Random Acts of Swatching: MUFE Aqua Taupe, Graftobian Lips, and Stila All Over

Today’s edition of random acts of swatching really is quite random, as I have a smattering of products from a smattering of different brands. Let’s get to it then, shall we?

Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream in Taupe

Journey To The Center of My Stash- Stila's All Doll'd Up Palette

Say hello to this cheeky little number, the All Doll’d Up Palette from Stila. While this particular palette was released as a limited edition just about a year ago, it proudly makes its debut today.

Bulletproof Eyeliner- Stila Smudge Sticks

Summer is for sunshine, long days of surf and sand, and now, for eyeliner that is as stunning and nonstop as you are. From poolside to clubside, Stila’s Smudgepot inspired eyeliners are amazing in every sense of the word. Vivid, vibrant, creamy, sparkling, the list of virtues goes on, and on.

Stila One Step Makeup

The newest addition to my morning makeup militia is a product that is as easy to use as it is effective. Say hello to Stila's newest, One Step Makeup.

 

Stila Spring 2010 Jewel Eye Palette

Now its time for more adventures in Spring makeup, this time with Stila's Jewel Eye Palette.

 

Stila Spring Jewel Lip Glaze Trio

The ultimate in bling for your lips, Stila has launched a brand new trio of dazzling lipglosses as part of their spring collection.

Stila Makeup Player

This looks too cool for me not to share the details.

New from Stila is the Beauty Tube, a new gadget that is a hybrid of beauty and technology. Part docking station, part traincase, and part vanity, this gadget is literally everything you need to take your makeup party on the road.

I won't bore you with details, as you can find those in the pictures. Suffice it to say, a WANT is born.

If the case itself isn't enough to bring about some serious lemmings, you also get these great Stila products right there in the kit:

Who else will be indulging? Stila's Beauty Tube is available on the Stila website.

Stila Summer 2009- Of Smokey Golds and Bright Pink Lips

OK, so technically this isn't available on Stila's site yet, but what better way to whet your appetite than by feasting your eyes on the Stila Indian Summer Collection for 2009.

Made up of a quad, 3 glosses, bronzer, and a new limited edition smudge pot in 24 k (black with gold flecks), this collection brings to mind images of exotic India.

I was lucky enough to get a hold of 3 items from the collection at the Makeup Show.

Brilliant Pink Lipgloss comes housed in the famous Stila clicky tube. It is a cool, bright pink with noticeable gold flecks. This gloss is beautiful down to the little bindi jewel that adorns its packaging.


The 24 K loose mineral bronzer is a warm golden brown with subtle glitter. The packaging on this is fantastic, as you can twist the top to close the sifter and prevent spillage

Now the real star of this collection is the 24K smudge pot. I am a huge fan of the smoky eye, and this baby right here brings you instant bedroom eyes with sexy gold glitters. Think Mac's Black Ore Solar Bits but not as messy and with the ability to be sheered down or used as liner.

Swatches, cause I know you want 'em!

I definitely give it a big thumbs up!
