Fyrinnae Eyeshadow Look:

While putting this on, I once more forgot I was holding an open, loose shadow jar and spilled half of Jade Ghost over my bathroom. I was so annoyed, it's one of my favorites and this is the second time I did it. I'm going to have to get sifter jars *sigh* Anyway, since I did that, I thought I'd take pics of my look, since it was apparently worth half a jar of e/s.

For some reason my camera took much better pics through my glasses O.o so there's a little bit of reflection on some of them. And, as always, Fyrinnae shadows are super hard to photograph, these are bluer and more vibrant than shown here.

Jade Ghost in inner half or so, 1.22 Gigawatts on outer half of lid and as liner, Sleepy Hollow in crease and mixed down into Gigawatts.



Smashbox FAQ box, QVC TSV, first shipment swatches

QVC (the home shopping channel thing) has a few makeup brands that release special sets for them. In this case, Smashbox released a box that was supposed to answer frequently asked questions they ask. It had an auto-delivery option, which means it will be delivered three times, with a few color changes in the products. I got it because of the waterproof eyeshadow palette, which looked great in each of the three.



NARS Summer 2011 Swatches

I love this summer line, there are a few things that are clear misses, but most of them are huge hits. If you only had to get one thing, it should probably be Dogon, but Mayflower is also amazing, as is the artist palette with Orgasm, Albatross, and Laguna (the Orgasm is that more pink, more pigmented version that appears in some palettes).

From left to right: Dogon duo, New Order, Carthage, Wonder, Bolero.
