Fans Reckon Kylie Jenner Is Flogging Old Lip Kits As Brand New Shades

Reality / cosmetics queen Kylie Jenner has copped a whooooole bunch of flak over her hyper-popular Lip Kits.

From super late delivery, to items not being delivered at all and not being refunded, to the kits being delivered damaged or used – her company, Kylie Cosmetics, even received the lowest possible rating (a cold, hard ‘F’) from the consumer ombudsman group Better Business Bureau in July last year.

Now, her fans aren’t happy once again.

Every now and then, Kylie will release a special, limited edition pack that has a few colours in miniature sizes, often with limited edition shades that won’t be released for single purchase.

But beauty fiends have noticed something with the most recent of these, the mini 4-piece Holiday Collection: one of the limited edition shades ‘Blitzen’ is E-X-A-C-T-L-Y the same as the regular shade ‘Spice’.

It was noticed most recently by beauty blogger Michelle Contreras who posted this comparative image:

However, if you have a look on Twitter, it proves that unhappy fans have been noticing this and asking Kylie for answers for literally weeks:

This is spice VS blitzen… pic.twitter.com/2H6ebB18XM

the description for spice is a deepened raspberry-plum, and Blitzen is apparently a warmer version of that @KylieJenner please explain HOW pic.twitter.com/NUEoqlC7SD

@KelseyAlfred true! At least she hasn’t snuck a full sized repeat of something renamed, like blitzen (just spice) in the 4pc set ??
