<em>bareMinerals The Grand Finale Eyeshadow Duo</em></p>
<h2>bareMinerals The Grand Finale Eyeshadow Duo</h2>
<p>Debuting at the beginning of October, <span class="largetextid">bareMinerals The Grand Finale Eyeshadow Duo</span> ($20.00 for 0.10 oz.) is all starry night skies with Standing O and Climax. The new pressed eyeshadow formula has a SeaNutritive Mineral Complex that gives the shadow a “creamy, silky smooth” texture with “seamless blendability” and “stay-true color.” It’s supposed to be long-wearing whether worn alone or with primer–you shouldn’t see any creasing or fading. I’ve tested various combinations of shades from the duos and quads, and I’ve happily achieved ten hours of solid wear without a primer underneath. For a review of the packaging, please read my <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/bare-escentuals-bareminerals-showstopper-eyeshadow-duo-review-photos-swatches">original review</a>.</p>
<p><span class="shadereview">Standing O</span> is a light-medium gold with this faint hint of green. It&#8217;s not really green at all, but there&#8217;s just that inkling that keeps it from being more like an orangey gold. It has a frosted, metallic finish, and the texture and payoff are nice. It&#8217;s a touch darker than <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/mac-posh-paradise-paint-pots-swatches-photos-reviews#image6">MAC Treasure Hunt</a>. It&#8217;s not as yellow as <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/nars-goldfinger-eyeshadow-review-photos-swatches#image1">NARS Goldfinger</a>. It&#8217;s almost like the golden color of MAC Gorgeous Gold but lacks the greenish duochrome aspect.</p>
<p><span class="shadereview">Climax</span> is a purple-tinted navy blue with a satiny sheen. The texture is soft and smooth, while the pigmentation is right on. It&#8217;s similar to <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/mac-fall-colour-pigments-swatches-photos-reviews#image1">MAC Blue Storm</a>, <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/wet-n-wild-earth-looks-small-from-down-here-eyeshadow-trio-review-photos-swatches#image2">Wet &#8216;n&#8217; Wild Earth Looks Small From Down Here</a>, and <a href="http://www.temptalia.com/urban-decay-goddess-eyeshadow-review-photos-swatches#image1">Urban Decay Goddess</a>.</p>
