Eternal Love 《三生三世十里桃花》Inspired Makeup Look ♡

The latest Chinese drama that I am obsessing over is called Eternal Love 《三生三世十里桃花》, also known as Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms. It is a 2017 Chinese fantasy TV series starring my favourite actress Yang Mi and the storyline is complicated. 

Although I don't fully understand the storyline yet, I have been loving the makeup and the costume from the drama and it lead me to recreate a look from one of its' main characters, Li Jing.

In the drama, Li Jing was the Ghost Tribe's second prince who eventually becomes the Ghost Lord, he is pretty much this bad guy with the sexy look.

When it comes to recreating makeup looks from Chinese dramas, I always prefer the bad guys even though I find it hard to act angry in photos, but I like the bad guys look more because Chinese dramas likes to exaggerate their makeup, especially the eye looks.

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eyeshadow Palette is one of the best palettes that I own, and in this inspired makeup look I firstly blend the shade White Chocolate (second, top left) from lash line to brow bone, then I used the shade Triple Fudge (top right) to create the wing and Semi-Sweet (middle row, third from left) to blend on the lid. I then slightly pat the shades Glided Ganache (top left) and Black Forest Truffle (fourth from left, top row) on the lid to create that extra shimmer look. Last step I blend the shade Marzipan (second, middle left) onto the crease to make the wings less harsh and I also added a little to my inner corner.

I love this palette and I find that the colours are easy to create various look from natural to dramatic. The only annoying thing I will mention about this palette is that it doesn't have the eyeshadow names printed on the palette, but that is because I bought this during their first launch. I think people may have complaint about this and since then Too Faced has added the names on the palette just like their other palettes.

Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur is my all-time favourite primer! I love that it instantly brightens up my face upon application, it hides pores, covers imperfection and it worn well with foundation as well as wearing on its own.

It is currently summer in New Zealand, the weather is unstable, it could be hot and cold, rain and sun all in one day. Sometimes we do get the blue sky and full sunny days too and in those days it's usually very humid and I could see my makeup melting off during the day. I do have foundations that are very long-wearing, but nowadays I choose to wear no foundations at all, only the Etude House Face Blur and other products like highlighter, blush and bronzer. I love that this primer made my skin looks and feel soft, it controls facial oil and it wears well for oily skin.

MAC Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation is a product that I have recently purchase and I am currently testing. So far I like that it is medium coverage and it covers uneven skin tones as well as smooth my skin. The only problem I have with this foundation is I find that it melts off my face within a couple hours of wear and I am not sure if it's not suitable for oily skin or because the weather is too hot and humid. I would have to try this in the winter to voice my opinion.

Benefit Stay Don't Stray Eyeshadow Primer is a pretty awesome product for those with an oily eyelid, I like that it makes my eyeshadow stay put throughout the day without creasing or transferring. The one that I have is a sample that I got years ago and as you may know, I don't wear eye makeup too often, but if I do, this is a must in my eye makeup routine.

Innisfree Auto Eyebrow Pencil is one of those with a slanted auto pencil on one end and a spoolie on another. I find that the slanted pencil is easy and time efficient to draw my brows every morning, but I dislike that the pencil breaks easily in the tube.

MAC Pro Longwear Waterproof Brow Set is not the best brow gel I have tried, but it is also not bad either. I like that the brow gel sets my brows in place throughout the day even if I sweat or if I walked in the rain, but I dislike that the product takes a while to fully set and sometimes my hair gets in the way and it smudges everywhere on my face.

YSL Touche Eclat Highlighter is one of my most re-purchased makeup products, I have raved about it many times on my blog and I love that it covers dark spots, hides under eye circle and instantly brightens up my complexion.

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara is probably the only mascara (apart from Maybelline) that actually wears well with my short and stubby Asian lashes. I like that it holds my curls and it doesn't irritate my eyes during wear, but I dislike that it smudges badly during the day.
