People Are Pissed At Kim Kardashian For This Detail On Her New Contour Kits

In case you havent heard, Kim Kardashian is following in little sister Kylie Jenners footsteps and wading into the beauty business.

Last week, Kardashian announced the upcoming launch of herline, KKW Beauty, and then shared a few deets about what we can expect.

We now know the official launch will take place on June 21 and the first product you can get your hands on will be a contour kit.

At theWomens Summit last week, Kardashian shared,

I think with everything that Ive done, I change my looks up all the time, but the one thing thats consistent is contour. So were doing a cream contour with the launch with an amazing dual-ended brush to blend it, and theres a highlighter kit with it. It all comes together.

So now you can have lips like Kylies and the rest of your facelike Kims. What more can we ask for really?

Anyway, the 36-year-old is quite excited about this new endeavor.

At the sameevent, she told the audience,

These are all projects Im doing full ownership every last detail from the box, to the packaging, to being in the factory, and feeling every packaging detail Im a hundred percent involved in and thats so prideful for me

Its interesting that the reality star mentioned being involved in every detail, specifically packaging, because thats exactly what has Twitter disappointed at the moment.

Fans got their first look at how the contour kits will arrive,and theyre seriously pissed at the cheap look.

For the #KKWBeauty contour sticks being $48 at least give some decent packaging not a sealed ziplock bag /:

In fact, many people think itlooks similar to food storage and other items that, uh, arent makeup.

Anyone else see similarities Her packaging is disappointing. #kkw #kkwbeauty #kardashian #beauty pic.twitter.com/98qq7dlQg5

Ok but why does the packaging for KKW Beauty look exactly like the ready to eat meals my dad gets in the military pic.twitter.com/vNtzjlcoqp

Why does KKW Beauty packaging look like MRE packaging?

Fans still seem excited for the makeup itself, though.

The shade range for @kkwbeauty is bomb but the packaging is turning me off. Not ideal for a MUA. Unless you can depot them?

The packaging reminds me of Forever21 makeup. However don’t judge a book by it’s cover. Trial & error. Congrats Kim!

Of course, there are always two sides. A few people rushed to Kardashians defense.

Loving the packaging on @KimKardashian‘s new makeup line! #KKWBEAUTY

@sighyeahnipples the colors of the packaging is beautiful in itself already

Its worth remembering Kylies Lip Kits, although hugely successful, have had their fair share of problems, too.

Plus, thisisonly the first product from KKW Beauty, so things are bound to improve based on user feedback.

Speaking on how she uses social media, Kardashian told the audience how important she thinks Twitter is for connecting with her fans.

She said,

I love the conversation with people. I think people love to promote, but for me, I listen a lot.

Well, Kimmy, Twitter has spoken and does not like your packaging. Are you listening?
