The much in-demand kits have become quite the hot commodity, with knock-offs flooding the market when the real deal sells out. There’s a danger in buying counterfeit cosmetics though; just ask the young ladies whose mouths were sealed shut when a bogus batch of Kylie Lip Kits was found to contain glue. To be sure, the only place to buy the kits is from the official site.

The “lip kits” themselves are simply liquid lipstick and a lip pencil. What makes them so popular is that the colors have been custom designed by and for Jenner herself. But what if your complexion and features don’t match what works for Kylie? What if you like the look, but want to save on your makeup budget?

We scoped out six of the best lip kits available online, finding less expensive options with a similar formula to the Kylie Lip Kit. We also uncovered high-value sets from top cosmetics brands, some with application guides and others that give you way more than a tube of lipstick and a pencil — all priced lower than the Kylie Lip Kit. Check it out and click through to shop.

1. Colourpop Lip Kit

As beauty blogger Stephanie Nicole pointed out in 2016, Colourpop’s Ultra Matte Liquid Lipsticks have a remarkably similar formula to Kylie’s Lip Kits. It should come as no surprise, as both brands have the same parent company, Seed Beauty. Where they differ the most in in price point. While the Kylie Kit runs for $29 plus shipping, you can score a Colourpop Lip Kit (Ultra Matte Lipstick and Lippie Pencil) from Amazon for around $20–with free shipping on Prime.

2. Buxom Plump and Contour Lip Trio

Use this trio of lip formulas to create a fuller look. It includes PlumpLine Lip Liner to add volume and definition, Big & Sexy Bold Gel Lipstick in a lighter shade for dimension, and Full-On Lip Cream as a final touch to make your lips look irresistible. A $30 value, get it now for only $20.
