Brand-New Makeup Brand You Need To be Aware Of

KISS Professionals

When you’re beauty obsessed as much as I am, going down the drugstore makeup aisle can be sometimes fairly predictable. Been there, tried that, seen that brand, etc. Although there are a ton of options out there, sometimes this girl just wants to shake things up a little. Best known for their affordable line of false lashes and IMPRESS Press-On Nails, KISS Professionals now has their own line of makeup. That’s right, the world’s largest manufacturer of nails and nail care products has jumped on the cosmetic bandwagon. The brand has released an entire lineup of makeup with the same affordable pricing as their lashes and nail care products, most of them ringing under $20 at your local Rexall and London Drugs.

Any good makeup collection starts with a killer eyeshadow palette. KISS New York Pro Hexa Eyeshadow Palette comes in a wide range of colours and finishes to fit all your wants and needs. It comes in a sleek black packaging with a clear window to see the shades within. It features 6 shadows, the brow highlight shade being the largest. Each shade has a creamy and velvety smooth texture that applies flawlessly to the lid. It has excellent pigmentation and is buildable with little to no fallout. It offers an excellent mix of colours with both matte, satin and shimmer finishes. When paired with a primer, it stays put on the lid all day without creasing, smudging or fading. The deeper hues are, however, slightly more opaque and richer in colour than the lighter shades. You can easily build up the intensity for the evening by packing on more product. It retails for $12.99.

Sick of dry, hard eye liners, you’re going to love the new KISS New York Intensif-Eye Liners. These rich and creamy liners are formulated to you withstand heat, humidity, sweat, even water, to ensure nothing put bold, extremely pigmented and vivid colour. One might say it’s almost a hybrid between the boldness of a gel liner, with the control and ease of a pencil. It glides on smoothly for a flawless finish that sets and stays in place all day. You can easily achieve both thick and super fine lines thanks to its precise applicator and fine tip. Never worry about having to pull, tug, or press too hard to achieve opaque lines, in a single swipe you’ll receive true colour payoff that lasts all day. Since it’s pretty much waterproof, it’s an excellent liner for the waterline and tightline. It comes in 12 fun shades and retails for $12.99.

Matte lips are still incredibly trendy, but long goes the days when the formula would be incredibly drying. I think we can all agree we want something with a flat finish that’s still comfortable and lightweight. The new KISS New York Celeste Matte Liquid Lipstick features a rich and creamy texture that not only provides a soft and velvety matte finish, but its water-based cream formula helps to keep lips from feeling tight and dry.

It too has the same rich and creamy, liquid-y formula as the Mattes, but with a slightly shinier finish. It applies like a gloss, has the intense pigmentation of a lipstick with the staying power of a liquid lip. Its unique flat tip applicator makes application process a breeze, covering the entire lip in a single swipe. Achieve full coverage and true colour payoff without having to re-dip your brush back into the tub. It too stays put for hours, yet feels slightly more hydrating than the matte lippies.

It’s infused with vitamin E to help soften, smooth and hydrate the lips for all day comfort. It has a slightly thin, almost watery texture that glides onto the lips like a dream.

If you’re looking for individual eyeshadow shades, the brand also offers single eyeshadows (sadly mine broke in transit). KISS New York Single Eyeshadows are available in 60 shades, allowing you to customize your wants and needs. Although each shade is incredibly rich and creamy, high-pigmented and performs extremely well, at $6.99 a pop, I think you’d be better off investing in a palette. I just find single eyeshadows a hassle, and by the time you pick up 5 to 6 shades to create an entire look, you could have purchased a palette that would offer more looks.

Last, but not least the KISS New York EGOISM Matte Velvet Lipsticks. Although I havent had the time to test them out yet, they look pretty amazing. They seem to glide on effortless, are extremely pigmented and was pretty hard to get off my hands, which means its probably long-wearing…yahoo!
