We all love to flaunt lush, long, beautiful lashes. Unfortunately, I’m not blessed with long lashes, so I seek solace in volumizing and lengthening mascaras. Mascara is a magic product that has the ability to make our eyes pop. Even when you want to skip your eyeliner, a swipe of your trusty mascara can open up your eyes with a dash of drama. Since it’s an integral part of our makeup routine, choosing the right one is really important. You don’t need to splurge on a luxe mascara, Kiko Milano has a variety of them that are way more pocket-friendly.

My Experience with Kiko Milano Luxurious Lashes Extra Volume Brush Mascara:
It comes in a big fat white tube with golden cap. The brush is indeed nice. It does give volume to the lashes and opens them up. The mascara has the screw lock system where the applicator brush is attached to the cap. The applicator is very thick and broad and should be used carefully on puny lashes. Overall, it’s a travel-friendly tube.
I’m an avid fan of Kiko Milano. There was this deal going on certain products from the brand, so I bought this mascara. The best way is to place it beneath your lashes and roll it as you move upwards instead of doing straight strokes. Continue building lashes until you reach your desired look. Do not let dry between coats. Repeat on the lower lash line.
The brush, being thick, has more chances of spreading the product around during application, so it has to be used carefully, especially on the inner corners and lower lashes. The formula is quite thick but doesn’t weigh down on my very puny lashes. It surely adds volume to the lashes in two coats, but not much length.
I have puny lashes, so this product doesn’t really help to give dramatic look to my eyes. It’s nowhere mentioned that it’s waterproof, but it doesn’t melt away. The company claims the lasting power of 16 hours, although the volume effect lasts 5-6 hours only. Lastly, it comes off easily with any eye makeup remover.
Pros of Kiko Milano Luxurious Lashes Extra Volume Brush Mascara:
• Good formula
• Adds dramatic volume
• Doesn’t flake off
• Smudge-proof
• Doesn’t wash off or smear even in summers
• Easy to remove
• Economical
Cons of Kiko Milano Luxurious Lashes Extra Volume Brush Mascara:
• It doesn’t add visible length
• Doesn’t last for 16 hours
IMBB Rating: 4/5
Would I Repurchase/Recommend Kiko Milano Luxurious Lashes Extra Volume Brush Mascara?
Well, I would not like to repurchase this one. It is recommended for women with long and thick lashes. Considering mascaras have a shelf life of only 3-4 months or so, I would say snoop around before you invest in this one.
