    Love this look! You are so talented…
    I looked up all the products and some are discontinued :\ any advice on replacements?

  6. marlena on May 17th, 2008 at 3:17 am:

    Knight Divine instead of Charred e/s
    Wedge e/s instead of Emote blush- yep, I swatched them both :)
    Myth l/s instead of Fleshpot

    I’m pretty sure those will be close :)
    I also know that Kim wears NARS Turkish Delight lipgloss if you’d like to try that…

    This is the best tutorial I have seen thus far. I do have a question though, Charred eyeshadow is off the market, can you suggest another color? Your eyes look so amazing!

  9. Melanie on June 4th, 2008 at 5:51 pm:

    Ignore my question about the charred replacement I just saw it. Sorry! Thanks again :)

    Firstly, this look looks lovely on you. You are very talented.

    I would also like to ask… Can you suggest any eye pencils that I can line the waterline with that will last for a while and wont smudge down below the lashes? I live in Australia and I cant seem to find the one that you use. I dont think we have that particular brand here.

    Thankyou.

    i have been searching the websites for different looks. I am not a make up artist but have been playing with make up for years and people think i am an artist. I am doing faces for a wedding party mid july. the bridesmaid dresses are wine colored, ankle length that tie around the neck. i am trying to find several looks to try. it cant be too bold because the dress is bold enough. i was thinking of a soft smokey eye but now i am open to anything. can you send me some suggestions for a smokey eye that may have a touch of wine or burgundy in it. i saw your purple smokey on youtube and that was georgous. my collection consists of MAC and NYX shadows. please send me some suggestions on a tutorial for a wine smokey eye or if you have done a tutorial on that, where can i find it?

    Great tutorial. Do you have any plans to re-create Kim’s softer new look - I just saw it on the Insider last night. I find your tutorials soooo helpful. Keep up the great tips, and my thanks for sharing your knowledge!

  20. Lory on October 28th, 2008 at 6:11 am:

    I love how you apply your make up… I’m getting married in April of 2009 and my colors are ivory and peach, would you happen to know of any ideas you can go ahead and e-mail me?? i really want to do my own make up that would last me all day?

    thanks so much!!

    Hi Marlena,

    First of all, you do not need to apologise about not looking like Kim, no one expects you to nor do most people themselves look like her (I know I dont). I know there are a lot of peolpe on youtube who would complain (to put it nicely) that you dont look like her but forget them, no on on this webite says anything like that because they apprecisate your talent.
    Second of all YOU LOOK FAB GIRL!! Keep it up, you are an inspiration to thousands of us (litterly) and if i wern’t studing my course and if I saw your website before I finished my schooling I would definatly be inspired by you to be a makeup artist, (maybe I still will!)

    Love your tuts keep them up !
