Written by

As the festive season approaches, KIKO MILANO celebrates the beauty of golden, glowing light with the new Holiday Wonderlights Collection. The collection embraces the effect of golden light in all its forms. Textures and finishes channel the soft glow of lights filling the skyline, as well as the mesmeric impact of thousands of twinkling lanterns marking the festive period. The collection packaging recalls the same theme, with premium quality compacts and outer cartons emblazoned with reflective golden details.

Kiko wonderlights collection

The collection boasts three-star products that shine as brightly as the night sky: Gleam of Glam Triphasic Highlighter £20.99, which brings a lustrous finish to your skin, Lash Catcher Mascara £16.99, which provides an intense long lasting effect up to 12 hours and Starry Night Sparkling Lipstick £13.99, which creates a fairytale sparkling finish to your lips.

Skin: natural luminosity
Achieve natural luminosity with Kiko Milano’s skincare essentials! Start with the almond-scented Radiant Face Mask (£19.99) to brighten and hydrate—apply, leave for 15 minutes, then rinse. Follow with the Overnight Eye Mask (£14.99) to nourish and refresh tired eyes, perfect for overnight or daily use. Finish with Starlight Kiss Lip Balm (£6.99) for soft, hydrated lips and a radiant finish.

Base: glowing perfection
Achieve glowing perfection! Start with Glow Elixir Face Primer (£19.99) for a soft, radiant base and long-lasting hydration. Follow with Silky Glow Foundation and Concealer (£25.99) for a 12-hour, luminous finish, applying with the double-ended brush for a flawless look. Add definition with the Bronze Signature Contour Stick (£15.99), enriched with macadamia oil for a natural, blendable contour.

For a pop of color, dust Radiant Flush Blush (£20.99) on your cheeks, blending its silky, argan oil-enriched formula. Amp up the shine with Gleam of Glam Triphasic Highlighter (£20.99) and Merryglow Highlighter (£20.99) for a sparkling finish. Set your look with a soft, veil-like powder for a beautiful, glowing complexion.

Eyes: bright and beautiful
Make your eyes bright and beautiful this holiday season! Start with Metallic Magnitude Eyeshadow (£13.99) for intense, blendable color in four festive metallics. Layer with Magnetic Trio Eyeshadow Palette (£22.99) or Festive Flash Eyeshadow Palette (£24.99) to add high shine and dimension, perfect for a sparkling look.

Define your lash line with Lasting Duo Eyepencil (£11.99) for versatile matte and metallic finishes that last up to 12 hours. Add a festive twist with Twinkling Liquid Eyeliner (£13.99) in a multichrome metallic for eye-catching impact.

Finish with Lash Catcher Mascara (£16.99) for bold, defined lashes. Enriched with sesame oil and plant-based keratin, it offers full, dramatic lashes that last through any holiday party!

Lips: shine and sparkle
Add festive shine and sparkle to your lips! For a glossy holiday look, try Festive Duo Matte Lipstick & Gloss (£16.99) with liquorice extract and almond oil, layering matte color with high-shine gloss.

For party-ready sparkle, choose Sparkly Matte Liquid Lipstick (£16.99) with a lavender scent—apply, let it set, then rub lips together to release the shimmer.

For a fairytale finish, Starry Night Sparkling Lipstick (£13.99) offers narcissus-scented, metallic shimmer and intense pearlescence.

Complete your look with Metallic & Multichrome Nail Lacquer (£6.99) for a gel-like shine and a spritz of scented mist for an unforgettable touch.

Finally, reach for Wood or Amber Elixir Scented Mist £32.99, two super premium scents bringing a warm, embracing effect drawn from intense wood and amber olfactory notes. Each scent is captured in a scented body mist containing floating pearls that embrace the spirit of the collection.

Now it’s time to step into the light for the evening. Enjoy its magical glow as it lights up your night!

Puppy Yoga

The fun doesn’t stop there, from Friday through to Monday, you can experience the ultimate puppy experience! You will be joined by a litter of puppies who are all getting ready to venture off to their new homes. Each puppy yoga class will start off with puppy cuddles and individual photo opportunities! You will then carry on with some gentle yoga movements and breaks. The class will finish off with everyone on their backs lying down on their yoga mat with a puppy placed on their tummy for extra relaxation.

Puppy yoga is beneficial for the puppies as it allows them to socialise with new people in different environments, creating less separation anxiety when they officially go off to the new homes. From a wellness perspective, it is great for attendees too as it allows you to take a moment out of the day to unwind and relax from the everyday stresses of work and life.

Tickets are released every Thursday for the following weekend. Please check Puppy Yoga London’s website each week as they may release tickets at different times each week. Puppy Yoga London don’t release tickets further than one week in advance which has allowed all attendees to have a much better chance of getting tickets. To book a ticket for Puppy Yoga London’s upcoming sessions at Angel Central, click here.

The latest issue of Angel Central Magazine is out now!

 

It’s that time of year again, and what a year it has been! We’ve gone from lockdown closures to grand reopenings, and seen Angel Central transformed with the completion of our refurbishment works back in March. July’s Summer Fête saw us throw the big party we had all been waiting for, thanking everyone for their efforts over two difficult years, and welcoming the local Islington community into a new space we can all call home.

Now we’re looking ahead to Christmas and the New Year beyond, with plenty to look forward to and shout about. Our Sustainable Market features a selection of London-based ethical and sustainable businesses, the best in local crafters and makers, all with their unique sustainable spin, and all available in one place at Angel Central.

Continuing our proudly-held sustainability mission, the centrepiece of this year’s Christmas decorations is our enchanted Community Forest throughout the plaza. In January each tree will be adopted and re-homed by a local Islington community group, proving each has a life beyond Christmas.

We’ve also partnered with Gaydio, the UK’s first LGBTQ+ FM radio service, and will feature as they bring the big tunes and bigger vibes throughout the festive season.

All that is the backdrop to our amazing choice of stores, and ever-growing food and dining lineup – adding up to an unmissable Christmas shopping experience. The only thing left to do is write that letter to Santa!
