[jeepsareforgirlz]

BareMinerals is the ONLY makeup I use! My mom and sister introduced it to me at a young age. I love all their colors, brushes, and products! ♥

[Nenakhmer]

Love the song !! I need to try this.. I have never do pink, that one thing.

[Zoeidance122]

it looks really preety on you

[myglitterypage]

Will the glitter fall to the apples of your cheeks?

Or will it stick to the eyeshadow or something...?

[myglitterypage]

Oh my lord I love this video and I love this look so much!

[pinaybanthin]

is it hard to use bare essential eye shadows?

I have a couple but i only use them as liquid eye liner. hmmmmmm

love the look! (: take care.

[bluberri757]

you're beautiful!! love your vids! :)

[asilahvista]

Porcelain white skin is gorgeous! You look so fresh and clean, like snow. Pale skin and white skin are two different things, though.. lol

[EmpressLestat]

You are so pretty! Your nose is PERFECT! You rock sister :O)

[Bergkristall]

yeah, you are a total tomboy :-))))

[bigpurplesmile]

I'm going to NYC soon & as I can't get NYX make up here where is the best place to get some??? Help!! Thanks!

[QueenLeilani]

So you're coming here to NY, you're going to have a lot of fun. Sephora has everything. I don't know if there is a Sephora where you are at...but Sephora carrys all brands of makeup from Mac to NARS to Two Face. It's like 100 brands of makeup within one store. They also sell high brand name perfumes and cologne. I love that store. It's like walking into a candy shop as a kid. lol Hope that helps.

[QueenLeilani]

Bigpurplesmile >> also, if u plan on shopping woohoo...u can hit up spots like Macy's (west 34th street and Broadway the Hearld of Square), Manhattan mall, Madison ave has nice places to shop at

[Vnlise]

i also believe great make-up comes with a great lighting :)

[PokeJen]

aww... i like pale skin. You dont need a tan!

[mtcowgirl68]

I would also be interested in seeing a video for people with pale skin a natural look that would compliment our skin type. thanks for all your beauty help

[dumbruntte91]

can you do a video for people with really pale skin, but a more natural look? i love all the make up you do, but i think it might be too harsh for my skin color.

[realhannahelauria]

where did you get your curtains,

i love it.

i want is as a wallpaper actually

[latonyarealitytv]

Does nyx have a sharpener for those pencil sticks? My needs a good sharpening. French fries is my fav.

[monjack07]

Me too, i wear it all the time!

[18kesha18]

aww your so pretty!! i love the look!!

[clpdaddyo717]

This is such an amazing look! It's like, a sophisticated, sexy and modern version of the 80s, girly "valley girl" look! Is there any look that you can't pull off? You're brilliant, really. I'm so trying this look out, like, now.

PS. There is nothing wrong with a little liner on the waterline :)

[catiabond]

Love ur videos... :)

I do have a new MAC shadow: "THREESOME- Mineralize" & don't know how 2 use it.

Can u make a video on this one? :)

Plzzzzzzzzzz

[Guamjfk]

Beautiful! An excellent look for the Holidays. I think these colors will look good on just about anyone!

[suheda1987]

[Msloverlybaudelaire]

OMG! I am sooo glad you made a tutorial for this look! When i first saw this look on sephora's site, i fell in love with it!

[honeybearjen]

Is there any chance you could do a video on what makeup you bring when traveling if you get time? Thanks

[icicle0109]

oh my gosh- i've seen all your vids and i think this look is one of the MOST beautiful on you :D so pretty!!! <3

thank you!

[diabla90210]

Hey i love the video this look is beautiful, I work for Bare Essentuals and i dont know if you already know this but.. If you add water to any of the eyeshadows its makes them more intense and creamy and they also stay longer.

[bebemousse1]

how old is marlena? i want to know her age?

[MakeupGeekTV]

A woman never tells... ;)

[lbbenton]

no she sure don't..... I'm 43 but I'm not famous on youtube so nobody will ever know who I am.... hee hee, if I had to guess I would say about 26, 27 though... Hey I just hit your store again, great stuff, I bough some mac pigments and I;m so excited thanks to you I can finally have some mac makeup because you made them affortable to us.... thanks you Marlene you are a true gem......

[LadyIncognito]

Hey girl. There's a flea market here where I live that sells very pretty fashion rings. There's one that looks almost like the one you have on, and it's only $1! What a deal. Anyway, I love your videos. I've been poorer since watching though, because I buy make up like crazy now! lol

[MakeupGeekTV]

I need to find this flea market! :)

[lbbenton]

I got my rings I have the one you are wearing in this video, unfortunately my 15 year old daughter took my green one that looks like a crown but I'm on my way to visit your store and get some more..... :) Have you used your lipstick pens yet, I use mine at work, I'm a paralegal and people at work think I'm crazy... :) they are right though.....

[annalxmay]

hallo Marlena what I like most of you is that your tutorials are so clear also for people who are not english mother tongue!! there are many tutorials in english but yours are the best!! Hallo from Italy!!

[MakeupGeekTV]

Nope- it's the mac cream color base in luna :)

[DearMeNoUserName]

Amazing look :).

[lulu221094]

That looks gorgeous!! and i love your ring! :D

[meshellc416]

[babybunnie26]

[beechbum06]

ABSOLUTLY GORGEOUS!!

Random Question:

I've been having MAJORRRR probs with my new camera, it only uploads its vids on my computer with the .mov file and so im trying to find a free download for converting it into a wmv file. Any Help out there?? (:

[MakeupGeekTV]

I think mine does that too, but when I put into Windows Movie Maker and save it, it converts to wmv...

[EppyBaBe]

ok... from a mua to another.... :D those cheeck are perfect on you :D great job darling :D I always get sooo excited on I see u have a video up weeeeeeeeee :D thanks

[chick7489]

if no one brougth up about the blink.. i wouldn't even realize it at all! haha. but anyways, you're gorgeous and you do look real gorgeous! thanks for the purple and pink make up tip. i love the song you use!! love it!! :)

[elviagarza]

hey, I'm a big fan of your beautiful work, and I was wondering if you could do more looks using the 88 ultra shimmer palette, thanks!!

[sajimzu]

Lo haces parecer tan facil, Y YO NO PUEEEDOOOOOO

[Crazegal11]

gorgeous!!

[xNaturalGlamourx]

i love this song!!!!!!

[xhearts4jonasx]

i LOVE this song!!!!

[cinderellasCurse]

when you blink you keep your eyes closed for a longer time than others..do you do that on purpose so we can see the final look better or is that just how you blink? lol sorry weird question i know, but i wonder everytime i see a video from you.

[lovemakeup3]

i agree ! she does !

well everyone is different ! right ?!?!

love the look !!

soo gorgeous !!

xx

[MakeupGeekTV]

It's a bad habit- I'm not even sure why I do that! ;) *blink blink*

[cinderellasCurse]

not only are you beautiful but you've also got an awesome sense of humor. love your personality marlena!

[bellezaguatemalteca]

What are you guys talking about? The long blink Marlena does? lol. I've seen several of her vids and noticed that she does it :D I do that as well, ONLY when I get nervous and I am speaking. It's almost as if I am trying to think my next word, before I say it, so I don't say something that doesn't make sense XD

[MakeupGeekTV]

hehehe :)

[BarrysDaughter]

love this look :0)

xxxJoolsxxx

[thatwasthen08]

I was wondering if you had tried Smashbox PhotoFinish. Its a face primer and its really expensive but I wanted the opinion of somebody that isn't paid to sell things. =)

[MakeupGeekTV]

It works pretty good- I like mine, but you can save money by using Monistat Chafing Gel instead- same ingredients but MUCH cheaper :)

[PurpleFairy30]

Marlena,

I totally LOVE this look!!! Purple my favorite color ever... Keep up the GREAT work :-)

[laquelegustacantar]

THis is a great look. You are so beautiful. Keep up the good work. =)

5*****

[c00ki312]

be-autifuuulll!

[barrymbabe]

it was more bluy and purple i dont no if u meant the lips to be pink

[MakeupGeekTV]

yep :)

[sweetswidy]

there is no pink shadow but theres pink lipstick

[nygrl119]

where is the pink shadow? I just saw all purples...but pretty

[TinekeMelkebeek]

wow it's amazing!

[sumamjurczak]

I learn something new each time I watch your tutorials and I look forward to your look of the weeks!!! I discovered you later than most on this site but I have since then made up for time and watched EVERY tuturial you have out here! LOVE YOU! Thanks again for being such a treat and such talent.!!! You really are making a positive contribution by being out here!

[annazraf]

You always make me smile!! Love the colour-combo's!

[funnyrandomness00]

Can you do a video on the best ways to get makeup off without being so rough? because everytime i want to do another look my eye is all red from scrubbing so hard.

[PurpleFairy30]

Use baby oil first to remove most of the eye make up. then wash as usual. With the baby oil taking off most of the color the rest will be easy and less irriatating. :-) That is what I do and I wear vibrant colors alot.

[fubina7]

well I don't like all that "darkness"on the crease..

[mushie04]

you look striking, and i love the white blouse on you it makes your eye shadows pop even more..Im as light as you and sometimes i feel like a ghost with certain colors but others tell me different, so no worries Hum you look pretty as always.

[SephoraMAC]

So Beautiful!!!

[penguinlovee1]

you really look like hilary duff in the opening credits! you're so pretty and you do an amazing job!

[dorqy]

the glitter is so AMAAAAAAAAZING!!!!!!! loves it<3

[strtforward1]

This is a stunning look for you. I've watched most of your vids and tonight I actually spoke to the empty room, "WOW!"

You are red carpet ready!

[DuckyKissz]

im a black eye liner girl too lol

[lilofleurs972]

Hi Marlena, Thanks for this vid. You are so pretty. I love this look and your eyes without the black 24/7 on the waterlines. I think a white or cream color pencil would work great on those waterlines, like the "yeyo" color from 24/7 U Decay eye pencil. Love and kisses from the Caribeans.

[fortheloveofRedHeads]

Love this look!

Thank you so much for these vids, you are really helpful...and you're so funny!

[MillionStarss]

that looks really pretty,

you are soo gorgeous n im actually in love with your teeth haha

[makeitworkx]

Could you do a hair tutorial for your hair in this look?

[germangirl4017]

haha im a tomboy but i lovvveeee make up!! most people don't know that either, lol i hide it well! you look gorgeous :)

[emmyemmy1994]

pretty!

[mishymishy86]

love it...hair looks awsome too ! :)

[MissDeeCanada]

I love these looks, I need a 5 minute look cause I never have time to look put together for work (5 minute face, not including foundation)

[Seedcovers]

Great job, very pretty!

[cc084304]

I love that you did this look i tried to recreate it with urban decay purples and soul sista from bare minerals

[banjobama]

It must be my monitor but your eyeshadow looks blue, not purple!

[funnelcloud9]

thanks will try wish me luck .... <---- happy to feel young beautiful me

[LostWondr]

Great look.

[Puppysofia]

This is an amazing look!!

[marinebl544]

you can buy brush shampoo or brush cleaner at sephora..i think mac sells that stuff too...i heard you can also wash them with baby shampoo...still trying that out...

[equus418]

Coincidentally, I did a similar look this morning before work. I used UDPP, MAC pig Lovely Lily on whole lid up to brow bone, MAC pig Violet in crease, MAC Illegal Cargo on main lid, and Indigo gel liner from Coastal Scents! Love your look too!

[southernsweetheart10]

This is really pretty. I like it.

[funnelcloud9]

just got my first set of bruhes how do you clean the... I'm using just water but i was wondering is there anything else i can do to meke them last ... they are pricy and need to make sure that they last ....

[iheartjonessodaa]

i second that question

[mecmex]

I use the Mac Brush Cleanser, but you should try the Aussie Opposites Attract Protect+Soften Shampoo, this is an amazing option! this works great to clean the brushes and it costs just $3 for a big bottle. I Truly recommend it!

[jackiejaci]

Where can you get that MAC "reflects in purple duo" that you mentioned.

Ive never heard of it. And im not totally sure if thats the name you said, but that what it sounded like to me.....

[MakeupGeekTV]

You can either find it at a MAC Pro store or you can pick up sample sizes in the store on my website :)

[9999BlackRosez]

Love the look, will try it this week.

[fluffho]

fantastic

[Kitty101Kat]

i llllloved it so much i guess ill try it and see how it goes

[perfecttenn]

Very pretty! I saw this look on your site and was so inspired by it. I'll definitely be attempting it.

[X1HONEY]

This look is so beautiful! You look like an angel in your photos! =)

[lunadeapril]

i just adore you!! your sooo cute

[lululucyluxi]

so pretty

[SuzieGreenberg22]

What kind of lighting set-up do you have going on there? It looks like it makes it easy to see. I need better lighting....

[bambiiwebx3]

[MicheleBohbot]

[bellaswan53]

really pretty! I love bare escentuals and this is the first good tutorial I've found for it...

and I love your ring! :)

[VeryAroma]

I think, you look softer without black on the wterline. Your eyes are still standing out and look gorgeous, but the overall impression is less 'harsh'. I like it a lot like this!! Pretty!

[ZEPOLAZTIRAM]

I couldnt get to your website. I think its down. You may want to check on that.

[webananas]

really like :D

[taibug]

OOh! I really like this one!

[MelanieChinn]

[SandraLondon63]

Lovely look. Ideal for New Years eve!

I did not see the link that you referred to (about the dark glitter called Sanctuary?) Where did you get this from?

[MakeupGeekTV]

Whoops! It's from BE- I got from a friend, but I'm pretty sure you can still get from BE's website or Sephora :)

[Afghani408]

Hey marlena,

Thankx for the video.You look so beautiful. I love all of you're tuts.

[cosmeticqueeen]

wow- i didn't realize the BE eye colors had that much pigmentation to them!?? will try some for sure now. thank you, beautiful look.

[anayjulio42]

No don't tan you don't need it..I love your skin tone I wish I was like that plus with your skin tone all the colors look good on you specially smokey looks look very nice and you are very pretty..my favorite guru!

[MYsweetupanDown]

P.S. PALE is SO beautiful! Don't tan!!!

[MYsweetupanDown]

How can you compensate if you have asymmetrical eyes? I know "they're sisters, not twins" but I'd rather my eye makeup not look totally different on each eye, you know?

[MistressFabiola]

Very very beautiful.

Your make up is amazing good.

Congrats, you are a great artist.

[Dallas197653]

[chtitmog]
