THE GUIDE TO GLITTER EYES WITH STILA

Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadows

Just over a month ago I attended a lovely Brum Bloggers event in collaboration with Stila UK and was reintroduced to their amazing formulas once more. Since then my little collection grew a bit & today, I’d like to talk to you about my obsession with glitter this season! I don’t always follow trends but carefully pick ones that suit me & daily sparkle has been just that. I’d like to introduce you to their cult Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadows because we all need a little of that sparkle, coincidentally the biggest trend of Spring/Summer ‘18!

Easy 1-step glitter formula is what attracted me to Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadows. If you ever tried loose glitter, you know it’s not the easiest to use and almost always half the product lands on your face! With traditional glitter starting with the eye look is a must but that’s not the case with Stila’s offering! A combination of foiled liquid shadow & glitter particles is super easy to use as you just top up directly from a doe applicator. Not only that but the shape of said applicator allows you to either go all out & quickly cover your lids, or apply it more precisely as a liner. The formula dries down and even my silly oily lids can’t complain. I once wore it for 8 hours without the base! Truth be told, I rarely do that as my makeup must be 12+ hours proofed so I usually opt for an eyeshadow primer or even better a glitter glue (Too Faced does it best but you can also get an affordable NYX option which works almost as well).

Doing a bit of research prior to writing this post, I saw mixed reviews in terms of shade range. I really can’t complain about it. The three shades I own are beautiful and unique in their own right. I have been introduced to Kitten Karma thanks to my gorgeous blogging fam girls who kindly sent it to me as part of my Birthday present and it was a love from a first sight. I blogged about it a lot and used it a lot too. The best thing, you only ever need a little product, so one is bound to last a long time! When I went to the Stila event and swatched all the shades, I knew I had to get me some more! Hours of research later and Bronzed Bell & brand new shade Wanderlust ended up in my basket. I can't say no to myself, I've zero self-control! 

Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow in Kitten Karma

Kitten Karma is a stunning champagne pink with silver glitter which is stunning & light enough to truly transform your smokey into a spotlight look for example. It’s pigmented and I never experience much fall out throughout the day. There is a little, but so minimal, I barely even notice. 

Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow in Bronzed Bell

Bronzed Bell is medium bronze with silver glitter particles and I really love it all over the lid. The foiled base is so pigmented it doesn’t need a shadow underneath. It’s stunning everyday or layered on top of dark brown/aubergine smokey! 

Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow in Wonderlust

Wanderlust is where the magic happens. I adore the duo-chrome effect that looks a little golden, a tiny bit green or pink depending what base it is on and how the light hits it. An absolute stunner of the shade & I’ve been obsessed with it recently. 

Below, you can enjoy a little collage of the photos from the stunning event led by Stila Pro Makeup Artist Sascha Jackson, who shared her passion for the brand, makeup skill and experiences with the products. Make sure you give her a follow. Her passion for the brand truly shone through when she spoke which made the evening even more special. I’d like to relay my thanks to Dowal Walker PR for organising this beautiful night! Have a feast of some of the photos, excuse the quality - my camera was broken at that point :(
