that you cannot trust ALL IG resellers or stores on eBay; I just feel that you should be educated on what you should be getting. I do think you shouldn’t trust AliExpress though – they are NOT selling the real deal. I have heard some real horror stories of people getting lip sores, or their money stolen; among other things happening. With a product like this, it’s inevitable that there will be fakes out there. Where there is demand, there is bound to be a long line of people trying to make a quick buck off it.
When first heard of fake Kylie lip kits back in June, it was so obvious that these were knock offs. But after purchasing a set of fake lip kits in Mary Jo K & Dolce K – I am seeing that some of the points that were initially mentioned are now ‘fixed’. For example, the lip liner now has a serial number on the fake – yep you read that right. They are improving the fakes. Listen, I didn’t actually put the fakes on my lip…because I’m not about that life. But I can tell you that the appearance of the fake product has improved from then to now. There are still some very obvious ways they have not improved the product, but a month from now, who knows how close they will be to that.
My video is very detailed. I compare the products side by side, & even give you dimensions (in cm). I feel as though, if you don’t have a lip kit to compare to, the dimensions will really be helpful.
Enjoy! And let me know your thoughts on the topic.
I would not trust any south african sellers or ebays sellers because its obviously fake. Its crazy how people will spend R300 plus for this and its dupes
Yeah it’s very scary that some people are being sold replicas. I bumped into a friend who said they bought a fake not knowing it. And that they were shocked by the cost of the real deal. Sadly, not many people see the danger in buying a fake.
Ahhh, Thanks for sharing your amazing informative video. Now we can easily identify fake product.
Thank you so much for this video. I did purchase a lip kut vudle for mary jo k that has the matte lip liquid,liner,eyebrows liner and a sharpener (im not even sure if the original kylie has this bundle) but i was so curious so i did try. I was so positive that what i bought is real (didnt know the real price of the bundle) but when i saw your video i was so upset for buying these,and i am thankful cuz now i know and lerned not to buy stuffs from online reseller. The one thay i got is fake ?. Thanks bret! ?
Hey,
Definitely, Helpful post and I relly liked this video which helps me to easily identify a fake lipstick. Actually, time of buying we don’t care due to busy. But I think now we can find the duplicate of this products easily. Thanks a lot for sharing. See you again.
Hi thanks for making this video, I found it so helpful! My lip stick is exactly as the real one in size of cm and even the drippings, my fake doesn’t have the 2 same size drippings so that’s why I thought mine was real but thanks to your video I noticed my stick inside is solid white and not transparent like the real one ? and as for the lip liner it did measure 14 cm not 13 also had the tiny hole/indent on the bottom but it did have the serial number of 165A.
Really glad you found the video helpful 🙂
Thank you sooooo much for making this video! I thought I just hated the lip kit product, but it turns out I mistakenly purchased fakes. I just ordered a lip kit and the birthday matte lipglosses from the Kylie Cosmetics website and I’m excited to give the REAL THING a shot!
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
