LOS ANGELES (KGO) -- Just two months after Kylie Jenner stopped by her San Francisco pop-up, the 20-year-old is being recognized for building a $900 million fortune in less than three years.

The youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters is on the cover of Forbes Magazine.

Jenner is on verge of becoming the youngest self-made billionaire thanks to her cosmetics business.

It's easy to understand why -- here's a look at the huge line and crowds to get into the Kylie Cosmetics shop on Grant Avenue in San Francisco back in May.

Jenner launched the brand in 2016 and Forbes now values her company at nearly $800 million. If you include endorsement deals, her reality-show and TV programs then Jenner's worth balloons to $900 million, according to Forbes.
