Fyrinnae Pressed Eyeshadows Reviews & Swatches (Part 2)
Mermaid Masquerade
Fyrinnae Mermaid Masquerade Arcane Magic Pressed Eyeshadow ($8.50 for 0.07 oz.) is a muted, darker blue with subtle, cool undertones and a frosted sheen. It had good pigmentation applied dry with a brush and full color coverage when applied over Pixie Epoxy. The texture was soft, smooth, and blendable with a touch of fallout during application. It wore nicely for eight hours on me before showing signs of fading.

Midnight Dreary
Fyrinnae Midnight Dreary Pressed Eyeshadow ($7.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a rich, vibrant blue with strong, cool undertones–almost to the point that it appeared purple–with a lightly sparkling, frosted finish. The eyeshadow had opaque color payoff in a single layer regardless of application method, though applying it over Pixie Epoxy gave it a smoother finish and made it appear brighter to m y eye. The consistency was soft and blendable with a bit of powderiness when I worked with it dry, so I had light fallout over bare skin. It lasted well for eight hours on me before fading visibly.

Nepenthe
Fyrinnae Nepenthe Pressed Eyeshadow ($7.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark purple with strong, warm undertones and a pearly sheen.

The color stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably on my lid.

Purride
Fyrinnae Purride Pressed Eyeshadow ($7.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a bright, medium blue with cool undertones and a metallic finish. It was intensely pigmented with a smooth, almost cream-like texture that was easy to work with as the color went on evenly and blended out well. I actually found that it was richer and more intense dry than it was over Pixie Epoxy. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before I saw slight fading.

The 2 I’d like to get down the road? Nepenthe and Mermaid Masquerade, hands down. I’m falling for Fyrinnae pressed eyeshadows, it would seem!
I love Fyrinnae! Just bought a bunch of the pressed shadows to try out, including some you just reviewed. Heads up for people who haven’t ordered from them before, shipping times are based on product availability and production time, but I always receive orders within a week.
These are all utterly gorgeous! My kind of colors.
Beautiful eye makeup and I love the angle of this photo!
