Despite the number of reviews that are featured here on
the creation of beauty is art. it actually isn't too often that I treat myself to new makeup products. (I have cut back a lot in recent years, but am still lucky enough to receive beauty products on holidays and birthdays.) However, a few months ago, I ended up browsing the beauty aisles while waiting for my husband to finish running an errand. Long story short, I fell in love with a handful of Kylie Cosmetics items. Some were part of the much talked about
King Kylie collection, which is essentially a throwback collection inspired by the early days of the brand. There was also a hair and body mist that smelled incredible. Ready to take a closer look at the products that were too tempting to resist? Keep reading for some reviews and a recent makeup look featuring the products included in this mini haul.
Hair and Body Mist in Caramel Cloud. Scents are definitely a weakness of mine. I love perfumes, room sprays, essential oils, scented candles, and well, everything that smells nice. There were a few different Hair and Body Mists at the store, including one called Vanilla Dew and Sweet Eclair, but it was Caramel Cloud that stood out. It is described by the brand as being cozy and indulgent - and having an ambery gourmand scent. With caramel, brown sugar, and vanilla, the scent is warm and comfortable. Lately,
vanilla scents have been especially high on my list of loves, so this warm caramel and vanilla mist checks all the boxes.
King Kylie Matte Lip Kit in True Brown K. It is no secret that I love the Kylie Cosmetics lip kits. Not everyone likes the formular, but it works really well for me. Both the lip liners and liquid lipsticks are pigmented and long lasting. In more recent years, the brand has focused on more pink and peach kind of colours, so it was really exciting to see a nice chocolate brown. I absolutely love
brown lipstick colours and True Brown K is absolute perfection. I love the old school Kylie Cosmetics packaging (black instead of the more recent pink), the formula, and the colour. This lip kit is my favourite of the three products in this mini haul.
King Kylie Eyeshadow Palette. There are a lot of things that I like about this King Kylie Eyeshadow Palette. I love that on the outer packaging, there are various pictures of Kylie Jenner to show where the inspiration for each colour came from. (Different makeup looks and different hair colours.) There are also fun themed eyeshadow names, like Kylie Blue, Kymajesty, 2014, and 2015. On the inside of the palette, there is a little Snapchat style filter on the mirror. Everything about this palette is a fun throwback to a time when life on the internet, and in general, seemed a little bit lighter. It has a nice nostalgic quality that is endearing. When it comes to the actual eyeshadow shades, there are a lot of blues and greens, which reminds me of all the fun hair colours Kylie used to have. There are some really great eyeshadows in this palette, but unfortunately, several of them are more like eyeshadow toppers. I like when eyeshadow palettes are bold and pigmented, but not all of the eyeshadows in the King Kylie Eyeshadow Palette are. My favourites from the palette are Kylie Blue, Natural Brunette, and Ombre.
To create the makeup look above, there was a bit of the Caramel Cloud spritzed on to start and then several eyeshadows from the King Kylie Eyeshadow Palette were applied on the eyes, including 2014, Natural Brunette, and Sugar Mint. I love that the Natural Brunette shade adds a nice amount of contrast and then the straight shimmers can be added to the rest of the eyelid. The True Brown K Lip Kit was used to finish off the makeup look. I love all of the sparkle contrasted with the matte lip colours.
