FOTD using Stila 'tis the season to dazzle' palette

Ever since I got all my pretty new makeup for Christmas I have been loving experimenting with all the different eyeshadow palettes and today I have used everything in the Stila 'tis the season to dazzle palette (including the blush & highlight) and liked the look I created so I thought I'd show you in a FOTD :)

Top to bottom, L to R: eyeshadows- candle, star, tinsel, wrapping, blush-cheer, highlighter- kitten.

So that was the look! I think all of the colours in this palette really compliment eachother and I was happy to see the kitten highlighter in it (which I now love!)

What else I'm wearing:
Face: Bourjois healthy mix serum foundation-51, Bobbi brown corrector-porcelain bisque, collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer-1 fair, Blush & highlight in palette.
Eyes: Illamasqua brow cake-thunder, Too faced shadow insurance, Benefit creasless cream shadow- skinny jeans (as a base), eyeshadows in palette, Maybelline gel liner, Covergirl lash blast mascara
Lips: Mac pro longwear lipcreme- overtime.

I think this palette is really cute and sleek and is such a good idea as it has all things you need for a party look or even a slightly more dramatic daytime look which is what I have done. I will definately be keeping an eye out for more of these little palettes.

FOTD using Stila Natural eyes palette

Hello everyone hope you are well. Todays FOTD was done using the Stila natural eyes eyeshadow palette (it also seems to be known as 'in the light' on the internet). In the palette there are 10 gorgeous neutrals going from light to smokier shades and a full sized smudgestick waterproof eyeliner in damsel.

This is also the makeup look that I wore to my boyfriends graduation yesterday so the palette is perfect for creating subtle occasion looks as well as every day and evening looks..a very versatile palette.
Without further ado, here is a picture of the palette followed by my FOTD pictures:

L to R: Bare, Kitten, bliss, sunset, sandstone, champagne, gilded gold, luster, night sky, ebony and smudges tick waterproof eyeliner in damsel.

From the palette I used bare (browbone), kitten (lid), bliss & sandstone (crease & outer v) and the damsel eyeliner smudged along the upper and lower lash lines.

Overall this is a lovely palette, great for travelling. I also think it would make a really nice Christmas gift for any makeup lover. You can buy it from feel unique:
