Fyrinnae Samhain 2012

I love love love coming home from work to find a package from Fyrinnae and I probably say that everytime I make a post about new goodies from them but I can't help it. I will add the swatches to my master Fyrinnae post ( swatches round up ) shortly.
The colors I ordered are Arcane Magic: Mystical Hedgehog, Arcane Magic Sultry Samhain, Witchy Woodland Creatures, Bonfire Spirits, Ethereal Eire and for my free sample I received Arcane Magic Mermaid Masquerade.
I didn't order Mermaid Masquerade purely because I thought it would be too close to Digital Faerie but it is definitely not anything like it. It is reminiscent of La Noche to me, (which is my most favorite blue ever on the planet) but with more nuances of course since it is an Arcane color.

 Here are closeups of the Arcane Magics in the jar. You can see some of the different colors here.

Orange you glad...

...that I didn't finish that dumb joke? lol 
I pulled out a few colors today that I haven't used in while and thought I'd go ahead and take some pictures since I had a free minute.
I was too lazy to change lenses so you'll just have to deal with the uber close-up of my face :)

Wellow FOTD

LOL my daughter used to call yellow "wellow" and even though she says it the right way now I still think it every time I see it.
And if you have trouble wearing yellow eyeshadows, give this one a try. It seems to be an almost cool yellow (I guess because of the tiny blue sparkles) and it makes a bit easier for cooler tones to wear.


Face:
ELF tinted moisturizer in beige
Fyrinnae Enchant
Coty airspun loose powder

Eyes:
ELF Mineral Eye Primer
Fyrinnae Bifrost, Ultrasuede
Wet N Wild black brown automatic liner pencil
Maybelline Illegal Lengths mascara

Lips:
Buxom glass in Lacey

Just DO It!

Hehe I was playing on the Nike site customizing running shoes...did you know they do that? It's so cool...or I'm just a dork (probably both, lol)
So, the point of me talking about shoes is that the color combo I came up with for the shoes perfectly coordinated with some of my new Fyrinnae eyeshadows. Completely unintentional but it made me want to do a super colorful eye look.
There ya go, inspiration is everywhere :)

I haven't ordered from Fyrinnae in such a long time, I thought I'd wander that way and get something sparkly. How happy was I to see new colors!!!
I haven't been in makeup world as of late and I had no idea they'd put new colors out.
So here's a few swatches of my new goodies. I hope to post a look with these soon!

Are You My Mummy?

I had a request for a mossy green look; which I swear I was totally gonna do but while I was searching for the right green, this one popped up and I just couldn't not do a look with it today. It's got a gorgeous pink color change which is why I paired it with a pink. The pink I chose has a green color change so they kinda match :)
Also I popped into Sally's today and saw a new FingerPaints display and grabbed up a super pretty flaky polish called Twisted so I added in a picture of that over black polish for funsies.

I Heart Purple!

I managed to get another FOTD done. I'm quite proud,lol. I had a hard time getting the sparkle in the deeper purple (Cuddlefish) to show up but it's definitely there, and so pretty. My shadow is starting to crease a bit, I'm running out of my primer so I have to use much less. You get the idea though :)
