Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog!
As soon as I saw KIKOS Summer Collection I immediately fell in love. The packaging is just beautiful, don't you think? All three of these products are under £15 each but I think that they look much more high end than that.
Moving on from the packaging to the actual products..
The mascara is £12.90 and I would best describe it as being a natural looking mascara. It's not thick and clumpy by any means so I found that I easily got length on my lashes but they weren't stuck together or clumpy. If you do want even fuller lashes then I would recommend just applying a second coating of mascara just to get a bit more thickness to your lashes.
The eyeliner is £8.90 which I think is really reasonable. I had a good feeling about this product and I wasn't disappointed. I find that this eyeliner makes achieving those perfect flicks on your wings so much easier! Having the option of creating a really fine line using the very tip or pressing on a little more to create a thicker line helps me get a better angle to my winged eyeliner and so far I seem to be getting them a bit more even to what I'm used to. I don't know whether thats just down to practice or not but I feel like I have a better chance of not looking like I've done my eyeliner with my eyes closed!
Finally the lipstick is £13.90 and one thing that I really like about this product is the magnetic closing on the lid. I love products like this, I just find them so handy if you just want to drop a lipstick into your bag - you have less worry of the lid coming off and your lipstick doing its own thing all around the bottom of your bag.
I love the lipstick itself, the consistency of the product is like a lip balm so it's so soft and nourishing to apply but the fact that it has a good pigmentation is like having the best of both worlds between a lip balm and lipstick.
There are lots more products to the collection but these are just the ones that I decided to try out, so please let me know if you've tried anything yourself or plan to.
Which one's your favourite?

Haha, at least I'm not the only one guilty of getting lured in by packaging!

This is exactly what happened to me, I needed a new eyeliner so I gave this one a go ♥
DeleteI picked up a few matte Kiko lipsticks when I was in the Birmingham store a couple of months ago and I wasn't impressed- they dried up so quickly and felt like wallpaper paste on my lips! (wah!)
ReplyDeleteThese products look gorgeous though- I'll give Kiko another chance!

Aw really?
DeleteThis was the first time of me trying their lipsticks.
I know how you feel though with 'matte' because I've had other brands matte lipsticks which were very drying ♥
The lipstick shade is so nice!! I have yet to get myself any KIKO products but this post has definitely tempted me!
