Over the years, beauty junkies like me have seen some products reach what I would describe as mass saturation. Beauty editors plug this product for a period of time, so much so that the company decides to branch out and offer another version. Today I'm going to highlight the first of two such products: Stila Kitten and Nars Orgasm. Um okay the names are not my idea and I realize that this pairing could be construed in a number of different ways. So it's best to just move on. Today, as you guessed from the title, is about Stila Kitten

A bit of background: Stila Kitten first debuted as an eyeshadow.back in 1997. A ton of people fell in love with it's neutral, beige color with a touch of pink and shimmer. It's on the frostier/shimmery side as far as shadows go, so it may be a little much for an all over lid application, but works great as a highlighter on the brow bone. Personally, i have used it all over since I have small eyes, and I generally use other colors as well.

So that's what it looks like on the website: And here it is on my hand; the frostiness really comes through here.

And now, here is how it looks on my eye - just the left side here, so you can see the difference it makes.

Normally I wouldn't wear Kitten alone, but now you have an idea of how neutral it is. Since it is such a flattering color, Stila has released 4 other products under the Kitten name. I have to admit, without trying them, the lip products might be too pale for me., I am unsure about how it will work with my skintone.I think it might be a good layering option to lighten up a dark lipstick or to add some shimmer to a neutral, but I probably wouldn't wear it alone.

Kitten Lip Shimmer Gloss
Kitten Lip Glaze
Kitten Silk Eye Shadow Wash

So that's the Kitten collection from Stila. I think the other natural fit would be a nail polish, but otherwise, this is a neutral collection that most people should find pretty wearable. All the products should be available wherever Stila products are sold.
