Name: Marlena
Yes, I am a makeup artist by profession.
I used to be a music teacher for years and have my BS in Music Education with a minor in Speech/Drama. I also started working towards my Masters Degree in Music Education from Michigan State University. Along with being a makeup artist, I professionally play piano for weddings and formal events.

Next year I plan to attend Atelier in Paris for training in more advanced makeup techniques as well as get training in London for Indian Bridal makeup/henna design.

I am located in Michigan, but currently freelance throughout the US. My job is mainly teaching makeup skills to the everyday person looking to improve her/his self confidence and overall look!

Marlena's Credentials:
-1 Semester of Stage Makeup (4 year college)
-Taught at the Cosmix Makeup Academy as a guest teacher
-Guest artist for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (private event)
-Beauty Consultant in the southeast Michigan area

I love your work and I would like to send you a gift for all you hard work. I make earrings with Swarovski stones on them. If you can tell me your fav color and your p.o box I will send them to you. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Would it be possible for you to take us through the MAC eye shadow palates you have (greens, blues, browns etc.) so that if one walks into their local MAC store and would like to make a palate for themselves they know exactly what colours to pair etc.

I'm so happy I came across your youtube. I googled how to apply eye liner and this is what it gave me. I've only watched three of your videos so far and I'm really excited to see the rest. I hope you have a happy 4th of July.

Watched almost all of your videos, and I learned alot from it :-)

Just wondering if you know how to "revive" dried out gel liners/cream eyeshadows (like Benefit's)? I have tons of them but they're drying out now :-( boohoo
