Hey lovelies,
Today I have I a pretty purple Fyrinnae, heavily laced with gold shimmer. This is Meerkat, a shade that has featured quite often in Temptalia's top picks, so of course I had to check it out!
All of the Fyrinnae eyeshadows I purchased are minis; the mini eyeshadows are packaged in a clear screwtop jar with a label on the bottom. The regular eyeshadow minis contain 1/3 teaspoon of product.
Fyrinnae's description:
Vibrant pink-purple with gold shimmer and sparkle highlight.
Swatched dry (left) and over Epoxy (right), photographed in sunlight. Like Enchanting Otters, Meerkat is quite sheer when applied dry and you lose a lot of the gold shimmer. Meerkat needs Pixie Epoxy (or a similar product) to truly shine. I had a little fall out during application, but I didn't notice much more over the course of the day when I wore it.
I paired Meerkat with a peachy pink shimmer from TheBalm's Nude 'Tude palette, keeping Meerkat to the outer third of the lid so that it complimented rather than dominated the look. It was nice & easy to blend out.
A FOTD with Meerkat - details to come later today :)
- Pretty sparkle :D
- Easy to blend out
- Great price - the eyeshadow minis are $2.25USD (containing 1/3 teaspoon - I purchased all minis), full size jars are $6.25USD.
What I didn't like:
- Very sheer when applied dry - this one needs a sticky base for opaque colour, and for the gold shimmer to adhere.
- Some fall out even with a sticky base.
Where to buy:
