This will be my first review & I am so excited to tell you all what I think about these products! As you can see by the title, I am reviewing two products from Kylie Jenner's cosmetic line! I have tried her lip kits & glosses before, so if any of you want me to review those for you just let me know! However, today is all about her eye products, specifically her Kyshadow Palette in 'Bronze' & Kyliner Kit in 'Chameleon'. She is coming out with more palettes later in the year and she also has other eyeliner shades other than the one I am reviewing. The palette retails for $42, it includes 9 eye-shadows inside the palette. Each shadow contains .05 oz of product. The Kyliner Kit, on the other hand, retails for $36 and includes three items. The Kit includes a synthetic small angled eyeliner brush, creme gel liner (.11 fl oz), and pencil liner (.04 oz). These products are expensive considering the amount of product you get in each, but you have to consider the brand and name on the brand is a lot of where the up-charge comes from. Besides the price being very high, I think that these products are great! Let me tell you why!

First off, the packaging is to die for! If any of you are a collector of packaging or packaging crazy like me, then you will appreciate the amount of detail and amazing quality of the boxes and their components.

I will start by reviewing the palette. Now if you are like me and have more then one palette than you are probably asking 'do I really need this?' and the answer is no. Now don't get me wrong the palette is great and has amazing colors with great pigmentation, but in reality we have seen this concept and the colors many times before. You do not need this. yes the palette is cute and the shadows are great but really its not the best of the best for $42. I will say the shadows are incredibly nice to blend on the eyes. There is some fallout when you first pickup the shadow, but that has never really bothered me. My favorite eye-shadows from Too Faced do the exact same thing, so that, to me, is not a big problem. Now the color selection on this baby is my dream. I love warm-toned, bronze shadows and this is the perfect palette for my tastes. If you like cooler toned browns and you don't like orange, then you may want to skip on this because that is basically the star colors of this palette. Also the quality of these is up to par with my Anastasia Beverly Hills shadows when it comes to how they blend and wear on my eyes. The only trouble and downfall of this palette is there is no mirror. Now i don't know why they chose to forgo a mirror, but that to me was the only mistake they made when creating this palette because when traveling this would be my ideal palette if there was a mirror. All in all, I would say if you are willing to spend the money and want to give it a go I highly recommend you do so, but if you are hesitant because you don't like the shades then wait because she is coming out with more palettes later this year. Like I said before, you do not need this palette, but if you are like me and you like to collect makeup and try new things, then go for it because this is a great everyday palette for the eyes! Hopefully this helped you decide whether you want to get it or not and gave you an idea of what to expect if you decide to purchase any of her palettes in the future. Below are some more photos of the palette and some swatches:

Now lets talk about the Kyliner!!
 |
| packaging of the eyeliner |
Initially I did not want to spend $36 on something such as eyeliner because I hardly ever wear it, but when she came out with this shade I couldn't resist! The shade Chameleon is described as soft shimmering plum shade. The other shades she has are brown, black , and bronze which to me seemed dupe-able and boring because they have been done before. There may be a dupe of Chameleon somewhere out there, but I don't care because this is so worth the price!! First off the pencil eyeliner is just as creamy as the lip-liners by Kylie and comes in the same type of packaging. You can sharpen it when it becomes dull. This is perfect for the waterline and tight-line! However the real star of the show is the creme gel liner and the brush for it. I have never been a big creme/gel eyeliner person. I lack the skills and precision it takes to make the perfect cat-eye *cries*, but with this brush and creme eyeliner suddenly I am more talented with my eyeliner application! The formula and pigment of this creme eyeliner is the best I have ever tried! The eyeliner does not dry too fast or slow, it gives you enough time to finish the line and fill in any sparse spots. I also found that the eyeliner did not get gooey or chunky in ares where I applied more. The eyeliner is not completely opaque with pigment, you may need to add more to get full coverage which, to me, is no problem. I hope they eventually decided to sell this kit in separate components because the brush is so nice for eyeliner and I am thinking it would be just as nice for brows! The brush is the perfect size and shape for both! I honestly have no bad things to say about this product and I am so happy I decided to buy this eyeliner kit! I bet the other shades are just as nice in color and quality! Highly recommend to all the eyeliner lovers out there, you will definitely love this more than I do!! Below are more pictures of the kit, its contents and a swatch:
