I love nail polishes. the whole process of painting my nails brings me joy. And despite my large collection of nail polishes, it is a category oi gravitate towards when I go to shop in stores. I have been loving kiko nailpolishes so when I saw these teeny-tiny travel sized Kiko Milano Mini Nail Lacquers in sale section, I picked all the shades which were on display. I have these for about 2 years now and some of them are already finished. So i thought let’s do a swatch post today.

What I like about Kiko Milano Mini Nail Lacquer:
- love the cute tiny bottle, travel friendly and light-weight.
- Brush applicator is nice even for small nails. it does not give streaky application.
- Formula has nice consistency neither toot thick nor too tunny.
- It does not get goopy or thick after a few applications.
- Dries out quickly and easy to layer up.
- Pigmentation is spot on in 1 coat, i prefer to use 2 coast for full opacity.
- staying power is nice, stays up to 3 days before it starts to fade from tip. no chipping.
What I do not like about Kiko Milano Mini Nail Lacquer:
- When i was half-way through the nailpaint, it became difficult to pick the product on applicator because applicator is tiny. it could have been a little longer. (same complaint i had with OPI minis too.
- The availability is meh.
Swatches:
10 Metallic Mercury Purple: (My favorite)
11 Vintage Rose:
14 Satin Scarlet Red: (Beautiful Pearly Red)
20 Deep Magenta: (another fav, finished this one)
38 Pearly Chocolate: (It looks super shiny in sun, love this one too)
Final Verdict: 4.75/5
I find mini products are way to go if you have a large collection of polishes like i do. Simply because it is easier to use them up before they go bad. and less wastage of product and money. these polishes are of nice quality and are often on 50% off, so you can get these for 50 cents. I love to carry 2-3 shades with me when I’m travelling and it is easier t do when the packaging in mini. Overall I love these a lot except that the applicator could have been a little longer so it could reach the bottom of the bottle better.
