There’s nothing I love more than a good bargain, especially if the bargain is also a great cruelty-free beauty product! I’ve openly admitted before that I’m not the best with makeup. A self-confessed ‘shit girl’ when it comes to application, I pretty much have three alterations of one look down. This basically consists of eyeliner, no eyeliner and with or without eyeshadow. The bold lip is never optional! But with this in mind, the last thing I want to do is spend a fortune on products I am not 100% sure how to use. Enter Kiko Cosmetics.<\/h2>\n

The high-end performance make up with high street prices, Kiko Cosmetics are an Italian brand that I first found during a trip to LFW a few years back. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw their bustling London store absolutely rammed full of people grabbing items as if it was a designer collab. (It wasn’t, it’s just that good!) It’s for this reason that I almost leaped out of my seat when I found out Kiko were finally opening some doors in Glasgow, so it didn’t take long for me and Honey Pop<\/a> to haul ass to \u00a0The Fort Shopping Centre to stock up on some essentials.<\/p>\n

I’d already been championing the Kiko face powder<\/a>, highlighter, and lipsticks for a while so I was excited to have a full walk through\u00a0with one of their artists. If there was one item in my makeup bag that I couldn’t live without, it would be my lipstick. My face just needs it, so the fact they give brands like Mac and Lime Crime a run for their money, well that makes for a happy face. Especially when they all retail under \u00a310. I ended up going for 3 shades of orange and a red, you know for something different (?!)<\/p>\n

I could hardly get over the sheer amount of products they have. The actually have everything that\u00a0your make up mind could imagine, in at least 6 different colours. I love that their lipsticks have a really strong pigment but don’t make your lips look like a snake after a few hours. I’m pretty much-gonna stock up on all the Unlimited Stylo<\/a> colours, Velvetine eat your heart out! For those who like something a little more subtle (what’s that?) their glosses\u00a0and tints are a dream. I also dipped my toe in the world of lip liners. I know what you are thinking – WTF?! – but because I use such matte lipsticks, I usually don’t really need lipliners…till I turned 29. Now I need them, so I picked up the orange<\/a> and an invisible one for good measure.<\/p>\n

On my very first visit to the London store, I managed to find one of their highly sought after highlighter sticks. The hype was so worth it as it became a firm handbag favourite of mine, so much so the branding has disappeared along with its contents. Luckily, I managed to get my hands on their new one which comes in both a gold<\/a> and a pinky colour so of course we took one of each! You can even watch blether away about what we got in the new Colour Pop Girls<\/a> vlog below. Excuse my extra husk, I’d been hit by the (wo)man flu.<\/p>\n
