Fyrinnae’s Exquisites: Breathtaking

One of the least sheer of the five initial-release Exquisites, this is similar to MAC's Helium pigment, but with a slightly richer base color. Dry application is a bit…mmm…different than older Fyrinnae colors. It tends to not want to apply evenly, whether patting, stippling, or (and I tried this out of desperation) sweeping. Wet application went better, with smoother and more even coverage, which is the same thing that usually happens with MAC's Crushed Metallic pigments. I liked some of the shades in the Exquisites, including this cooler soft pink; but I haven't quite mastered easy application, so I don't know that I'll be buying too many more until I figure out how to best apply them.
