Friday, September 24th, 2010

Korres Golden Goddess CollectionThe Golden Goddess Collection is Korres best selling color products. All the products in the collection are natural and don't contain Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic Fragrances- Petro-Chemicals- Phthalates- GMO or Triclosan.

Korres put these shades together so a goddess like look could be created. It says the colors blend well together, so a natural smokey eye look can be devised.

What comes in the collection?

Below is a list of the products in the Golden Goddess Collection:

  1. 0.27 fl oz Abyssinia Mascara in Black- Volumizing for a false lash effect
  2. Silver 51S eyeshadow- contain primrose oil for easy blending
  3. Golden Bronze 27S eyeshadow- contain primrose oil for easy blending
  4. Golden Brown 34S eyeshadow- contain primrose oil for easy blending

  6. 0.04 oz Eyeliner Pencil in Golden 6S- creamy for easy smudging
  7. 0.20 fl. oz Cherry Oil Lip gloss in Bronze 37- contains antioxidants vitamins C and E

Personally I think this is a really nice set of colors, could be very appealing for those of you that like the more natural look and ingredients.

To Sum Up

The color combination went down very well with most patrons, as they said they work well together to create a pretty natural look.

However, some of the users found the colors didn't work for their skin tone (usually very light skin ). One lady even said the eye shadows made her eyes itch.

On the whole most people relished this collection and they think it is good value at $39.50 for the set.
