The whole world can't get enough of Kylie Jenner's liquid lipstick and lip pencil duo, but let's be real, they're expensive AF! With their $29 (P1,445.50) price tag, not everyone has the extra money (and patience for shipping!) for them.
For this edition of Cosmo.ph Beauty Wars, we put three Kylie Liquid Lipstick alternatives to the test. (Note: Unlike the original Kylie Lip Kits however, we didn't use lip liners.)
***
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm
Dupe for: Kylie Lip Kit in Dirty Peach
Price: P390
Where To Buy: SM Department Stores
What It Is: With its velvety smooth formula, it delivers a burst of creamy color to the lips and sets to a matte finish. It's lightweight, opaque, and its scent is ~delicious~!
Why We Love It: In terms of comfort, this wasn't the best. But for it's cream consistency and price, we'd take it over Dirty Peach any day!
The Balm Meet Matt(e) Hughes in Committed
Dupe for: Kylie Lip Kit in Harmony
Price: P775
Where To Buy: Beauty Bar
What It Is: This liquid lipstick, with a vanilla-mint scent and comfortable formula, will stick to your lips without being ~clingy~!
Why We Love It: We had to do a double take when we wore this because it looked EXACTLY like Harmony. After eight hours of wearing Committed, we couldn't believe that we still had the rosy nude hue on. This even wore longer than Harmony and was a little tough to remove, but we didn't mind at all since our lips were still moisturized and soft!
Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipstick in It's Happening
Dupe for: Kylie Lip Kit in Okurrr
Price: P1,272
Where To Buy: Sephora.ph
What It Is: Too Faced's liquid lipstick has a rich, creamy, yet lightweight formula that glides onto the lips like a gloss and dries down to an ultra-matte, opaque finish—ensuring that the lips will always look and feel comfortable and kissable.
Why We Love It: It easily glided over and stayed on—as long as we didn't eat. Also, we noticed that by the end of the day, the lipstick caked and creased on our lips.
