What happens when Stila gets serious.


You probably remember Stila as the '90s beauty brand with the pretty-girl graphics and the translucent purple eye shadow, expertly worn by Jessica Alba's cheerleading twit in Never Been Kissed.  At least, that's the way we recall the label, which means "Style" in Danish.

But with a new line of products, they're aiming to go from "that's so cute" to "this works with everything."  Included in their new array of "professional" offerings is the new Pro Artist Palette, a set of six eye shadows created by expert makeup artists.  Ranging from shimmery nude to deeply pigmented blue, the box allows you to apply one color, or mix several if you've got time for an eyeshadow experiment.

At $28, it's a solid deal - especially since, when added individually, the shadows cost over $100 retail.  And for those who still adore Stila's cutie-pie image, don't worry - the box comes complete with a trademark graphic, so you can get the power of professional makeup, with the illustrations you remember from your junior high bathroom breaks.

Actually, stila is not even a Danish word. But I'll let it slide.

I usually don't buy palettes because I don't love all of the color, but I have fallen in love with each of these. Totally seems worth buying.
