First Foray into Fyrinnae (with Swatches)
Fyrinnae is one of the OG indie makeup brands that I've heard about for years but hadn't tried until last month. I really should have hopped on this bandwagon sooner but there are a few reasons as to why it took me so long to place an order: (1) I thought it would be difficult/messy to work with loose shadows.
