Kylie Skin: The Basics

Hey there!

This is my first ever blog post, so we'll see how this goes!

I started using Kylie Skin about a year ago. At the time I was quite skeptical about how good the products would actually be. I'm a huge Kylie Cosmetics fan, but I thought that there might be so many thing that could go wrong with skincare, that I was worried it would irritate my sensitive skin. My Mum thought it was just another expensive fad, just another company with a famous face attached to it, but boy was she wrong! She even ended up buying me the set for Christmas because my skin reacts so well to it!

When I placed my first order, I went and purchased the entire set, which could have been a huge mistake! I was very impressed with the short shipping time (much quicker than Kylie Cosmetics). The day after it arrived I started my new skincare routine, although I will admit I was extremely nervous that I would be allergic come out in a rash. I couldn't have been more wrong! The products are so gentle on the skin, and don't leave your face feeling stripped at all. The foaming facial was is probably my favourite facial product, as it is super gentle, and does not dry out my skin.

The makeup wipes are also a miracle worker! I have tried almost every makeup wipe on the market, and they all leave me feeling as though my face is on fire, even Simple's wipes, so I was left using the Body Shop camomile balm, which was such a hassle 😭. I was anxious when I tried Kylie's wipes, but the first time I used them I was speechless. I yelled to my Mum "my face isn't burning!" I raved about them to her for the next 6 hours as I could not believe that my skin had not reacted to them! After that, I bought 5 more packs!

When Kylie launched the body range last summer, I knew I had to try that too! Again, I was nervous when ordering them as I have extremely sensitive skin, and all the body scrubs I have used in the past have left me with rashes. I can't even use most Body Shop products anymore, it's that bad. But not Kylie's scrub! It's the first scrub I've used in years where I haven't been left itchy and red. I'm so glad because the product is amazing, and lasts forever! The same can be said for the SPF oil! That stuff is amazing! It may only be SPF 30, but its better than some factor 50 suncreams I have used! As a redhead who burns easily, I religiously use factor 50 from Nivea, but this SPF 30 worked even better, as I didn't burn at all during my 2 week holiday!

Last winter, Kylie released a hydrating face mask and lip mask. WOW! These products are also incredible! I can go to bed putting the lip mask on extremely chapped lips, and I'll wake up in the morning with super smooth lips! With the face mask, I leave it to sink in overnight, and my skin is super soft when I wake up. The new lip scrub, which was released only a few months ago, is also amazing! The smell is incredible, and the fact that it comes with a spatula is even better! A little really does go a long way, and it is perfect to use before applying the hydrating lip mask!

So, I was completely wrong to be nervous about Kylie Skin when I first ordered it! I highly recommend it to anyone out there who is interested in trying it!
