Kylie has also had visited Smile Train’s local program. Kylie’s support of Smile Train was impactful in a short time. In 2016, she launched a special-edition lip kit in collaboration with the charity donating 100 percent of the proceeds from the pale pink lipstick (named “Smile”) to Smile Train. Kylie first launched the lip kit on Smile Day, and then relaunched the kit in January, both times selling out almost instantly.
