Stila Summer 08

For all that loved the old school Stila Confections for Eyes (6 sqaure pans of eyeshadows in a rectangle metal palette) good news....Stila is coming out with an updated one this summer. It will be $40.

Again there are 6 different color eyeshadows but I know for sure Mystic (formally pro only blue green color) is in there but I'm not sure what the other 5 colors are...but I figured the junkies needed to know whatever! Will update with any other new info!

I'm really excited for this! I've been trying to get my paws on the original confections, but no dice. Mystic looks gorgeous, I hope the packaging is as pretty as the light blue metal case.

The Confections for Eyes was also re-released under Shimmer Eye Palette (silver casing but was the same as Confections in the blue casing)....

The summer one is a mix of both existing and exclusive shades....the case is a metal bronze/orange color.

HTH!

Wow, this is great news! Thanks so much. I am so glad that newer fans to Stila will get the chance to own Mystic. It is a gorgeous and unique color.

The only reservation I have, and you know I'll be buying this anyway, lol-is that I was not a big fan of the packaging of Confections for Eyes. I feel like the shadows shatter more easily in that type of packaging for some reason-at least that is my experience.

Thank you for the heads up... I have the original confections and some of the 'exclusive' shades are VERY close to the Pro ones I have. Do you know if these are Pro re-release?

There's a picture of the palette. It includes:
Ray—shimmering golden copper
The perfect way to accent a healthy summer glow

Mystic—shimmering aqua blue
A bold shade for summer soirees

Kitten—shimmering nude pink
A Stila top-seller, this shade is works as a base tone or a fresh highlight

Wheat—pearlescent beige
The perfect base for a bronzed eye

Prize—soft gold shimmer
Pretty paired with any shade in the palette, this tone adds a golden sheen

Sun—shimmering golden peach
A sunny sparkle for day or night

wow thanks shimmer. this looks like the perfect time to start branching away from mac, and I REALLY want to try Stila's Cherry Crush lip stain, that palette looks gorgeous and I'd like to see what Kitten's all about.

Thing is, here in Canada I've never seen Stila. So my resolve would be to order it on Sephora's site. Do you guys anticipate this to be available through Sephora or just through Stilas site??? TIA!

The lippies I posted on the blog should be available through Sephora, particularly Charlotte, the coral one.

That's Talia, one of the new SPF 20 Shine Lip Colors. It goes on in a very 'just drank wine now I'm eating a pomegranate' color. And Cherry Crush is fantastic. I posted Charlotte on the blog, along with the Kitten Gloss (which, btw, my daughter keeps trying to steal from me!!).

I'm going to review the MAJOR Major Lash Mascara soon, I think anyone looking for mascara that gets every single hair will be stoked.

The palette looks great, and I do love kitten, but I wish they would stop putting it in every set! I'd much rather have only new shades.

I just got the new palette a week or so ago, and it represents better in person. The packaging is just amazing, although I hate that I leave fingerprints on it. *lol* I can't wait to break it in. Tee hee!

I have to say that I agree fleckspeck, and wish Stila would stop including Kitten in so many palettes. I don't know of any Stila fiend who doesn't have Kitten.

Is the new palette available at Sephora stores? I've checked .com and it's not there yet.

I admit I'm super bummed none of these shades are new.

Ooh, where is this summer palette available? I just checked Sephora and don't see it. It looks so lovely and wearable; I really don't need any more eye shadows but I want it!

Yea, but the thing is they are all GREAT staple shades and with them in the palette anyone who is new to the brand or to makeup in general will have a great selection of colors in one place.

I want Stila to rerelease Confections For Eyes (in the cute blue case, I know it came in Silver later, but I want that blue case dagnabbit!)...I want that so bad and I can't find anyone willing to sell it. =/ I am looking forward to this Summery version though! Mystic looks really pretty, and I like that's it's small and a variety of shades, I probably wouldn't use that one a whole lot.
