Stila scores well with this Sephora-exclusive set ($50). The idea behind these multi-use products is that you can have color without lying out in the sun, or committing to a sunless tanning product. There are three products packaged in an adorable orange Stila terry cloth cosmetic case. Prior to using the limited edition four shadow summer palette, Stila was not a line that excited me, but now, I am discovering products that will definitely become makeup shelf staples.

First I tried the Color Push Up in the best selling shade, Blush Flush, which is oil free, and perfect for all skin types. This can be applied to eyes, cheeks, lips, shoulders, simply anywhere you want to add some sexy summer color. I found it to be easy to apply and blend, which is great for someone like me because it's absolutely mistake-proof. It is small enough to tote in cosmetic case, beach bag, or even a pocket for desired touches. It feels light on the skin, and allows the user to control the depth by the amount of product applied. This is definitely a product I will be using this season.

Next I used Pivotal Sun Bronzing Tint in Shade 1 which is packaged in a cute compact with a swivel lid. The product provides sheer coverage, minimizes pores (an awesome attribute), and reveals inherent dewiness. I found this product a little difficult to work with as it's not easy to blend, and it left some streaking on my face, but then again, I'm cosmetically challenged when it comes to using these tinted types of products. I did however find the coverage to be sheer, sexy, and natural, leaving my skin looking as though it was exposed to the sun. Perhaps someone with better makeup application skills would be happier with this tint.

Last I tried Color Courier in Quick Nude, my favorite of the set. A wonderful sharpener with the Stila logo etched upon it is included so sharpening this oversized pencil is a breeze. This perfect pencil can be applied to lips, eyes, and cheeks, and if I was to ever be stuck on, let's say, the show Survivor, this would be the one product I would want to have because it does the job of three products. Though the shade is Nude, it actually has some shimmer, and leaves the face looking brighter and healthier. This is definitely a product I will be carrying around all summer long. All in all, this is a set that belongs in everyone's beach bag, but please doesn't forget the umbrella, and sunscreen.
