Kylie Jenner's beauty brand, Kylie Cosmetics, has reached a remarkable milestone - a decade of success! And to commemorate this special occasion, she's taking us back to the era that started it all, the King Kylie Era.
A Blast from the Past: The King Kylie Aesthetic
Kylie's iconic look from this era was a bold departure from the traditional Kar-Jenner palette. She embraced vibrant colors, defined brows, and a grunge-inspired flair. Her signature teal-blue ombré hair and bold matte lips became an entire aesthetic movement, fueled by the creativity of Tumblr.
In a world of 'clean girl' fatigue, it's easy to yearn for the nostalgia of the colorful and experimental makeup trends of the past. And that's exactly what Kylie's delivering with her limited-edition collection, just in time to spice up our beauty routines.
The Anniversary Collection: A Journey Through Time
The Kylie Cosmetics anniversary collection is a celebration of the brand's roots. It features a diverse range of products, including a 10-pan eyeshadow palette, matte lip kits, lip glaze glosses, a highlighter, and a highlighter brush. Each item is a nod to the originals, yet versatile enough to create the hottest makeup trends of 2025.
Let's dive into the details of this nostalgic collection:
King Kylie Eyeshadow Palette:
This palette is a true statement piece, with an array of cool-toned, multidimensional shades. From frosty blues to teals and greens, and even a rose gold, it's a far cry from your typical neutral palette. The names of the shades, like '2014', 'Ombré', and 'Kymajesty', add a fun twist, and the palette's unique California license plate shape makes it a collector's item.
King Kylie Matte Lip Kits:
Kylie, the lip kit queen, has blessed us with four limited-edition shades of her classic liquid lipstick and lip liner duos. 'A Decade' is a soft, beige-pink dream, paired with a contrasting brown-beige liner. 'Kylie Jenner Lips' is a warm rose duo, creating that iconic 2016 gradient effect. The other two kits pay homage to the brand's originals, with 'True Brown K', a deep chocolate brown, and 'Dead of Knight', a bold black.
King Kylie Supple Lip Glaze:
Kylie's love for high-shine, mirror-like gloss is evident in these three limited-edition shades. 'Like' is a sheer, peachy beige with gold shimmer, inspired by the original shade. 'Literally', another OG favorite, is a warm brown. 'She's Back' is a sheer chrome, adding a modern twist. These lip glosses offer a gel-like glaze formula, providing hydration and a plush, plump appearance.
King Kylie Loose Powder Highlighter:
The '2016 makeup' look wouldn't be complete without a blinding, pearlescent highlight. The King Kylie Loose Powder Highlighter in '3 Strikes' is inspired by the brand's original warm champagne shade. The name might just be a subtle hint at Kylie's new song, '4 Strikes'. The collection also includes a soft, fan-shaped highlighter brush for precise yet blended application.
This collection is a celebration of Kylie's journey and a nod to the iconic looks that defined an era. It's a must-have for beauty enthusiasts and a fun way to experiment with nostalgic trends.
And here's the controversial part: Do you think revisiting these trends is a clever move or a step backward? Should we embrace the past or focus on creating new, unique looks? Let's spark a discussion in the comments!
