Stila Cosmetics Face Haul

There’s always one brand you go back to, no matter how much you try to experiment with different products. For me, Stila has become that brand. As the frugal person I am, spending money on makeup is one of my least favourite activities (despite how much I enjoy owning it), but sometimes you really have to splash out on a product that you love. I really like Stila’s eye shadow palettes and liners, but their foundation and powders beat them all.

Stila Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer - £29.50 (Shade: 06 Cocoa)

This foundation and concealer is absolutely perfect for the colder weather and contouring. The foundation is faultlessly thick without being too light and is very pigmented so there’s no need to go overboard with the amount of product used. The foundation can be spread lightly because it is such a high quality, and I don’t use a lot each time. I love that the foundation comes with a mini concealer on the top, which is a lot thicker but still the same shade. It works really well against the foundation and can even be layered on top. The product really is Stay All Day as I can apply it in the early hours of the morning before work and never have to touch-up before going out in the evening – plus, it comes with its own brush.

Stila Stay All Day Bronzer for Face & Body - £28.00 (Shade: Dark)

If I’m using a Stay All Day foundation I need the Stay All Day bronzer right? Well, that’s my logic anyway. I have always been a fan of Stila’s powder and bronzer range because they really help foundation to set and stay in place and absorb oils and grease. I used to use the Stay All Day Bronzing Powder (which is currently on sale for £9.00) but recently started using the bronzer for face and body – and I just love it. The best thing about the bronzer is the setting power, and that it doesn’t come off easily. There’s nothing worse than finishing a base for makeup, and then finding brown fingerprints all over my white walls and doors. The powder doesn’t lift off easily, meaning less need for setting spray!

Stila Perfect & Correct Foundation - £28.50 £8.50 (Shade: Deep)

This foundation has become the perfect product for the recent warm weather. If I’m ever going for a ‘no makeup’ makeup look, this foundation is the one to use. It’s so lightweight, I often forget I’m wearing any makeup. The light, bubbly texture is ideal for the summer or being in the holiday heat. The foundation is a lot more hydrating that the Stay All Day foundation and keeps my skin fresh and able to breathe. The foundation blends really well with other concealers, and is an amazing base for powders. Like the rest of Stila’s line, the product doesn’t come off the second you touch it, so I don’t have to worry about waiting for it to set.
