Sparkling Spring Colors From Stila

by Jennifer Long-Levy

Spring is nearly here and if you’re like me, you’re sick of hibernating all Winter long. It seems like a bare leg and a shimmery lip gloss are light years away, but the warm weather will be here before we know it (I am so mad that groundhog saw his shadow!).
For Spring, Stila Cosmetics has some great colors with a lot of sparkle and shine with the Dust To Diamonds Collection.  A girl doesn’t have to be decked out in diamonds to feel fabulous. All it takes is a sweep of Stila to sparkle with these makeup must-haves.

I got to check out the Stila Jewel Luxe Lip Gloss Trio and the Stila Jewel Eye Shadow Palette. Both are infused with sparkling glitter, but you can apply in layers to be more dramatic for nighttime and have a little sparkle during the day. Both last really long (a plus!). You will need eye makeup remover to get all the sparkle off of your lids – but we’re all gently removing our makeup with eye makeup remover anyway – right? *wink*

This set features three glosses with an innovative formula that glides on seamlessly and leaves a celestial wave of sequin-like reflections on the lips. I absolutely loved it on, my lips looked so shiny and healthy (which made me forget it was Winter for a few minutes!).   A $66 dollar value for only $32!

The luxurious glosses contain Stila’s Exclusive Gem Complex, which contains diamond, emerald, jade, ruby, moonstone, rose quartz, sapphire, topaz, amethyst, amber, garnet, mother of pearl, and opal. Mango seed butter, goa seed butter, and shea butter also offer moisturizing benefits.

The trio comes with these shades:
Pink Diamond – pink with pink sparkles
Amethyst – deep plum with gold and red sparkles
Golden Topaz – warm amber with pink sparkles

With a perfect blend of pigment and pearl, these buildable shadows glide evenly onto the lids. Transparent talc delivers excellent color release and all day wear. $32.  Amethyst and Black Diamond can also be used to line eyes with Stila’s #4 precision eyeliner brush.
