I haven't tried anything from this line but popped into the Fred Siegle Studio in Santa Monica a few weeks ago and got a Stila makeover. I was so impressed with how my eyes looked I simply couldn't walk away without the eyeshadow and Wet mascara!
Here's a link to the duos. http://www.stilacosmetics.com/product_detail.asp?pmid=522&sku=S0G704
I got the Seafoam green duo and it really makes my brown eyes pop. At $20 it's certainly more expensive than drugstore eyeshadows, but it's very pigmented and a tiny amount goes a long way. They are also very buildable; with only 2 colors, you can really get a lot of depth out of this. Long lasting as long as I use UDPP underneath, eyeshadows don't crease on me.
I also liked the technique the Stila MA used to apply this and learned something new! Instead of the side to side motion with a brush, she loaded it up with the lighter shade and patted it all over my eyelid and into the crease. This kind of gave me a sheer barely there coat of light green all over. Then she wet the tip of a liner brush, dipped it into the darker shade and used it as an eyeliner. Back into the light shade and into the crease and outer V for additional dimension without going over the top. Finished it off with a coat of Blue Wet mascara [which, sadly, I don't see on their website so it must be discontinued]. The wet mascara just gives your lashes a slightly wet look but needs to be used on top of another mascara since it doesn't offer any thickening.
I'm more intrigued by this line and will very likely try more. Some of their Spring 2008 line looks very exciting! |
