Kylie Cosmetics

[Icecaramellatte]

Here's my tentative list of items I want from the collection:

1. 2 Ultra Glow Kylighters - King and Queen
2. 6pc Mini Matte Liquid Lipstick Set
3. Lip Gloss - Cherry Pie
4. 1 Lip Kit - Twenty
5. I Want It All Face Palette

Are you buying anything?

Definitely:
Beauty Book

Probably:
Makeup Bag

Maybe:
Queen Ultra Glow-pink highlighter
Twenty Lip Kit
cupcake gloss
mini lip set

The birthday collection isn't "grabbing me" at this time. I don't really know why, but the excitement is not there.

Having said that, I will probably get sucked into the hype and buy something. As usual!

I agree. It is not grabbing me as much as last year's collection. Maybe because I was hoping for more cream eyeshadows.

Although it took me longer than usual, I was able to order everything I wanted. I'm surprised that the first item to sell out was the Bedazzled Candy K. I saw many people complaining about the price, however, many people complained about the price of the Wet Set from the Vacation Collection and it turned out to be one of the more popular items as well. As of now, the second item to sell out is the King Ultra Glow. Everything else is still in stock.

I placed an order yesterday. I was pretty sure I was going to get the bundle as I wanted most products. However, seeing two bundles up threw me (I wasn't expecting that) and I had to rethink things. I decided to try and just add each piece. I decided to get the mini velvet set. So all in all it came out to $10 more than the bundle. And I did get everything. I was sure something would sell out as I added each item. I don't know if they have more stick or people weren't buying. I know that I passed up 3 or 4 launches for products to order Kylie thinking it was harder to get. It's been a tough week! Maybe people went with the other launches.

Yeah, I was surprised! I haven't bought from her since the Kim K duds, but I really liked the looks they did with the Birthday Book. I was dreading fighting the masses, but then I completely forgot until about 2 hours after launch! I was shocked that I could get the palette and twenty lip kit with no issue that far after launch. I'm excited and hope it doesn't take weeks to ship. This is my first Kylie powder product purchase. I was going to get Queen also, but I think the pink in palette or the couple icy pink highlighters I have are sufficient...plus I always make a mess of loose formulas and so never use them.

Have any of you had your order shipped yet/received your order? I received this email today in regards to the status of my order:



I placed my order during the initial launch of the collection on the 1st. In my opinion, I think all orders should have been shipped in the order in which they were received and all orders placed during the launch should have been shipped before the collection was restocked. At first, I thought that they may have been shipping out smaller orders first as they are faster to fulfill and then shipping out larger orders afterwards, however, I see people who ordered during the second launch and people whose orders were larger than mine posting their received orders all over IG, while others such as myself haven't even gotten a shipping confirmation. While I'm happy for everyone who received their orders in a timely manner, I'm a bit angry that Kylie Cosmetics has not improved in regards to shipping out orders in a timely manner, while they simultaneously take money out of people's accounts as soon as orders are placed and can hold onto your money for over a week without even a shipping confirmation. I'm usually super patient about these things, but to be honest, I'm quite pissed off about this now. I'm hoping that I'll receive a shipment confirmation within the next few days, but if I don't receive one by Friday of this week (which is a very generous amount of time to give them to ship out my order), I'll definitely be contacting them and expressing my displeasure about shipment time. There's no reasonable excuse as to why people whose orders were placed after mine and contain more items than mine have have been shipped out or received already while mine still remains unfulfilled.

I justgot got this email as well. Soo irritating. Maybe they'll send us a free gift for having to wait so long

 

[Icecaramellatte]

Ooh I didn't see Brittlovesmakeup original post. I'm not sure what the email says but I did get a shipping notice. Did you order a bundle? I think they run out of stock and hold shipment sometimes until all items are in stock. I don't know. It that is my guess.

I received both of my orders from the original release last week. I ordered the shadow book, mini velvets, cupcake and lip kit.

Usually I get a "we haven't forgotten about you" email and extremely delayed shipping. This time it all came very quickly.

I have only really played with the shadow book and really like it. I also received unsolicited compliments on the look I created with it. My Chanel SA asked what shades I was wearing bc she wanted to do something like it. She was surprised that it was KC.

The birthday shadow, blush & highlighter book for $54? I wasn't sure about bright pink shade.

Yes I used that product. I like everything in the book except the highlighter. It is too chunky and glittery for my taste.

I used the hot pink shadow as an accent color. It reminds me of the hot pink shadow from the MAC Barbie collection.

I agree! I really like my book! I think they curated the colors and finishes very thoughtfully. It will see a lot of use. I used the hot pink on my lower lash line, and I think it was cute. The highlighter is super glittery. I'm not sure how much I'll use it because it looks like fall out all over my cheeks, which is a shame because the color is lovely. The blush is gorgeous, but I wish it was more pigmented. I'm super fair and had to layer like crazy for it to show up on me.

I've been out of town and asked for the post office to hold the shipment. I got a confirmation of the hold but a day or so later I got an email that it could not be held and was going to the original address. I did not know what to think but I came home to find the box in front of my door. I haven't had the chance to play with the products but they look pretty. I may try a look with them tomorrow.

Just saw some of the info on the new collection coming out. So far it looks like one big skip for me. Not my colors at all.

There are a few items that I'm interested in, however, there is nothing that I feel like I MUST have. I like Wicked, Autumn, and Hazel (I'm unsure about Autumn and Hazel though because I don't really have a good idea of how they would look on my skintone). The eyeshadow palette is nice as well but it doesn't stand out amongst other eyeshadow palettes I'm currently looking to buy.

 

[Icecaramellatte]

I agree. Not must haves for me either. I like the purple palette but I have bought so many purple palettes lately. I like 2 of the lips but it can wait or I can skip. Plus, it seems so many of her things are going on sale lately. Maybe I'll wait for one. I do wonder what is coming for holiday.

 

[Haven]

I ordered one of the holiday eyeshadow palettes over two weeks ago, and it still has not shipped. Now I see that the brand is having yet another release of new products next week. My order had better ship soon!

I had stopped ordering from kc bc of the horrible CS, but I got sucked in by the holiday stuff. I will never learn.

I’m curious as to where her $360 brushes were made, I’m assuming China

 

[Icecaramellatte]

Ooh I've been trying to post this for a few hours and now I see there are new posts. I guess a few of us had the same idea today.

I went to the Top Shop pop up today. I got there later than I wanted, 1/2 hour after opening and then somehow I did see the large sign telling where the collection was. Any way, there was a line in the store but it moved quickly. I waited about 10 minutes. You could see most log the products from the line and there wasn't much there. I did see the salesperson remove the holiday eyeshadow palette tester when someone bought the last palette. I don't know if it was the Naughty or Nice palette but I think I saw a yellow shadow. They did have the red holiday lip kit. I don't remember the name of it but I remember there was something odd about the name. They did have a bunch of green holiday makeup bags. That was it for this year's holiday release.

I went to the store to see if they had the Rose Gold cream eyeshadow from last year. They didn't. I also thought I might pick up one of the highlighters but there were none. They did have a list of products and prices and it seems there was quite a bit that had sold out. They did have tons upon tons of the exclusive velvet lip set. I did not see the exclusive matte lip set. I think there was one offered. There was so little information available about what the stores were carrying. I only saw IG posts of the exclusive lip kits. They were raffling off the large holiday set from last years with the lip colors - maybe 10 of them, 3 cream eyeshadows, eyeshadow palette and white eyeliner. It may have included the silver makeup bag. I saw it near the display but I don't know if it was part of the set or they were selling it.

Also seen:
-tons of blushes
-lip kits in 22, grape soda, dirty peach, tons of brown sugar
-koko collection stuff - don't remember exactly what but I saw some lip singles. I'm not sure if I saw the lip set.

I think there is at least a week before the pop up is supposed to close so it would make sense that they would restock but who knows.

EDIT - It was the Naughty palette I saw as it was in a green box.

Oh, I was so sure you didn't order. I was meaning to come on here and confess and let you know that the they are seriously delayed.

I was good and sat out the launch. I didn't even go online. I ran errands around that time which helped. However, later on I checked to see what bundles they may have had and I saw the wet set. I had forgotten all about the wet set. I would have ordered just that but of course it was sold out. When they restocked a few days later, I caved since everything was available. I did get a "sorry your order is delayed" message quite a while ago. I was sure it would ship soon after that as it did the last time I got a message like that. Nope. Still unfulfilled. Pretty bad.

I shouldn’t have ordered. I stopped purchasing from her site because of the shipping delays and horrible CS. Same with colourpop. Haven’t ordered from colourpop in a long time.

I liked the look of the holiday palettes, so I ordered. Now I am deciding how much longer to wait before canceling.
