(NewsNation) — Kylie Jenner, the youngest in the Kardashian-Jenner clan, has made a name for herself in reality TV by becoming a successful entrepreneur and amassing a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Here is a look at how Jenner, 28, earned her $700 million, making her the second-richest member of the family behind her sister, Kim Kardashian, who’s worth an eye-watering $1.7 billion.
Kylie Cosmetics
Jenner launched her cosmetic company, Kylie Lip Kits, in November 2015 when she was just 18 years old, selling lipsticks and lip liners, according to WWD.
In 2016, she gave the business a new name — Kylie Cosmetics — as she expanded her product line and increased production.
The cosmetics company brought in $177 million between October 2018 and October 2019. One month later, she sold 51% of the company to Coty Inc. for $600 million, netting about $340 million after taxes.
In March 2019, Forbes named Jenner the youngest self-made billionaire ever at 21, but later retracted that claim after it was revealed the family had inflated the size and success of her cosmetic business.
Jenner still owns 44% of Kylie Cosmetics, Forbes reports.
Kylie Jenner’s real estate
The youngest child of Kris Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner also has a sizeable real estate portfolio.
She bought a $2.7 million home in 2015 in Calabasas when she was just 17, selling it for $3.15 million in 2017.

The entrepreneur bought a $12 million Cape Cod-style mansion in Hidden Hills in 2016. This 13,000-square-foot home, which is her primary residence, features eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
In addition to her primary residence, Jenner has bought a few homes in Hidden Hills, including a vacant plot she bought in 2017 for $5 million and sold for $5.35 million.
Other properties she’s purchased and/or sold include:
- A Beverly Hills home she bought with her ex-boyfriend and father of her two kids, Travis Scott, for $13.45 million, which they put on sale for $22 million in 2022
- An undeveloped plot of land in La Quinta, California, for $3.25 million
