KIKO is probably that make up brand that has similar pricing to the likes of
Rimmel,
Maybeline etc. but I've always found it to have
higher quality. Since starting back college I've tried to start saving for summer & paying off my car so I can minimise my outgoings in the long run obviously (
because right now everthings going to bills and savings). So I set myself a challenge for the next few months by trying to find
high quality make up at lower prices.
I went to the
Glasgow fort to get my brows did, and on the way noticed that KIKO had a
huge sale so it would've been
unlike me if I never popped in for a look. After just having ran out of one of my foundations and I seen this as an
experiment to try out some new ones. Kiko had lots on the sale some with
50% off so I got colour matched grabbed some and got on with it.
Now recently all I've done is buy lip products soo it was kinda
obvious I'd pick up one, or three. Since I use baby wipes all the time I've been meaning to
invest in a good cleanser so I picked up some bits from that. So after that
quick 15 minutes in the shop I came out with a bag packed with stuff and
heres what I got;
So where should I start first... Well maybe about how
bloody cheap everything was. Ill get started with the
cleansing products; The Kiko
'Purifying Pads' I picked up for only
£3.95 reduced from £9-£10 (
sorry I can't remember exactly) & the '
Cleansing Foam' which again was £3.95 in the sale. Both items look like they are
store only content, because I've struggled to find more of the purifying pads online. Ive pretty much ran out of both these items already, but I've found my skin to be a lot more
clearer and softer when using these over the last few weeks.
Moving on I then picked up some
foundations a
liquid, cream & a
powder. The first one I got matched was the
Unlimited foundation (
basically because it had the same consistency as MAC Studio Sculpt) which was the only product
not in the sale at £14.90, but now is available for as little as
£7.40 depending on the skin tone - Mines is in
Neutral 40. Moving on I picked up the
BB Glow Compact in the shade 06, which is the cream foundation which I just wear everyday or
as a top up to the Unlimited foundation if I need
super high coverage. Im picked this up for about
£4.90 reduced from £12 or so. Finally for my face I picked up the standard
Compact Powder in Shade 105 for only £4.90 from £9.90. Thats like a
full face of make up for as little as £18 pounds.
Finally my lipstick habit got fed when I picked up 3 super pigmented and fab colours. Firstly I got two from the
Luminous Chrome Collection in shades 703 (
Metallic finish) & 500 (
Creamy finish) both for
£2 each. The next one I picked up purely because the
packaging was unreal for the price tag of £3.70, the
Intensely Lavish lipstick in the shade 05.
Unfortunately some of the products I purchased in store are
not seeming to be available online, if you have a KIKO Milano near you then I would
highly recommend going into the the store rather than searching online. But as usual I'll have everything
linked below (
that I can) hopefully to help you find the products or a store near you. I hope this was helpful and gave you an
insight into
Kiko Cosmetics. Have a great day guys, i'll speak to you soon.
