There is one brand that right makes me want EVERYTHING and that is KIKO, they have of late had some amazing launches which have left me wanting every single item within the collection. Midnight Siren is one of those collections! The description is as follows "Drawing inspiration from the night, the MIDNIGHT SIREN collection is mysterious, irresistible and atmospheric. Products are beautifully enriched with pearls and iridescent highlighters, reflecting the sheen of the ocean, the reflection of the moon and that mystical, magical starlight."
Now this is just so gorgeous, from the globe style packaging which I instantly fell in love with to the actual illuminating bronzer, this is one of those products I adore. The product contains three shades and what I love is that they can be used alone, as a duo or mixed together. The bronzer, which isn't as dark as I was expecting it to be applies so easily and blends like a dream.
The illuminating power, again can be used to compliment the bronzer or be used on its own as a highlighter and again, it gives a lovely shimmer when used and both applies and blends like a dream. There are 2 shades – I have the lightest one, Radiating Honey and the other available shade is irresistible Sienna.
This is a duo highligher for face and eye contour. The formula itself is quite cool in that it turns from a gel like formula to a cream and once on the skin is so light that you don't even notice it is there.
I absolutely adore the packaging, it matched the bronzer and is just so stunning. It is available in two shades Alluring Sand and Twilight Gold.
I have two fantastic shades - Mysterious Chocolate and Glistening Turquoise and both are incredible easy to use. The crayon stylo is angled making it really easy to apply and both shades are incredibly pigmented.
The formula is gel like and is made up of 42% water meaning it is quite hydrating on the eyes. The colour is lasts pretty much all day long, longer if used with a primer.
Shape and Shimmer Eyebrow Highlighter Pencil (£8.90)
This is amazing. It is a double-ended, long-lasting pencil that defines the eyebrows and highlights the eyebrow arch. The brow pencil end with its ultra-fine tip and natural matte finish precisely defines your eyebrows. The texture is so smooth that it glides on easily and the colour is revealed instantly for full and natural brows. The wax-based formula adheres well and the sculpted eyebrows retain their shape all day long.
The retractable pencil does not need sharpening. It is available in three shades and I have Light Chestnut and Blonde which is just about perfect for my colouring.

Dark Tide Eyeliner (£7.90)
I am not generally a fan of eyeliner, and it is the one product I never opt for when renewing my stash. So when the Dark Tide Eyeliner landed in my lap, I was immediately taken with for its texture. The waxy texture instantly melts when it comes into contact with the skin, thus making it easy to use, something I never thought I would say!
The colour is vivid and bright and once applied remains bold all day and ive found that it never smudges or fades but is an absolute breeze to remove with any eye makeup remover. What I also love about this eyeliner is that there is an in built sharpener in the bottom of the pencil. Available in 6 shades.

This lipstick I adore. It is a velvety matte liquid lipstick which when applied is quite creamy in texture. It doesn't cling to dry skin on the lips and lasts for a good 4-5 hours before the need to re-apply, I have been seriously impressed with how long this lipstick lasts.
It is available in six shades and the one I have, Embellished Peony, is just divine and I absolutely love it.
The final item within this amazing collection is The MOONLIGHT OIL SERUM (£18.90). "Described as being a luxurious skincare elixir with the performance of a powerful anti-ageing serum combined with the opulence of an oil". This specially balanced formula not only have a brightening and invigorating effect it to, but it also has a detoxifying action that transforms the skin, reducing dryness and restoring elasticity.
It is enriched with Camelina Sativa Oil, which is one of the richest sources of Omega-3 and Vitamin E to help improve the skins tone and texture.

This is one amazing collection from Kiko and I absolutely love it, I have used every single item and instead of having a favourite item which is usually no problem to choose, this time I am unable to decide what I prefer more, they are all just amazing.
