KIKO MAKE UP BY MILANO: Review


KIKO MAKE UP BY MILANO: Review


Kiko Milano is an Italian cosmetics company and I came across the store in Rimini. It was a typical high street make up store i refer to it as the Italian equivalent of Mac or Rimmel. On entering, I was so surprised how decently priced the store was. nail polishes from about £1.50, concealers and mascaras about £4, eyeshadows around £5 most blushes and base products were under £10 (great presents for the mother). So, being all jewish , as I love a good deal, I started to making my way around grabbing everything that caught my eye, including one of their lipsticks which I became obsessed with.

Having used and loved my products since returning from Italy, I began looking to see if they had an online store so I could replace the products I bought when they ran out. It turns out they do have an online store which is brilliant and they even have two stores in the UK, WINNER! I couldn’t believe that they had a store London. Both stores are in the London Westfields, White City and Stratford City so if you live in London or nearby that’s a great bonus for you.  If not don’t worry Kiko is dotted around most major or small towns of Italy, from Siena, Florence, Rome, Riccione etc.

The Nail Lacquer red is really red and stands out. It’s a gorgeous, sassy and seduction colour. Maybe something to wear over valentines day?  The price was not expensive at all. I would defiantly suggest 2 coats of nail varnish to achieve the perfect finish.

I also bought the 406 Surreal Magenta whilst in Florence, Tuscany. This is one of my favorite colours on nails. Perfect for autumn, due to its dark colour you wont be able to notice the chips, if there are any and well I love anything that sparkles so with its limited edition glitter, makes me shimmer.

I also use daily Kiko make up Milano 24 hour moisturizing & energizing cream. It is really good. I usually apply it first thing in the morning or last think and night feeling fresh. I bought it over the summer and well I don’t have such dark skin and get burn easily. However this product protected me from getting burnt because it had a SPF 15.

Kiko is good quality and a cheap make, I highly recommend to use it as I have become obsessed and stocked up with their products over the last 3 years. THANK GOD they finally opened two stores in London so no excuses ladies.
