While Stila might not normally be my go-to makeup line of choice for all my daily beauty routine must-haves, the brand certainly takes the cake when it comes to adorably festive themed palettes — and at a serious bargain, mind you! The latest themed all-inclusive slim sets take inspiration from our favorite summer hotspot — the beach! With a total of four different
limited-edition palettes, each including shades modeled after the world’s most gorgeous beachy hangouts, you can collect them all or choose the one you’d most rather be spending your time! …Or of course, just be predictable and base your decision on the shades appeal to you most (kidding!). You can look out for the second half of the four-piece collection later this summer, but for now be sure to check out the first two:
Stunning in Sayulita and
Haute in The Hamptons! Both contain four coordinating shadows, one cheek color, and one highlighter/bronzer, but differ in color scheme. Sayulita appeals to our inner
surfer girl with its taupes and bronzes, while the Hamptons channels a more subtle, “sip wine and look pretty at the hottest cocktail party” look. Can’t decide? For only $14 each, why bother choosing just one?

I can’t decide what I love most about Stila’s new themed “Travel Girl” palettes. Maybe it’s the fact that Stila itself is known for its high-quality color-rich shadows and the book-style palette is slim and portable, perfect for toting around. Maybe it’s because the passport theme itself is so adorable and just screams “gotta collect them all” and I’m a sucker for clever marketing. Or maybe — and this is the most likely option — it’s because they’re only $10 each! No joke — these travel makeup palettes include 4 shadows and a multipurpose cream color (a $65 value!) for only $10. Who wouldn’t want to collect them all for such a ridiculously tempting bargain?
The concept of the collection is that each palette has its own color story inspired by one of five girls’ travels around the globe (whether it be the US, France, Russia, Fiji, or Japan), with one palette being released each month from now until December. The first one (and only one available just yet) of the 5-part collection — Road to Radiance Across the USA — features 5 fresh pink and purple shades that are perfect for creating a full coordinating look (thank goodness for convertible color)! While I’m not sure how the color theme says “trip across America,” the palette is nevertheless a totally sweet summer beauty steal!

It’s been a while since I’ve gotten really excited about a new makeup foundation. I love my current foundation but I came across a product that is just superb. Thank you Stila for creating my miracle makeup. Stila’s One Step Makeup is a 30ml bottle that acts as a primer, concealer, powder, and foundation in one. Here are 4 reasons why I love this makeup.
1. It does everything thus decreasing my makeup application time. No more rushing out the house to get to work on time! 
2. I found it to be fantastic on the skin because it is a lightweight, mousse-like formula with a smooth finish. My skin looks flawless.
3. It’s oil-free which is perfect for my oily skin.
4. Oh yeah…how can I forget to tell you that it is paraben-free and fragrance-free. This makeup just rocks!
I am so glad I bought this product. A great investment and I couldn’t be happier!
Stila’s One Step Makeup is available at StilaCosmetics.com for $44.
