Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review and swatch of the Kiko Lasting Precision Automatic Eyeliner And Khol in the shades 04 Spicy Burgundy and 09 Mint.
I have to be honest, I rarely buy Kiko these days, I think their products are way overpriced and I don’t normally like the quality. It’s just one of those brands I don’t get along with for no particular reason.
But, the other day I was mindlessly scrolling on Instagram and I stumbled upon an AD for these pencils, it was a full look using the red one and if you know me, you know I love red makeup so it kind of sucked me in and two days later I was at the store.
These pencils have an amazing colour selections and I pretty much wanted all the shades. I started with two because I wanted to test the quality first, but I’ll go back.
They come in 20 shades and you can get them on kikocosmetics.com for 10$ each.
04 Spicy Burgundy
09 Mint
COLOUR
- 04 Spicy Burgundy is a shimmery burgundy red.
- 09 Mint is a matte mint green.
PACKAGING
The packaging is very classic for an eyeliner, I like that the cap shows you the shade.
It’s an automatic pencil so it twists up and down. It comes with a sharpener in back to make it the point sharp which I definitely appreciate and a plastic sponge that I will never use because it’s too harsh on the eyes.
FORMULA & APPLICATION
The formula is very creamy, not to the point that it bleeds, but it’s easy to apply and it doesn’t drag the lid.
Thanks to the sharpener you always have the point so it’s easy to create a precise line.
They both look amazing on the upper lashline as well as the waterline.
I love to use the red one as an eyeshadow base to make smokey eyes more vibrant. You can blend it easily and it doesn’t create any patches.
SWATCH
04 Spicy Burgundy
09 Mint
LASTING POWER
On me, they last about 8 hours. They don’t transfer on the lid which is very impressive.
RATING:
- Colour: 10/10
- Longevity: 8/10
- Application: 9/10
- Pigmentation: 9/10
- Formula: 9/10
- Packaging: 8/10
GRADE: A–
I love these eyeliners, I love the colours, the packaging and the way they apply. I think the lasting power is amazing too both on the lid and it the waterline. Overall I’m very impressed. I’ll definitely get more colours, they all look gorgeous, to be honest.

The mint color is perfect to add a little pop in your everyday look. Love how it makes your eyes look.
Agree! Thank you ?
These sound top-notch, and I love both colors. I remember you telling me you weren’t such a fan of Kiko – and I’m the opposite! I wish I had more of their stuff, or lived closer to one of their stores. I think the only one near me is in Times Square, but I’m definitely not going there now!
Yeah not usually a fan so the fact I like these says a lot ahaha
These look so gorgeous!x
Thank you ?
Non uso le matite colorate, ma quelle di Kiko mi sono sempre piaciute x
Belle vere!
I like the sharpener being part of the packaging. It looks like it goes on very smoothly.
Yes totally!
Both of these are so gorgeous. The pigment is incredible. I need to buy more colored eye liner
They are perfect for summer!
I am glad to hear that these eye liners worked so well for you! I have actually been looking for something new to try, so may have to try this!
Enjoy!
I have been looking for some new eyeliners. Thanks for sharing this brand
Thank you ?
I’ve always liked Kiko! I like how colourful some of their products are! I have to say that now I can’t wait to go in Italy and buy this blue eyeliner!! ? è fantastico! ? (yes, I only buy Kiko products in Italy, it’s like a tradition ?)
Ahahahah dobbiamo andare insieme allora! ? are you planning a trip?
Siii le prime settimane di Agosto vengo in Italia! Non so se rimarrò a Roma molto tempo ma sicurament ci passerò! ?
Yay! Speriamo di riuscire a prenderci un caffè!!
Siii!
First, in so excited to see that you liked these liners. KIKO is one of the brands that always sucks me in with their packaging, so I’m glad that the performance of these was so good! The colors looked so pigmented – especially that mint color!!
It’s such a pretty summer color!
I’ve never tried products from Kiko before but I really want to try these eyeliners! The burgundy one is perfect for fall so I need to get that one. I’ll probably end up with way more than just one lol!
You tell me, I want them all, all the colours looked gorgeous!
