Beautiful Pigments: Fyrinnae "Polar Bear"

I don't feature my Fyrinnae pigments often enough in this blog, considering it was a Fyrinnae pigment that sparked the idea of me doing the Beautiful Pigments series!

I think that "Polar Bear" is one of Fyrinnae's top selling eye shadows. I only have a sample of it but it's one of those I expect I'll buy a full sized jar of.

Samples from Fyrinnae are $1.75 each, a full sized jar is $5.25. The sample will last for plenty of applications. I've already used it at least 10 times!


It is described on the site as being "white-gold, shimmery and soft". That's certainly true for the dry application, but it takes on an incredible metallic sheen when applied with a damp brush. I prefer to use this damp as I love the metallic look created by this shadow.

I like to pair this with a deep purple, green or brown in the crease. You don't need to do much else with this as it's such a stand out shade.

And the best part is that Fyrinnae will donate a portion of the sales of this (and the other Endangered colours) to the World Wildlife Fund.
