NEW IN: Stila Spring '13 Collection

Posted on March 01, 2013 by Poppy Stila

Say Hello to the Stila Spring 2013 collection!

Even though the weather can't seem to make its mind up at the moment, you can be totally sure of one thing – Stila is about to lift everyone's mood with our glorious Spring '13 collection!

Let's start with the most fabulous fusion of Stila innovation with a classic design concept; Colour Balm Lipstick. This creamy lip colour provides dense lipstick pigment with the nourishing properties of a balm. Infused with a phyto-derived emollient to keep lips hydrated, the formula also contains naturally-cooling peppermint oil to soothe and stimulate irritated lips.

As if that's not enough, a certified organic sunflower-based polyglyceride adds volume and definition to your pout. Stila logos etched in each cap match the pigment shades, and a handy mirror on top allows for on-the-go application.

Colour Balm Lipstick is available in 18 luscious shades, from dusty rose and deep red to coral and pink violet.

Of course a Spring look wouldn't be complete without alluring eye shadows. And in the Spring '13 Collection, Stila has once again broken new ground with the all new Stay All Day Wet-To-Set 3D Eye Shadow Trios. This revolutionary Wet-To-Set formula delivers excellent pay-off that is ultra-luxurious and stays all day. Application is easy; moisten a Stila brush #30 with water and swirl into the shadow to create a creamy consistency, then sweep onto your lids. Repeat and layer until desired effect is achieved. There are 6 different shade combinations and you can find them all here.

Stila has always been famous for catwalk collaborations, and this year is no different. Straight off the runway and into your make-up bag come the limited edition Smudge Stick Waterproof Eyeliner and the Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner both in the fashion-forward shade of periwinkle. So you can be on-trend and looking fabulous with a perfect pop of periwinkle!

Finally Stila's seasonal Lip Glaze trios are here to add shine to your Spring look. There are two trios to prove that beauty's in full bloom; Flower Power includes the shades Peach Blossom, Pink Orchid and Lilac. Awesome Blossom includes Dahlia, Cherry Blossom and Rose Bud. These lip glaze sets represent a £28 value for just £12 each!

STOP PRESS – STILA LAUNCHES SKINCARE!

Posted on February 09, 2013 by Poppy Stila

OK so we all love clean skin. But did you also know that your make-up loves clean skin? The right skincare products will help your make-up truly ‘stay all day’.

So from the make-up name you trust – Stila – comes the perfect skincare to prep your skin for Stila make-up. Simple!

There are 8 great products in the range starting at just £10; this includes the special value ‘Try-Me’ sets which are perfect for life on-the-go! We especially love the unique Ready For Take-Off™ make-up wipes; these portable, 100% bio-degradable wipes make it easy to cleanse and moisturise skin effortlessly. While they’re strong enough to remove Stila’s notoriously long-wearing Stay All Day™ formulas, the cleansing cloths also soothe and calm skin with an infusion of lavender and chamomile.

All the products are packed with superstar ingredients – from stem cell technology distilled from the exotic Alpine Rose, to Hyaluronic Acid that deeply hydrates and strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier.

To maintain the purity of these skin-loving products, Stila created this line without any synthetic fragrance, mineral oil, sulphates, parabens or phthalates. So these gentle yet efficacious formulas are ideal for sensitive skin.

Stila skincare is available now at stila.co.uk. Begin With Beautiful Skin!

If you need any help with anything Stila – from high street stockists or advice on shades, ingredients or anything else - you can email poppy@stila.co.uk or ring the Stila helpline on 08450035330.
