The CSS file is most likely cached in your browser. If you remove your browser it should request the new file.

Sometime pressing refresh on your browser will work, if your browser is caching it. I've had that issue sometimes with IE caching the CSS.

I had that issue just today editing the css files, refresh should work if using IE, takes sometimes longer than other times.

To get IE to reload the new CSS file use a hard refresh:-

CTRL -> F5

This way it reloads everything including the CSS file.
