aawwww..girl!!! You looked so beautiful!!! I love this!! I just saw the photo, since I”m at the office, I’ll watch the YT when i go home!!! LOVE LOVE this!!!
What mascara do you use?
I love this look!!! How do you apply you paint pots?? Also for a primer would you suggest the benefit one or paint pots?? Again I love this, the only problem I have is the liner for the lid and mascara.. . ^_^
^^^^ I can recomend the primer from Benefit f.y…eye
Thanks for this tutorial!
Hi Marlena,
I love your website, and especially this tutorial is exactly what I was looking for….so thanks for showing all details!
I have a question-not about make up-but where did you get a ring you are wearing in the video?? I really like it;)
Whoops- forgot the mascara
I used Loreal Voluminous Carbon Black for this video
Also, either eye primer would work… I apply paint pots with a small shader brush, then blend out with my fingers if needed.
This ring I *think* I got from JcPennys… if not, then Claires
Hi Marlene,
I really like this look, but I do not own any mac products…can you recommend the eyeshadows in a different brand (drug store brands)?
Thanks,
Larac
This is really pretty. I’ve been wearing the mod look since you posted the video, I’m excited to try this one out today…although maybe with some browns vs. the blacks for work… Thanks for posting, your tutorials are always clear and very easy to duplicate with your instructions!!

Great tutorial as always Marlena!
Hi Larac
You just need a tan color, a color close to your skin tone, dark brown, and black
this look is so beautiful on you!
i love it.
Just Gorgeous!!!
Love it
Hi Marlena,
Thanks again for this great look.
I’ll try it.
Just a question, when I blend a darker color on a brighter one I always cover the brighter one.
Actually, it happens all the time.
What do you think I’m doing wrong ?
Thanks for your help and please keep giving us your tutorials.
Hi Nina
You’ll need to blend the brighter color over the darker one. Apply the bright color first, then the dark, the pick up more bright color and blend out the line between the two…
I loved the video! I’m definitely trying it tomorrow since my I’m sending my little sister off on her first overseas trip to Italy. Sister PICTURE time, gotta look good !! lol, thanks for the inspiration.
Hello Marlena, that’s pretty impressing, I’m far from being able to do any of this but I’d like to know who’s singing
It’s by “storyside B”- I LOVE their music
I went to see them perform and got to meet the lead singer- he was very humble and down to earth.
Marlena,
i love your manicured nails and you always pick out a cute ring to wear. Anyways this was a great simple look! Thank you.
Thanks so much for doing this tutorial. I tried it yesterday and today and I had great luck. I love this eye look
Hi there,
I have just discovered your web site through you tube. It’s fab! I love your looks. I’m going to a wedding this coming weekend. So i’ll definitely try this look out. Thanks
Hi! I just had a quick brush question for you
I’ve noticed that you sometimes use 222 and sometimes 217 to blend shadow into the crease. Can you tell me a general rule to decide which kind of blender brush to use for that crease?
Thank-you so much!
From Mèxico ,Thanks a lot for the tutorial!!

I love your tutorials! I especially like the Mod look and Penelope. I think I’m drawn to strong dark eyes. I hope you can do a Sophia Loren or Salma Hayek soon.
