Kylie says starting her makeup line was a challenge: "My mom thought I was going to be stuck with lip kits in my garage for the rest of my life"

Kylie Jenner recently opened up about the challenges she faced during the initial days of her makeup line - Kylie Cosmetics. In an interview with actor Jennifer Lawrence for Interview magazine, the entrepreneur revealed her mother, Kris Jenner had her doubts about the first product of the makeup and beauty line.

Jenner and Lawrence discussed personal life, skincare, work, and motherhood during the interview published on November 27. The 26-year-old had her share of struggles to start a brand from scratch. She also agreed that Kylie Cosmetics had a hard time gaining traction and thriving like it’s doing now.

At one point in the interview, Jennifer Lawrence went on to ask -

“You were a young teenager that was experimenting with your own makeup. What was the biggest challenge from taking that to actual reality?”

“a lot of people think that influence makes everything easier, but a lot of times it can obviously be a hindrance.” she added.

To this, Jenner opened up about how hard it was to “prove people wrong” when building something from square one.

“Proving people wrong was a challenge, but so was building it from the ground up,” Jenner said.

The entrepreneur further went on to recall the initial days of she and her mother, Kris Jenner started the brand.

“It was me and my mom and we never made a makeup line,” she said.

“We didn’t know where to start. We didn’t have anyone helping us. And my mom thought I was going to be stuck with lip kits in my garage for the rest of my life.” Jenner added.

Before Kylie Cosmetics became a sensation and broke the internet Kris Jenner was worried and advised to prepare for a failure.

“She was like, ‘You better be ready, Kylie, because you might have a lot of lip kits in your garage for the rest of your life, so you better love these colors,’” Kylie Jenner recalled.
