People are accusing Kylie Jenner of repackaging old lip kit colours for a higher price
After her legal battle with Kylie Minogue over trademarking the name "Kylie" as well as being accused of copying another make-up artist's work, Kylie Jenner is in hot water again - this time, with her customers for her limited-edition lip colours.
Some fans noticed this week that the shade 'Blitzen,' from Kylie's special Holiday Collection (a persistent source of drama unto itself) looks a lot like preexisting berry shade "Spice."

The biggest difference, as far as anyone can tell: "Blitzen" was a part of a mini lipstick set that sold for $36 (approx £28.80), while a stand-alone "Spice" Lip Kit costs just $29 (approx £23.10).
Beauty lovers were not pleased with this finding. Many took to Twitter to confront the mogul with accusations that she repackaged an old product and marked up the price for unsuspecting fans.
Why are Spice and Blitzen the same exact shade just different packaging? I'm so mad 😒🙄 @kyliecosmetics @KylieJenner pic.twitter.com/BQiPdjmCFI

the description for spice is a deepened raspberry-plum, and Blitzen is apparently a warmer version of that @KylieJenner please explain HOW pic.twitter.com/NUEoqlC7SD
