This is the second palette of five in Stila's beach palette collection.This one, like the first, is very wearable. It has mostly neutral colors, and the one darker blue color.

So the palette starts off with Sand, a matte light beige color. The next color is Linen, a sparkly gold color. Then we have Route 27, a brown with pink and green micro glitter. The final eye color is Blue Skies, a dark blue with blue micro glitter.

Now on to the blushes. The first is Hydrangea, a really light, matte pink. Finally, Montauk Highway is a darker red color. From the first look it looks like it is a bronzer color but don't use it as a bronzer! It is too red to be a bronzer and will make you look sunburned! I use the lighter blush on my cheekbone and the darker one under it in a very small amount.

I've reviewed this before, but I thought I would do it again as it is part of my Stila travel palette series.

This is the first of five travel beach palettes that Stila released Summer of 2011. I fell in love with this one at Urban Outfitters and had to get the rest... and then some. This one is one of my favorites. You can get a really pretty natural look but it also has a nice flair with the green color, Palm Trees.

Starfish is a light shimmery champagne rose, Sandbar is a deep brown with lots of lighter brown glitter, Getaway is a light violet color with multi colored glitter, and Palm Trees is a pretty green with gold glitter. Playa is a peachy pink matte color, and Banderas Bay is a light pink glittery highlight color (it barely shows up but it is there, under Playa).

This is probably one of the most wearable palettes in the beach collection! Check it out if you can find it! It's worth every penny!

My 100th Post! Stila Lip Glaze Review and Giveaway

 Hello everyone! This is my 100th post! Hip hip hooray!

In honor of my 100th post, I'm doing my first official giveaway. But first I am going to talk about the products.

So above are my Stila lip glazes in Raisin, Grapefruit, and Seashell. I bought them in a kit at Urban Outfitters for $12 dollars. These are not full size, but they are pretty close. I didn't like them initially, but it was more because I didn't use enough product. I wouldn't twist it enough. Now that I know to twist it more, I have had a much easier time with it.

So these colors are very pigmented and they also smell great. Each one has its own individual scent which I think is really cool. The glosses are also not sticky which is another big bonus. Raisin is a pretty berry color, Seashell is a cool-toned nude color, and Grapefruit is a bright pink.

I will definitely be buying these again! No on to the giveaway portion!

The giveaway will be a Stila Lip Glaze in Raisin (the one pictured above). It has not been used. It is not full size, it is the same size as the ones I have.

So how do you enter? Well first of all you have to subscribe to either my blog, twitter, facebook, or youtube channel. Second of all, you need to leave a comment below telling me your favorite lipgloss and lipgloss color! Then, e-mail me telling me your username(s) in which you followed me. I will enter your name in for each time you follow me, so you can have your name entered up to four times! Only US and Canada residents may enter. The winner will be announced a week from today!
