New Orders and EOTD

Hey guys! I just placed my second order with Fyrinnae, and I'm super excited. It included two lip lustres this time and I'm not sure what to expect, but I bet whatever consistency they really are, they'll be wonderful. Also, after a month's wait, my first Archetype Cosmetics order has apparently shipped although I can't get any tracking info and it's been several days. The last order I recieved was a set of 9 samples from Pure Luxe. I've read a lot of reviews that say their products are definitely individual, and others that say that they're just repackaged TKB. I'm really hoping it's not the latter, but I haven't seen any replicas of the colors I bought. I'll do a review on those later, but I just got back from being on holiday and I'm still kind of lazy. The review and swatches will be up in a few days.

I'm including this EOTD, because the sun is actually shining here, and I felt that these colors would catch it well. Sorry about the lighting. I haven't quite mastered this camera yet.


Here's what I used:

1. Rapunzel Had Extensions - Fyrinnae (Detrivore's Hilite Gold in inner corner as a highlight)
2. Blend of Rapunzel Had Extensions and Dressed to Kill - Fyrinnae
3. Celery Shimmer - Dash Cosmetics
4. Beetle - Detrivore
5. Dressed to Kill - Fyrinnae
6. (a) Rapunzel Had Extensions - Fyrinnae
6. (b) Dressed to Kill - Fyrinnae
7. Titania - Fyrinnae

You can see the colors a bit better in these pictures:

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)

Kimchi: (Rosy terracotta filled with gold sparkle)



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

Darling Misfit: (Deep magenta-pink with a contrasting aqua highlight)



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)


Druid Werewolf: (Medium-light golden brown, multi-dimensional with varying shades of subtle shimmer)


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!
