For those of you who are unaware, let us share with you, Kylie is the founder and co-owner of the cosmetic company Kylie Cosmetics. She founded her beauty brand in the year 2014. At that point in time, her company was known as Kylie Lip Kits as she began by selling Kylie Lip Kits, a liquid lipstick and lip liner set, on November 30, 2015.

Over the years, the Kylie Cosmetics founder has gained quite a big following on various social media platforms like Instagram and more. At the moment, she is the third most followed person on Instagram. As of right now, she has 380 million followers on the social networking platform Instagram.

Is Kylie Jenner a billionaire?

The answer to the above question is a big no. In November 2019, Forbes magazine crowned Kylie Jenner a billionaire. At that time, the magazine claimed that the beauty influencer achieved billionaire status after selling 51% of her cosmetics company to Coty Inc. for $600 million, valuing the company as a whole at $1.2 billion.

Cory Inc. is a beauty business that owns brands like CoverGirl and MaxFactor. Jenner is still the public face of the beauty brand. Then, Forbes stated that the deal valued her remaining 49% stake at $588 million on paper. In the last couple of years, Coty Inc. has struggled with lagging revenue and executive turnover.

The European-based company, which also owns Clairol and OPI nail polish, is controlled by an investment firm that goes by the name of JAB Ltd. Since the year 2016, the stock price of the company has fallen to half of its original price. Then, it acquired a dozen cosmetics brands from Procter & Gamble.

In the year 2020, Forbes published another article in which the magazine admitted that all the numbers reported by them previously were false. The mind-boggling numbers were literally made up by Jenner’s accountants. Forbes titled the retraction article, “Inside Kylie Jenner’s Web of Lies – And Why She’s No Longer a Billionaire”

The Forbes May 2020 retraction article read, “Then there were Kylie’s financials. Revenues over a 12-month period preceding the deal: $177 million, according to the Coty presentation—far lower than the published estimates at the time. More problematic, Coty said that sales were up 40% from 2018, meaning the business only generated about $125 million that year, nowhere near the $360 million the Jenners had led Forbes to believe. Kylie’s skincare line, which launched in May 2019, did $100 million in revenues in its first month and a half, Kylie’s reps told us. The filings show the line was actually “on track” to finish the year with just $25 million in sales.”

Forbes went on to say, “Data from e-commerce firm Rakuten, which tracks a select number of receipts, suggests there was a 62% decline in Kylie’s online sales between 2016 and 2018.” The famous magazine continued, “The business was never that big to begin with, and the Jenners have lied about it every year since 2016—including having their accountant draft tax returns with false numbers—to help juice Forbes’ estimates of Kylie’s earnings and net worth. While we can’t prove that those documents were fake (though it’s likely), it’s clear that Kylie’s camp has been lying.”
