Fyrinnae’s Enchanting Otters

A wonderfully rich, deep emerald green. There's no blackening, so this can't be used as a dramatic liner shade as easily as Aromaleigh's Drama Green (unless you apply this shade over a damp black gel liner.) It really works best for me either as an all-over shade, an outer-vee or inner-vee accent color. This doesn't have enough dark undertones to be easily or widely used as a crease color, and the green is very clear - so no smoking this one out.

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's enough shimmer-verging-on-sparkle in this color that you can get a good shimmer finish even applying the color dry. Applying it wet, or over something like BFTE's Liquid Lustre or Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy, amps up the shimmer quite a bit.
