Kylie Jenner shared Mizzi Cosmetics homegrown Lip Luxe Whipped Lip Scrub and Honey Kiss Lip Balm as must haves for her famous pout when traveling.
More than 40 million of Jenner’s app and Instagram followers were treated to a video discussing favored items which the Kardashian sister carries in her travel bag. Details of the video have been shared by People, US Weekly, allure, and InStyle. While the majority of listed cosmetic items are well known, Kylie favors the all-natural Lip Luxe lip scrub and balm when tending to her lips.
“I love to carry a lip scrub with me. I always love to go the natural route…so this one is a nice one…it has pure honey, cane sugar,lemon and grapefruit oils, coconut oil, vitamin E, everything I love,” says Jenner.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s impromptu recognition has created quite a buzz for the small company and orders are coming in from all over the world. Additional endorsements by makeup artists, models and pageant winners alike are also playing a large part in Mizzi Cosmetics rapid growth.
Mizzi Cosmetics was created in 2014 and is run by stay-at-home mother of two, Brenda Mierzejewski, who concocts products in her own kitchen. “I am still trying to take this all in,” says Mierzejewski. “I had zero expectations after I sent her and her family our products to try just a few weeks ago. So to see her recognize my company publicly, for the world to see, was simply a blessing — an amazing one. Best of all, she truly loves our products. Kylie did a wonderful thing for our small business.”
The Lip Luxe line started as a homespun experiment to attempt to naturally cure the chapped lips of Mierzejewski’s children. All of the lip balms and lip scrubs are carefully formulated with natural ingredients, a vegan base and therapeutic essential oils. This combination provides healing and protective qualities with a high-shine and long-lasting finish.
Lip Luxe items are available online and through more than 25 high-end retailers and spas nationwide, including Chateau Elan Winery and Resort (Braselton, GA), The Spa of Essex (Essex, CT), and The Hotel Viking, Spa Fjore (Newport, RI).
Mizzi Cosmetics is a family-owned business located in the foothills of Portland, CT, and creator of the growing Lip Luxe products. Lip Luxe has received celebrity endorsements and was also featured in the 2015 Oscar swag bags. The brand has also received a wide range of print and broadcast media coverage throughout the US in addition to mentions in popular lifestyle and fashion magazines.
