This Maroon Lipstick Might Be Kylie's Best Yet

by Marie Southard Ospina

Well, if anyone was going to have our backs in the transition from summer to fall, it was always going to be King Kylie. Teasers for Kylie Jenner's Birthday Edition Collection have me asking: When is Kylie Cosmetics' "Leo" Matte Liquid Lipstick coming out? After all, the maroon hue — which Jenner has apparently been wanting to create for quite some time, according to her Snapchat — is just the thing a beauty lover needs to make the swap from summer brights to deep autumnal hues.

While sharing Snaps of the myriad of beauty products to be included in the Birthday Edition line — including a Mini Matte Liquid Lipstick Set, Crème Eyeshadows, and the Kyliner Kit — Jenner announced that all new products would hit KylieCosmetics.com on Monday, Aug. 1. We have to act fast, though, people: These gems are only going to be sold until the name-day of King Kylie herself (aka Aug. 10). Set your alarms to 3 p.m. PT time tomorrow, because something tells me everything is going to sell out fast.

As for me, I can't take my eyes off the "Leo" lipstick, aptly named, no doubt, for Jenner's astrological sign. As with everything in this collection, it's infused with real gold. But the shade is more akin to a crisp autumn leaf. The kind that probably started out bright red, but hit that perfect burgundy shade once the temperatures started dropping.

Jenner said in the above Snap that she's been "waiting for the perfect moment to put out a maroon shade," and the final month of summer seems like just that.

Well, guys, I think we found the lippie to take us from late summer days into early fall nights.
