The white cast on that lip pencil is wax bloom and indicates the pencils were stored at too high a temperature at some point before purchase. This isn't difficult to believe since their place of origin is Mexico. You can also see this phenomenon on chocolate that is stored in temps high enough to allow some waxes to come out of the crystalline structure without being hot enough to liquefy it completely. Wax bloom is harmless, but the loss of wax in the structure can change the textures of things slightly.

@phyllistallent4149 Год назад

I’ve had the white cast before- as you pointed out, most likely from temperature exposure

@kfemme68 Год назад

Yes, I remember buying lip pencils and maybe eye pencils in the past that had the wax bloom. I don't know that I've had one like that in quite a few years but I'm 54 so I've been wearing makeup for a long time. 😜 Thanks for the information. Take care all and big hugs, k

@MarlenaStell Год назад

Great info! I had feeling it was wax bloom but I’ve never seen on a pencil like that before so it was concerning. The texture on that one vs the Italy one was much different though. The one with wax bloom was super dry

@carla8687 Год назад

Like on reeses cups?

@jmk1413 Год назад

I was coming to say the layman's version of this, thank you! I've had wax bloom on my Colourpop liners (eye & lip)... I'm surprised so many people don't know or are unsure what this phenomena is when they see it. Thank you for dropping the science knowledge!

I need a tutorial on your eye look. It’s so beautiful, Marlena!

@StormSongs7 Год назад

I think it was last year or the one before, she gave tutorials (LIVE, ifrc), on eyeshadow placement for various shaped eyes. She had umm, cards with various shapes & color combinations. I KNOW there had to have been a ton of planning to make the presentation. *whispers, I took screenshots of a few that I thought would work for myself*.

@EmorettaRobinson Год назад

I'm so glad that you are doing this series. You knowledge of the ingredients and where the products are made is very helpful.

@thedhufty Год назад

Also taking in consideration that eyeliners, mascara and lipgloss should be changed every so often. I wouldn’t drop a lot of money on those.

@prettyacct Год назад

Years ago Wayne Goss said there were only 3-4 companies that made lip liners. I've seen a white cast plenty of time on lip pencils. I've always found it to be a slightly drier pencil and that's the only difference.

@myshittyreviews Год назад

Love your integrity and honesty…we need more of this in the beauty community.♥️

@josenieves3843 Год назад

You’re quite literally the GOAT, please keep doing these kind of videos, you should be on a major brand’s team to elevate them. PERIODT! 😂

@MadTeacher Год назад

This RU-vidr is absolutely underrated. She should have a lot more followers and reach than what she has rn.

@jenem9618 Год назад

Because she actually knows what she's talking about, and isn't just a glorified salesperson like most of the beauty community. Sad that the salespeople seem to get the most views.

@Katzku Год назад

Can't wait for that talc free video! I try to avoid talc but it's everywhere 😩

@jessicacollins9033 Год назад

I’ve worn the Loreal Voluminous mascara for 35 years!!!❤ It’s the best!

@CheyenneRosero Год назад

For me, I really only splurge because of color preference that I can’t find in the drugstore. Basically what you were saying when you got to lip liners. Love this video, super informative!

@asena1181 Год назад

Very very interesting! Thank you Marlena for the work gone into making a video like this. You’re the only one I see doing videos like this and I just want to thank you for that and the education!

@lauracorral3594 Год назад

Tha white cast is wax bloom. It is harmless. There is a Mexican makeup brand made completely in Mexico and believe me it is pretty good. 🥰

@nikiholman5740 Год назад

Omg this explains why the NYX lipliners I have some feel dry and some creamy. Just checked and YUP I never would have noticed on my own I thought they had QA issues so I stopped buying it

@christiedugal279 Год назад

Thank you for explaining Isododecane! I have a bad reaction to it and always break out when I use a product that has it. I’ve never been able to get a clear understanding of what exactly it is.

@Patti-1962 Год назад

These kinds of videos are so valuable to me. Having retired very early due to chronic health issues, I had to start buying more affordable products. Since I was stuck at home, I started learning about ingredients and I can honestly say that my makeup collection is almost all affordable products! The most difficult product for me to find was face powder. But the Elf Halo Glow powder is working beautifully~ LOVING your content!!☺

@mammabear8774 Год назад

Can u please do a video on the higher price luxury brands that own drugstore brands? Would be so interesting to know who owns who. Love your bravery on your new video line up!!!❤❤

@kayanataslam1766 Год назад

Can we please have a similar video, but for skincare?

@TaraLynnbeauty Год назад

I'm such a luxury girl, this video was INCREDIBLY insightful and having your background, I appreciate these types of videos❤ Thank you so so much, as always, you're amazing ❤

@cherisenunez2530 Год назад

You are the perfect bridge between cosmetic chemist and ingredient geek and I am loving it. While I love watching the chemists go into the molecular formation and break down sometimes my brain loses the plot and I don't bring it back around to the product in my hand. This is fantastic for spring to my 12yr old budding mua - she's just like me and interacts with things based on how they work and less of what label they're wearing. Thank you 😊

@p31heart Год назад

So excited for you to source a talc free and mica free makeup that is clean thank you

Marlena you are amazing on helping us get the best, good products for our money ❤. You let us know what to get and what to stay far far away from ❤.. I can’t wait to see what your next venture is and to support an honest, caring person that wants the best for us !

@lindareeves7779 Год назад

Marlene is so beautiful! I have always respected her opinion because she’s always been honest with us and she explains things so that I am able to understand also she has so many good videos showing us how to put on our makeup. I started buying her products over 10 years ago and they were always top quality and so low priced

@Crystal0139 Год назад

@Nicolee1973 Год назад

Great video! I only use cruelty free products, so when a drugstore product is recommended instead of a more expensive brand, I usually won’t take advantage of the savings. ( even though I would love to) Can you do a video talking about brands and cruelty free practices? I think it would very interesting. Thanks!❤

@lilajane3 11 месяцев назад

You might as well pirchse the Loreal eyeliners because same formulation as the Urban decay and Loreal owns Urban Decay

@Nikachu0906 Год назад

Loving this series! I can’t wear talc, and trying to find powders without have been hard. But the Covergirl clean line in the pink packaging is vegan, talc free, and cruelty free, so that is what I have been using for the past year or so. I think you should check it out when you are looking for a new powder :-)

@StormSongs7 Год назад

I’m always on the lookout for scents, fragrances, “parfum”, etc…in products. I tried L’Oréal’s Infallible Waterproof concealer. The smell did NOT fade, even after 30 minutes. The scents made me nauseous. Their lipsticks cause it for me, as well 🤢. Thank you for always being honest. 💜💞♥️ .

Loving your content, can you do one on eyeshadows and those teeny tiny pinpoints/glitters that I hate and how to know if a shimmer shadow has them in it. I can never tell on line and most utubers are not mentioning that horrible glitter fallout where it takes days to get it off your face.❤
