Last week, I received the most wonderful package!  Mr. F of Fyrinnae was gracious enough to gift me with their brand spankin’ new Halloween collection.  These are SERIOUSLY some gorgeous colors.  In my opinion, if you don’t pick up anything else, purchase Book of the Dead (the gold eyeshadow), and Sweetest Poison (the red lip lustre).  Book of the Dead is the gold that I’ve always wanted.  It stays perfectly gold on my NC42 skin.  It doesn’t turn yellow, champagne, or look burned.  It’s pure liquid gold, and it seems like it stays true on any skin tone.  The way it looks on Grey is exactly the way it looks on me.  Sweetest Coffin looks like a classic red with red sparkles in the tube.  When I wear it though, it is the most perfect wearable red that leans slightly coral/orange.  It’s absolutely beautiful, and compliments my skin tone well.

Here’s a St. Patty’s Day FOTD for you!  And if you’re wondering, yes I really am Irish.  My grandmother was an immigrant :)  I really wish the camera had caught the iridescence of this look.    It was completely lost in translation =(

Oh, and for those of you wondering, my son is doing really well after his surgery!  The doctor said that it would be at least 6 weeks until we knew for sure if the surgery took.  However, we can REALLY see a difference already!   The very first time  we went to lunch, everything was on the floor!  The menus, the silverware, the napkins, everything!  Lol but he was happy and I enjoyed it.  He’s so much more observant and responsive now.  I pray to God that walking follows very shortly.

P.S. PLEASE let me tell you how this damned eyebrow threader jacked up my left eyebrow!!!  I’m SO pissed off.  I finally grew them back out into the shape that they need to be.  I go in to get a cleanup, and end up missing 1/4″ off my left eyebrow!!  I didn’t notice it for a few days because I wasn’t wearing makeup.  As soon as I went back to wearing makeup, I noticed that my eyebrows are very even.  I’m so sad about this.  Now I have to grow them out.  AGAIN.  UUUGGGGHHHHHH.
