TOP 5 BOTTOM 5 KIKO MILANO // My best & worst makeup recommendations

[@pattyiwamoto7163]

I love the kiko lipsticks, it’s my favorite product.

Hi Maaike I agree the shadow sticks are great, but probably my most used Kiko product is the water shadow in light taupe. It's just a fabulous shade and I've hit pan, which goes to show how often I've used it. I actually bought a back up of that shade and I can't remember the last time I bought a back up of anything. I have a few other shades and really like them, but light taupe is my most used shade. I like their liners also and they're a decent price point. I am tempted by the face powder, but worry it might be too yellow for me - my shade in Hourglass is ethereal light (I've been using this powder every time I do my makeup to set my undereye and it's only half done after two years, so despite the initial investment price it's well worth it for me). The shadow sticks are my next most used Kiko product and I have several shades of those. I often use them as a smudgy liner along my bottom lashline, as well as using in their own right as an eyeshadow for a quick look. I have a couple of the LM and the Kiko are just as good I agree. I haven't tried any of their palettes and truthfully their complexion products eg foundation is far too yellow/dark for me in any I have seen, but I'm even paler and cooler toned than you are. It's a brand I do want to try more from though. Best wishes.

I need that back in my life. I used to own it and your comments are making me want it all over again.

@@FloatinginDreams Lol that's funny that I'm influencing you for a change.

Hi, Maaike! I love Kiko because when it's good, it's *really* good. Totally agree with you about the shadow sticks and fusion powders. Bottom 5? The baked bronzers made me looked orange, and I'd bought both the available shades to make sure. Off topic, great news that Feel Unique becomes Sephora UK in a few days. If they ship to NL, I'm in trouble!

[@FloatinginDreams]

Ooh that's a great tidbit of news that i had missed. Let's (not) hope they ship beyobd the UK. It would def beat cusomer service of the French website I'm sure.

i am happy kiko has colored mascara’s in their permanent line :) talking about failed products from them (for me personally) - i’ve decluttered all my kiko blushes. just because i prefer shiny blushes but those from kiko have metallic texture which emphasises my skin texture. i haven’t tried kiko’s regular matt blush tho. i definitely want to get this periwinkle shadow stick now!

[@FloatinginDreams]

Oh I hear ya! I tried one of their super metallic highlights and I had a similar issue. Sometimes something can just be too much of a good thing.

[@andreiadetavora8471]

I know this a na old videeo. But you look so good with that makeup!!

[@danai4117]

I have enjoyed the jelly stylo lipstick a lot. It gives a wash of colour just enough to make your lips pop but not overpower your look. Their lip pencils are also nice.

[@FloatinginDreams]

Thanks for the tips. Those stylo lipsticks have been mentioned several times now. Will have to try them.

[@carolynmareck5112]

Oh, before I even watch, that shirt!! I love it!

[@FloatinginDreams]

Thanks! It is one of my vintage gems.

[@angeshka]

Kiko glosses are great imo!

[@FloatinginDreams]

I have heard great things about their glosses! I have yet to try them.

[@ainakunigelyte]

How does the radiant powder hold up through out the day? :)

[@Brilliantnash]

Best products from Kiko are their bronzers, blushes, highlighters and powders. They also do nice lippies, lippencils and liquid eyeliners. Worst are their foundations, they are either too yellow or too pink, they are lacking true neutrals. My favourite skincare product is discontinued, a very nice powder scrub. I would always suggest to wait for a sale and be aware that they usually recycle the same blush and bronzer shades over and over again in their LE so if you miss out on that bronzer from LE x, you'll be able to get it in LE y or older collections.

[@FloatinginDreams]

You're so right about their LE products. So many doubles!

[@chiara8706]

Aw, I'm Italian and I've tried some face items from Kiko... Don't worry, I become a Simpson too and I'm a neutral undertone/light skin...

[@FloatinginDreams]

Aw that's a shame.

[@nicolemoscatelli7571]

I really love Kiko Milano especially the eye shadow sticks. It is a shame not many people do not review them.

[@FloatinginDreams]

Luckily I have reviewed them back when I had quite a few. Link is in the description box.

[@leahmiranda8359]

I’ve never tried a single thing from the brand! How did that happen?😂 The brand used to be sold at Ulta….I don’t know if they still are. I can see myself checking.. thanks for letting us know which products to prioritize. I’m a powder gal. I’d love to try the pressed powder. I hope you had a great weekend 💛

[@FloatinginDreams]

They are still available through Ulta I believe, but they should also have an official US Kiko website that sells more of the products.

[@Lennroe]

Kiko lipsticks are sooo good. I feel like it's kinda psychological trick, because I would readily buy a MAC lipstick for 15-20€ any time cause it's "so cheap" but I am reluctant to spend 8€ on a Kiko lipstick because "it sure is going to be on sale for less" even though I find them equally good. The shadow sticks are gorgeous. But I definitely agree on the undertones and I feel because they have so many things, it's also hard to find like swatches of everything in similar light on the same skintone, because it's not that cheap for influencers to buy the full range... But their pictures on the website just aren't that accurate and with base and cheek products and some lipsticks it is just really tricky.

[@FloatinginDreams]

For some products they don't even have swatches. It's frustrating. And buying Kiko all the time can get expensive as you say. I know if I were to do videos with their products like I do with Essence and Catrice it would do well but they are just a touch too expensive for me to have it be worth it. Also because they release so many similar products. It would so greatly inflate my makeup collection and I'd probably just declutter it in the end. It would be such a waste.
