Hey Everyone,
This Spring, GOSH Cosmetics wants to make eyes sparkle and shine with their new 'Forever Eyeshadow Sticks'. With a bold, highly pigmented metallic finish, these super creamy pencils blend beautifully for a smooth, crease-free look (even my crepey lids don't crease). Once set, these water repellent pencils lock into place, and do not budge without the use of a good makeup remover.
While I, personally, like to top any cream shadow with a similarly coloured powder shadow, the new GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Sticks definitely have enough pigmentation to be worn on their own, and look great applied both, all over the lid, as well as, along the upper and lower lash lines.
Although I love the look of all eight shades packed on the lid, there are a couple of shades that, when blended out, lose pigmentation leaving behind an eyelid full of glitter (something I personally am not a fan of). With that said, the remaining six shades are absolutely stunning, giving the lids a beautiful high-shine finish.
Below is a closer look at all eight of GOSH's new 'Forever Eyeshadow Sticks':
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '01 Silver Rose':
A silver-taupe with both purple and brown undertones, 'Silver Rose' is, without a doubt, my favourite shade from the new collection and looks great packed onto the lid, or blended out in the crease for some added definition.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '02 Beige':
A light, beige-toned gold with iridescent gold glitter, 'Beige' looks beautiful packed onto the lid, but, unfortunately, loses pigmentation when blended out, leaving behind a lot of fairly chunky glitter (not my favourite look).
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '03 Light Copper':
A stunning metallic copper with strong brown undertones and finely milled golden shimmer, 'Light Copper' makes for a great daytime smoky eyed look when blended out both on the lid and along the lower lash line.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '04 Brown':
A deep, cool-toned chocolate brown packed with iridescent silver and gold shimmer, 'Brown' works nicely as both an all over lid shade and an eyeliner, when used with an angled liner brush.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '05 Grey':
A deep smoky charcoal packed with large chunks of silver shimmer, 'Grey' contains a little too much shimmer for my personal taste, losing pigmentation and leaving behind a eyeful of glitter when blended out.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '06 Plum':
A deep, cool-toned purple with very strong silver undertones and finely milled iridescent silver and purple shimmer, 'Plum' makes for a beautiful, simple smoky eyed look.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '07 Blue':
A deep navy with grey undertones and finely milled iridescent blue shimmer, 'Blue' blends beautifully for a stunning and sophisticated soft smoky look.
GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Stick in '08 Green':
A deep forest green with iridescent olive shimmer, 'Green' works surprisingly well as a beautiful pop of colour on both the upper and lower lash lines (as you may know, I'm not usually a fan of green eyeshadows). Silver Rose, Beige, Light Copper, Brown
Grey, Plum, Blue, Green
The new GOSH Forever Eyeshadow Sticks retail for $14 CND/0.1oz and can be found at Shoppers Drug Mart stores nationwide as of this month.
