KIKO Eye Shadow in shade 145 Review &Swatches !!


Hello friends …..How are you all? Today I want to share my Review on KIKO eye
shadow. I think most of you are not aware of this brand, so here are few details of this brand.

THE BRAND (KIKO)

Italian professional cosmetics brand that features a range of cutting-edge makeup, face and
body treatments. Safe and effective products of the highest quality, created to satisfy the

quality formulas with guaranteed performance, for a perfect fusion of quality and creativity.

The result of cutting-edge scientific discoveries and the latest fashion trends, KIKO continuously
renews itself with products that are always new and closer to the multiple ideals of beauty.



Price: 3 GBP for 3gms


Packaging

Eye shadow comes in black box with transparent lid so you can see the shade, something like
MAC box. Each eye shadow has embossed word KIKO in it. I like this little detail.

Availability:

They are available in following countries through their outlets.

Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Portugal, United Kingdom or else you can find online at
www.kikocosmetics.com

Staying Power:

Stays for about 6-7 hours on my lids, after which it fades a little.

                         With and w/o flash


Color and Texture:

It’s a coral pink shade with very fine shimmer. It is smooth in texture.

My Experience with KIKO Eye Shadow in shade 145:

The pigmentation is excellent. It does not have much shimmer, so it can be used as an

everyday colour. The texture is smooth and easy to apply. There is no fallout and I am highly
impressed with the quality. The staying power is decent. It stayed for more than 6 hours
without fading or creasing.

It can be used both during the day and evening time. It looks good on eyelids. It suits cool and
warm skin tones. They are affordable with a decent quantity too. The shimmer or glitter is very
subtle.

Pros:

Beautiful shade

Affordable.

Excellent quality.

Absolutely no fallout.

Does not crease.

Decent staying power.

It has fine shimmer.

It is suitable for sensitive skin.

Cons:

Availability is the only constraint other than this I didn’t find any..i got a perfect product for the
price I paid.

Will I Purchase KIKO Eye Shadow in shade 145 Again?

Yes…of course!! But not the same shade….i want to try other shades, as there are many shades
to choose from.

Do I Recommend KIKO Eye Shadow in shade 145?

Absolutely!! I’m sure those who try it won’t be disappointed

Have u ever tried KIKO ?
