Celebrity Makeup Artist, Scott Barnes

OWNER OF L MAKEUP INSTITUTE GETS REAL WITH

CELEBRITY MAKEUP ARTIST SCOTT BARNES

By Lissette Waugh lmi.edu

Scott Barnes, Celebrity Makeup Artist extraordinaire, is known for painting the faces of Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Beyonce, to name a few. His talents do not stop there. Scott Barnes began his career as a fine arts painter at Parsons School of Art and Design, where he used his finely honed techniques to re-create light, shadow, and texture. Publisher of About Face Makeup with Jlo gracing the cover, he has now created what I think is his best Makeup line yet. I had the opportunity to Interview Scott and ask him about his new Makeup line and what’s to come in 2022.

RVM:

Scott, tell me about your new makeup line you designed?

There are so many amazing products in your line. I love your Contour Palette. Which would be your favorite creation in this Line?

As the year comes to an end, can you share with me what Makeup Trend you are excited to say, Bye, Bye to?

What can we expect to see from you in 2022?

SB:

I currently launched various products including MAXXX OUT Mascara, SNATURAL No. 2 Eyeshadow palette, and the recently released coveted Holiday Music Box for the winter season. The Holiday Music Box cover art I sketched myself. The box includes 40 dazzling eyeshadows, creamy bronzers and contours, shimmery highlighters, and delicate blushes. The looks are endless with the Holiday Music Box!

Each product I curated and designed are special, it’s hard for me to choose a product that stands out as my favorite. If he had to choose 1, I would say SNATURAL No.1 because of its diversity while creating looks and it’s one of my constant go-to’s during shoots and makeup glam sessions.

Say goodbye to using kitchen ware as makeup tools! It’s ridiculous (and unsanitary!) Just use the tools made for the actual purpose!

I have so many exciting projects and launches coming out in 2022 including product lines people have been asking for years! I can’t go into too much detail about what’s coming, but, I will say that I am excited to launch products that cater to everyone whether you’re just starting out in makeup or have been a beauty aficionado for years.

Rest assured we will be seeing great things from Scott Barnes. All his products are available online: scottbarnes.com
