You should definitely wear red lips more often ! You look gorgeous like this !
This is GORGEOUS! Retro looks are my favorite! So simply, classy and interesting.
beautiful as always!
Absolutely gorgeous once again Marlena!
Marlena, you are flawless! I love this look on you! =)
What brand and model camera do you use to take your pics? It takes great pictures.
This is gorgeous! I wish I could find a red that looks good on me!
Love this Look Marlena!
I decided to get some red lipstick for the holidays yesterday.
I can’t wait to to try this look.
You are the best. Your tutorial is so clear and helpful.
Hi Marlena–This is a gorgeous look! I only have MAC products though, so can you possibly tell me which MAC e/s colors would be comparable??
Thanks!!
Sooo pretty, Marlena! I’m definitely using this!
Once again you show us why we always visit makeupgeek first thing in the morning – you are so inspiring
You’ve made me take the time, to apply my face in the morning, and it makes me feel and look so much more professional at work, which is really important since I have my own business

Marlena,all your tutorials are simple perfect!
I love these so much!
Your criativity makes my life colored and happy!
And increase my self esteem!
Thank you very much!
Kisses from Brazil!
I’m in my mid 30s and still can’t find the courage to wear red! Love your look though. Looks great with your fair skin and brown hair and your whole style in general! My favourite red lipstick is the “yellow- tomato red” tone from MAC, called “Lady Bug”. I’m golden blonde, fair skin, warm tones. Try it! It’s gorgeous and doesn’t look vulgar like most reds! You’ve definitely inspired me and I am gonna try it this Christmas for sure! Bye!
Hey Marlena! was wondering if you could tell me what colour you wear in the MUFE HD foundation? you wear the same colours as me in other brands. its just the MUFE store in Dublin is wickedly expensive and if i go in and ask them for my colour i will totally cave and buy, so i want to buy it online instead! thanks x
Gorgeous as always!
I’m pretty fair with blond hair–what shade of red would you recommend for lipstick? I’d love to try this look for this holiday season! Also, could you list some e/s colors that would be compatible for this look from other brands? Thanks so much! and keep up the gorgeous work here! I love it
Cool! This look is useful! = )
just came across one of your tutorials on u tube then had a nosy at your website witch is great i think your very talented! being a makeup artist my self i shall now be using some of your usefull tips !!
This is so pretty!
What fluffy dome brush are you using? I’ve never seen it before.
Thanks!
Wow! This is so pretty, like usual. You make simple things look so good. Maybe somday I will have the courage to wear red like that!!!! Love it!
I bought the NYX lip products tonight.. but they didn’t have the lipliner shade and I got the jumbo crayon in “hot red”. I thought you were using hot red and not deep red. I did get the same gloss at least.. and saw another one on youtube called juicy cherry that looked really pretty.
Awesome stuff! Keep up the good work!
I love all you tutorials!! you are so good at it!
Love this look! I really like your glam tutorials too, but I have been looking for some classic retro looks and here it is!
Thanks for all of your help and great tips!
Marlena this should be your everyday look..maybe not so much red lipstick for everyday but definitely the eyes! Thats AMAZING on you!
I love this look.. it’s so simple and classy.
i love all of your looks, but i rly wanted to request one,
it’s haley’s look from Paramore, in the video “That’s what you get”
i really like her look, i mean her makeup and especially eye-liner
or you could do the one from “crushcrushcrush”
im sorry, i mean you could choose whatever you want
i’m actually learning soo much from your videos, and i’m a beginner so it’s really cool
marlena, you have the most grogeous skin complexion ever!
