I received my KKW Beauty package yesterday, & I was keen to share my thoughts on it before the RESTOCK today. As you guys are surely aware, KKW Beauty dos not ship to South Africa. I ahem had to use my US Forwarding service SHIPITO.
My opinion is exactly that MY OPINION. I feel like some people are going to hate on the Kardashians no matter what, & that’s up to them. However, no matter what product I review, I am always honest.

Based on the above, if you purchased the KKW BEAUTY Creme Contour/Highlight Kit on its own, you will end up paying roughly R900 – R1100 depending on the size of the box your item is shipped in. My box was a little big; bigger than Kylie’s box. The bigger the box, the more your shipping fees. You may even end up paying the same shipping fee for 1 product, that I paid for 2.
There were a few websites that were saying that KKW BEAUTY sold over 300 000 kits in this initial launch. I strongly disagree with that. I placed my order at 8.20pm, over 2 hours after the launch time of 6pm. At the time of my order, ALL Medium & Light kits were SOLD OUT. There were only Dark & Deep Dark kits left. My order number was #KKWB19774. KKW BEAUTY is run on the Shopify system, which is the same system I use on my online shop. The order numbers are not random, they are in order of the number of orders you have. What I am trying to get at is that after 2 hours, I was the 19 774th person to order. I do not think 300 000 orders were placed that day. This figure was based on an interview Kim did where she mentioned her KKW x Kylie collab made 300 000 lip sets. I think Kim launched with a limited amount of product. That is my opinion.
I hope you enjoyed my review & this video. If you happen to purchase the contour/highlight kit do leave me a comment down below & let me know what you think.
Loved your video. Nice honest review. For me it’s a bit pricey so I wouldn’t purchase. But the contour looked great on you x although u weren’t impressed with the texture of the lippie I though the colour looked good on u 🙂
Thank you. I agree the colour was nice, but the formula is not for me. I was thinking that maybe I can try it over another lipstick.
What was your special request with Shipito and did they deliver to your door?
My special request is always that they take pictures of the items.
Yes, because I selected ARAMEX, it was delivered to my door.
Popping over to your video now x
Hey they don’t have a delivery option for SA. How did you process your delivery?
No they do not ship to SA.
I use a forwarding service.

Hi Vivi, unfortunately I have no idea, as I purchased it directly.
