A must-have in every Stila girl’s kit.

Stila Convertible lip&cheek cream Color PoppyI love the packaging, its so girly. Also color of each case was similar to the shade of the product inside, so if incase you buy two of them, picking out the one you need from the makeup stash wouldn’t be a challenge.

Stila Convertible lip & cheek Color PoppyPoppy is a bright red shade. If you ask me why I picked red for a blush, its because Lip & Cheek stains are generally translucent formulas which appear sheer when applied. We can always tone down bright or dark shades.

I love how creamy, light & non-greasy the texture is. I apply some at the back of my hand, rub it and then apply it on  my cheeks by gently dabbing and blending. I have to be very carefull as one small mistake can convert me into a clown LOL.

It blends and looks really natural on cheeks. The best part is that you wouldn’t feel it drying up your cheeks ! It just imparts a natural glow..

Stila Convertible lip & cheek cream Color Poppy swatchesOn lips it works like a stain. Pigmentation is great ! You can layer up to build the intensity. It doesn’t feel drying initially but yes after couple of hours you might need a lip balm.

It stays on my cheeks whole day !!!!! On lips it fades away after 6 hours with meal n between. In this price I would have appreciated a better staying power on lips..

How it looks on me. I have applied it on bare skin with a heavy hand as the camera flash was washing away the color..

I love how natural it looks.. Also if you apply too much on cheeks by mistake, tone it down by applying loose powder on top of it..

My all time favorite The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Stain works almost equally good except the fact that it does take too much product to actually show up on me :/

I am definitely loving Stila Convertible color poppy !! This one shade is going to compliment all skin tones.. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative do check out The Body Shop Lip & Cheek Stain.

The only downside is the price.. but if you are working and don’t want to look too madeup, try this product. Its worth and due to great pigmentation its going to last a long time.
