Not tried Brazen or Silk Naturals, would very much like to try Brazen soon. I feel silly having 'fav' companies because I don't buy much, but Fyrinnae, Evil Shades, Darling Girl, Hi-Fi and High Voltage are my faves. Loved this post!
I haven't ordered much from Indie companies because I have no patience and love the instant gratification from buying in person. Out of all of these i only have Fyrinnae, but I'm definitely looking to expand my Indie makeup collection. My newest love is Persephone Minerals! Plus the owner is a sweetheart.
Funny, although Fyrinnae, as usual, is singled our for longer wait time, I have never had to wait more than 10 days to get an order from them - yet Hi-Fi orders always took an entire month for me to get, which is why I no longer buy from them. But it seems you can't see the word Fyrinnae without also seeing the supposed delays, based on the processing time listed on their website ... when actually, they continually underpromise and overdeliver - often by weeks! - on processing time. It's starting to frustrate me, I don't think this "slow" rep is deserved at all :/
I'd like to try Fyrinnae...maybe after I grow some patience. But my favorite indie company is Shiro Cosmetics. Soo much bang for your buck, the turnaround is very good, and the service is amazing.
@eRiN- based on my own personal opinion, I have had to wait longer from processing to shipping for Fyrinnae- BUT I understand the reasons behind this and also know they are creating a unique product with each order. I in NO way am trying to contribute to a "slow" reputation for Fyrinnae at all.
I've been turned off of Fyrinnae personally. They always seem to be closed when I go to their store. Also, I don't like how they push their Pixie Epoxy as what really works with their shadows. I'm sure they're a great company, but there are a whole bunch more out there that I prefer.
My biggest problem with Fyrinnae hasn't been the processing times, nor the shipping times. (In fact, my orders were processed and shipped in less time than they stated on the front of their web site, every single time - even during this most recent post-holiday-staff-turnover period.) My biggest problem with Fyrinnae has been and remains the opened-again-closed-again storefront. This has been going on for the past four years, that I've been aware; and even longer than that, that other customers have been aware. And the site doesn't link to the blog, where they/he has been posting updates and status notices recently. So for anyone who's a potential new customer, the effect is "Fyrinnae is a secret club. No you's allowed!!" Or you can't buy from them unless you know a gal who knows a gal who can tell you when they'll be open next. I seriously doubt that they try to make it difficult for people to buy from them. But...they're not making it as easy and predictable as they could, either; and for any retail business, especially one that's solely web-based, that's a serious speedbump. It makes me not want to review their stuff, or use their shadows in looks that I'd post on my blog. I feel about Fyrinnae the same way others feel about products from companies that are now out of business, or long-discontinued collections: if people can't get the items, it seems disingenuous to show their use without recommending alternatives that people can actually easily buy. (And with some Fyrinnae shadows, especially many of the AMs, there just aren't alternatives.)
Fyrinnae does indeed have wonderful products; does indeed provide fantastic value; and their customer service is solid. But the unintentional air of exclusivity around buying from them is extremely off-putting.
I loooove indie make up companies, especially Fyrinnae. This week I've recieved my first order from Darling Girl Cosmetics and I love it, too... I've ordered there just because of your blog :D And I'm still waiting for my order from Hi-Fi Cosmetics, which I also discovered on your blog :D

I think this is AWESOME, Zombies are really really cool, I think your sight is really cool and I am a guy who dresses as zombie men and zombie women...
I love Darling Girl, Evil Shades and Fyrinnae but Silk Naturals is my favourite brand. I rarely spend more than $30-40 at a single company as I like trying new brands but I spent ten times more on Silk Naturals (they also have awesome skincare though, so only a part of the sum went to makeup).
I want to try Brazen and Hi-Fi after my no-buy ends. I also like Sassy Minerals and Adorned With Grace and Lumiere.
I LOVE Silk Naturals!!! I want to keep it low on orders only to end up ordering every 2-weeks because I can't sleep for omitting one or two things I wanted and had to go back to order them and some more! Their lippies and blushes are absolutely gorgeous! And the eyeshadows get my sisters begging on their knees to me! LOL!
