Yeah, that's about right :D I'm a basic lidwash kinda gal but patting a little Fire over Brimstone is irresistible. Excellent pic that Egerandi highlighted on the EOTD thread.

Brimstone isn't pigmented enough to use as a liner. It's a good lightweight smokey eye lid wash or crease-defining depth colour. Personally, I plaster Fire over everything, but then I'm a mineral magpie :lol: If you want to be a bit classier than me, and that's not hard frankly, do Brimstone on the lid and slightly into the crease and then Fire over the crease and slightly above towards the browbone and that should blend beautifully. Dab a little Fire around the inner eye corner by the tearduct and you've got yourself a smouldering look.
