Kylie, who is also the half sister of reality television personalities Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, has 100 percent stakes in the company. The report further adds that her company has minimal overhead costs with only seven full-time employees and five part-time ones. The manufacturing and packaging is outsourced to Seed Beauty. Brand endorsements and television appearances like
_Keeping Up with the Kardashians_ bring in more revenues for Kylie. However, critics question the self-made tag attached to the Forbes copy.
