My Kylie Cosmetics addiction continues. When the Kylie Cosmetics Birthday Collection launched, I really wasn’t sure what I was going to purchase; or if I would purchase anything at all. For the most part, I was unsure about this Kylie Cosmetics Birthday Collection because I didn’t want to buy another make-up item that would go unused. If I am being honest, I have 2 Kylie Cosmetics eyeshadow palettes that I have not used once. Not even to swatch. It’s pretty bad! So, when it came down to making my Birthday Collection purchase, I opted for lip products. I am a fan of her lip products, & recently discovered her velvet formula. Be sure to check out my video for all the swatches. I took a few pictures, which you can find below, but you won’t find all the shades there.

Sorry to bug you about this but if you could give me some advise, I don’t who else to ask.
I am buy some thing in the USA and they have given me a price of $250 on shipping my products. Is there another company I could use that is CHEAPER to ship my things. Hope you can can please help. Thank you.
The SHIPITO service I mention in this post. Check them out. I have a video on my YT channel about shipping products from USA.
Hi Brett,
I recently finally used my shipito address for shipping, but now I want to mailout to SA, but the option I get is DHL express only (which is too expensive) which option do you use to mail out your packages? Is there no normal DHL option, could it be because of how I filled in my custom declaration?
Thank you
I use either Airmail Economy (cheapest, takes 30 days or so) or Aramex (affordable & arrives in under 10 days) options . I think that if you state that there is a liquid in the parcel then it restricts the options. Try do the LIVE Chat available on the site. I have always found it very helpful.
