Second Stila Travel Palette

Quick Take: good value, travel size, rich colors, simple
I bought the Seoul palette back in December and just loved how fool proof it was, so I went out and bought Vancouver, so glad I did. Perfect for those mornings that I don't have time to think

Perfect for the go-bag
-04.18.13
Quick Take: good value, travel size
This is a super cute compact, perfect for the go-bag or to take in a little clutch for touch-ups when you're clubbing, but I wouldn't use it for everyday. I appreciate the layout, the colors, and the availability of matte eyeshadow colors, but the convertible color doesn't taste very good and is very, very shimmery. It's superfine shimmer, but it's still highly saturated. After trying it once on my cheeks by itself, I'm pretty sure I'd only do that again if I had some finishing powder to go on top of it, because it's pretty sticky. It's not a lot better than just putting lipstick on your cheeks, and honestly lip stain would do a better, less shiny, less sticky job. Still, it is a great value and all of the colors are pretty perfect for my skin tone. The top right shadow ("granville") looks a little pinkish on my computer screen, but it's a matte tan/taupe that takes a lot of building to show up very much on my skin. The top center/left shadow ("cypress") looks like a sparkly gold or pewter, but when blended, just gives a subtle shimmer. The main center shadow is a decent browbone highlight, but again, pretty subtle. The other two shadows, however, the green (seaplane) and brown (coal harbour), are nicely deep, well pigmented and show up without having to build up lots of color. Four stars.

Quick Take: good value, travel size
I love these kits. I've already picked up three.
This one is perfect for my green eyes. The colors are light and soft and eye-opening, not obvious... and I still get a nice smoky effect with the lash-rimming brown.
I can't use the lip/blush creme on my cheeks without breaking out, but the creme is still terrific for lips.

Good value

The eyeshadow shades are great. Usually the eye shadows in these palettes are too glittery or the shades don't stay on, but I haven't noticed that with this one. The blush is a little darker than it looks and the consistency is different from the regular cream blushes.

Meh
-03.26.13
Quick Take: chalky, good price
This is my first purchase from Stila, and I'm kind of disappointed. The convertible color smelled like it was expired. The left and top shadow were chalky, and not very pigmented. All shadows were somewhat chalky actually. longevity was decent. Price is great. Maybe I just got a rotten palette. I say, go in and swatch these before you buy.

Quick Take: good value, travel size, fun
These will be perfect colors for me. The picture on the site here makes everything look a bit more purply than it really is. These are warm colors. Three of the eyeshadows are pearl, and three are matte.
Great value!

Great eyeshadows
-02.05.13
Quick Take: good value, travel size
Great eyeshadows but I wish there was one that could be used as a highlight.
It comes with an instructional booklet which is very helpful!
The lip color is great but I wish it was creamier.
Awesome to throw in your carry-on or travel bags as it has all you need!

Not for me
-01.20.13
Quick Take: good value, good for fair skin
None of these shades looked good on my tan/olive skin tone. They literally did not show up. I love stila products, but this was an absolute bust. Returned it.
It would look nice on fair skin. Also, the lipgloss is the nicest aspect.

Quick Take: good value, travel size
I got this for business travel and it really fits the bill. Colors are great, lots of flexibility and goes on smooth. Got me through a 16-hr work day with no touch ups (I did have Smashbox Lid Primer underneath it). I like that the package has a magnetic closure so nothing gets in to the compact. It's not clear by the picture and when you get the compact it looks pretty flimsy, but it's held up well. Definitely would recommend!

These colors have no pigment. They are not easily built either. Even with primer. The lip color is nice though.

-12.29.12
Quick Take: good value, travel size, good pigmentation, portable, fun
These are so cute! Small enough to even put in a clutch for touch-ups. I have purchased three so far (Lovely in London, Vibrant in Vancouver, and Pretty & Bright [Black Friday set w. a Kitten lip glaze]) and plan on purchasing more. These are SUCH a steal at $10!!! Looking at all of the palettes online side by side, a lot of the shadow colors look a bit similar, but for $10 you can't really complain. The lip/cheek cream is pretty and works well. I usually use the color on my cheeks since I have lip pigmentation. It's a nice natural finish too. Just one note, the cream color has no protection from shadow fall-out. Therefore a lot of shadow can get mixed into the cream, which is a total bummer. Just try to protect it, especially from the darker shadows. TheBalm did a good job with their BalmJovi palette, which also has cream products, but is protected by having a separate opening flap for the cream, aside from the shadow. But really, for $10, you can't go wrong with these! Makes a great gift!

Very poor product
-12.18.12
I though the colors in this palette we're nice, however, the quality is very poor. The eyeshadows are chalky, with very low pigmentation. The blush/lip color is not so great for your cheeks; it feels thick and greasy and like it's clogging your pores as soon as you put it on. Not even worth 10 bucks.

Really like it!
-12.17.12
Quick Take: good value, travel size
I really like the colors. I think they are quite pigmented. The cheek tint is a little shimmery, which I didn't like so much. One con is that there seems to be a lot of fallout. Even the slightest touch seems to make the eyeshadows...come apart? I don't know if that's the right way to say it. I use a primer on my lids so I have no problem with it on my face, I just worry some of the product is being lost whenever the palette is moved.

Glittery lip gloss, chalky/sheer eyeshadow
-12.12.12
These colors are not very pigmented, even with a heavy application they go on very sheer, although they stayed on well (with a primer). The only good thing I could say is that if you want just a hit of matte color for a professional look, then this could work for you. The lip color is very disappointing, its glittery, which I could not tell from the image, and is not moisturizing or flattering on me. I had hoped to take this little kit for business trips, but the lip color makes me feel like a 12 year old and the eye shadows seem too fragile to withstand my purse for a long trip.

can't beat a good value, the packaging by it self is so cute as well as convenient. The eyeshadows are nicely pigmented but the cream blush/lip color is to "goopy" for my taste.
