I love this video. I was doing my makeup this morning (I work in an office) and was thinking for using color instead of my usual neutrals. Perfect timing for this video! Thanks a bunch for the ideas!
I love it!! I was looking for makeup like this ones to go to work, I mean with a little bit of color without looking going to a party instead going to the office and not just neutrals colors. Thank you very much. Keep going.
These are beautiful! Perfect for work AND for someone who is just starting to get into make up. They are easy and don't take up to much time. Perfect!!
Thank you so much for sharing your ideas with your viewers. Most make up artists are always hiding their techniques and stuff, but you are kind enough to share..thanks again marlena
I appreciate this vid! Im in my early 30s and cant wear crazy, dramatic eye looks to the office. Great ideas for fresh looks for spring that are office appropriate!
Thaaaaaanks !! with the spring being there, even in Belgium yeah ;-)), I was attracted to more colours but never dare ! now I know !! thaaaaanks !! you are great !! really !
I have really enjoyed your videos over the years. I am a neutrals eyeshadow kinda girl and I work in a super conservative place. I still love watching colorful makeup tutorials though!!! Always fun
I totally agree about the purple being versatile. I actually love the color "Sensuous", from your line. I love the gold shimmer in it. It's the perfect purple for me. I also love how it looks with "Prom Night". Planning on ordering more very soon.
Marlena, I just came across your channel and I am so appreciative of all your advice!! I love that you have suggestions and tutorials beyond what younger people can wear. I love makeup and have since I was a young teen, but once started approaching my 30's I started to get a little lost in what was appropriate or best suited for me. So, thank you from those of us who love makeup just as much as we did when we were 16, but are further away from that age than we care to admit! :)
Awesome video. Don't ever knock using your own shadows, one of the reasons I love buying your shadows is because I know you will help me know how to wear them! Keep the tutorials coming. The are fantastic.
I did a light blue in the inner corner on a girls' night out, and I was really happy with it! Not quite ready to wear it to work but it's spicing up my non-work makeup!
I started wearing make up 2 years ago. First liner, then neutrals. Now with the weather getting warmer and sunnier it's time for colors! Thanks for the video it's really helpfull *into the favs*
Thanks for this Marlena! I've been wanting to branch into wearing colors but didn't know where to start. I'm gonna try out all four of these looks. They're all really pretty!
On the 4th look, I would have place them the opposite of each other. I've used those exact colors and placed shimma shimma on the lid and mango tango in the crease and it looked beautiful. I got lots of compliments on that look too. I loved all the other color suggestions!
I'm glad you are using your shadows. It helps me decide which ones I would like to buy plus if I'm ever not sure on how I want to wear it you have a tutorial!
super helpful! 2nd one is my fav too and usually use peaches and light oranges to brighten up the eye since i am tan so those colors look super gorgeous!
Wow. This was really helpful. I wear colorful makeup everyday with no “strategic placement” and I think it looks pretty good however now watching this I can do more “day time” looks most of mine are “dramatic” thank you for this…years later very helpful
Very helpful video & great tips!! Thank you so much! I have added this to my favourite list to "bookmark" it so I can re-watch it more times to try out the techniques!
Thankyou so much for making this video, Marlena! I have so many beautiful, bright colours in my makeup collection and I'm too scared to wear them. I'm really excited to try out some of these looks!
I'm so glad I saved these videos to watch later. You are incredible at teaching fun looks. I wear what I want also! You are awesome! You're laugh makes me laugh!! ❤️❤️❤️
With your eyes open put a little of the color on your crease just above your fold, this shows you how high you need your lid color(s) to go up to show when your eyes are open. Don't line the upper lash line the liner covers what little lid you have showing, tightline instead. HTH
Thank God! I'm so glad have found a RU-vid artist who knows how to put together looks that are appropriate for the day to day and work! So many want to bring the drama and the flare and it's frustrating because it is not practical and it takes a lot of time to complete...Time I really don't have during the work week...Thanks so much #prettysmart
Marlena, I have wanted you to stop apologizing for promoting your own eyeshadows! So pleased to see you using them here. they are awesome and you should not feel guilty for showing them off. as someone who owns almost all of them, i wish you would do more looks using them. You can always suggest alternatives as you go. and on another note - you get more and more gorgeous every day!
I never would have thought to mix the green with the naked beige color like that, or the way you did the purple, for that matter. I love greens and purples and wear them all the time, but sometimes I look a bit over the top for daytime. Thanks for the tips!
I like how you can explain everything so well. Look 2 is my absolute fave, and I got both shadows, which are also favorites for me, so I am definatly trying this look. :D
This video is for me, I have hooded eyes and very little space to put shadow on and I find what works best for me is only 2 colours and only on mobile lid just like you show here. In every other make up tutorial the work with at least 4 shadows and the finished work is amazing but just because all models or those RU-vidrs have big and great looking eyes already but there is no way I can ever achieve those looks!
this video is so helpful!! even though i'm 16 and could get away with wearing a bunch of bright colors if i wanted, i still like my eyeshadow to be wearable, but neutrals definitely get boring after awhile. thank you marlena!
I would actually LOVE seeing more tutorials using your eyeshadows. I've bought a lot of them already. They're so pretty and pigmented and I wouldn't mind seeing some looks using them :D P.S- I tried out the Wisteria+ Homecoming and loved it. It was a easy and quick and I didn't feel like a clown at work lol
