  • hahahah the end!

  • that awkward moment when the top 2 comments are the same =/

  • I love your hair. Thanks for the video.

  • The NC15 matches me perfectly (I'm yellow based) But it breaks me out! What color of the Revlon Foundation would you say is the same color as the Mac NC15?

  • @llebrett NC15 matches me too, so I would try Ivory, which is what I wear. It's pretty neutral (not really pink or yellow)

  • I Agree ... Mac studio fix gave me breakouts. I have the new Mac matchmaster foundation which is great!!

  • I love revlon colorstay! I am a makeup artist and started out using MUFE HD and it didn't cover well and was too moist. I used it on 2 clients with oily skin and acne and they were not happy! I was wishing I had my colorstay! Needless to say, my kit Is now stocked with cs and I am not going back! I use L'Oreal primer or neutrogena acne hydrating under it plus SPF moisturizer. Perfection! I love you marlena! I get so many ideas from you and you are the only video Chica that isn't annoying or bor

  • i just bought the Revlon Colorstay and I'm excited to try it out! ^_^

  • Youu Look Wayy Prettier Than Adele!!!

  • If nc15 is too yellow for you I would suggest trying nw15 or if that's still to yellow or too pink, I have a trick, you can buy nw18 which is a pro colour and if you want lighter coverage mix it with white face and body or if you want fuller coverage mix it with illamasqua rich liquid in 105 or estee lauder double wear in its lightest colour, but only use alittle of your blending foundation you don't want to look too white.

  • Revlon colorstay broke me out .. Its taking me forever to get my skin back the way i had it, and i never get acne this sucks.

  • you look like the same comment ^

  • can you do a tutorial on this eyeshadow look!! Gorgeous:)

  • So I click this video to check out the foundations. I see the top comments and they both say "You look like Adele!". My reaction? "I bet this chick looks NOTHING like Adele....Holy crap it's Adele o.O"

  • OMG this is the first video i ever watched of yours and i have been following you ever since! your bloddy amaizing! GO MARLENA!

  • Umm.. i was looking for a Mac vs PC video..

  • Your eye makeup looks delicious to eat nom nom nom

  • amazing eye shadow!!! thank I'll try the reckon because yes my Mac is to yellowish,

  • what colour was ur MAC studio fix fluid ?

  • how do i match foundation to my skin tone

  • @Paulavang209 If you are selecting a foundation at a makeup counter or store, start off by picking the shade that you think is your match. From there, choose one shade lighter and one shade darker, swatching all colours on a fresh, clean face just above the jaw, blending downwards onto the jawline. The colour that seems to "disappear" the most will be your shade. Don't swatch on your hand because the skin is very different from the face, especially in colour.

  • @MisColour What you can also do is if you're picking a drugstore foundation, pick out three shades again and hold them up to your jaw/lower cheek. It's not ideal, but it's the next best thing.

  • Your eyeshadow is pretty

  • i absolutely loooove the ending! XD

  • I'm new to. Makeup lol but what does foundation exactly do ?

  • @ZebraLove67 it covers up any blemishes that you have and evens out your skin tone. :)

  • i don't like neither. the revlon always just sat on top of my skin, i used the one for combination/oily skin but it was funny because it left my face feeling slightly greasy...then with mac, after applying it, i would immediately see these tiny, little bumps raise from my skin, it was gross and way too heavy.

  • i use NYC foundation it is VERY cheap and VERY good! i use it all the time love it cuz it gives me good coverage and i dont have to spend alot of money

  • The best foundations that I have used were from maybelline and Chanel. Both water based and don't cause for the skin to get too oily it's just right. I just bought the Mac select foundation... I hope I don't break out because I really like it(:

  • Don't*

  • For some reason MAC foundation looks wayy to cakey to me I font like it and I've also heard a lot of people break out with the studio fix.

  • I can't choose from the oily/combination formula or the normal/dry formula, my skin can be a bit oily at some times but mostly normal. It's winter now so i might get the normal/dry one. Please help!

  • @isabelleme926 i would go with oily/combination because if your skin does happen to get a bit oily for some reason, then it probably wouldn't show as much with your foundation on because you have to remember it's LIQUID. liquid has a very dewy look (if you don't set it) and can make your skin look oily sometimes (especially if you use off brand ones or super cheap and crappy brands.

  • @macarmen69 Girl it must be made for us Latinas because I feel the same way! LOL What you can do if you get a drugstore foundation that doesn't exactly match you is to mix a little of the MAC one with the cheaper foundation and it instantly gives it the yellow undertone you need. I do this and it works perfectly plus makes it lasts longer throughout the day and I don't need to buy the MAC foundation as often.

  • I use the Revlon Colorstay everyday, and it's great! But I want to switch to another foundation like Bare Minerals. I heard it's good, anybody else can vouch for this? Because maybe using Revlon everyday can't be too good for my skin..

  • I personally don't care for Revlon Color Stay- It doesn't blend well with my skin and I can't get rid of my makeup line. I am hoping to try MAC but it is so expensive.

  • I recently bought Mac studio fix fluid and I LOVE IT! it works better for me than the revlon colorstay, I own both but revlon doesn't have the yellow that I need in a foundation where Mac does. I have Mac in nc37 and revlon colorstay in warm golden. Ps. I'm Latina lol

  • @huante88i

    You check with the color on the inside of your rist

  • i live in malaysia and colorstay only have like 5 skintone here. there's one that goes with skintone but they dont have it in here! why cant they have all the shades! i am so mad!

  • Thanx for that info will try the revlon, BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW A GREAT WAY TO FIGURE OUT THE PERFECT COLOR?

  • u r so pretty.

  • i really like mac.

    but i do not like their foundation.

    its to yellowyy/orangey.

    idk. it just doesn't work.

    it looks way to un-natural.

  • Your eye makeup reminds me of a peach(;

  • I just bought the Revlon photo ready is it similar to the colorstay?

  • Disliked mac liquid foundation the first time I swatched it :( never liked it, no matter what method I used: stippling brush, foundation brush, fingers, sponge applicator, it was just bad. Colorstay FTW

  • @Bibimbapski I just bought a MAC studio fix and Its the best ever you just need the right shade

  • you look like adele! :)

  • PLEASE do a tutorial on your eyshadow in this video

  • Your eyes are very beautiful.

  • never a fan of MAC.

  • I love the revlon. It matches my skin perfect BUT in photos it makes me look paler... Any advice?

  • @nowshakealittle could it be your setting powder if you use any?

  • The Colorstay Foundation here in Malaysia sells for about $18. :(

  • OMG! YOU LOOK JUST LIKE ADELE!

  • I Love revlon foundation

    It's cheap but it worth

  • You need to learn how to do your eyebrows.

  • If you are NC42 what color is that for Colorstay?

  • @CaLiiRiiCaN88 We're the same skin color! Either Natural Tan or Rich Tan. Try Temptalia's Foundation matrix.

  • @karmaintheflesh OMG! thank you! my biggest worry is pink undertones YUCK!

  • :( i tried the revlon one and it doesnt work for me at all, dries way too fast and becomes impossible to blend, and i end up looking really cakey and it feels really heavy. but im glad i watched this video cause i was about to buy that mac foundation and the lightest color wouldnt have been light enought :(

  • Revlon works really well for me

  • Heyy was just wondering, whats the best way of applying the revlon color stay?

  • For me, Revlon works! I've tried MAC, then the result is many acne come out and my face look darker than it could be :(

  • I've used both although MAC is expensive and think think it does have good coverage. However Color Stay is less expensive and just as thin. I used Color Stay for three days in Feb 2011 & broke out horribly bad. We are now in Oct 2011 & although my skin 80% I urge anyone who want to try it to make sure you wash the makeup off completely. I have a feeling I may have let a bit on one night because I was so tired. MAC washes off way more easily than Color Stay it's like wearing face. paint.

  • Please tell me if the mac pump will fit on my revlon colorstay, because I want a pump with it. Thanks

  • what is the lightest shade for revlon? is it porcelin ivory?

  • what shade of the revlon do you have??

  • ur eyeshadow is amazing.

  • You look like Adele!

  • What's the equivalent of NW25 in Colorstay? Thanks

  • I need a yellow undertone foundation :(

  • wow! I lurve youre eye make up! :)

  • I tried that revlon foundation because I heard such great things about it and it turns out..it broke me out like crazzzy! I was so upset:/

  • I love your curtains!

  • You are so pretty! I see the Adele similarity but yeah, you're way prettier. I had that MAC foundation and gave it to my mom but she doesn't like it either. Thanks for the Revlon tip!

  • U remind me of adele )

  • i LOVE THE MAC ONE BETTER I HATED THE COLOR STAY JUST MY OPINION YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR :)

  • i just bought the that revlon foundation and ilove it :) THANKS

  • Gosh you are beautiful and tht eye makeup is to die for!! I do agree, the MAC foundation is wonderful but I can't get the right color match...humph

  • adele? is that you ? :O

    

  • @cindieeboo No but she has a tutorial on one of her looks :P

  • Hey! you look so pretty!!! Preciosa!!! greetings desde Perú y gracias por el consejo, that means thanks for the advice!

  • hola, wuapa, que tono de revlon usas? besos

  • Omg! I thought I was the only one who could not find the right color with mac! I'm definitely trying colorstay! Does anyone have any suggestions on a good primer?

  • I F#*KING KNEW IT! FInally somebody tells it like it is on mac foundation. Some little queen at the mac counter tried to color-match me with some dark, yellow foundation, & I wasn't having it. So I just walked away. Most people have more than one color on their face, and to me, mac doesn't make the cut.

  • @schildno5 Same thing happened with me, they didn't match my complexion correctly. I wasnt aware of it until the next day in sun because I purchased it at night-LOL...

    I like some MAC colors, but I think it is over-rated to some degree. Plus, it rubs off easily on everything, but not my colorstay. It stays were it lays!

  • @henimsay

    I've been using revlon and lovin it, but recently a mac store opened close to me and I haddd to get the studio fix fluid. While I like it, it does rub off a lot as you say, whereas the revlon just stays perfect. Verdict, I'll be sticking wih revlon, and MAC really is overrated IMHO.

  • @schildno5 dude i totally agree! but I wish you didn't use the term "queen" :/ not trollin or anything

  • @LillyWasHere71

    #1 I'm not a dude, far from it. #2 You know what I wish? I wish you wouldn't try to make me out as being homophobic by telling me how to speak by being the thought police. I was AT the NY capitol SCREAMING for seven hours non- stop for marriage equality. I'm part of the LGBTI Community (We coined the names "queen" and "Miss Thing" ALOT & I ain't thinking about stopping now!) And finally, It's nice to meet you too. ^_^

  • @schildno5 lol sorry i call people dude didn't mean to offend you, but also, i doubt you're a homophobe lol I'm in the LGBTI community too-- I just don't remember using the word "queen" (miss ting, however, I do remember)

  • @LillyWasHere71 Well guess what? You don't remember because you're young, and we've been around a long time. In the black trans & gay culture we do, and it's not personal. It's JUST how we speak. As a matter of fact, if it weren't for the trans community, there would not be LGB rights because we initiated Stonewall. We paved the way for you. We say Queen, and Miss thing, and other words which might not be right... But when it's all over, the unity is what makes us stronger.

  • @schildno5 ok, I really didn't mean to offend you, honest! I was watching this with one of my bestest friends in the whole world who is openly gay. he literally laughed out loud at your comment but said he doesn't like being called a "queen" in a negative way...he wants to be a drag queen when he graduates in two years, and says being called a "drag queen" is totally different from just being called a "queen". however, i totally agree on the unity part, and that should be all that matters.

  • @LillyWasHere71 You haven't offended me. Where I come from, queen is not offensive. Trans & gay people use it to one another. If he's gonna be in drags which is different than being trans, he'll have to have a thicker skin, because this world can be shady.

  • Comment removed

  • @schildno5 They also try to swatch foundation on you when you already have some on!! What is the point of matching if you are not going to do it on bare skin?

  • for revlon

    is it noticable that you put foundation on when u look in the mirror?

  • YU AR SO PRETTY<3 :)

  • YOU WERE A BIG HELP THANK YOU SO MUCH!

  • revlon is $39 in australia :(

  • @teressa18 wow in the usa it is 9 :(

  • @teressa18 i know! everything is sooo much more expensive here in Australia! When ever I watch youtube vids from USA and they're like " it's pretty expensive, i paid X amount for it" Im like WTF it's like 3 times the price in Aust!!!!

  • I'm on my boyfriends YouTube account but for me esteem Lauder is wonderful my skin breakss out with all the cheaper stuff even though I use it at times but it has helped my face wonders ...its 34.00 but lasts awhile..... if u have a boyfriend that's a great monthly gift at least that'd what I tell mine LOL ..God bless

  • U should do angry birds makeup look

  • OMG you really look like Adele here! <33

  • Se puede conseguir en Argentina el color ciruela para las pestañas ?

  • ohhh my, i love your eyeshadow.

  • Awesome I like how nice look your eyes, it's a great colour you are using.

  • i love my revlon colorstay love it

  • my mom works for revlon!!!!!! :) its nice being then i dont have to waste all my  money on makeup!!!!!!

  • Your eye shadow is beautiful! Tutorial?

  • .... im even whiter than you,

    this is just sad

  • going to get the revlon colorstay! i know i will love it!:)

  • every time i use my mac foundation i break out ! so mad about that im gonna try the revelon.....or if you know of any high end foundation thats good for oily skin plz let me know ???? :)

  • Wow, I've been throwing my money away.

  • The Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation Is What I Do!! I Use It In 220 Natural Beige!!! :) I Love It!!! :)))

  • your eyeshadow it´s amazing

  • @tylervandekamp thats rude and unnescary

  • lol guys, in england revlon makeup is just as cheap ar rimmel :P

  • bi iffense but its way too yellow for you :P

  • :O I LOVE your eyeshadow!! do you have a tutorial for this look?

  • $10 on sale? Wow... in Australia it's sold for US$40. Sometimes on sale you can get it for 37....

  • All I looked at was ur eyeshadow it's so pretty!

  • Totally agree on the MAC shades, I think I have the same one and it is also too yellow for me. Why can't they make a better range? I generally use the TruMatch foundation in their lightest shade instead, which works well too.

  • your eyeshadow is gorgeous ! it kinda distracted me

  • yer, im whiter that white 2

  • @riley101ify no it doesn't have a pump.

  • lmao whiter than white! you're my twin than but I use the new maybelline ones the "fit me" line they have so many shades in liquid and powders etc i usually break out to certain foundations cuz my skin is so sensitive

  • does the colorstay hava pump? cus that might b a deal breaker 4 me

  • I love the REVLON color stay foundation; been using it for months now. The only liquid foundation I have found that can compare to it is the VICHY dermablend foundation - which is over $40 a bottle.

  • i really do belive this just proves that you do not need to go out and buy high end makeup you can find products that cost ten times less and are just as good or sometimes even better. It just comes down to the fact that people much rather have brand names. I could care less about that and use only drugstore products. It works great for me :)

  • thanks for interesting review

  • i love this foundation :) never use any other foundation other than revlon..its a god sent

  • gonna try it!!

  • I like Revlon products, and am interested in trying this. The only drawback is that at drugstores, there are usually no testers. How do you recommend getting the right shade w/o buying multiple bottles & "trial & error"?

  • "I'm white as white can be." Then meet me xD

  • you loook like adele! and i personally like the revlon one better, because mac makes me break out + it's expensive!

  • Ohmygosh you're beautiful (:

  • Ohmygosh you're beautiful (:

  • You look like Adele here! she's beautiful- as are you :)

  • Thanks for the review! I know this is old, but I just purchased this one today. I am super pale as well and was happy to find a light colour.

  • @EurynomuSlut combination skin is when you Tzone (nose,chin and forehead) is oily and the rest of your face ( cheeks and sides of face) is dry :)

  • I don't understand what is 'combination skin'?

  • @EurynomuSlut  WHEN YOU HAVE dry and oily skin

  • @JESSICA77042 thanks.

  • love your eye makeup & you dont look pale here

  • Your eye shadow is so perfect, OMG, I love it.

  • I love your makeup.

  • I love REVLON's foundation too! <3

  • I love the look right before the camera goes off haha you're so cute.

  • I personally -3 NARS sheer glow

  • OMG revLON is tHE besT makE uP foundatioN !! I've been using iT for yearS and alwayS get wonderfuL complimentS on MY facE !! THANKS REVLON<3

  • sorry marlena, but you're really not very pale. in fact, I'd consider you tan. I consider myself pale... im easily three shades lighter than nw15 from mac. EASILY

  • Thanks for this video! Both m.a.c. and Revlon are animal friendly brands, so love them! Btw, your eyes look fab with this tropical bird make-up! Is there a tutorial as well?

  • i think drug store product are better, i use to use Mac but it made my skin look dryyy and i tried using all kinds of shimmer to give me sum kind of glow & etc, but sadly it didnt work so since then i stuck wit revlon colorstay or loreal true match which gives my pale skin more of a glow!

  • Revlon's palest is way to dark for me believe or not! ):

  • I hate revlon foundation. It was the only thing I changed in my makeup routine and I broke out horribly. And no im not allergic to any of the ingredients. I had friends who have used it as well, some from out of the country or out of state and they did not like it either.

    Most of my friends did not even use Mac to begin with as I do.

    If revlon works for you in glad to hear so! :) but I'll just stick to my Mac makeup. It's worth the money and a bottle if my foundation lasts ne about 3 months wh

  • You've convinced me! Getting the revlon foundation

  • I love MAC beauty products but I need to try less expensive drug store brands because I am trying to economize! thanks for this comparison review.

  • grrr annoying how Australia drug store brand makeup costs as much as MAC in America :(

  • thx so much...u just solve my problm....

  • may i ask, before i buy it, are you endorsed/promoted by revlon? i havent seen a disclaimer or anything...btw you say you are whiter than white.. youre like, brown compared to me haha... stay pretty

  • @TheAmandakev no one on youtube is endorsed by revlon, they just have genuinely good cosmetics, and she mentions that she BOUGHT it at walgreens...

  • i have the revlon,its great-i love the way it is thick so not t much is needed:D!

  • i really love your eyeshadow. its perfect!

  • i love your eyes!! so purrttyyy

  • really great, love the end when something dropped off camera and her eyes go wide..so cute

  • I know this video i old, but does anyone know what shade she has on the Revlon foundation?

  • @LeannaDesiree warm golden

  • do you think the photofinish or color stay is better?! I have been using the photophinish and i feel like makes my skin look and feel dry as well as kindda cakes into the wrinkles in my forehead as well as eyes.

  • @channelgirl1000 I like colorstay better but to me it sounds like you are applying it too heavy. try a damp sponge your just your fingers.

  • I LOVE your eyeshadow in this video!

  • your eyes are beautifulll

  • normally here in australia, the mac one is $49 and the revlon is $38, so which one do you suggest for me? im reeeeally pale, so what do you suggest? i prefere more coverage, but my skins senstitive

  • you sound really breathless!

  • You actually can test most of the foundations in drugstores. Just open up the bottle and I heard your knuckles are the same natural color as your face. So you can always just rub a dot of the foundation onto the back of your hand to find the right color.

    Hope that helps!
