Now a lot of imported cosmetics have appeared on the shelves of specialized stores. How to deal with such a huge range? Are foreign products always of high quality? Let's focus today on the brand of a well-known Italian manufacturer - this is Kiko cosmetics. Consider its advantages and disadvantages based on consumer feedback.
A few words about the company
How did Kiko cosmetics come about? Feedback from women suggests that they have been waiting for this brand to enter the Russian market for a long time. The company itself was founded in a town near Milan called Bergamo. It happened relatively recently. But the products of Kiko Make Up Milano have already managed to win the hearts of a huge number of women in Italy, Spain, Colombia, and now in Russia. This brand is represented by face and hand skin care products, as well as a wide variety of decorative cosmetics. At the same time, it should be noted that the prices for Kiko products are relatively low, given that they are of high European quality.
Forhands
Here, Kiko cosmetics are represented by several products - regenerating and moisturizing hand creams, Winter Balm cream to protect the skin in winter and a collection of creams from three mini-bottles called Unconventional Blooms Hand Cream Trio.
It is worth noting that each such product costs about 730-850 rubles. And the price of the last set is 1,550 rubles. At first glance, it is certainly expensive. But let's see what buyers say about the quality of goods. There are a lot of positive reviews about these tools. People write that hand creams of this brand are perfectly absorbed, leaving no greasy marks, and have a very light pleasant aroma.
For face care
What else does this brand offer us? Facial skin is very demanding for care. Manufacturers of this cosmetics understand this. To create face care products, they used the latest technology and high-quality raw materials. Italian Kiko cosmetics are represented here by the following products: gentle foams, milk and gel for washing, hydrophilic oil for delicate make-up removal, cleansing wet wipes soaked in moisturizing lotion, face masks, moisturizers, lip balms and serum. The cost of these funds varies from 850 to 1,700 rubles. Does the quality of these goods correspond to their relatively high cost? Many buyers are sure that such cosmetics are worth buying. Cleansers such as foams and milks have a very light, subtle, pleasant aroma, delicate texture.
Hydrophilic oil deserves a separate discussion - a product that not all manufacturers have in their arsenal. This is a very light oily makeup remover. Women say that it is incredibly convenient to use it: you just spray it several times on a cotton sponge and wipe your face. It removes makeup from the eyes completely and without difficulty, while not irritating the skin.
Face creams are also very good according to consumers. The skin after their use looks fresh, its color evens out. At the same time, they are absorbed quickly, leaving no oily sheen. These funds have one drawback: they are intended only for young women. Even creams claimed to be 3D Lifting products do not tighten the skin at all and do not reduce wrinkles. Most buyers think so.
But especially among all the products of the Italian brand, our women liked Kiko decorative cosmetics.
Foundation
Tonal means are represented by the following products: powder, makeup base cream, makeup fixative cream, foundation, bronzer powder, concealer, blush. Russian women have already tried many products from this category of goods. They write that the powder is very good, lays down in a thin layer, is transparent, does not cause allergies. Blush is sold in a small jar - only 5 g. However, they are surprisingly economical. Easy to apply, no dust, last all day.
According to some users, not entirely successful withThis brand only foundation. It is equipped with a dispenser, which is often clogged with dried product residues. However, its masking effect is also far from ideal. The cream hides all redness and acne, but emphasizes every bump on the face. Therefore, users do not recommend using it in the presence of enlarged pores, peeling, bumps on the skin and other defects.
For eye and lip makeup
Kiko cosmetics in Russia appeared mainly in specialized stores. Our women actively buy lipsticks, shadows and mascaras of this brand. Moreover, they note that Kiko lipsticks are simply fantastic: they lie flat, do not spread, do not roll, and last all day. And what a variety of colors! True, they are not cheap: from 730 to 1,130 rubles.
Shadows from this company from the most daring shades to classic ones. According to women, they are of good quality: they feel a little rough to the touch, but they lie on the skin very evenly, they hold perfectly and do not roll.
But eyeliners and eyeliners did not cause delight among our consumers. Those who have tried these products write that the quality is not bad, but they are nothing special.
Mascaras, volumizing and lengthening, also quite good quality. They make the eyes expressive. At the same time, the product does not crumble, it keeps well throughout the day.
For nails
If anywhere you can find a wide variety of the most amazing shades of nail polish, thenThis is Kiko Milano cosmetics. Lacquers dry very quickly. But here their advantages, according to many consumers, end. Cons include:
• thick, uncomfortable brush that does not allow even application of the product;
• thick consistency (putting a thin even layer does not work);
• poor durability (lacquer coating is erased already on the third day);
• a compound that is bad for the he alth of nails (they quickly become brittle and begin to peel).
The cost of nail polishes of this company ranges from 430 to 990 rubles. Given that our consumers did not particularly like this product, we can say that the price is too high.
We talked about such Italian-made products as Kiko cosmetics. In our country, it is already quite popular.
