Although it is no longer made, this eyeshadow by Scott Barnes was recently given to me, brand spanking new, and never used.
I had never heard of Scott Barnes before, but after receiving the Eye
Ice, in the Goddess color, I was intrigued to find out more about it.
This one in particular is a fan favorite, and many are begging for it to
make a comeback, with some new products as well.
The Color:
Scott Barnes, Eye Ice in the color Goddess is beautiful in the small
palette it comes in. It's a lovely pale green, with a shimmery silver
tone to it that I knew immediately would look flattering on my upper
brow bone for highlighting.
The issue however was that I was not sure how well this eyeshadow
would work. I have gotten so used to using pigment powders by Pearl EX,
which not only save me a ton of money considering that they come in
packs of many different colors, but they also became my favorite because
they never fade, or crease.
Even the most expensive eye shadows I have bought have faded, or
creased. When it came to Scott Barnes, I didn't really want to change up
my usual, but considering the fact that many women are already fans of
Scott Barnes cosmetics, I assumed they may be interested in how Goddess
looks, and works.
My Use:
I did my eye up with my Pearl EX powder, and then added some Goddess
to my upper brow for highlighting. It went on smooth, and really
accentuated the area with the lovely shimmering effect. I liked it, but
the green coloring was barely recognizable. I could have poured on a
slew more of the eyeshadow, but knew it would probably get messy, or ash
down to the rest of my face if I over coated the lid in the eyeshadow.
Last:
I was pretty surprised that Goddess was able to keep up with my Pearl
EX powder. It managed to stay in place, and the shimmer lasted all day
long. I liked it, it worked just as well as my usual, and seeing that
I'm nearly out of my silver shimmer pigments, Goddess would make up for
it.
Overall:
Scott Barnes Goddess is a winner in my opinion. If you are a fan, I'd
suggest this one to you, especially for highlighting, as the high beam
shimmery shine is very flattering on upper brow bones.
This eyeshadow sells for around $17.00 online. I have never seen it in
stores, so if you want it, get it online before its gone.
