Me encantan tus videos!
Hermoso este tutorial!
I love it =)
I am so glad you did this tutorial!! Stargazer Lilies are my favorite flower so I was absolutely ecstatic when I saw it!
Whoops- sorry! I didn’t show me using the Pen and Pink- I used it to blend above the darker pink and under the brow before I put the cream base on
Hey Marlena,
I’m new to your site.
I absolutely love everything here!
It is so helpful!
Anyways, I realllyy like this look!
Your eyes are amazing!!
=]
Hey I love this look! You are so creative, I would never have thought of using a flower!
Hey Marlena -
You should try the company’s ELF & Profound..
Elf is very cheapppp and you can purchase there stuff on their website..
Profound has VERY good matte eyeshadows and I found them at a beauty supply (not like Sallys) but like individually owned supplies. .
Great prices..
Thanks
hey marlena, just wanna say that the new video cam is great! The quality is super and everything is really clear
wow, did you get a new camera? maybe it’s just because i’m watching in HD, but dang it looks like you’re in my livingroom! LOL. Very clear.
What kind of cam. r u using? the pics and video is so clear and nice (:
Marlena,
tried to find something useful on youtube while you were gone!! but no one is as good as you are, anyway glad your back and please dont do it again. Love the look dots are unique!!
I was lost while you were gone
i love this look! and i fell in love with the ring! i bought it ;]
Stupendo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! brava!

Hi Marlena,
Very beautiful like always, I love it,
I have just a little question : I’ve been trying desesperately to buy the NYX Jumbo Pencil in “Milk
but it is always out of stock, do you think you will have this eye pencil again ?
Sorry, if there are some mistake when i a m writing because i am french,
Thank you so much for your answer and have a nice day
that’s fantastic absoluty I love the color lilies
So pretty – don’t think I could wear this look, but it is just lovely on you!
this look is sweet with out being to young (love it). also- the camra is great, you dont look orange, and the curtain set up is beautiful. thank you for sharing you time with us. you might not know it, but you make alot of people happy with you selflessness- bless you!!
this look so beautiful on you girl!! you really know your stuff i’m going to try this on my mom lol
Love, Bianca
Hi Cristina
We’ve been out of stock on the NYX Milk pencil as it keeps getting back ordered, so NYX hasn’t shipped it to us
We keep placing more orders for it, so hopefully this next shipment will have it- we should receive that order the end of this week or early next week…
Ohh, I can’t wait to try this. I’m definitely going to wear this look when my husband comes home for R&R. So cute. I love the work you do! Amazing!
I love this look
It’s similar to cherry blossoms, which I also love. I’ve always had a hard time thinking of cute ways to use pink and white shadows without it looking to sugary, but you make it look so pretty and artistic and sweet without being too much.
BTW I recreated the ashanti look you did this past weekend for an event I had to go to and got sooo many compliments on it
You’re the best Marlena
So I did it and LOVE it. I didn’t have any of the stuff you used, so I imporived, but it looks SO good! My yellow was a problem, so it’s a little different, but it works. LOVE IT! <3
Love how the eyeliner looks, and the colors are goreous !!!
Love how the eyeliner looks, and the colors are gorgeous !!!
This look is soooo great I love it! Thanks you are such a doll
Hey Marlena!
Thanks for this tutorial! The purple posies one was my favorite but this one might take its place.
I just thought I would let you know (if you don’t already) that Nyx is having a 10 year anniversary sale where everything is 50% off. It runs through May 15th. Just thought I would help spread the news for those of us on a tight budget (including me).
Hi Marlena! I’m from Spain and I love your site, your work, your new studio and all your looks.
I would like to know how much would it cost to send me things from the States to Spain, as there are tons of stuff I can’t find here.
Seriously, keep on doing this, it’s absolutely fab!
Thank you for helping us so much!
Hi Vivi
Shipping internationally, it usually only a few dollar, but our checkout can give you an accurate quote based on the weight of the items you choose — thanks!
Hey Marlena,
i just love all your tutorials. its beautiful! the colors are super pretty. =) love the site!!!!!!!!!!!!
Marlenaaaa, we missed you! Great video…very inspiring. I hope to see more from you.
impresionante
hey marlena. about MUG tv. part 1. I want to see how you dress, thats my request. Because my make up is really pretty thanks to you but sometimes I think I over do it on top and not coordinate it with the rest of my body and what I’m wearing lol. I see that you wear nice clothes I just could never tell if it’s a dress or a blouse or what. So thats my request. I want to see you standing up and modeling for the camera and see your pretty clothes. thanks
Beautiful!! Stargazer lilies are my fav flower and I *love* how you translated them to a gorgeous look! Will definitely need to practice this one.
looove it
love it
Hi Marlena! I have been watching several of your tutorials and this is the first time I actually dared myself to send you a quick message. Your very fair skin but like me, im a medium tone so some colors feel like they dont look as well as they do on you. Any suggestions on medium skin tone? I love eyeshadows but dont know if I can pull the colors off sometimes. Also I saw the web site to brush111.com for Mac brush sets very cheap too. Do you know if this web can be trusted at all and let us know if its worth the try. I hope to hear from you soon and thanks again for all the advise. Take Care!
wow ……
I hope to do Review on Revlon Custom Creations foudation soon ..
thx..:)
Hi Marlena:
Glad to see you’re back. You’ve got the best tutorials anywhere! Here’s my request… could you please do a tutorial on how you use your brushes… ie. how to pick up product with different brushes, do you use the tip of the brush or flat part and why, how do you hold your brush, how much product are you picking up, do you dab in the product or swipe the brush across the product etc. I know you do show us on most of your videos but I’d like a more indepth video on just that alone. Thanks!
Hi Marlena I am a follower of yours live in Spanish specifically Pricipado of Asturias (north-Cantabrica Peninsula) has been recently but I have to tell you that you are doing great works of art with the makeup, and I would like you to know about eye makeup so are almonds and horizontal, and slightly sunken eyelid fixed downward, if you want to send a picture to give you a better idea to tell me where I can send the photo (e-mail etc..) is that I makeup like you would love to do but clear your eyes are beautiful and are a great way and not mine! if I can give some examples or advice will be grateful forever, thank you very much in advance for your attention.

I love the song in this tutorial & thank you for mentioning who sang this song. It’s a beautiful rendition of U2′s “With or without you”, which is one of my favorite U2 songs. As for this look, I have dresses that go with this look. About the lipstick, I have warm, medium skin tone & I’m worried that the lipstick that you wore in this video will look too pale & cool toned for me. Any other pink lipstick shades would you recommend for my skin tone? Thank you.
Hi,
I was doing some web searching and found a site called madminerals.org. They sell all kinds of make-up products, but the one thing that caught my eye was there cream eye shadow that they claim are comparable to many MAC paint pot colors. I was just wondering if you have ever got anything them?
i found your site a week ago and i’m already addicted!!!
i looked at some others and they don’t even come close!
Hi Marlena,
I had to tell you that I loved this look and when you raved about the Fresh Morning cream base and how it wasn”t shimmery for highlighting the cheek area I knew I had to get it. I’ve been looking for something like this and so I ordered it off ebay. I received it today and I absolutely love it. It is perfect for me. I will be using this all the time. Thank you so much for all you do. I have learned a lot from watching your videos. I can’t wait to see what you have coming up in future videos.
wow this is amazing! did you get a new camera? your video looks super clear!
Hi, Marlena, you make me leave. I adore you….
OMG…This look is sooo pretty. You look really nice with all of these colors. I have seen many of your tutorials and I think they are great. I love makeup but am not the best lol….keep up the tutorials!
I love this look.. it’s so fresh and cool.. i like the flower in ur hair
it suits u
you look very pretty Marlena..
lol – when i first saw this tutorial i was like “OMG – she looks very beautiful in those colors!”
Thanks for the post. i can not wait to try it out =]
Hey Marlena!
You look GORGEOUS!!!! I love, love, love, love, LOVE this look so much!
Mac got a new summer collection called a Rose Romance! I love it. If you gotr those, will you please put up a video! Really appreciate it!

Hi, I went to a wedding this week and I did this look, it looked perfect with my dress. I took a picture to show it here but I don’t know how to do it. Anyways thanks for the videos you make, they are very helpful, love your work. Beijos… tchau
lush look where can i find the perfect base ?
watched this with my 77year old mother the other day – she has never worn make up except for lipstick, and she was completely blown away by it, she thought it was so pretty. Maybe it’s not too late to convert her to the joys of make up!
Awesome! I love pink lillies. Maybe you should do a tutorial inspired by a magnolia tree!
Love this one!! You are awesome!!
It’s really beautiful
me and my sisters like your video,we come from quebec and we come here often
bravo!
Hi ,

i loveeee how you mekeup
that is sooo amazing and i cant wait to try it

HI
Well just luv your tuts, like the quality of the picture and a screen area you can see.
Love the subtleness of your makeup, sexy not trampish, and your inspiration, way KOOL! and well I’m a guy, not a makeup wearer but do digital retouching and needed some how to apply a nice classy clean yet glamorous look.
You have given me a good idea of how to apply and I refer to your tuts as a good reference,
I’m sure your makeup following fans can’t wait for new tuts and advice!
Thanks so much!
Do I have to get the 120 palette from eBay is there any stores I can get it from,I don’t know how it works,and your makeup is beautiful I love it
Hello,
I just stumbled upon your video’s on youtube today…I’ve never felt very confident with applying makeup, you are a natural! I have big eyes and the video you posted really helped me, however my one problem is choosing colours, my eyes are a light blue and I feel limited because my eyes are also quite big. My question is: What colours should I use? Does hair colour matter? I have blond hair and I am very pale. Thank you!
Melissa
pleaseeeeeee send me the song because i cant find it anywhere…… Pleaseee
Thank you
Heyy,
Where do you get these amazing palettes? Please reply x
Hi Marlena!
How can we know exactly which colors this pallette has?
Thanks
