I got this eyeshadow palette from a Chinese brand DRAMO and it has a striking orange eyeshadow. I think the color story of this palette is quite interesting and challenging but I really wanna try the orange one so I planned out a look using other palette as well.
First I used this Floating Life palette by Cheeryep. I love this palette so I like to use it more often haha.
I used the mauve shade and applied it on the crease area and under the eyes.
Next is this shade right here that looks light blue but is surprisingly dark when swatched. I blended it with the mauve eyeshadow and only applied it on the outer corner and on the upper bridge of the nose.
Then we take out the main palette :P I used the lightest shade of blue and applied it on the brow bone and on the lids but leaving the center untouched.
Then I took the orange eyeshadow and applied it on the center of the lids. I may have covered the light blue I applied previously at this point haha. I like that it's so vibrant even without having to put a white base. :D
Then I took this light teal and applied it on the inner corners of my eyes. Balancing the saturated and non saturated colors are the best way to do when you don't want the look to be "too much" if you know what I mean.
Then I used this Kaleidos Escape Pod palette and took this pink shimmer shade. I applied it on top of the orange eyeshadow and under the eyes. It kinda desaturated the orange but no worries, I can just use the orange again next time. :P
I applied the rest of the makeup like eyebrow cara, mascara, eyeliner, and blush. For the lips, I used this GIRLCULT lip glaze in the shade J79. It has a dark purple shade that also doesn't look too "weird" for normal makeup in my opinion. This is what I love in Chinese makeup, having a lot of unique shades that I don't see a lot from mainstream Western brands.
And this is the final look. I think it kinda gives a carnival vibe. :D
I like this palette (DRAMO) since they are really vibrant and easy to blend. A lot of eyeshadows' vibrancy can be achieved with a white base but this one doesn't need. Tho I did like 2 or 3 layers and really pack the brush with the color to achieve this level of opaqueness.
