Cape Town – Makeup artist, Vlada Haggerty has accused Kylie Jenner of stealing her ideas to promote Kylie cosmetics.
According to Buzzfeed, suggestions that Kylie was stealing Vlada’s ideas originally surfaced in December 2015 when Kylie shared a picture hinting that she was releasing a metallic lipkit.
This exact picture was shared on Vlada’s Instagram in July 2015.

Vlada also shared a screen shot of an article suggesting the image belonged to Kylie Cosmetics. Kylie then added a credit to Vlada before deleting the post all together.
In fact if you look at Vlada’s Instagram, the logo for Kylie’s lipkits is strikingly similar to images that Vlada had posted before Kylie’s lipkits were even produced.
The accusations have since resurfaced after Kylie Cosmetics shared a picture almost identical to a picture Vlada shared two months ago.
Here is Vlada’s pic:
Here is the Kylie Cosmetics version:
While Vlada wasn’t the only one who noticed, she shared a comparison of the two images with the caption, “Really @kyliecosmetics? Haven't you gotten enough 'inspiration' from me already?
“Left is a the work @juliakuzmenko, @brittrafuson and I shot a few months ago and right is @kyliecosmetics new campaign. (sic)”
