I've always really liked the Fyrinnae Eyeshadows. But never got around to making another order - until now! Well I say now, it was towards the end of last year! And I must say I managed to pick some real corkers, even better than the ones I had already. They are available from the Fyrinnae Website, I hope you enjoy the swatches and the EOTD at the bottom of the post :)
Pricing
Arcane Magic Line - $2 for a 1/4tsp sample in a jar, $6.35 for a Full Size jar (3g).
The Regular Line - $2 for a 1/3tsp sample in a jar, $5.90 for a Full Size jar (3g).
But on with the swatches, which is what you're all here for really! They are all done of Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy and as always they are much more beautiful and vibrant in real life! The writing in italics is taken from the website. Enjoy :)
Catrina Cabaret - 'Dark, smokey teal frolicks with a fun pink-purple highlight and sparkle' - A blackened charcoaly teal with a pinky purple glitter to it.
Dinosaur Plushie - 'Dinosaur Plushie is filled with much more multi-colored sparkle, some of which can change hue in different light' - Actually more wearable than it sounds. A metallic silver with multi-coloured micro-glitter - lots of blue and green!
Boytoy - 'Varying hues of vibrant green sparkle and shimmer on a soft black base. Leans cool.' - Pretty much what they said! This is deeper, less gold and more foresty in shade than the swatches on the website suggest. Love this!
Alchemist's Curse (Arcane Magic) - 'This shadow is pink shimmer and sparkle on black, but closer to light or at a different angle and it becomes a vivid gold to green, the black base setting off the highlights.' - I can't see any green to this at all and the gold is very subtle. It's more of a glittery pinky purple black based shade.
Herbivore - 'Soft lavender with a light green highlight.' - A lot shorter description than the one above! This is a pinky lilac with a lime green duochrome.
Faerie Glamour (Arcane Magic) - 'Violet base with an aqua shimmer that changes to a bright pink when closer to light' - This is a very blue based purple. The aqua sheen is beautiful, but you really have to look at certain angles to see the pink. Still love it though!
Digital Faerie - 'Stunning deep sky blue with green shimmer' - The blue and green kinda blend into one to give more of an aqua colour with a pearly finish. Really pretty this one.
Winter Again - 'Semi-sheer white with soft blue and turquoise shimmer' - Spot on, this isn't something I'd use as an all over lid shade, but it works well on the inner corner of the eye to highlight. Has a bit more colour than in the picture.
Shinigami - 'Deep, smoldering purple entwinted with a scattering of blue and crimson sparkle.' - Shiro has a shadow with the same name, it confused me when this came! The descriptions pretty spot on, with the purple being black based.
The Look
I think I have an addiction to green and purple eyeshadows! I really should spread my wings a little more into the world of other colours!
Inner Corner - WinterAgain
Lid - Digital Faerie
Crease - Herbivore
Deepen Crease - Catrina Cabaret
What is your favourite Fyrinnae shadow? I'd love to hear what your liking! I hope you liked this post and found it helpful/interesting, but if you have any further questions then don't hesitate to ask. Thanks everyone for stopping by and all your lovely comments recently. I really appreciate it, H :)

Wow, I'm sure it won't be easy to find such amazing pigments at Mac! Now I'm really intrigued to try out this brand, it's so nice that you're able to order samples as well. Boytoy looks lush ;)
ReplyDeleteI'll be honest I haven't tried any Mac pigments, but I don't really feel the need to when there's so much other cheaper options around! And I agree, sample sizes are brilliant as I rarely get through a whole shadow!
DeleteYou've bought just the kinds of shades I love! Purple is my favourite colour but blue makes brown eyes look stunning, doesn't it? I say this every time I see a Fyrinnae haul but why oh why haven't I ordered from them already? Maybe placing a Fyrinnae order will be my reward for a successful project 10 pan.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great reward Julianne, well done! I'd be surprised if you're disappointed as the shades are all so beautiful! And yes blue does make brown eyes pop, but like you I'd much rather have a purple! - with a bluer tone:)
Deleteabsolutely beautiful shades!
ReplyDeleteGlad you think so, they really are :)
Delete:o Dinosaur plushie is so pretty! Such a cute name too ^_^
ReplyDeleteIm new on the indie bandwagon but seriously may have to invest after IMATS london!
I'm reasonably new with the indie make-up too, but so far I'm loving it! I hope you have an amazing time at IMAT's too, I'm so jealous! Make sure you pick up lots of bargains!
DeleteWow, beautiful colours. I love every single one.
