STILA LIP GLAZE REVIEW + SWATCHES




What Stila Cosmetics has to say about their Stila Lip Glaze?

Want lips that get all the attention they deserve? Turn on the shine and you'll be turning heads with stila's most popular lip gloss. Choose from an array of delectable shades that add a splash of color and fabulously matching flavors and scents in one easy click of the famous pen. Cosmetics experts agree, this top seller is an essential addition to any beauty bag.

Do I like it?

I don't like it, I love it ! ^_^ This is now my HG (Holy Grail) in Lip glaze or Lip gloss. Scroll down for my product review on Stila Lip glaze and some swatches too ^_^




Likes:

►The colors are gorgeous. I think every color is unique.
►I love the shimmer glitter effect, it accentuates my full lips.
►It has just the right kind of stickiness that I love.
►It's still pigmented but the color is not that strong but then it is a lip gloss anyway so it’s sheerer. I prefer natural looking makeup so this is perfect for me, I match this lipglaze with some foundie and just a touch of blush, I’m good to go.
►Every variant has a nice unique smell. The scent is yummy like it’s good enough to eat. And because it’s on your lips, then you know what I mean lol ^_^
►Chic packaging, it comes in clear click pen. It looks like a syringe ^_^
►When it comes to sheen and gloss, I think Stila Lip glaze is on top of the game. The sheen stays for a long time, doesn’t wear off easily even after eating. Another plus points, it means less touch ups.



Dislikes:

►The price is kinda expensive. In Stila website, it costs 22 USD.
►I find it difficult to control the click of the lip glaze pen, so sometimes I end up having excess. It looks like this:



My Verdict:



Rating is 6 out of 5 , if it’s possible hehe. It’s a perfect 5 !!!. I absolutely love this lip glaze. This is my HG Lipgloss. I’m in love with this product. I think, it really gives me pretty stunning full lips. With this lip glaze, there will be less lip enhancement surgery in the planet ^_^.

These are just my opinions. As always, what works for me, may not work for you. Goodluck ^_^.


SWATCHES of the STILA LIP GLAZE on my lips ^_^ :


Stila Lip Glaze in Star Fruit on my lips nothing more This is my favorite Stila Lip Glaze, Star fruit. It has a nice red sheen that looks really pretty. It is described as shimmering coral in the Stila website.



Stila Lip glaze Apricot on my bare lips This is really sheer. Just the color of your lips plus the sheen shimmery goodness. In Stila website, this is described as a melon nectarine color.



Stila Lip Glaze in Ulta Mate Pink

This is a limited edition lip glaze. It has a gorgeous pink shimmer. It looks pale in the picture above but it's not really pale in person. It has just the right amount of frost that I like, a really gorgeous color. ^_^



Nyx Round Lipstick in Perfect topped with Stila Lip Glaze in Ulta Mate Pink


I'm missin' one Stila Lip Glaze, the Stila Lip Glaze in Brown Sugar. It is described in Stila Website as a shimmering golden nude. For the love of me, I cannot find it anywhere tsk tsk. I am really forgetful sometimes ^_^

My First BENEFIT Product + Minor HAUL


My second order from Strawberry.Net is here. It's my second haul and the free shipping got me lemming for more ^_^ I'm eyeing YSL lippies and Clinique skincare products ^_^.


These are minor collective hauls but it still managed to brighten up my day especially since it's my first Benefit product, here goes :



Benefit Powder Pop Palette

It is Benefit Cosmetics trio limited edition palette of their best selling powder blushes : Dallas, Hoola, and Dandelion. And my first ever Benefit product all the way from Hongkong. It's around 65% sale I think, got this for a whooping 15 USD only. ^_^


This is simply love, the packaging looks sooo cute, and the colors are really pretty especially Dandelion. I'm so excited to try this blush palette. The Powder Pop Palette got me lemming for more Benefit Cosmetics, the Benefit Coralista and Benefit Throb. Have anyone tried it? Are the raves true about the Benefit Coralista? Hit me. ^_^



My orders from Digital Traincase :


Nyx Round Lipstick in Rose and Nyx Megashine Lipgloss in Natural

I got the Nyx Round Lipstick for PhP 165.00 and the Nyx Megashine Lipgloss for PhP 260.00 I paid PhP 480.00 for both items including shipping. Tis around 10.20 USD.



The Nyx Round lippie in Rose is a nice red color with a hint of pink. Actually I'm not sure if it's more on the red variant or pink variant. I think it's both ^_^



And these are very cheap pouches that I got at a stall in Harrison Plaza here in Manila, 3 for the price of 200 bucks only (that's around 4.2 USD)




That's it, have a nice day ^_^
