"Beautiful is KA'OIR" by Keysha Dior
Cost: $14.99 USD
Where can I buy this? Only available online at KA’OIR
I have no idea where I stumbled upon this company so if you’re not familiar with it, let me tell you a little about the company.
ABOUT KA’OIR
KA’OIR is (pronounced KAY-OR) is a new cosmetic line by Keyshia Dior.
They feature Lipsticks, Lip-Pops (lip gloss), Nail Lacquer, tank tops (KA’OIR Kouture), and gift cards (available in $25, $50, and $100).
All lipsticks have a satin/matte finish and can be worn with or without a lipgloss. They have a stunning collection of 24 lipsticks, 16 lip-pops, and 14 nail lacquers.
KA’OIR is not tested on animals.
MY 2 CENTS
I placed an order with KA’OIR using the sale that they have constantly going on. I purchased from their MIX & MATCH 4 for $54 (USD), choosing between lipsticks & lip pops. I really wanted to try their lipsticks (more than anything…lipstick queen!) so I ordered 4 lipsticks:
- Jamaica: a tropical, bright green;
- Wifey: a soft pink;
- Gorgeous: a hot, magenta pink and;
- Love U: a nude, earthtone
I loved these lipsticks from the moment I received them.
The packaging of the lipstick is awesome because there’s a clear part to the lipstick that you can see the color through. I think all companies should incorporate a little window like this for their lipsticks. It’s just so much easier than memorizing a lipstick name and what shade it is.
I swatched the lipsticks on my hand, first:
Top to Bottom: Wifey, Jamaica, Love U, Gorgeous
And in just one coat, I got amazing color pay off.
Then I tried each one on my lips (I muted out my natural lip color with concealer first):
Wifey
Love U
Gorgeous
I was kind of disappointed in Gorgeous because I expected it to be a really deep pink with purple-ish undertones because that is what their picture depicted. Regardless, it’s still a great color!
Jamaica
These lipsticks have a waxy type texture but are still creamy. They glide on smoothly and are incredibly pigmented.
Shipping is a bit steep (somewhere along the lines of $15.99) so I would definitely order more than one to get your moneys worth.
I’m definitely going to place another order with KA’OIR and this time around, I would love to try their Lip Pops!
Great review – thanks for posting!
Thank you for reading! Have you tried KA’OIR lipsticks before?
I haven’t, but this post certainly makes me interested. I’ll have to check and see if they ship to Canada.
They definitely do, although shipping is quite costly ($15.99CDN)
I found this article today on KA’OIR lipsticks. I think I should bring it to your attention before you make a decision about purchasing these lipsticks:

I’m in the midst of contacting a KA’OIR rep to figure out what’s going on. If they can divulge any information.
It does show KA’OIR in a negative light but that does not change my experience or thoughts of this lipstick line.
Thank you so much for the heads up! With shipping being that steep, I would definitely want to purchase several to make it worthwhile. Looks like I need to save some pennies. Not sure I want like $80 in just lipsticks….lol…..okay, maybe I do.
If it helps, you can purchase 4 lipsticks for $54 + $15.99 shipping lol

Most companies do charge your credit card before the products are shipped out, though.
Is there any tracking information?
