Stila Backstage Eye Shadow Palette -- swatches, pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I wasn't planning to post this until later this week, but I saw Stila is on Hautelook today and this palette is available for only $9! CLICK HERE To sign up for a Hautelook account (it's free) and check out the Stila sale!

During Stila's most recent online warehouse sale I picked up a bunch of great items, and one of them is the Stila Backstage Eye Shadow Palette -- and it was only $8.00! What a great deal for such a beautiful palette!

Check out my pics, swatches, stats and review...

Stila Backstage Eye Shadow Palette Review:
I was so excited to see this palette for just $8 during the Stila online warehouse sale. It looks pretty on the outside, and the shadows on the inside are super beautiful -- both in quality and in color.

If I had known how much I would love this palette I would have picked up an extra to giveaway on my blog, and of course they're sold out now. If you can find this on sale don't hesitate to pick this up! I highly recommend!

  2. I've been using Chiffon as a base color all over my lid, then using Coal from the mid to outer lid. I put on some black liner and mascara and I have a super easy but super pretty look.

    Flamingo is probably the only shade from this palette I won't use, unless I'm doing a special colorful eye makeup look. I usually don't go out of the house wearing too bold of colors but I love playing with them and creating fun looks. I really should start posting some of them on my blog!
