    Man, you need to do a tutorial on how to use the spin pins! I want to make my hair look like that. :)
    Have a great time at DragonCon.

      Will do! The short explanation is that I twist my hair into a bun, like normal, then holding the end of the hair, I start to twist the pin into the bun, making sure it hooks around the end that I’m holding. I twist through the center and voila!

        Yes please! I just bought some, and I feel so dumb that I can’t make them work. I just cannot figure it out. T_T Maybe my hair isn’t long enough.

          If your hair is any thicker than mine, you would probably need 2 pins per bun. You put in one pin like this | and the other pin — like that. So they sort of cross over to help hold your hair secure. I’ll try to do a video for you all once I get back.

    I’ve been reading your blog for a while but don’t think I’ve said hello! I love your FOTDs/EOTDs! I discovered a couple new brands from your posts and enjoy your swatches. Love your creativity with your eyes! Have a good time at Dragon Con!

    You always look pretty in blue, Phyrra. :-}

    I need to get some of those spin pins! I’m getting married in a couple of weeks and I have absolutely no idea what I’m going to do with my hair! :P

      Yay I love blue :) Do you want your hair up or down? Curly or straight? I wore my hair down and straight. Spin pins would make for a perfect updo :)

    You look adorable! Gotta check out the spin pins – when I attempt to get my hair into buns for falls it’s a disaster.

    Hi there! I’m pretty new to your blog, and to makeup in general. So far I love your looks, reviews, swatches, etc.! (And you are very pretty!) Based in part on your reviews, I’ve ordered a bunch of samples from Fyrinnae. I also definitely need to pick up some of those spin pins! (And nail wheels! I forgot those existed!)

    I have a question, though I realize you’ve probably already left for DragonCon (have fun!), so I’ll have to wait until you get back for an answer. ;) (If any other readers want to reply, too, that would be great!)

    Eye shadow primer: I’ve seen you use Too Faced Shadow Insurance, Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion, and Concrete Minerals Primer. How do you decide which one to use with a given look? Do you recommend one over the other for someone new to makeup?

    • Phyrra September 7, 2010 at 5:41 pm #

      I really like Sobe Botanicals Primer, Detrivore Primer, Concrete Minerals Primer, and TFSI. I reach for TFSI more than anything else, though. UDPP used to crease on me, but UDPP Eden is ok. I LOVE the new tube that UDPP is finally coming out in.

      Anyway, it depends on your price range, if you want to support Indie, etc.

        Thanks! I ended up ordering a tube of TFSI. :)

    Ooh, lucky girl! I wanna go to DragonCon so badly, but time and a half is pretty tempting, too. I hope you post a ton of pics when you get back! (P.S. I wish I could make my hair stay in little buns like that. At this point, I can say I’ve been quite literally trying for decades to no avail T_T.)

      Sure, it’s Jerome Russel Punky color in Turquoise for the front, and Jerome Russel Punky Color in Midnite Blue for the rest of it.

    Aw, you always look so adorable with buns in your hair! I love slyph too. I had to get two full jars.
    I love the spin pins! I wish they came out a long time ago! I don’t know how I went without using them for buns.
