Kiko have released a new collection called "Midnight Siren" which draws inspiration from the night. The press release for the collection says the collection is "mysterious, irresistable and atmospheric" All of which I can completely agree with.
Just the packaging is enough to make you froth at the mouth. I was lucky to be sent these products to try out but I have every intention of buying some as gifts for Christmas. My friends will LOVE this.
The Highlighter and bronzer both look like bottles of perfume. They are shaped in sphere's in a midnight blue color. The little dome's have mirrors in the lid too.
I mean these are pretty awful in terms of carrying in your handbag or for traveling but for being a miss fancy pants, these are the bee's knees.
The Cream Radiance Highlighter is a gold tone and has very little pigment but packs a big punch for highlighting, I would actually choose to use this above my Mac and Nars ones. It feels like a gel but transforms into a powder on your skin, it feels totally weightless.
The Silk Pearl Illuminating Bronzer is a three in one kind of product where you do that swooshy thing with your blush brush to get a mixture of the products on your face. This for me, is a bit too shimmery because I love a matte bronzer howeeeeever, with that said, I think this would look incredible across the collarbone and as a body bronzer.
The Moon Shadow Water Infused Eyeshadow is an eyeshadow stick that twists up from the bottom to give a full coverage shimmery shadow. By full coverage, I just mean these are really pigmented and are packed full of shimmer. The part that interests me most is the fact that they are 'water infused'. Over 42% of this product is made with water and it has a gel like consistency making it really easy to blend.
Finally are the Dark Tide Eyeliners. These have a twisty up bottom thing which means they never need sharpened - HALLELUJAH! These are pretty waxy making them easy to apply and blend but they stay put for-EVER. I needed to use an oil based makeup remover to get it off my eyes. Most impressive was the fact that even after wearing for a good 5/6 hours, the color didn't fade in the slightest.
Have you tried out the new Kiko Milano Midnight Siren Collection?
