If you’ve been in the Bukit Bintang area in recent days, you’ve likely seen a striking yellow store crowned with a giant LED screen. Meet KKV, a popular lifestyle store from China that just opened a spanking new store in Malaysia right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.

Below, we rounded up some of the best items worth getting here, so you know what to beeline for on your visit.


Lifestyle products from China in Malaysia


Straight from China, KKV’s first store in Malaysia is just like their overseas counterparts. Walk past their bright yellow storefront and be greeted by aisles stocked with lifestyle products in 8 categories – from food and drinks to clothing and accessories. 

KKV home goods

There are 4 floors to discover at the marine-themed outlet in KL that resembles a department store. The sheer amount of items here might make you feel slightly overwhelmed, but the products are actually sorted into dedicated zones and arranged neatly. If you’re someone who regularly splashes moolah on quirky products, be prepared to spend at least an hour here. 

Read on to find out what you can discover on each floor, and the highlights.


What you’ll find while shopping at KKV

As a plus, the disposable fabric products come in compressed packaging, so they barely take up any space in your travel bags.

Beauty & snacks


KKV beauty sponges

One of the first things you’ll spot on the 4th floor of KKV is a vibrant rainbow-coloured display of beauty sponges (RM6.90/pc). They may look like candy from afar, but there’s another section for snacks on the same floor. More on this later.

The beauty zone is divided into four main sections to creatively display bath bombs and soaps, makeup, skincare, and beauty tools. There are more than 100 products, with new-to-Malaysia brands as well as unique takes on familiar brands that we know – like these tea-based Darlie tube toothpaste (RM12.90) in flavours like passion fruit, lychee, and cheese snow top. 

Other neat items we found are face, hand, arm and leg masks to keep your well-used body parts well cared for, and purse-friendly bottles of dry shampoo (RM12.90) in scents like earl grey tea and urban forest.

KKV ramen wall

Not to be missed out on are the snacks. The last thing you’ll expect to find here are photo ops, but there’s one area here that has become popular among shutterbugs – a ramen wall with displays of instant noodles from all over Asia, including China and Thailand. 

You can snag some of what you’ll see at shelves just next to the wall, with flavours priced between RM4.90-6.90 per instant noodle cup. 

KKV in KL halal snacks

For instant gratification, head to their snack shelves, where gummies, candies, and yoghurt drinks are stocked. As for our Muslim friends, there’s a shelf dedicated to a selection of Halal food that everyone can purchase.
