Fiona Stiles Haul and Reviews

Happy Thursday, everyone!  The weekend is almost here! ? Today I’ll be sharing with you my review of the goodies from my Fiona Stiles Haul!  I’ve heard good things about the Fiona Stiles line, but sadly, they’re being discontinued at Ulta. On a good note, that meant I was able to snag these products at super discounts 😉  Let’s dive right in and see how they performed!

1. Matte Finish Foundation Concentrate – Discounted Retail Price $7.50Fiona Stiles Matte Finish Foundation Concentrate is a lightweight foundation concentrate that absorbs oil, camouflages imperfections, and delivers a long-lasting, velvet-matte finish. This highly-pigmented formula blends effortlessly to create a soft-focus effect on skin, delivering a dimensional velvet matte finish that never looks flat (ulta.com).  This packaging is ultra chic and feels so high-end.  I love the convenient pump, reflective purple cap, and heavy-duty frosted glass.  I picked up the Shade 08, a warm tan shade that matches my current summer skintone.  As for the formula, it provides medium coverage that is buildable.  I’ve applied this with both my EcoTools Beauty Sponge and a flat-top kabuki brush, and both gives a beautifully matte, but still natural finish.  Overall Rating: 10/10 stars.
2. Luminous Finish Foundation Concentrate – Discounted Retail Price $7.50Fiona Stiles Luminous Finish Foundation Concentrate is a weightless foundation concentrate created with high-impact pigments. A full, buildable coverage creates the look of a perfectly even complexion and erased imperfections, for a radiant and silky finish. This creamy, moisture-rich formula melts into skin to deliver instant hydration with seamless glide. Blends effortlessly for a flawless finish that promotes exquisite radiance (ulta.com).  Again, I love the chic, clear glass packaging with the convenient pump.  I picked up 2 shades: 06 and 08, for mixing and matching as my skintone changes throughout the year.  I prefer a matte finish at the moment, but this is a beautiful luminous foundation nonetheless.  It gives a very healthy, overall glow to your skin.  The warm undertones matched well and this foundation provides medium coverage with a nice, dewy finish.  Overall Rating: 9/10 stars.
3. Light Illusion Perfecting & Brightening Stylo – Discounted Retail Price $5.50Fiona Stiles Light Illusion Perfecting & Brightening Stylo is a luminizing and brightening concealer that brings light and radiance to the skin. Helps disguise signs of fatigue while brightening and adding dimension to the complexion. Brush applicator is ideal for touch-ups throughout the day (ulta.com).  I love concealers in these pen forms.  They makes it so quick and easy to apply product exactly where you need coverage.  If you have very problematic undereye circles or darkness, you will need a more heavy duty concealer before layering this on top.  But if you don’t need a lot of color correcting or are just looking for a touch of radiance, this lightweight concealer would be perfect for you.  This provides light to medium coverage with a luminous finish that really brightens the undereye area.  Overall Rating: 9/10 stars.
4. Full Cover Perfect Finish Concealer – Discounted Retail Price $6.00 Fiona Stiles Full Cover Perfect Finish Concealer is a buildable, high coverage concealer that hides the most stubborn imperfections. This lightweight, yet concentrated formula, seamlessly covers the darkest spots, blemishes and scars without caking, streaking or settling into fine lines or pores (ulta.com).  I am in love with this full coverage concealer.  It is creamy, blendable, and doesn’t cake on me throughout the day after I’ve set it or baked it with my RCMA No Color Powder (review here).  I have not tried using this over blemishes, but it works wonderfully for covering the dark birthmark under my right eye.  The formula reminds me of the MAC Studio Finish Concealer, another amazing full coverage concealer. Overall Rating: 10/10 stars.
5. Radiant Aqua Eye Veil in Arrow – Discounted Retail Price $5.50Fiona Stiles Radiant Aqua Eye Veil is an ultra-pigmented, long-lasting, crease-resistant eye liner, shadow and eye shadow base in one.  Innovative water-based texture offers optimal playtime before setting, delivering intensely rich color payoff in a single swipe. Weightless, smudge-resistant formula blends easily and can be layered or worn alone (ulta.com).  This glass jar packaging, while not very travel friendly, is so luxurious ? The fluffy texture is interesting, reminding me of whipped chocolate mousse or Nutella.  Yum! 😉  I love these warm, bronzey shades for easy smokey eyes in the summer (heck, year round!).  The formula is so creamy, pigmented, and blends like a dream, but work quickly because it doesn’t budge once it sets.  There are gold reflects throughout, but it isn’t a chunky glitter.  It just gives a beautiful metallic sheen to the lids.  I LOVE this eyeshadow and would definitely go back to pick up more shades.  Overall Rating: 10/10 stars.
