The Award-Winning 3D Hydra Lipgloss
KIKO Milano's 3D Hydra Lipgloss is an ultra-softening, non-sticky lip gloss that delivers a smooth, radiant finish with instant comfort and shine. The lightweight, silky formula glides seamlessly onto the lips, leaving them visibly smoother, hydrated and naturally plumped.

Designed for versatility and self-expression, the 3D Hydra Lipgloss is available in 30 shades and finishes, ranging from transparent and pearly to shiny and high-pigment, offering a wide range of options for every look. The non-sticky formula provides lasting shine and comfort, while an ergonomic wand applicator allows for precise definition and even coverage.
