The Kylie Cosmetics owner has a penchant for teeny-tiny inkings in red and black ink, including dedications to her daughter Stormi and her ex-boyfriends Travis Scott and Tyga.

She even has a matching tattoo with former friend Jordyn Woods, and one with BFF Anastasia Karanikolaou, and some special designs in honour of her family. Check out Kylie's tattoos and their meanings below.

1. '4:43'

   

   Kylie debuted her new tattoo of Stormi's time of birth on Instagram in July 2020.

   The numbers '4:43' can be seen on the inside of her forearm in tiny black font, representing the time Stormi was born on February 1, 2018.

2. 'Stormi'

   During Travis Scott's 28th birthday party, Kylie and her then-boyfriend Trav got matching 'Stormi' tattoos on the backs of their arms in honour of their daughter.

   Kylie's best friend Anastasia Karanikolaou got the same inking on her arm during the birthday bash. They were all done by Kylie's tattoo artist of choice, JonBoy (Jonathan Valena).

3. 'M'

   

   Kylie and ex-BFF Jordyn Woods got matching 'M' tattoos back in 2016.

   Unfortunately, their friendship ended three years later after Jordyn was accused of kissing Kylie's sister Khloe's boyfriend, Tristan Thompson.

4. 'La'

   

   After her relationship with Tyga came to a close, Kylie decided to give her 'T' tattoo - which she got in honour of her then-boyfriend - a little makeover.

   She transformed the 'T' into 'LA', in honour of her home city in California.

5. Butterfly

   

   Kylie and her then-boyfriend Travis Scott got matching butterfly tattoos on their ankles in 2017 shortly after they started dating.

   The butterfly has a special meaning for Scott - his hit song 'Butterfly Effect' was released that same year.

   Scott posted previously a photo of Kylie on Instagram with the song's lyrics as a caption, and both Kylie and Travis still frequently use butterfly emojis on social media.

6. 'T'

   

   Kylie famously dated rapper Tyga for three years until their split in 2017. During the relationship, Kylie decided to make things permanent with a tattoo dedicated to her man.

   Jenner got a tiny cursive letter 'T' in black ink tattooed on her ankle, which can just about be spotted in the photo above.

7. 'Mary Jo'

   

   Kylie got the name of her grandmother, Mary Jo, tattooed on her inner arm in red ink back in 2018.

   She revealed that the tattoo was written in her grandfather's handwriting.

8. Red heart

   

   Kylie, who has the biggest tattoo collection of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters, debuted another tattoo on her 18th birthday - a tiny red heart on the back of her arm.

9. 'Before'

   

   Kylie added to her 'sanity' tattoo in 2016 by adding the word 'before' in front of it.

   The ink, which was the famous tattoo artist Rafael Valdez, was debuted during one of her vacations with then-boyfriend Tyga and her friends, and now reads 'before sanity'.

10. 'Sanity' or 'sa-na-tē\'

    

    Back in 2016, Kylie got the phonetic spelling of the word 'sanity' tatted on her hip in red ink by tattoo artist to the stars Bang Bang.

    Three years later, she explained the personal meaning of the tattoo on Instagram during a vacations to Turks and Caicos.

    "My first tattoo was 'sanity' to remind myself everyday to keep it," Jenner wrote. "I’ve struggled with anxiety my whole young adult life and after my baby I dealt with all the internal ups and downs. I felt like I had to find myself completely again."
