Do What You Wish EOTD

This is the first of a (probably very extensive) new line of theme EOTDs. I happen to be very excited about these because they're all based around The Neverending Story (the book, not the movie). I've got a lot of ideas and I recommend the book because it's awesome. But get the hardback version with the colored ink. That's the best way to go.
Anyway, this is look is inspired by Bastian and The Childlike Empress' first meeting; "The beginning is always dark"
I'll give you a heads up here. If you haven't read the book, there will probably be a lot of EOTDs that just don't make as much sense. Some are more or less explained by the movie, if you've seen that. But either way, pretty makeup colors right? Enjoy!
Here's what I used (check my New Year's post for the explanation behind this weird numbering system I've worked out):
1. Broken Glass - Detrivore
2. Immortality - Fyrinnae
3. Dinosaur Plushie - Fyrinnae
4. N/A
5. Immortality - Fyrinnae
6. NYC Black Eye Pencil
7. Golden Fair matte base - Everyday Minerals

And here's where I tried and mostly failed to capture the immenseness of sparkle. As always, click on the pictures for more detail!



And some sparklier shots with flash!

Fyrinnae Haul with Swatches!

Here's the contents of my second Fyrinnae haul, isn't it lovely?

I got two lip lustres as well, and I've yet to master the texture but the scent is delicious! It reminds me of caramel.

I took several swatch pictures. I got a lot of jewel-tones and autumnal colors this time around and there's not a single one that I didn't adore.
Here are the first eight that I swatched (over Pixie Epoxy of course) with indoor light and then with flash:
Top Row: Monarch Butterfly, Feline Familiars, Okapi, Avian Shapeshifter
Bottom Row: Leopard-Print Galaxy, Pumpkinfire, Fire Opal, Velvet Vampire
Second eight:
Top Row: Greenman's Forest, Candy Coated, Conjuror, Wicked
Bottom Row: Faerie Glamour, Madame & Eve's, Mystic, Evocation

Last three and lip lustre swatches:
Immortality, Dragonmagic, Dark Fantasy
Lip Lustres: Top, Bloodstains. Bottom, Type A.


And one last picture to show of the AMAZING sparkles in Immortality! (And also Dark Fantasy because I think it might be my absolute favorite of all the shadows in this order)

Feast your eyes! I can't wait to try these shades out ^.^
