If you are one of those addicted to the world of beauty brands – or has traveled to Europe – you probably already know or have heard about Kiko. Kiko is an Italian brand super famous in Europe that came to USA in 2014 and has already three stores in New York (Staten Island, Brooklyn and Queens). The focus of Kiko is makeup: mix of products is vast, quality is great and the prices is the best part: super affordable.

Kiko stores are amazing: design is beautiful and the disposal of products is an inviation to try everything. In addition, the sellers associates are super friendly and willing to help you in purchasing. It is easy to feel lost and crazy with so many cool products to buy.
