Fyrinnae Alpenglow Idolize Look
Fyrinnae Alpenglow Idolize Look
I wanted to share this fun Fyrinnae Alpenglow Idolize Look with you. I only tightlined the upper waterline with black, so no thick liner or false lashes to obscure the duochrome eyeshadow. I know many people feel a makeup look is only ‘complete’ with winged liner and big false lashes, but there are just as many lovely people out there who don’t like big lashes or wings, so I opted for the latter today.

I tried to capture all the duochrome shifting with these colors. You can see the lime green shift of Alpenglow pretty easily on top of its pink base. I actually love the purple with teal shift it created by mixing Alphenglow with Idolize.
For the two face shots above I’m wearing Ofra BRB Gloss. It’s a very pale lavender. I thought it would be pretty with the softer colors. I’m not used to such a soft lip color on me.
Duochrome Eyeshadows by Fyrinnae
- Alpenglow is a vivid soft cool pink with bright lime green shimmer that shifts to hot pink at an angle.
- Idolize is a dark violet that turns magenta, copper, gold and lime.
Idolize is the perfect color to use to add depth to Alpenglow without resorting to a black shade.
Matte Eyeshadows by Nabla
- Circle is a cool-toned muted mauve matte.
- Lotus is a cool-toned lavender matte.
I wanted a soft washed out mauve / burgundy hue for the crease so I mixed these two shades.
Nyx High Glass Complexion
I went a different way with my base products for this look because I wanted to try something new. I used the Nyx High Glass Primer in Moonbeam, which is basically a beige champagne brightening primer, then I followed that up with Nyx Born to Glow Foundation in Pale. I really should have diluted the Nyx Born to Glow Foundation with the primer to get more of that glass skin effect. After applying the foundation, I applied Nyx High Glass Powder in Moon Glow all over. Then I sculpted the bottoms of my cheeks with Nyx Sweet Cheeks Shimmer Blush in So Taupe. I used Melt Iluminacion as a highlighting blush.
Fyrinnae Alpenglow Idolize Look Thoughts
Melt has made three lip pencils that are the PERFECT for me. Nudist (pinky nude), Ambrosia (blue-toned red), and Latex (deep teal). The combo of Melt Nudist pencil with Colour Pop Bikini Bottom Lipstick makes for a gorgeous nude on me, even if I’m not as into nude lip colors as some people. I love how these two look together on me.
As you know, Nyx is one of my favorite drugstore makeup brands, so when I saw their High Glass launch I wanted to try a few things. I’ve used the primer a few times before today but hadn’t tried it with the Illuminating powder yet. I definitely feel like this combination warmed up my complexion in a flattering way.
If you don’t have Nyx Sweet Cheeks Blush in So Taupe and you’re fair complected, what are you waiting for? It’s such a gorgeous, easy to use, flattering sculpting blush for fair skin.
