Fans of makeup-artist-to-the-stars Scott Barnes' eponymous makeup brand were bummed a few months ago when the line was discontinued.
So here's some good news - Barnes is back in business with a new collection of makeup and body care products that will launch within the next year to 18 months. WWD reports that the makeup artist inked a deal with Earthbound, (the company that linked Isaac Mizrahi with Target), to secure wide distribution for makeup, health and beauty aids, along with and lifestyle items, under the Scott Barnes tag.
Barnes is best known for lit-from-within glowing looks with sunny bronzed skin and pale lips, a technique he perfected on longtime client Jennifer Lopez. This January Barnes is releasing a book -- featuring Lopez as cover girl -- with step-by-step instructions on how to transform yourself with makeup.
Even though the rest of his line isn't out yet, Barnes couldn't wait to relaunch one of his most popular products, Body Bling, which is an illuminating body bronzer that delivers sexy, glowing Jennifer Lopez-esque skin.
And his fans are ready. "Every day I hear from customers asking about the line and what I have planned," Barnes told StyleList. "They are even more excited now that Body Bling is back and my first book is being published. They can't wait for the full line to be back."
Stay tuned to find out when and where you can find Barnes' collection, but in the meantime you can order Body Bling at scottbarnes.com.
