It’s spring – officially – so could the weather warm up, por favor? To cheer things up a bit we’ve been dreaming of sunloungers in the south of France and doing a bit of beauty steal-spotting at Stila. Here’s what we found for around £20 and under…
STILA’s NEW SPARKLE WATERPROOF EYE LINERS £14 each in 9 right now shades including this south of France swimming pool turquoise (above) in Electric
Stila says: “Colour-rich, vibrant, easy-to-use waterproof eye liners infused with twinkling multi-pearl micro-glitter that stays on all day and night. Perfect blend of pearls and intense pigment . Easy-to-use, long-handled pen-like component with soft sponge applicator.”
STILA’S SMUDGE POTS look delicious enough to dive into, don’t they? These gel eyeliners work as eyeshadow bases and they’re perfect for smokey eyes, plus they’re a good alternative to powder or liquid formulas. Available in 8 sultry summer shades, £13 each.
ALL IS BRIGHT LIP GLAZE SET, £75 value now a complete “stila” at just £12.95. Just ignore the snowflake design (and the Christmassy shade names) and save yourself over £60 on this set of 8 gorgeous glossy lip pens. Keep a couple in the glove compartment of your Citroen DS3 Cabrio for those afternoon drives along the Cote d’Azur coast.
Ooh another tres bonne idee at a tres bon prix. Stila’s SPARKLE LUXE EYESHADOW PALETTE was £30, now £21, and it not only has 6 cream-to-powder eye shadows and 3 micro-matte shades, but you get a Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner in Ladyfish (the shade is black with pink shimmer) too. Comes with a mirror and makeup look book.
Feeling un peu “pasty” after the British winter that almost never ended? But bronzer feels ‘too much too soon’? Then how about STILA’s ALL OVER SHIMMER LIQUID LUMINISER in “Kitten”? Four shades (Bronze, Kitten, Pink and Rose), £16 each. Wear alone or mix the Liquid Luminiser in with your moisturiser or foundation to rev up the “glow factor” while the soft focus pigments in the formula help diminish lines and sun spots.
These (sun?) baked little lovelies come in three “shades” – Gold, Bronze and Champagne – and the one in the pic is STILA’s BAKED EYESHADOW TRIO in CHAMPAGNE GLOW £18. Stila says: Designed to be applied either wet or dry, these eye shadow trios were baked on a terra cotta disk for a sheer, never chalky, application.The shades are fresh and bright and boast a high pearl content for gorgeous sheer shimmer. The trio features three different tonal shades for use, the lightest as base, medium for crease and darkest to line lashes.
Lust but not least, what’s not to love about STILA’s WRITTEN IN THE STARS EYE SHADOW PALETTE? Now £10.50, was £15. Twelve mix and match wet-and-dry neutrals, perfect for summer, for just over a tenner.
