  3. Hi Marlena ! I really love this look, it’s gorgeous !
    I’m wondering something : why don’t you show the NYW boxes to the camera (as you do for MAC e/s) ? I’d like to see these colors too :) Anyway, I already have bought “Morroco” on Cherryculture (I’m waiting for the delivery), and I’m glad to hear that’s a beautiful color !
    (P.S. : excuse my bad english, I’m from France !)

  9. Love this pink look :) and the lips, I’m getting tired of everyone doing the nude lip.

  10. Sure can :)

    MAC Dupes:
    -Da Bling
    -Passionate or Fuschia pigment
    -Shroom or White Frost or Solar White

    Under the lower lashline- any purple color will do :)

  11. This look utterly perfect! UGH *jealous*. Amazing work!!

  12. Hi, I love ur pink look (well all of them). I am new to makeup (well not very new), I have most of the colours either in velvet or satin finish some are with shimmer and some are without, well a mixture of both. I am going shopping 2mrw and I wanted to know what else I can buy, I want some colours by MAC? because sometimes when I apply makeup it looks like a big bundle of shimmer, should I purchase matte colours, if so which ones?
    Keep up the god work.
    Thankz

    ps. can you please reply when you get time as I can write the colours down and wonder of shopping

  13. This look is very very pretty indeed. I can’t wait to practice it on me and my friends. Thanks a lot for the tutorial. You’re a star!

  14. I LOVE this! Going to try it tommorrow. You pull it off flawlessly!

  15. Preeeetttyyyy!!!!! Now all I need are pink e/s!! ;)

  16. ok heres what i want to know…
    face makeup and all of it???

  17. hi,
    Marlene i think your well pretty. and your looks are all great, and really helpful.
    thing is i dont have much MAC makeup (bit pricey for me) was just wondering if the looks you do are possible with any other type of makeup?

    also i was wondering if you can do an everyday natural look-because i’ve tried but cant get it right! ;-(
    HELP!

    thankyou.
    hope to hear from you!

  18. Yep- any of the looks can be done with whatever brand you have or like- I try to hold up the colors so you can match it the best you can :)

    Arshi, the best matte or satin ones that i like by mac are:
    -Purple Haze
    -Espresso
    -Cork
    -Rule

    Liz, did I wear all the products listed? Yes… The emote blush is to contour the cheekbones while the pinky blush is for blush ;)

  19. Hi Marlena,
    First of all I would like to congratulate you for your expertise, truly one of a kind. I love all of your tutorials, I am starting out in makeup and I currently do not use Mac products, I love Bare Escentuals. Would you mind telling me which brushes would you recommend from Bare Escentuals as a must. For example you mention the MAC 217 brush, which brush would that be in Bare Escentuals?
    Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!
    Regards,
    Zahra

  20. heyyyy

    is it possible you do a natural everyday look that doesnt take very long???

    thnx

  21. Sure can- I have one that I did today that was pretty natural (minus some glitter in the inner corner)…

    Zahra, I know the tapered shadow brush is good from BE as well as the angled blush brush, but besides those, I can’t think of any dupes for the MAC ones… If you were to get just a couple MAC ones, I would get the 217 and either 239 or 219- those are the most versatile…

  22. Marlena,
    I have a feeling that Mac’s 239 and 219 looks like a tapered shadow brush, or the BE Double-Ended Precision Brush http://store.bareescentuals.com/Double-Ended+Precision+Brush/30899,default,pd.html?cgid=BE_SUB_EYE_BRUSH&deleteUUID= which will take care of those two. Now Mac’s 217 brush resembles the BE Blending Brush, http://store.bareescentuals.com/Blending+Brush/26388,default,pd.html?cgid=&deleteUUID= do you think it sounds accurate?

    Thanks for your help!!!!!!
    Zahra

  23. This look reminds me of your Glinda from Wicked look except it’s a bright light pink. I’m sure Glinda would not mind wearing this look since pink is her signature color. This look is as beautiful as the Glinda look and you did a beautiful version of the look in the picture. So thank you for doing a great tutorial on one of my favorite looks on your site.
