When Kylie Jenner rolled out a new line of electrolyte packets at Coachella earlier this spring, the festival launch raised some eyebrows and prompted plenty of takes online. How does a drink company go from selling canned vodka sodas to offering up wellness-focused hydration powders? The electrolyte mixes contain collagen, hyaluronic acid, and are marketed for skin replenishing health. Since launching in April, K2O by Sprinter has sprung to the top of the TikTok Shop charts and generated $4.3 million in sales. #kyliejenner #electrolytes #wellness #kardashians #billionaire
