I've been eyeing the Stila cosmetics for ages. I know many girls who love their stuff big time.
Esp the eyeshadows and blushes. ^^
I bought a few things to try, they r Stila eye shadow stick, kajal eye liner, nude palette and shadow pot eye mousse. They are all very nice, silky smooth texture, well-pigmented and long lasting. I love all of them. The quality of Stila is brilliant. I think it's even better than some of the big brands out there. I am going to purchase more. lol |

I agree, Stila shadows and liners are absolutely fab. I have a #6 liner (I think) that's perfect for neutral and just got a 4-pan for some neutral shades I have been loving for a quick makeup application.
They are on my radar all the time.  |

I am also a big fan of their eyeshadows and also their convertible color blushes! 
I wish it was more accessible here in Canada. I think the only place you can get it is at Holt Renfrew (Vancouver) or you can order from Sephora.com

The lipstick color, Olivia, is the most beautiful nude.

| I'd like to jump on the Stila bandwagon here, too, and say that I also love the eyeshadows. I'm a wimp when it comes to putting color on my eyes, but Stila makes several very neutral colors with just enough shimmer. The shadows also blend very easily. |

Yay..I am well-chuffed with the Stila makeup. The only bad thing is I can't get their stuff easily as no stila in my area.  |

| I just started w/Stila makeup and I love them - I love how their eyeshadows and blushes are so soft in texture (only problem is they're easily nicked/scratched while depotting from cardboard palettes). Also their blush collection is very nice and very sheer which is great - they have something for everyone! I now prefer their blushes to MAC's because their colours are more neutral and better for everyday (I've used all the possible light colours from MAC that would suit my skintype). For PPP/FFF they really ahve the best selection. I also find that their cream blush (convertibles) are less sticky and shimmery and more natural looking than MAC's cream blushes, not to mention you can use them as lip colors. However I have a gripe with Stila's pricing - very expensive for a small amount of product and they come in cardboard?! Now that they've taken away the cardoboad you're forced to buy pans or individual aluminum containers (which is great in a sense) but really an added expense (also makes you buy more to fill in the palettes). The colored plastic compacts for the convertibles look very cheap too (reminds me of barbie type plastic). Their brushes are also SUPER soft and I'm really lemming for the Pro Brush set but for 300+CAD for 5 face brushes I really don't need it, I'd rather pay 260CAD for MAC's Pro Brush Roll including all the brushes. |

Woman, I got the free shipping because I couldn't resist! Stila's makeup is so much fun and has such great neutrals, which I adore. You can just grab a set like this and go! Saw the clutch in my basket - Surprise! - and the copper smudge pot is what pushed me over the edge. I've been wanting to try these but didn't want to commit to the big size. |

| You will LOVE it, I have been using it everyday. The smudge pot is great. The eyeshadow colors are so great, I didn't have any Stila eyeshadows, so I love that these are so neutral. Let me know what you think when you receive!! |

Got it yesterday! What an adorable little box it comes in. I will probably try them out on Friday as I'm planning to do a big peel this afternoon. Of course, I had to try the lippie and it is a very cute neutral, I agree!
I love the free makeup bag, too. |

For those who can't get Stila where they live (like me!) strawberrynet has recently started carrying "some" Stila cosmetics & brushes
http://us.strawberrynet.com/makeup.aspx?BrandId=592&goChar=S
As always with strawberry, they don't have the full range, and limited colours, but the prices are pretty good, with some 50% off, eg the long handle blush brush at US14. Plus, with their loyalty scheme and depending where you live you can get even more discount, in my case another 25%
I've already stocked up on a ton of stuff
EDIT - i forgot to add at the moment they have a free Stila rouge pots cheek mousse for new customers |

| I too order from strawberrynet.com. The convertible lip/cheek cream has a very fine texture. Smooths on like a dream and stays fresh all day (on the cheek that is). So bad they only carry one color. Now they have the mini lip gloss set at a very reasonable price. Check it out ! |
