Stila Cosmetics Event


I got an invite to attend the Stila Cosmetics event held at Opus Hotel.  Stila is debuting their limited edition Vibrant in Vancouver Travel Palette along with other Stila make up products and Ardell lashes. I usually get my Stila cosmetics from Sephora and my Ardell lashes from Superstore. 


 I was super excited to attend this launch party because I use products from both brands quite often.  Also, I told myself that I would not miss this event..even with an injured eye ball. I didn't care, I was set on going. 

(Sorry for the glare in the photo)

The event was beautifully decorated with jewel toned peonies and hydrangea flowers that accented the Stila beauty products.  We tested out various make up products from their lip gloss in passion fruit (smells amazing by the way) and powdered blushes.  

Stila illuminators, bronzers and eye shadow palettes galore!

I'm wearing a Forever 21 tank and necklace, 7 For All Mankind jeans (similar),
 Ferragamo flats, and a Chanel flap.

What is Oh So Vonnie wearing? You should ask her or visit her blog.

Love the barbie pink blush on the right


We snacked on yummy oysters with various sauces than your plain old tabasco.  
I tried the far left one and it was an apple cider vinegar.


They fed us quite well.  There were always mini treats being served to us while we sipped on delicious fruit cocktails.  My favorite was the prosecco passion fruit bubbly.


Macnunu and I at the oyster and sushi bar.  I hope you can't tell that my right eye is still red.


I keep forgetting to take pictures of things during the night.  These lemon custard desserts were a nice surprise.  Anything custard is good in my books.  


 I got a Stila girl drawing done of me by the talented Mei Yu. Super cute!


The Vibrant in Vancouver Travel Palette.  I love how the colours are very wearable for every day.


Stila is known for their pigmented shimmery eye shadows and convertable lip/cheek colours.


Ardell was present at the event as well.  They girls helped us put on fake eye lashes.  The best seller are the 105 lashes.  The girls from Ardell kindly offered to put a pair of eye lashes on me.  I really love the look because they are pretty dramatic but not too outrageous on my eyes.  The 4th best selling lashes are the 110 because they are more natural.  


A more detailed photo of the lashes.  I love Ardell lashes. I'm excited to try the demi lashes which I have never worn before. 


In the end we left with gift bags from Stila and Ardell.  They had some awesome stuff that I will be reviewing soon. 



Here's a sneak peak at the swag.



Thank you Stila and Ardell for hosting such a fun and informative event.  
I'm looking forward to trying more of your products.

Life Update

I haven't been blogging much lately.  Forgive me readers.  So I guess I'll update you guys a little bit.


I've been sick a lot.  I had food poisoning one day because I made some nachos at home with some questionable cheese and sour cream (that tasted fine at first...).  Then a couple days ago I had an eye injury at the gym.  I was using a resistance elastic band doing a leg work out for toning, then all of the sudden, it snapped.  One end came up and smoked me in the right eye.  My friends came to my aid really quick and drove me to the ER.  After a very long wait, I found out I have a hemorrhage behind my pupil. The next day I went to see an Opthamologist and he couldn't see through my eyes well enough to determine the damage because there's too much blood.  Basically I have to have bed rest for 5 days - 1 week so the blood can clear and he can look through my eyes.


I'm so mad that I'm missing work.  I can't do anything that requires a lot of walking, bending over and lifting because that will make my hemorrhage bleed again.  They gave me an eye patch to wear.  It's clear and it's not one of those black ones - Boo, I wanted to be a pirate.  Now I have to take stupid transit to see my doctor since I can't drive.  Being able to not drive is horrible.  I feel like the modern day handicap.


Hmm.. so my dating life has been.. colourful.  I've yet to find out what I want.  But I know they don't want a girl with one eye! Haha... but apparently this one guy still wants to hang out regardless.


See ya around readers.  I'll try to blog a bit more.  I thought I could catch up on my tv shows during this down time but most of the times, my eyes just want to close.
