Some Fyrinnae Swatches

A couple of weeks ago, I placed a loooong overdue Fyrinnae order. I'd been seeing lots of awesome looks and realized I had NONE of the Arcane Magic colors. That needed to change, so I placed a small order. I got three Arcane Magics(plus a free sample), and two others. These definitely did not disappoint.
All of these are swatched over Pixie Epoxy, except for New Moon's Light (because it's a matte, not compatible with PE) is over NYX Milk.

I also split them up so you can see them a little better. These are ridiculously complex colors.
This color is BRIIIIIIIGHT! Woah! I wasn't expecting it to be this bright, it looks much softer in the photo on the website. I was also expecting it to be more purple, but to me this is a vivid, royal blue. I'm not disappointed, though, because this color is freaking awesome and I don't have any others like it. It's mostly matte, but it has a little bit of a satin finish. Just a bit.

I love this one. It's a super shimmery mint green. I love mint green eyeshadow. This one reminds me a lot of "Princess Jupiter" from Persephone, only a lot sparkly-er...if that's a word.

This is what I would call a sexy eyeshadow. The color is perfect for that smokey, sultry, look and it looks AMAZING paired with black. This color is very complex, and a must have in my opinion! It looks orange on the website, but it's not at all. It's hard to describe what color it is, but to me it looks like soft reddish burgundy with gold sparks. You kind of just have to see it in person.

I love this one! It's one of the prettiest purples I've seen and it's loaded with sparkles. It looks amazing over Pixie Epoxy.

This color is not from the Arcane Magic collection (along with New Moon's Light) so it's not really that complex, but it's definitely beautiful. I love forest greens like this, not too dark or too light, and the finish on this one is perfect.

Okay, this is the color I got as a free sample. This is one of those colors that makes you say "WTF" in a good way. There are so many different colors going on here I don't even know which is the main one. At first it looks like a dark brown, but then there's a very strong green/teal sparkle, then pinks and magenta. In short, this color is "What is this I don't even." I absolutely LOVE it. I cannot wait to wear this, it's one of the most gorgeous and complex colors I've ever seen.

Well, there you have it. Did I cause you to want to go place another Fyrinnae order? Fortunately, if you're like me, I don't think you can ever have enough Fyrinnae. At just $2.00 for mini jars(which is all you really need), you really can't go wrong. I'm looking at the rest of the Arcane shades, especially Dragonmagic, Evocation, Faerie Glamour, and Sorceress. I'm hoping I can eventually have all of them, they're really impressive.

Let me know what you think of these! Have a lovely week!

  4. The Sequined Master is AMAZING (well they all are but)...it's rare that you see that kind of purple/turquoise color come out so vibrant. Usually it's very sheer.

  7. I want a mini size of all the Arcane Magics soon. Do I need them? Probably not. Do I want them? HELL YEAH! :P So it'll be a while, I have to wait til I'm not borrowing money from my boyfriend just to buy lunch (I miscalculated a few things this week and ended up with $0 in my bank account... 3 days before payday. Not my best moment).
