How to Organize your MAC Neutral Palette

[guslover12345]

you look like adele here!!!

[MissMaisieMakeup]

It takes me six weeks to get one mac depotted eyeshadow

[RuntLaLaLa]

you are so beautiful!!!

and i love watching your videos !!! ^__^

[HeyyHuda]

gosh your such a sweetheart!!!!!!!! omg so humble, darlin i LOVE to see your stuffs

[irisxtina89]

youre my favorite makeup person on youtube! you seem very nice! thank you for your videos! helps me a lot

[Violet1974]

Your makeup is absolutely gorgeous here, and loving the vid! Thanks for sharing with us!

[vtwilight]

@smg0403 lol no, I think theta the price of JUST the palette, each eyeshadow is about 15 dls

[olivia1910]

I really love your make up, what are you wearing on your eyes ? (does anyone know?) Thank you for the video it helps. I'm glad I finally found a video with a good light to see how the the colors actually look like, this is the palette of my dreams..

[smg0403]

wait its only 12 dollars to fill the palette?

[Violet1974]

@smg0403 I wish, but no - she means the palette, itself. You have to buy the shadows separately.

[superevilattackninja]

I love her so much, she's the most real and sweetest makeup guru on youtube

[neggyforever]

@superevilattackninja, I couldn't agree more! Love Marlena.

[whiteish4]

@superevilattackninja You're right on that. She seems sweet and most of all real/honest.

[CallingMrJones]

I have light blue eyes, very fair skin and dark chestnut coloured hair. I only have enough money to by a four shadow pallate. I want a black, a highlight, crease and a lid colour. Which ones would you recommend for my colouring?

[Kealy12]

@CallingMrJones

Vanilla  - highlight

Satin Toupe- crease

all that glitters or naked lunch - lid Carbon - black

[fxckthelove]

you got that pallet for $12 ?? Where can I get it online that cheap? Everywhere I look its $15 for just ONE eyeshadow...

[mrsrosehathaway]

@fxckthelove The empty palette is $12, or was at least. It's $16 now. The individual shadow is $15, but if you buy it without a black pot it's $11.50, that way you can store it in an empty palette

[lovexxxbeauty]

Once you put an eye shadow into the palette, can you get it back out? x

[chakazulu87]

@lovexxxbeauty YES YOU CAN!! I don't know why the hell she said if she could do it over again ..... just pop the damn things out lady not difficult at all. lol

[catpnayz8086]

@chakazulu87 lol yeah true that's funny, but i guess it's because the labels were already sticked on the palette and she cannot move the shadows around

[pauuprincess]

@lovexxxbeauty yes



[ydelrod]

Hey do u still consider this to be ur neutral paletter from Mac? Im thinking of going and I want to get some of these colors in my palette....

[xVanityHeartx]

You are BEAUTIFUL.

same goes to that pallette ;)

[MsMariacharity]

great video!! I like to see other people's collection and I don't think its bragging. If you have a passion and you love it you want to talk about it! :) I don't think you should say you have those videos...just my personal opinion.

[BumbleFlyButter]

@makeupgeektv Hii :D I need a little help :/ I knw this has nothing to do with the vid.But my powder foundation is up,and i wanted to buy refills for it.But the palette pan size is 36 mm and the powder refill is 37 D: HELP!What should I do :( It's the only cheap powder refill there is xD.Your help would be very appreciated.Xoxo

[Findingemo126]

[lilmzmonkey69]

[GorgeousGoldx]

awww what u said at the beginning is exactly like me!! And i agree, i give up things for makeup, becuase it makes me happy 

[edlebedleb]

Really nice and helpful vid...... i also luv how ur not all ''look wat I hav!!'' haha

[sharonloveschloe]

[yasmeenfive]

Based on Marlena's recommnedations, i went out & got all these colours & i'm so glad i did cos they suit my asian indian skintone (NC42 i think) perfectly. I Love Em..Thank you Marlena, you'e the best !!!

[BIJMOZ]

this palette is so delicious, i could eat it

[myprettypinkstones]

Hi, love your videos!!!!! Can you please please tell me a palette with neutrals matte no shimmer for older women who cannot wear shimmery. Thanks!!

[btwirler7]

How do you know whether you're warm or cool toned?

[averunks]

Aww Marlena you're so sweet about not over-flaunting your collection. That was very mature and considerate of you. <3

[Grievousig101]

The palette is $14, and jf you take the imsert out you can fit 26 shadows

[MsGinger3000]

Wait... so you buy the palette for $12, EMPTY??? and you have to buy the shadows separate. Or does it include the shadows.

Please answer I'm confused!!

And also if you have to buy the shadows separate, do you buy refills or the eye shadow in the pot or ask them to depot it for you???

HELP??

[xBeautifullyTorn]

@MsGinger3000 the palette comes empty and then you fill it up with shadows that you depot or the refills you can buy.

[AwkwardChelsie]

@MsGinger3000 Hi, when going to the Mac Website, you can either buy this pallette without any colors for $14.00 and then fill the pallete with Mac eyeshadows you already have or buy the Pro Pallette Refill Pans($11.00 for each eyeshadow). BUT, if you don't have any Mac Eyeshadows yet, it would be best for you to buy a customized pallette($179.00) for the pallette and 15 eyeshadows. Once one of the colors run out, you just buy a Pro Pallette Refill to replace it yourself. Hope this helps! :)

[plazindrt]

You give up shoes for MAC eyeshadow? Maybe you need a 12-step program.

[BlondieTygur527]

@plazindrt some people would rather buy makeup then shoes cause they are a makeup kinda girl, not a shoe kinda girl and vice versa ... nothing wrong with that

[bellyrockin]

Having no MAC store or counter anywhere near me, I have to buy online, and the swatches on MAC's website are misleading to say the least. However, I was very pleasantly surprised by Woodwinked - it even looks so much better on than it looks in the pan. Definitely a must-have!

[AwkwardChelsie]

@bellyrockin I have the same problem with not having any Mac Store around me :( and Yes, the swatches on the website can be very misleading!

[chinikumhai]

hi, i like the mac palette, but can u buy this palete like this with the colours or do u have2 fill them in.

[emilyhannahlovesyou]

super helpful, thanks.

:) x

[pynkstarr]

@twilightrules97 no i love marlena because she doesnt do like most gurus..wont mention no names...when it comes to actually showing us stuff.

[sexxymoma07]

how much does it cost u to spend on each mac eyeshawdows? do u make ur own palette?

[natalieb4by]

@sexxymoma07 each mac eyeshadow in the pan form is 11 dollars :) the palette itself is 14 dollars. it hold 15 eyeshadows. so yes you buy whatever eyeshadows you want and the palette and fill it in :)

[prerajvarker]

Wow i really love love your videos..very informational and i have really learnt a lot from your videos! Thanks again for posting your videos.

[LusciousPout]

i think they all look the same.

[veshc81]

if you dont wanna use those stickers, when you depot your eyeshadows sit your containers (sticker side down) onto the element of a straightener, leave for about a minute, use a knife to lift the mac sticker and it comes straight off! that way you have the original mac eyeshadow sticker in ur palette!

[nickyred94]

Thank you so much!! You've helped me out alot!!

[twinkers760]

thank u ! i have dark brown hair and brown eyes and light skin. now i know what colors to fill my pallete !

[melien]

I love the way you do this video! You explain everything very clear and the information is usefull. Also considering the fact that not everybody can or wants to spend their money on gazillions of mac products... I love that, because most make-up guru's look only from their own perspective (wanting to buy make-up all the time, whatever the pricerank is). Great job!!!

[OfTheStars73]

Just have to say first off... you're such a lovely girl and I thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. I have been debating buying a palette but have heard that some people dislike the palettes after depotting. Could you share your opinions on any negatives you experience with the palettes (i.e. breakage etc?) Thanks!

[vspink714]

This was beyond helpful... i would love it if you would do this for your other MAC palettes as well and i promise i wont think your snobby! This is your profession you're allowed to splurge!

[mcnattmc]

you're so gorgeous! I love your hair and your eyes! and that lip color is soooo pretty! :)

great review!!! subsribedddddd!

[yasmeenfive]

thankyou for a wonderful review. You're great & unbiased!

pss.thankyou for advising colours suitable for darker skin tones as opposed to many reviewers & brands/adverts who only cater for light skins and forget that there are other ethnic origins in the world who apply makeup to so thank you once again & keep your tutorials/reviews coming :-)

[dpeni77]

I love how you explain how you have to give up things to buy what you realy love. You are gifted, and i have learnt so much from your vids. Thanks

[joannamakeup]

[pinkywinky2121]

[SanyaVracaric]

[marysinn]

[italiansexbot]

do u have the coastal scents palette?? r any of the colors comparable to mac colors?? i have the warm palette from CS.. could u think of the names so i can print them for my CS palettE???

[pynkstarr]

Thank you for not bragging

[SopheeJones]

@pynkstarr She never ever brags (:

[pynkstarr]

@SopheeJones omg I love that about her. So many gurus thats all they do.

[SopheeJones]

@pynkstarr I know, especially Blair and Elle!

[pynkstarr]

@SopheeJones o no....lol...but yea

[PensivePenumbra]

This is great! just starting out using Mac e/shadows & this is really helpful!

[mddermy]

this really really helps thank you so much!

[honey8587]

wow u really helped me then i was getting so confused i guess u helped me save money thanks !

[sanriobo]

You helped me a lot. Keep up the good work :)

[purplerose2468]

i have a pallet like this =)

i also have a blush pallet.

[lulu10101991]

I cant believe you made the choice between makeup and shoes!

Im still trying to do that! :P

[Almainsoul]

tu si pareces inteligente, de todas estas chicas superestrellas del maquillaje LOL, tu eres la mas sincera (honest). thanks for the review

[danielamitric]

I just 'found' you and I love you!! I especially love what you said in the beginning...that you don't necessarily like to be the "show off'' person. Lisasz09 is another guru on here...and as much as I like some of her videos, she is VERY show-off-ish. That is definitely a turn off

[ChinkyBlondee]

Is she really? I've never thought of her in that way, could you enlighten me? :)

[caitlinatat]

your skin is beautiful!

[Cupcake4me]

Really great video !!! LOVE PATINA :)

You're very pretty, love the make-up !

[LollipopPrincess07]

or the website!

[PinkBlushingBaby]

yeah, i got mine from the web site plus the blush palette =) can't wait for my palettes to arrive, this is so helpful as i want to start with neutral colors =) thank you, i was hoping you could do a video on neutral blushes =)

[nicolcacola]

You can also get them on the MAC website. 15 palette and the quad

[ChloesBeautySecrets]

This is why I like you -

1. You don't brag about your Makeup

2. You give honest reviews

3. You don't brag about where your going

Eg: Going to MAC to buy Makeup etc.

4. Your not greedy

Eg: You don't go out and buy EVERY single collection MAC have!

[lovethinkdream]

can you take out the pans again to rearrange them once you've placed them in the palette?

[Cupcake4me]

Yep, because of the magnets at the bottom of the shadows. I'm forever taking them out and rearranging them.

[shellslove]

you're too cute - great videos - very informative!

[pinkabuki]

whats a good shadow for your tearduct? would shroom work? I am looking for a little bit of sparkle.

[lsubabygirl728]

you helped me so much, im just starting out with MAC & decided i would make a neutral palette to begin with. thank you

[neonPINK80]

your voice if sooo soothing, i loveeee it:)))

[nathalielow]

I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying your reviews and instructions. So clear, and precise. I've watched too many where they just go wayy off topic. Thank you so much! I'm a big fan after just watching 3 of your videos! :)

[pinkabuki]

I've been building my mac shadow collection and I keep going back to this video, its really great.

The canadian mac site is slowly getting all the pan shadows in, should all shadows come in pan form? I was looking for vanilla or brule in pan form and its not listed there.

[clpdaddyo717]

Twinks is such my goto everyday neutral. Love wearing it all over the lid and yogurt to blend and honey luster draped over the crease when I'm in a rush :] amazing palate!

[GlitGlamSparkle]

Soooo informative.....thanx!!!!!

[Tuberr80]

your so sweet and really talented!

[laitae]

Great video, so informative! I'm waiting for my first order from MAC, I think I made the right color choices:)

[notblondetotheroots]

Could you please do a tutorial on the eye look you wore during this video? Also include the lipsick. The colors are BEAUTIFUL!

[pinkfuscia]

I love your videos, thanks for your makeup techniques, you are very pretty.

[theskydiverblue]

is it better to buy them on ebay????

[sugaarz]

can sum1 pls tell me how much is tis mac neutral palette.... tnx

[negritosmom]

The palette comes empty and you have to add the MAC eyeshadows you own. It´s not like the CS neutral palette. So this would cost like 12 usd + 14,50 usd x 15 eyeshadows + tax. Ha! Not cheap, but worth every penny.

[sugaarz]

oh wow tads exp!!!!.... mayb ill jus get de cs 28 palette.... anyway tanks alot =)

[ameritrini]

I love how humble you are! That makes for such a beautiful person! Oh and your face is BEAT HUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cookiecat555]

i luv u! ur so modist and cute!

[DCV19]

what is a good highlight eyeshadow that has shimmer in it?? I already own Vanilla but i really want something that has shimmer any suggestions??
