BareMinerals’ Enchanting Diamond

The base color is attractive, but it's nearly overwhelmed by the rather reflective pearl finish. The color applies evenly and stays in place well, though - as always - I personally get better results if I use a primer. But when selecting this color for a look, I have to keep in mind that I'll be seeing a brownish pearl with some brick tones, rather than the browned red that the shadow appears.

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeshadow in the pot; top right, the eyeshadow mixed with water and applied to bare skin; bottom left, the eyeshadow applied dry over primer.

This never came out in any kits after its release in 2009. I don't know if they plan on bringing it back. The base color itself can be attractive, but the pearl finish really kind of reduced the appeal of this shadow - to me, at least.
