Swatched - Stila Empowered In Pink

This palette was limited edition, and an Ulta exclusive,  you might be able to find it on eBay.

I love the colors in this palette, but unfortunately they lack pigmentation.

Here are the swatches

Do you own this palette?

Swatched - Stila Trendsetting In Tokyo

This palette is perfect if you like more dramatic/bright makeup, but also suitable if you like lighter makeup because of the light beige, and pink.

Left to right Sake, Kawai, Shibuya, Peace Sign, Sakura  (Lip/cheek color)

Swatched - Stila Road To Radiance Across The USA

The palette is perfect if you like pinks and browns.

Left to right Snow Bunny, Valley Girl, Southern Belle, City Chick, and Hibiscus (Lip/cheek color)

I'll will eventually be swatching all of the Stila Travel Palettes that I own, I love these things, they're so cute!

Cruelty Free Alternatives

Often times companies like L'Oreal, Maybelline, and CoverGirl will come out with innovative/new products, and it's always tempting to try them, but there's one big problem! They test on animals, and I refuse to buy cosmetics tested on animals, so I thought it would be helpful to those who also buy cruelty free, to make a post with dupes/alternatives
