I had fun with this today, and I’m happy with how it turned out. I wanted to see how easy it would be to use Fyrinnae with other brands — and I still have a couple of colors to try out. For my initial order, I ordered the exotic colors I knew I could wear that are different from other lines. But consequently, I don’t have any subtle lid shades yet (they are coming in my second order.)

Base: Nude Frost
Lids up through crease: AL Imperial Opulent Lustre, gorgeous light purple
Outer corners, blended up and out and lower line: F Archmage Arcane Magic
Mascara top: Diorshow Not sure I’m crazy about it.
Mascara lower: Stiletto
Tightlined upper NYX Extreme Black pen — I wanted to know if I could tightline with it. I should have done it before mascara and maybe before the shadows. I felt I took some of the shadow off, but you couldn’t tell that I had.

Here’s what Fyrinnae says about this color:

Deep green with a lighter shimmer that changes from pale green to silver to pink, depending on the light. It’s much more green and less dark grey than it looks here.

It looks green in the jar, but as I applied it, it looked deep purple. You can see from the pictures, it is quite green, though. Arcane Magic colors have two looks to them, whether applied wet or dry, and look different in different lights. Pardon the slight drift on my nose. I took care of it when I saw it in the picture.

Primer Revlon Vital Radiance Cool
Foundation: Mary Kay Tinted Moisturizer Ivoire 1
Color under powder: Nars Riviera stick
Powder my sparkly mix, topped with BE mineral veil like bronzer
Blush: Meow Masterpiece Water Lilies love this color!
Lips: MAC Sweet Thing, Love Child, Flashmode using Beauté technique — see my LOTD post.

What do you think?
