Top 3 Makeup tips for blue eyes!

Hi Lovelies,

For all my blue eyed beauties, here are my top 3 tips to having fabulous blue eyes!

1. Pick the right eyeshadow – For the office, stick with brown, rose, lavender and neutral shades. For a special date, try metallics in silver and gold, turquoise and icy pink shades.

2. Experiement for the evening – For the evening, try a smokey eye look using grey, dark blue or purple shades.

A dark blue shade will bring out the natural blue tones in blue eyes, try dark blue shades combined with black shades for that wow factor.

3. Tone down your lips – Emphasize your gorgeous blue eyes, whether they are pale blue or deep sapphire, by toning down your lip color. Pick a matte lipstick in a peachy brown shade. For your cheeks, add a light sweep of blush in a very natural hue.

I hope this helps lovelies, try out these colour combinations for a glamouros look.

Stay sweet xoxo

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette Review

Hi Lovelies,

It is that time again, another product review.

Today I will be reviewing the widely loved – Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. I have heard so much about this palette and there was a lot of buzz surrounding it’s release.

Well, my verdict… I love it. The are a few main points as to why this palette is worthy of all it’s hype.

The colour range that you get in Naked 2 palette is amazing. Of course it goes to say as with any Urban Decay eyeshadows, they are very pigmented. The eyeshadows go on well, they have a great texture and can be easily applied. They blend very easily and because of this you can really achieve a flawless look. The colour range is very complementary, there are many shades that can be used as a highlight under your brow bone and in the inner corners of your eyes. There are also plenty of shades that can be used on the entire lid and a lot of them can be mixed to create a more subtle or dramatic look. And lastly the all important shades that create the smokey eye, from browns to a matte black, they are all there.

When I use this palette, I am able to create many different looks. You can easily go from day to night and create a look for any special occasions.

The packaging is also very good with this palette, it is sturdy and the colours stay put. It also comes with a dual brush in case you are low on brushes in your collection.

My overall rating is 8.5/10 – I really enjoy using this palette, the colours, texture and pigments are amazing. The eyeshadows also have great longevity and last all day and night.

I love using Tease on the crease of my eyelid to blend out a smokey eye, Foxy as a highlight colour under my brow bone and YDK for smoking out your bottom lash line.

Have a look at my Bold lip using the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette on my makeup channel on youtube, makeupbydulcelissa.

I hope this inspires you to create more bold and stunning looks. It is always fun to try new and exciting products, there is no right and wrong way of doing things, just what ever works for you.

Have a great day and remember stay sweet xoxo

Sneak peak tutorial Bold Lip makeup look

Hello to all my fellow makeup and fashion addicts!

I am so excited to share with you all my upcoming tutorial on my makeup channel. The next video is sure to inspire you with your own take on a bold lip makeup look.

I was inspired by a recent purchase of bold lipstick colours. I used an amazing product NARS velvet matte lip pencil in Damned. I paired the look with beautiful brown and grey tones, using my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette and my Too Faced Naked Eye Palette. I paired the look with flawless skin, peach blush and a dramatic winged eyeliner. All the products used will be listed in the video.

I was also influenced to create this look by a beautiful H&M top that my mum recently bought for me from the states. I will be posting the photos of the complete outfit soon.

Having a bold lip is something that is very new to me. I must admit that most of my lip colours were pink, nude and very pale tones. So I recently went out and bought some dramatic lip colours,

This look is bold and gorgeous at the same time. I know that this will inspire you all to try new bold lip colours.

I hope you all enjoy it! Keep an eye out for the next video and please subscribe.

Have a great day and remember stay sweet! xoxo
