Kylie Jenner has found herself in another controversy after posting images from her brand's Valentine's collection. The collection includes various heart-shaped makeup products with bright red packaging, but the one product that caught the internet's eye was the liquid lipstick.
The lipstick is packaged in a heart-shaped tube with a red cap. Fans found it uncannily similar to the liquid lipstick from Trixie Cosmetics, drag queen Trixie Mattel's brand. Even Trixie addressed the issue in a funny Tiktok video with the caption, "Kylie I'm calling the police."

Trixie fans upset with Kylie Jenner
After Kylie Jenner posted a sneak peek of the lipstick on January 26, fans started tagging Trixie to let her know about the similarity. Some fans even asked her to sue the company. Here are a few responses from Twitter:
This is not the first time fans have been disappointed in Kylie Jenner's products. The influencer launched her swimsuit line in 2021, which received disappointing reviews from consumers. According to reviews, the product was see-through, poorly made, and impractical.
