I would first like to start off by saying that I’m so happy with all of the success the Kylie Lipkit dupe posts are receiving! I’m so glad that all of you have been enjoying these stories and after reading all of your feedback on Instagram, I have chosen the luscious ‘True Brown K’ for my 3rd lipkit dupe post!
The Dupes
1. Colour Pop Ultra Matte Lipstick in “Limbo” ($6)
One of the most widely known dupes of ‘True Brown K’ is Colour Pop’s ‘Limbo’ Ultra Matte Lipstick. The colors can look quite identical depending on the lighting, but I wanted to find a photo that showed how they’re slightly different. When more lighting or a flash is used to show these swatches side-by-side, it’s evident that ‘Limbo’ is lighter with more reddish undertones. ‘True Brown K’ is exactly what it’s name implies. It’s definitely a TRUE brown, and does not have the warmer and red undertones that a lot of “dark brown” lipsticks have.
Buy at AMAZON or ULTA.
2. Jeffree Star Cosmetics Velour Liquid Lipstick in “Dominatrix” ($18)
Although Jeffree Star’s Liquid Lipsticks are more affordable than Kylie’s Lipkits, they can be just as hard to find online as they sometimes sell out just as quickly. However, I wanted to include ‘Dominatrix’ since it is such a similar shade to ‘True Brown K’. They are both true brown shades, although ‘Dominatrix’ is slightly darker than ‘True Brown K’.
Buy at AMAZON or BEAUTYBAY.
3. Lime Crime Velvetine Matte Lipstick in “Salem” ($20)
Just like Colour Pop’s ‘Limbo’ shade, Lime Crime’s ‘Salem’ is very close in color with the exception of the warmer red undertones. They become apparent with brighter lighting so keep this in mind when looking at side-by-side swatches.
Buy at AMAZON or LIMECRIME.
4. Ofra Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in “Brooklyn” ($19.90)
Finally to my favorite dupe! I personally think the Ofra Liquid Lipstick in “Brooklyn” is the closest in shade to ‘True Brown K’. As you’ll see in the above photo as well as the photo below (2nd swatch), ‘Brooklyn’ is a true brown with no warm undertones. The Ofra liquid lipsticks have an amazingly smooth formula and are also more affordable than Kylie’s lip kits, making them the perfect and my personal recommended alternative if you want True Brown K but can’t get your hands on it.
Buy at AMAZON, ULTA or BEAUTYBAY.
5. Dose of Colors Liquid Lipstick in “Chocolate Wasted”($18)
The last closest dupe to ‘True Brown K’ is the Dose of Colors Liquid Lipstick in ‘Chocolate Wasted’. As you’ll see above, ‘Chocolate Wasted’ is slightly darker, but still falls into the true brown shade category like Ofra’s ‘Brooklyn’ and Jeffree’s ‘Dominatrix’. The Dose of Colors Lipsticks are also well sought-after but ‘Chocolate Wasted’ is currently available on their website!
Buy at AMAZON, ULTA or BEAUTYBAY.
