We can hear Kris Jenner laughing from here.

At only 21-years-old, Kylie is the youngest self-made billionaire, Forbes has just announced. She has officially reached the milestone at a younger age than Mark Zuckerberg.

Since Kylie started Kylie Cosmetics in 2015 (which she owns 100% of), she has created one of the largest beauty empires in the biz.

The first few years saw products exclusively available online, and various pop-up stores. In 2018, Kylie signed a deal with beauty retailer Ulta, moving her products on their shelves.

“I popped up at a few stores, I did my usual social media—I did what I usually do, and it just worked,” Kylie tells the publication.

Forbes now estimates that Kylie Cosmetics is worth “at least” $900 million. 

Adding in the money she has already made from the company, she’s a billionaire!!!

“I didn’t expect anything. I did not foresee the future,” Kylie told Forbes. “But [the recognition] feels really good. That’s a nice pat on the back.”

Kylie credits a lot of her success to social media. 

“It’s the power of social media,” she said. “I had such a strong reach before I was able to start anything.”

After hearing the news of Kylie, her sister Kendall Jenner took to Twitter to share her excitement.

“HOLY MOLYYYYYYY 🏆🏆🏆” she wrote.
