Stila Glamour Galore

Every holiday season, Stila usually releases a blockbuster set of their bestselling products packaged in a huge box. This year's blockbuster set is exclusive to Sephora.com and available only online. The Glamour Galore Set contains:

1. five fab .08 fl oz Lip Glazes in Spiced Cider, Spiced Ginger, Praline, Gingerbread, and Spiced Pumpkin (full size)
2. two clear color .07 oz Moisturizing Lip Tints SPF 8 in Mocha and Sugar
3. two .13 oz cream Lip Colors in Billie and Cynthia
4. three .09 oz Eye Shadows in Golightly, Moonlight, and Twig
5. two .007 Convertible Eye Colors in Forest and Port
6. six .03 oz All Over Shimmer Eye Colors in *4, *5, *7, *10, *11, *13
7. two .30 oz All Over Shimmer Powders in #6 and #9.

Stila has done away with the chunky box and thrown in a black tote bag instead. I think they could have been more creative with this set given that this is the third or forth time that they're doing it. But at least they've included a more interesting range of shades instead of the usual Kitten eyeshadow. Another good change is that the lip glazes are the full size versions and not the mini/classic sizes. If used daily, one lip glaze would barely last a month. That's how little product there is in this babies! This set retails for US$150 and claims to have a value of US$400.

The set is not yet in stock on Sephora.com but if it becomes available before 21 November, you can get it for 20% using the Friends & Family promo code, FF2007.
