LOOK, THERE’S NO denying that Kylie Jenner is pretty business-savvy.

With a multi-million dollar make-up line under her belt, the 20-year-old has proven her critics wrong, and established herself as a credible name within the cosmetic industry.

And given her exposure to criticism on both a personal and professional level, we imagine that when she chose to name her blushers ‘X-rated’, ‘Hot and Bothered’ and ‘Barely Legal’, she knew she’d be in for a bit of backlash.

And Twitter is more than happy to give it.

Yesterday, the 20-year-old promoted her cosmetic range on Instagram stories, and it wasn’t long before Twitter went off on one.

Considering the average age of Kylie’s fanbase, Twitter users were of the opinion the names of the products were pretty inappropriate.

But something tell us this won’t affect sales…
