Last weekend I was in Barcelona and while I was walking around I saw a KIKO MILANO store, so I decided to go in especially since I can’t get KIKO MILANO products at home (except if I shop online).
What did I get?
Nail polish
I bought 2 sparkly (pearly) nail polishes. One is fuchsia with pink glitter and the other one is blue with green glitter (yes, I know that sounds kinda weird, but they are pretty colours).The bottles say number 502 and 530.
Mini review:
The pink one looks fine with just one coat (I opted for 2 though). The blue one needs two coats. They were great value for money (they were on sale, so mine cost 1.90 euros each!) and they don’t chip.
I love KIKO MILANO nail polish. They don’t go off in the bottle either. I have a nail polish I got 2 years ago and it is still in great condition.
Mascara
I got the Extra Sculpt Waterproof Mascara in black. It cost 8.90 euros.
Mini review:
I was really excited to try this product. My first attempt was a disaster. The wand is huge and I could not go into the lashes like I usually do. I smudged it everywhere, but even though I smudged it and I looked like a panda bear, I thought I’d give it another shot. So I did. This time I used half of the wand and applied it extra carefully. Slow motions. I ❤ the way it looked in the end. BUT I will never apply it if I am in a rush, it takes a lot of time to get it right, and you need to be very careful. The wand also has a lot of product on it, so you need to make sure you have only the amount you need. It also needs some time to dry. Would I recommend buying it? If you are on a budget and a bit clumsy with mascara, then no. If you like trying new things, then yes, because it does make your lashes stand out. Seriously. I was in love with the result (after the 2nd attempt).
Lip product
I got the KIKO MILANO Lip relief. This is a product that is supposed to hydrate your lips. This is promoted as an intensive stick.
Mini review:
My lips needed a bit of hydration. They felt dry so I grabbed this product. It has an SPF 15. It feels like any other lip balm. Yes, it’s nourishing and it leaves a very subtle shine, which is nice. The packaging is really pretty. Sure, I’d repurchase this one. It did what it was supposed to do.
Feel free to leave a comment below regarding your favourite KIKO MILANO products. Remember to follow this blog (check out the side bar on ways to do that). Keep in mind, I am a teacher, not a makeup artist. I review products the same way I would review them if I were talking to my friends about a new product I bought! This is not a sponsored post. I purchased everything with my own money. Thanks for reading!
So, that’s for now.
Talk soon xx
