What a Stila

Stila has been a brand I've been admiring from afar for a long time. It's hard to find over here in Ireland so mostly I lusted over the pretty, innovative and quirky beauty range via magazines, internet reviews and recommendations and I was particularly intrigued by their highly-lauded Convertible Colour range.

Stila Convertible Colour in Petunia €21.50, Stay All Day Liquid Eye Liner €17.50

Finally, I decided I had to try it see what all the fuss was about and, after quite a far reaching department store search, I had almost given up when I was strolling in Harvey Nicholl's in Dundrum one day and lo and behold I finally found a Stila counter, and almost skipped over to it -  much to the amusement of the sales assistant!  And that was the start of a very exciting beauty relationship and a new priority on my wish list! 

All Buttered Up: Butter London's Makeup Range

butter LONDON is a label renowned for its incredible nail polishes, and justly so. However, exciting news came to us last year that the brand was expanding to include butter LONDON makeup.

And, as it went with the nail polishes, the makeup is just beautiful; carefully selected and long-lasting, including a vibrant range of colours to choose from while at the same time not overloading the market with every colour under the sun. You can immediately see by the quality of the makeup that this brand will graduate quickly to become classic go-tos in many a makeup bag from herein out.
