Kylie Cosmetics Valentine’s Limited Edition Mini Set Review & Restock
It has been a while since I wrote a review in this little melty blog of mine. This post is a mini review on the recent (supposedly) limited edition Kylie Cosmetics Valentine’s Mini set. When it was first released I tried to check out on the website for about half an hour till it was sold out, I was then able to get it the 2nd restock. I am unsure of a 3rd restock on this so-called “limited” edition (that word means like nothing anymore lol, why you always lying? ) but by reading comments a lot of people are requesting for the Valentine’s Day collection to be back. Even Kylie tweeted asking if anyone wants High Maintenance back as a permanent lip kit and guess what? She announced on her cosmetics instagram that “Apricot” and “Head over Heels” will be back this tomorrow Friday 3pm pst Feb 24 in the lipkit size.
Back to the quick review on this cute mini set. I think since I have tried both colourpop and kylie’s minis I prefer the fun sized ones over the regular. You get more colors for your money and who is going to finish a liquid lipstick tube anyways, not I. Also, for some reason the consistency is a little different and actually better in my opinion. This Vday set comes with 6 colors and 3 of them are new liquid lipsticks: High maintenance, Apricot, and Head over heels. I am not fond of Posie K it comes off a bit drying and patchy on me. The rest of the colors are nice and “Head over heels” is my favorite berry color from her line. I have yet to try Mary Jo, but Apricot is a little light for my taste and Maliboo I already have. High maintenance is neutral pink that I usually do not wear these days. So if you are interested in the restock be sure to be prepared with your credit card info in hand, a fast internet connection, and lighting fast computer/smart phone skills and head over to kyliecosmetics.com at 3pm pst 2/24. Best of luck to ya!
Happy Halloween Liquid Lipstick Swatches!
Affordable & Available Kylie Leo Liquid Lipstick DUPES
I know, almost all my recent posts are bout Kylie, Kylie, Kylie – I apologize.
On Instagram I read many people were not able to order the Kylie limited birthday edition Leo liquid lipstick, because it sold out already or simply was on stuck on a “frozen” page. I couldn’t “letitgooo” so I tried the second restock and got regular sized Leo instead of the mini matte set that sold out in a split second (60 seconds, I lied). After I was able to acquire Leo in my haa-ands, I went and ordered some colourpop colors I felt looked similar for $6 each–and as rumor or fact has it that Kylie and Colourpop are made from the same manufacturer. Some colors I will discuss are almost an exact dupe. So I tried about 10 colors from my collection that look like similar to Leo, but some when swatched were either too purple or too red so I left those out for the dupe comparisons. Below are the best dupes I could personally find.
Dupe #1: Colourpop LAX is from their Ultra matte liquid lipsticks line. It is slightly deeper than Leo, but if you layer Leo more I think they are an exact match on my non pigmented lips. Both formulas are watery in consistency and have the same doe foot applicator. It is a bit drying and if applied too heavily will crack. Buy it here for $6
Dupe #2: Colourpop Prim is from their Ultra satin liquid lipstick line, that is not trans-proof but matte and comfortable on the lips. I think this is a close dupe for Leo but is more reddish than the deepness of Leo. Also the ultra satin formula does need some maintenance especially since this dark color can get everywhere, making you look like a clown or the joker after eating some yummy tacos. Buy it here for $6
Dupe 4# Anastasia Beverly Hills Heathers liquid lipstick is close in color but a little more subtle color. Formula-wise it is drying but very long wear. Buy it here for $20
Dupe 5# Colourpop Rooch Ultra matte liquid lipstick from their Karrueche Collaboration. This color is beautiful, it has a rusty undertone and not as deep as Leo. This would be the least of the bunch as a dupe. Being one of my favorite colors, it complements my skin tone, whitens my teeth, and really colour popping. The only downfall is after 4-5 hours it does start cracking a little. Some have experienced major cracking immediately. I will continue to wear it and buy a backup, because from all the colourpop colors I own this color I have gotten the most compliments and questions on. 🙂 Get yourself one, fall is just around the corner.
Dupe #6: Colourpop Lax + Colourpop Prim I think a mixture of both colors would help the drying part and the non-transferproofness. Don’t forget to preppare your lips by exfoliating, wear lip balm a half hour before, and use a lip primer. Colourpop offers a cheap $5 lip primer here.
Hope this was helpful and maybe you have these colors already in your collection, so no worrying on FOMO. 😛

Kylie Cosmetics Collection Swatches, Video, & Review Summary
My entire collection of KylieCosmetics.com swatches. Dolce K was the very first lipkit I got this year, then the metals (3), Exposed, and then finally Leo along with Lord. I was disappointed with Dolce K as it crumbles and cracks within minutes on my lips, that I never worn it out for the day, only at home. The metal matte liquid lipsticks are comfy on the lips but not transfer-proof, it seems the darker the metal the better in pigment. Lighter Kylie metal liquid lipsticks are harder to get an even application as well as washes me out. Since they do not dry down, it can be used as a highlight or mixed with another matte or metal color. With Leo and Exposed, I like the formula and it wasn’t like Dolce K. They were a bit runny and watery in formula, but comfortable on the lips. Leo wears nicely on my lips without lip liner. Exposed I can do with or without a liner. I wonder if and when Kylie will open a store front in Los Angeles, CA soon – where I live. 🙂

Kylie Birthday Edition Last Restock Today 8/10 3PM pst: Swatches, 1st Impressions, and Reign Dupe.

These limited edition Kylie Cosmetics liquid lipsticks were hard to ge but I was able to get the Leo lipkit and Lord metal liquid lipstick on the 2nd round of restock but not the minis. Initially, I talked myself into only getting the mini set which includes 6 colors, but they sold out like.literally. in a minute, not cute! Today is the 4th and final round of restock which is on her actual Birthday. Will you be trying to buy anything? Well, I give up, as the quality really is similar to Colourpop and the hefty $8.95 shipping is LEOdicrous.
So I received Kylie Leo & Lord yesterday 8/9 (ordered on 8/4) , and prior to receiving them I watched a youtube review of how Leo wore. Usually, I am too lazy to apply the lip liner, but with these darker colors and per the YT review the liner will help alleviate some of the unevenness. Also layering it too much does get uncomfortable, and lip movement is a bit restricted. The lord metallic liquid lipstick looks more like a bronzy gold and is something I would never wear alone, I would mix it or use it as a topper. The skeptical part of me did check to see if “Gold” was an ingredient listed on the box, and it is. In my opinion, Colourpop metallics wear better and has a way better price point. Funny thing is Lord topped on Leo is a real good dupe for Reign! (See pictures below) I think this is the 3rd and last order I will make from Kylie, till maybe when she opens her storefront in LA.

Best Metallic Liquid Lipsticks & Comparisons/Review : Kylie Dupes

Whoa, my collection of metallic liquid lipsticks is getting a little out of control. Ironically, I am not a huge fan of the metallic liquid lipstick but I was curious to find a good formula and a metallic that is mixable or can be used as a topper or a subtle lip highlight. Here goes my mini reviews.
- NYX – Speed of Light (Gloss) $7.50 & Galactic (not swatched, but videos are on the bottom)
- ★★★★
- Is a really pretty pigmented lip gloss, it is heavy and thick but so beautiful for pictures and a fun costume look
- Colourpop.com – Man Eater
- ★★★
- Is another dupe for Kylie Reign but slightly lighter, comfortable, nice as a topper.
- Milani – Chromatic Addict $8.99
- ★★★★
- Long lasting, comfortable, feels like nothing, and smooth transfer proof application. The shineyness accentuates the lip lines after talking
- Kylie – King K
- ★★★
- Goldie color actually looks more GOLD than Lord metallic liquid lipstick (just got Lord today and it looks bronzy gold)
- Colourpop.com – Salt
- ★★
- Uneven, would rather use to mix or as a lip topper
- Mollycosmetics.com – 24K $16
- ★★★
- Looks really pretty and gold at first, but after talking it gets flakey and the metallic gold finish is turned into grayish-ness.
- Colourpop.com – Lights Out
- ★★
- Uneven, would rather use to mix or as a lip topper
- Colourpop.com – Flitter $6
- ★★
- Good enough dupe to Heir, same uneven application, not transfer proof.
- Kyliecosmetics.com – Heir $18
- ★★
- Uneven application, not transfer proof, streaky, and doesn’t look good on my complexion.
- Colourpop.com – Zebra
- ★★★★
- Is a better metallic in my opinion than the newest Colourpop metallics (in this list) applies even,
- Milani – Materalistic
- ★★★★★
- Long lasting, comfortable, feels like nothing, and smooth transfer proof application. Best metallic liquid lipstick formula from my collection. Great dupe for Kylie Reign.
- Kylie – Reign
- ★★★
- The darker metallics all apply better, feels comfy, long lasting. Milani Materialistic is a good dupe.
Colourpop Metallics Liquid Lipstick Review & Kylie Metals Comparison
Metallic Metallic on my lip who is the mirrortastic of them all, you are Colourpop, YOU!
Yet again, I fall into the need to buy every Colourpop’s new releases (which is almost every week). When there is a launch drought which is no longer than a week, I have the habit of just perusing theit online store..then buy… buy, buy, buy!
Ok, this time I ordered Colourpop’s Ultra Metallic Liquid lipsticks ($6 – all 4 colors in Zebra, Man Eater, 3-Way, and Kween) out of curiosity to see how they compare to Kylie’s Metal Matte Liquid Lipsticks ($18 + $8.95 s&H in US) I am sincerely pleasantly surprised at how pigmented and metallic they are! IMO way better than Kylie’s and for such a good price. (See video at the bottom for lip swatches of all colors)
Colourpop Ultra Metallic Liquid Lipstick – 3 Way: My favorite of them all, it’s a pretty plum gold with pinkish undertones.
Colourpop Ultra Metallic Liquid Lipstick – Zebra: Coppery Plummish Brown on me, kinda like Zebra color lips, without the metallic lol
Colourpop Ultra Metallic Liquid Lipstick – Man Eater: Goldie bronze/Rose Gold. It’s like you ate a bunch of new pennies..not men.
Colourpop Ultra Metallic Liquid Lipstick – Kween: Reddish Gold. Said in a British accent: for the Queen of of Hearts.
- Price $6
- Made in USA
- Size: 2.85 g/0.10 oz
- Long Lasting: Yes
- Non-Drying: Feels comfy
- Non-Peeling: No peeling
- Transfer-proof: no
- Color Choices: only 4 colors at this time
- Non-Staining: Stains a little bit, easy to remove
- Scent: No Scent
- Applicator: Short doefoot applicator, is a little hard to get the clean edges of the lip. Each bottle varied in quality of the doefoot, from fluffy, beaten up and almost lost underneath product.
- Consistency: Pigmented. Chunky with almost like smashed lipstick textured. Had to swirl the tube to get product for 1 of the tubes
- Website: www.colourpop.com
- Physical Store: None
- Ships From: Oxnard, CA USA
- Packaging: Their usual liquid lipstick in white packaging but the ends are in light brown
- Notes:
I Love how pigmented these are, they are super comfortable that I forget I am wearing it. It works great as a matte liquid lipstick topper or as a lip highlighter. The colors are beautiful. I think I will need to get some backups in there next restock (#2 restock) They did say they were limited, yet already had a restock and planning on the 2nd restock. - Compared to Kylie’s metals’ Heir was my least favorite because it was streaky, sheer, and didn’t show up well. I think colourpop’s version is a better kylie formulation but not top notch. As for dupes I think Colourpop Zebra is a good dupe for Reign, and Man Eater is siblings to King K. (see picture below for comparison)
