I have recently been acquainted with
Kiko Milano, an Italian cosmetics brand which Mum says is currently all the rage in London. She's a fan of the brand herself - their lipsticks, in particular - and she brought home a few for me to try.
I immediately fell in love with this - the
Intensely Lavish Lipstick, which was actually launched last year as part of the limited edition
Rebel Romantic Collection.

Meet Kiko Milano. :) |
I was smitten from the packaging alone. And who wouldn't be? The gold lettering on the purple box gives off a very luxurious vibe, while the sleek and glossy rose gold bullet is nothing short of elegant.
 |
Lovely, just lovely. |
Even the lipstick itself has tiny embossed prints on the side which makes it lovelier than it already is.
 |
Details on the lipstick. |
There are six shades in the
Intensely Lavish range, and this one is shade #3 - otherwise known as
Luscious Red. It's a solid red color that would suit just about any skintone.

Kiko Milano describes their
Intensely Lavish lipsticks as
'creamy, with intense and bright colour', which is exactly what it is. This lipstick has amazing color pay-off, intense even with just one swipe.

It has a very smooth and creamy formula that glides on effortlessly, and a buttery texture that makes it very comfortable to wear. This shade in particular has a beautiful satin finish, with a bit of shine that makes the lips look healthy and naturally plump.
 |
One swipe on the left, two on the right. |
It also has impressive staying power as the color stays pretty much intact for five hours at the most. The best part? This lipstick retails for just
£6.90, around
Php 468 or
$10 when converted.

And yes, I finally got a hair cut! :) |
I do hope Kiko Milano will find its way to the Philippine market soon. I bet it'll be selling like hotcakes, much like it did in Europe and the US.
