Kylie Jenner’s Lip Kits caused a storm in the beauty industry, with people willing to pay over and above to get their hands on a piece from the line.

However, photos posted to Twitter by makeup artist Jeffree Star, have pointed out a glaring issue with the Lip Kit glosses.

Jeffree posted the below photo with the caption: “So I got the new Kylie Cosmetics lip glosses…. SO disappointed in this product. That wand is unacceptable”.

Other Twitter users responded with similar images, showing how their Kylie lipgloss wands were also broken.

As he is a respected figure in the American makeup industry, Kylie was quick to respond to the criticism.

Taking time out from her Coachella schedule, the reality TV star posted the below to Instagram.

This is an old video from snapchat for anyone who missed it. I care a lot about the quality of my products. As you can see from my matte lips.. I changed my entire matte formula in the first month to be less dry and thick and I changed the wand to be more comfortable because I listen to you guys, and I love perfection. So good or bad, I love hearing your feedback. When I saw the problem with my lip gloss brushes I stopped all production and changed it. Life is a learning experience and we learn from our mistakes. Only a small amount of the old brushes were sold and I can now confirm that next week we are sending new brushes/glosses to EVERYONE that ordered on 4/1 ?… Only my new brush has been available since 4/1 and on the second release we sold over 200,000 of them ..? so that's amazing Love you guys more than you know. I'm always listening. -Kylie Ps. No need to email. We are automatically sending to everyone!

Explaining that this was an issue with some of the older lip kit brushes, Kylie said that the problem has since been rectified.

Anyone who received one of the dud products will now receive a new one in the post.

Jeffree seemed to be happy with that and tweeted the following:
