How Much Smaller Are Kylie's Bday Mini Mattes?

Mini sizes can be so cute. In this case, minis are supremely sexy! The Kylie Cosmetics Birthday Edition Collection includes a set of Mini Matte Lipsticks. Kylie Jenner built her brand on the back of her mega matte Lip Kits. She is celebrating her 19th birthday on August 10 with special products, so it was only right that she created a collection of tiny tubes of her signature liquid lippies. The Mini Matte set is housed in gorgeous, gold packaging. There are six shades — Candy, Dolce, Exposed, Koko, Kristen, and Leo. The collection is comprised of classic neutrals, the super new, strawberry red Kristen, and the Birthday Edition Leo, which is maroon. There is something for everyone with the Kylie Jenner Birthday Edition Mini Mattes.

But how much smaller are the vials of Mini Mattes? How many ounces of liquid lipstick do you get?

The Mini Mattes, which are $36 for the collection, are 0.02 fl oz./oz. liq/0.65 ml. Translation? Pocket-sized! The full-sized, OG liquid lipsticks are 0.11 fl oz./oz. liq/3.25 ml. It may seem like a super tiny amount of product in the mini versions, but think of it this way. You are getting six (!!!) shades, so you can wear whatever shade suits your matte mood. You can switch up your lip look every day with these, because #variety.

Also, the Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kit liquid lippies last forever. The formula stays put and doesn't budge, even after eating. It's not like you'll be reapplying a couple coats every five seconds and therefore running out of product quickly. In fact, as a Lip Kit user, I sometimes go four to five hours without a touch up. So there's that.

Big things come in tiny packages. You will get statement lips from just two to three swipes of any of these liquid lippies.

The Mini Matte collection is certainly the best way to sample a variety of Lip Kit colors. Once you decide which of the enclosed hues is your fave, you can then buy the full-sized edition. You can also try and mix and match with the shades in the Mini Matte Collection. Why not do an ombre lip? Or custom combine neutrals? So. Many. Options.

The Birthday Edition Collection will be restocked on Thursday, August 4 at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT. Why not scoop up the Mini Mattes at that time?
