Lip kits from Kylie Cosmetics typically range in price from $27 to $29. But thanks to the brand's founder, Kylie Jenner, one lucky fan can say that they got a bundle for free.
On Sunday, Twitter user Megan Etter said their Kylie Cosmetics Lip Kit was previously stolen while at a bar. The person also said they would "never forget" the incident, which "hurts all over again" anytime they remember it.
Sometimes I randomly remember how someone stole my @KylieJenner lip kit at the bar and that shit hurts all over again. I will never forget ????

Kylie Jenner offered to replace the fan's lip kit, which they said was stolen
On Monday, Jenner responded with a tweet of her own, saying, "What color? I got you."

Etter quickly replied with the shade name of the lip kit, called Punk, and thanked the makeup mogul for her response. She also apologized for not answering sooner, as she'd been sleeping.

By Tuesday morning, the new lip kit had arrived at the Twitter user's doorstep.
"This is probably one of the nicest things someone has done for me," Etter wrote on Twitter. "Thank you so much for replacing my lipstick. I'm extremely grateful."

Almost immediately after Jenner replied to her fan, many on social media turned the Twitter exchange into a meme

Jenner isn't the only member of the Kardashian family to send free merchandise to a fan
She's also not the first member of her family to consequently face backlash after doing so.
In March, Khloe Kardashian responded to a fan on Twitter who said they'd have to work extra shifts to afford jeans from the television star's brand, Good American.
Awwwwww this is so cute!!!! I’m so happy you enjoy them
— Khloé (@khloekardashian) March 16, 2019
Shortly after the exchange, Kardashian sent a package of clothing to the fan, which many people criticized.
While some said that Kardashian's jeans were too expensive in the first place — Good American clothing ranges in price between $45 and $209 — others felt that the star was simply promoting her clothing line.
Helllloooo people.... her marketing/sales team sent the clothes and we are giving them exactly what they expected; OUR ATTENTION!
— Robyn Apryl (@robynhd) March 27, 2019
That’s cute. But what about all the other people working weeks to afford one pair? Khloe Kardashian is queen of the missing the point from her ivory tower
— Lee Marie (@leelaahearts) March 27, 2019
Some also pointed out that Kardashian appeared to send the package after facing backlash for her previous response to the fan, in which she said it was "cute" that the woman was willing to work extra shifts to purchase her clothing.
not to sound like a hater but this actually upsets me!! someone had to work a stupid amount of hours to afford ONE pair of jeans. A millionaire thinks it’s “cute” that ppl have to calculate & think how many hours they have to work to afford little things.
