  • Stila Fever

    4.19.2009

    Bandar Utama Stila

    KLCC Stila

    It was MAD. That would be one word best describe for the Stila Craze going on for the past few weeks. Girls from all over Malaysia, whether from Kelantan or JB or just staying next to a shopping center would hunt down Stila counters just to get their hands on cosmetics and collectibles at a marked down price. All because of this:

    Stila Cosmetics is going back to the USA!
    Stila thanks you for your years of support and stila would definitely miss you! Effective 4th April 2009 until 30th April 2009, all stila products can be found at a great bargain price. Do drop by our counters and bring some of the stila products home!


    I have made a lot of new friends from this craze at BU, KLCC and MidValley. Bloggers, readers, old friends, friends, family and even people from sns (shoppingnsales.com). I am very happy to have met you girls and exchange stories/opinions and sales experience! I do feel embarassed when girls tell me that they started buying Stila after reading my blog. I probably spread some Stila Fever around and infected my friends, family and readers (who in turn infected their circle of people and the list goes on). While it's a good time to experiment and buy cosmetics at a bargain, do know that there are pros & cons to every beauty product around. Ask the beautician/SA about the use, if it's suitable for your skin/need.


    The long wait made easier, meeting new friends & sharing shopping experiences. It's no sugar and icing task buying stila cosmetics when everyone is hunting for it. Sometimes you have to wait a few days just to buy a lipglaze and sometimes you'll take work leave just to go wait a whole day and still have nothing to buy back home. Sometimes you just need to look at the right places and be there at the right time.
    Stila Isetan Gardens, not mobbed at night!

    this canvas bag is going for rm25
    (i didn't buy but I guess it would look good with white clothing)
    Will Stila be closing down end of April or May? Have you gotten what you want? Are you sad that Stila is going back to USA? What will u do after this with no Stila? What collectibles did u get? Did u manage to get the make up case? What is your favourite Stila item? Share with me your pal Miu.
