I've got equality and a I love it. Although personally I wouldn't say it's particularly holographic - when I think of hologrphic I think of the Mac 3D glitter that ipukeglamour has been strutting her stuff in with her showoffs, and it's nothing like that. It is an absolutely beatiful shadow though, very silvery without being solid, and it does have a lot of varying sparkle to it - the swatch on the site is prett accurate, although I suspect exact effects will vary depending on your skin tone. This pic is of it at the end of the day and before I discovered my UDPP so not particularly fresh but it gives you a vague idea what it's like. I really like it as an everyday shadow.

That's wearing it by itself. It really isn't a good photo though, my eyes are all greasy and I forgot to take it on macro so it doesn't do the colour any justice - I'll have a fiddle later today and put it on properly and get a nicer shot _________________ Every electronic word I read fries my brain a little more....eventually you will all be able to understand me.... |

it's only a $0.50 increase, which is peanuts for what you get. And their CS IS good. Yes shipping isn't instantaneous, but then that's cos they make the colours up as they need them, not having it sitting around in bulk festering! They explained why they put the increase on the samples - because so many people are getting only samples and not full size colours, so to make it marginally costworthy the price has to go up a little. It's still amazingly good value for money IMO, the quality and amount of the product it excellent.
I'm compiling an album of fyrinnae makeup showoffs which is going up in the next few days probably, to give people an idea of the colours they can expect (and of course so I get some limelight!) _________________ Every electronic word I read fries my brain a little more....eventually you will all be able to understand me.... |

OK for anyone that's interested I've put a Fyrinnae showoff in the makeup section and I've gone into a little detail about how I found some of the colours:

of course they deserve to make a profit!
and I think their fullsize price and the amount you get for that is awesome!
but as a newbie I can't see myself buying samples for 2 $ when other companies sell samples for 1 $ or less!
I want to try out if they minerals work on me since every skin is different and some shades, but I am not gonna do that for 2 per piece _________________

hey those places are awsome!
fyrinne you get 1/4 tsp samples and it comes in a jar
taylormademinerals.com - you get 1/8 a tsp and it's in a baggie
pure luxe - you get 1/8 tsp in a jar
theshespace - only enough for 5 uses and it's in a baggie
those are the differences amoung them all
but DAMN! i definately have to try them all _________________ - vi

How long does shipping generally take? I ordered a ton of samples last week, and am just so anxious. I have no patience |

I think, when I bought from them, it took about 2-3 days (I think they shipped priority?). Their processing time right now is 12-18 days for eyeshadow, so it will take around 3 weeks from the date of purchase for you to get them. _________________ Hair Enigma - HE Myspace
