Beauty from the Earth’s Syracuse

Named for BFTE's original home town (before the sale), by the time I became a BFTE customer, Syracuse was only ever available in the Spirit Sets. This isn't my favorite orange, but it's far from my least favorite. The dry application can end up looking a bit lighter, and I found that it didn't layer all that well. Using this over either a cream shadow base or an eyeshadow primer results in a more even coverage and better color payoff.

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeshadow in the pot; top right, the eyeshadow mixed with water and applied to bare skin; bottom left, the eyeshadow applied dry over primer.

There is the faintest suggestion of pink tones to the shimmer finish; but it's extremely faint and just pulls the color further away from orange-yellow, rather than turning the shadow into an overt pinked-orange like Chaos or Jax.
