Kiko Milano and Stabilo Launch Collaborative Lip Marker Collection
The new beauty line reimagines the iconic Stabilo Boss Mini highlighter as a series of five vibrant lip products.
Cosmetics brand Kiko Milano has partnered with stationery manufacturer Stabilo to introduce a new collection of lip markers. The collaboration merges the world of beauty with the recognizable design of the Stabilo Boss Mini highlighter, aiming to offer consumers a playful and practical approach to everyday makeup.
The collection features five distinct shades, each given a name inspired by writing and communication. The lineup includes Fine Print, a brown shade; Afterthought, a mauve tone; Don’t Quote Me, an orange hue; On My Radar, a classic red; and Pink(er), a vibrant fuchsia. These products are designed to serve as tools for self-expression, reflecting the shared philosophy of both companies that color is a vital way for individuals to showcase their personalities.
For Stabilo, this partnership represents a strategic move to transition from a traditional writing instrument brand into a lifestyle-oriented identity. By incorporating its distinctive visual aesthetic into makeup rituals, the company seeks to expand its presence beyond the desk and into the beauty market. The collaboration aligns with the brand’s platform of highlighting what matters, bringing its core values of creativity and confidence to a new category.
Kiko Milano views the project as an opportunity to deepen its connection with a community of creatives and trendsetters. According to Simone Dominici, CEO of Kiko Milano, the collaboration allows the brand to push the boundaries of color and inspire customers to highlight their individual personalities. The partnership is described as a way to bring a shared passion for color to life through unexpected product design.
Michele Molon, Group CEO of Schwan-Stabilo and CEO of Stabilo International, noted that the collaboration demonstrates how two iconic brands from different industries can challenge conventions. He stated that the initiative is an example of the bold, imaginative thinking intended to shape the future direction of the Stabilo brand as it explores new dimensions of creativity.
The new lip marker collection is currently available for purchase in Kiko Milano stores and through the company's official website. Availability spans several European markets, including the United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, and Germany, as well as through the brand's e-commerce platforms serving the Middle East.
