Stila Holiday 2010 Collection

Dear Stila, please release a collection of single products that have a theme to them! I always enjoy your new products but I miss when actual collections were released. I love your sets and palettes madly but I want to channel this love into products that I can purchase to create a new look each season. That being said, this isn't happening this season so I can only check the new items out and hope for a single product collection this spring. This collection consists of all palettes and sets with the exception of one single product. I can already see some fabulous gifts that can cross off a few friends on my list.

Here is the new collection...

Two is always better than one.

Acai Crush Lip & Cheek Stain - We can all use a little boost over the holidays. And thanks to our latest addition to the Stila Crush family, which comes infused with Acai - one of the richest super fruits in the world, you can get the boost you need with a click of a pen. Known for its amazing healthy benefits, Acai is celebrated for its high levels of anti-oxidants and immunity-boosting powers. It also helps protect cells from free radical damage to keep skin looking younger longer. Our latest Crush delivers a rich, vibrant red color - a not-so-subtle but still perfectly sheer stain that is super long-lasting. Acai Crush also happens to be super smart, too. The formula reacts with the pH level of the skin to create the perfect pop of color on the lips and the cheeks that is uniquely you. Infuse your holidays with a nourishing color fix that has incredible staying power. This is a must-have Lip & Cheek Stain for a beautiful, naturally rosy finish.

Brush Set Essentials - A must-have for any makeup maven, Stila's Brush Set features five essential brushes for easy makeup application.

Brushes include: #2 - Under Eye Concealer Brush, #4 - Lip Color and Liner Brush, #9 - All Over Blend Brush, #11 - Concealer Brush, #24 - Powder Brush.

I think this collection contains the best gifts so far this season! My favorite for myself is the Lip Glaze collection and I love that the size is larger this time around. I would give both go the eye shadow palettes as gifts for friends. Overall, the biggest letdown is the Fabulous in Fiji set, the colors are totally out of season and not one shade would work for me.

Stila - I am still begging you for single product color collection this spring!
