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!

Daytime EOTD and Harry Potter

WHY did they split the 7th HP movie into two parts! It totally defeats the purpose of... you know, oh well. It means more detail anyway. I went to go see the Deathly Hallows pt 1 tonight. It wasn't bad. I wasn't sure where they were going to end it, and Dumbledore's burial site looked like an ostentatious granite bunker, but other than that I thought it was okay. The Weasley twins will always be my favorites ^.^

Anyway, on to the EOTDs. I rarely do an exclusively "daytime" look, since I don't usually reign in my dramatics when it comes to makeup, no matter what it's like outside. But Fyrinnae's Damn Paladins is such a great taupe I kind of had to!
 It's all Damn Paladins, with a bit of Titania in the corner and a highlight of Shiro's Meowth shade. Pretty neutral for me, but I love it.
So here's pics of the daytime look:
 

This second look is what I wore to the movie. Turns out it was very fitting, as everything in the movie seemed to be a dark blue.

1. Damask Grey - Face Candy Couture
2. Chill - Face Candy Couture
3. Nymphette - Evil Shades
4. Didn't use a liner (I'm just gonna say N/A from now on, okay?)
5. Chill - Face Candy Couture
6. N/A
7. Dinosaur Plushie - Fyrinnae

So here's the pictures, and then I'll shut up for the night
(A bit pic-heavy cause I was trying to capture Chill)

Fyrinnae Samples!

I'd like to say, before I begin, 1: that I am in loooove with these eyeshadows. The names are fun and quirky and the colors are gorgeous! And 2: because of the many many pictures, this will be a loooooong post.

I placed an order with Fyrinnae, browsed their website again, found more goodies that made me drool all over my keyboard, and bought those as well. I was refunded for the second package's shipping and the orders were combined. I got (these were all samples, by the way, as this was my first experience with Fyrinnae):
Finishing Powders/ Primers:
Pixie Epoxy
Glow Blush: Hypnotize, Enchant
Eyeshadow: Titania, The Fancy Lad, Chaotic Evil, Darling Misfit, Rapunzel Had Extensions, Kamikaze, Kimchi, Sake & Sashimi, Druid Werewolf, Damn Paladins, Dressed to Kill, Dragon's Wing, Dinosaur Plushie, The Randy Ferret
Free Sample: Sugar Skulls

I love the names! Eeeee!
This is the part that may be really exciting or may become super monotonous: I haven't done swatches yet, but I've gotten pictures of each color and yes, I will be putting them all up here (with the descriptions according to http://www.fyrinnae.com/) These go from top to bottom, top is the label, middle is the color without flash, and bottom is the color with flash... the few with a fourth shot are to show the glitter better. I'm making these pictures a bit larger than I normally would, so click on them to see the color better.

Glow Blush:
Enchant: (Soft peach with a touch of pink shimmer)

Hypnotize (Light dusty-peach shade with a soft glow)

Eyeshadow:
Sugar Skulls: (Vibrant deep pink, leaning warm but not overly so, with a glimmering orange (not gold!) highlight that adds dimension)


Chaotic Evil: (Brilliant shimmering pink loaded with silvery sparkle)

The Fancy Lad: (Vivid warm pink with a green sparkle highlight)


Titania: (Shimmery, glowing light pink with a paler pink highlight and a hint of golden sparkle)

Rapunzel Had Extensions: (Stunning golden pink-peach)

Kamikaze: (Bright fire-engine red (leans warm), filled with red sparkle)

The Randy Ferret: (Deep smokey forest green with a touch of lighter green & teal shimmer, and subtle purple sparkles throughout)

Dragon's Wing: (Gorgeous shimmery green with a pale aqua highlight)


Dressed to Kill: (Glimmering, glowing deceptive gilded green "duocolor"with flashes of gold and green sparkle)


Sake & Sashimi: (Rich shimmering bronze brown with flashes of green sparkle)

Damn Paladins: (Soft, satiny taupe with a gentle light blue highlight)


Dinosaur Plushie: (True bright silver filled with multi-colored sparkle, some of which can change hue in different light)

That took a lot longer than I thought it would...
Well, that's all folks. Swatches will be up soon, as if this post needs any more pictures!
