From reality TV child star to beauty mogul, Kylie Jenner redefined fame and success. Discover her journey from the youngest Kardashian to self-made billionaire
👶 Early Life in the Kardashian Spotlight
Kylie Kristen Jenner was born on August 10, 1997, in Los Angeles. As the youngest member of the Kardashian-Jenner family, she grew up in the public eye thanks to the hit show Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which began airing in 2007.
While her sisters were already building fame, Kylie was quietly observing — and planning her own empire.
💄 Kylie Cosmetics: The Lip Kit That Changed Everything
In 2015, at just 18 years old, Kylie launched her first Lip Kit — a liquid lipstick paired with a lip liner. The product sold out in seconds and marked the beginning of Kylie Cosmetics.
What made her brand explode:
- Smart use of social media marketing
- Direct connection with fans
- Limited edition drops that created hype
By 2019, she sold 51% of Kylie Cosmetics to Coty Inc. for $600 million — valuing her company at over $1.2 billion.
📱 Social Media Powerhouse
With hundreds of millions of followers on Instagram, Kylie Jenner became the ultimate influencer. She changed how celebrities promote products and built a direct-to-consumer brand fueled by aesthetics and personality.
From Snap stories to product tutorials, her every post became a marketing machine.
💰 Billionaire Status & Controversy
In 2019, Forbes named Kylie the “youngest self-made billionaire” ever. While some questioned the term "self-made" due to her family's fame, her business results were undeniable.
Even after Forbes retracted the billionaire title due to valuation disputes, Kylie remained one of the highest-paid and most successful women in business.
👩👧 Motherhood and Personal Life
Kylie welcomed her first daughter, Stormi Webster, in 2018 with rapper Travis Scott. She later had a son, Aire Webster, in 2022.
Her choice to keep Stormi’s birth private showed a more mature, protective side of Kylie that fans deeply respected.
👗 Fashion, Style, and Public Image
From bold red carpet gowns to streetwear looks, Kylie is a global fashion icon. She’s worked with brands like:
- Balmain
- Dolce & Gabbana
- Adidas
Her daring beauty choices and trendsetting styles continue to influence millions of young women around the world.

Beyond makeup, Kylie has launched:
- Kylie Skin – Skincare line
