Tutorial: Lemon-Lime



This look just screams summer to me! The bright colors of lemons and limes are what inspired the eye makeup, as I'm a huge fan of yellow in general, and lime green is the perfect partner to it. Sometimes it can be difficult to make yellow eyeshadow look flattering, but I think this just works . Combine the eyes with a peach coloured lipstick and you're ready to hit the next summer party in style!

Watch my tutorial to see how I created this look, or watch it on Youtube here.

  2. Julia, I really appreciate you taking the time to write and place the subtitles on your vids. But, just giving my opinion: Why not just do a voice over? Reading subtitles and paying attention on what you are doing is too distracting. The great pleasure in seeing your vids is the vibe that you are talking directly to us, there is a connection. With the subtitles you lose that completely. Every time I see your vid is in german I skip it bc it's too much info every second (remember you have a lot of visual information on your vids. From the colours to blending to learning how you are doing stuff). Also, the feel that you are talking more than the subtitles show, and we, the non german speakers are left floating. Don't get me wrong, I'm a brasilian portuguese native speaker, I speak english and I'm learning dutch. I'm used to subtitles, HATE voice over, but only when it's not necessary. Some videos voice over are necessary bc there is so much to take in that reading subtitles distracts you from what is going on. You can have a connection with a voice over.

    So, please. Give it a try? If you hate it or don't get a good feedback then don't do it anymore.

  5. Beautiful! Wish it was summer here. I rock floral dresses all winter long, but I can't justify electric yellow, lol. Love it though.
