MAKE UP | KIKO Eyetech Look Eyeshadow




L-R 106, 112, 117

117
Before I started blogging, I never understood the joy of eyeshadow. A quick flick of mascara and I was good to go. But over the past three years, I've experimented with them a lot. More often than not, I tend to stick to my trusty Urban Decay Naked palettes as I know what works for me when it comes to those. But every now and then, I discover a new gem that I just can't seem to stop wearing. This little beauty is from what I can only describe as my favourite make up brand: KIKO. I haven't come across a product of theirs that I don't like and I swear on oath that one day, I will own the entire collection from the brand.

The KIKO Eyetech Look Eyeshadows* are not only stunning but they're easy to use. And when it comes to everyday wear, there's nothing I love more than an easy beauty product. They come with their own applicator which means that you can easily sweep them over your lids and blend them out to your desired needs. As well as this, these look lovely as eyeliners - particularly colours 106 and 112 which look gorgeous underneath the lash line in summer as the colours are so incredibly vibrant. 106 is a beautiful deep purple and 112 is a stunning turquoise that reminds me of the ocean. I've been wearing the colour 117 every single day as it's natural looking and gives a beautiful wash of colour over the eyelids. It's like a "my lips but better shade" except it's for your eyes.

The one thing that worried me about these eyeshadows is the size. They are small and there is only 0.8g of product in them however, KIKO claim that there is enough product inside the cap for over 150 applications - a pretty bold claim. And although I haven't used my trusty 117 150 times yet, I have been wearing it almost everyday for over a month now so it's definitely put my worries to rest. The packaging is also wonderful and extremely practical. If you're travelling somewhere, these are small enough to chuck into your beauty bag and if you're using them to give a wash of colour or as an eyeliner, you don't even need to take a brush with you.

KIKO claim that these come in 18 different shades however on the website, I can only see five unfortunately. You can buy these practical little beauties here where they're currently on offer for £2.90 each.

Have you tried these eyeshadows before?
