Kiko Milano Cosmetics Review


Sometimes there comes a point in your life where you have to move on to bigger and better things, in my case my bigger and better adventure happened when I left my part time job in order to start my full time apprenticeship as a trainee stylist. With this transition I had a joined leaving do, where my previous colleagues contributed to my leaving present, this is where my Kiko Milano make up came into play. I was so grateful to have worked with such lovely people and their beautiful gifts reflected the effort they put into buying my presents. 

I'm already a fan of Kiko Milano's makeup so admittedly this was the perfect gift for me. I received a 3D Colour and Glow Blush, a Smart Lipstick, two Cream Crush Eyeshadows, Volume Attraction Mascara and the Rebel Bounce Blush. My favourite product here however had to be my lipstick, as I was in desperate need of a new one and the colour compliments my skin tone. 


This product has quickly become apart of my daily makeup essentials, the creamy texture of the stick, smoothly slides along the skin to create a colour correcting and smooth complexion. It adds colour to my cheeks as well as giving me a natural healthy glow. 
3D Colour & Glow Blush

As I previously mentioned in my E.L.F Cosmetics post, Iv never been a massive fan when it comes to blushes, however when applied with the Colour & Glow Blush stick the product offers that extra bit of colour into your cheeks, giving you a natural glow. 
Rebel Bluncy Blush

I was pleasantly surprised by this product as the mascara wands I normally use are thin and allow little amounts of product on the wand, allowing more control, where as thicker wands in my experience create a more clumpy look and create an over done look (also known as spider legs). Although the brush is a little thicker than what I am normally used to, the final outcome made my lashes stand out, giving them a fuller and more volumised look. 
Volume Attraction Mascara

These eyes shadows are my absolute fav! The texture of the Cream Crush range is super creamy and blends perfectly. What I also love about these eyeshadows is you only need a little bit of product on your brush to create a high pigment of colour on your lids. 
Cream Crush Eyeshadow - 05
Cream Crush Eyeshadow - 03

As I mentioned previously, this product was my favourite out of all the items I received. Although I love all of my new makeup, this lipstick is amazing. It's texture is creamy, so application is effortless. What I also love about the colour is how it suits both a day and night look.

AX Paris - Fashion Fit For Any Occasion

I love shopping on my phone, I find it's so convient and much less time consuming. Plus, during sales you don't have to push any one out of the way to get that really cute top that was full price last week and now is centimetres away from being yours ( Iv totally never done this by the way...). Saying this I do manage to spend a large proportion of my time scrolling through fashion websites, gathering information on what I could possibly manage to buy next. Whilst scrolling through my Instagram timeline I stumbled across the AX Paris website and was shocked by how stunning their dresses and clothes were. 

I love the neck on this dress and the way that it falls. Although it is skater dress which is normally quite loose and casual, this seems to be very figure hugging and occasional which I like. The pink, red and purple tones of the flower print also have an Autumn vibe which makes this dress very season fitting.
