I'm a redhead and I LOVE this look. I need to recreate this for sure.

[mequable]

I just love watching her work and use those flat brushes, making it look so easy. This is talent.

[scottzambon]

This model is so pretty! Beautiful brows, nose, skin, bone structure!

Mary is so wonderful to watch for her personality, in addition to her genius as a makeup artist. It's always obvious that her models are trying not to crack a grin while she's talking.

Mary has always done the incredible work. It always looks like she slaps all the products on their faces and the results always WOW.
Can Mary please so the tutorial for Asian look too? love all of your work

[amygalvin]

I love how you use your hands and fingers for much of her color . Thank you for doing a pale redhead. Rare to find a tutorial on our unique coloring. ❤

Is Elle a dancer or a gymnast? I'm sure it's one of those. Her posture is quite severely correct. Such a true beauty. Kudos, Mary!

Beautiful model and makeup! One of the best makeup videos I’ve seen

[arinemiko]

so gorgeous. I love Mary's casual attitude and techniques. The results are always so stunning!

[charlottebrown]

This is one of, if not the most beautiful make up tutorials I have seen! I love just watching Mary work.

[TheAngelnoir]

She can't do no wrong!!! I love how she uses the tools that she wants regardless of their original intension.

So refreshing to see no hard/clown contouring ...lovely

When I see a video from Mary I do one of two things: either watch it immediately or save it up so it's not over too soon. She's such an incredible artist – always fascinating and so ingenious. I learn more from her than I do from anybody. She's the absolute master.

[ALittleBitShabby]

I am always so jealous of anybody with red hair, if you have it I hope you enjoy it, I've never understood people getting ridiculed for having such gorgeous colouring!x

[peachmuffin]

The model is gorgeous, the makeup is gorgeous, Mary is gorgeous and amazing... I'm in love.

[Waldorfdarling]

This is probably one of my favorite looks by Mary ever. I'm dying to get Tisse Rivoli, the shades are stunning. I will use this video as a reference once I get my hands on it. Impeccable work, I am amazed once again. Thank you!

[n.k.s]

I kind of love how at first it looks like she just cakes it on and you think, "Oh man this is NOT going to look good" but as she works and blends she creates art. I could never do make up that way. Such a unique talent.

[HenJack-vlcb]

One of the most sofisticated and beautiful looks at YouTube..

[erasethedevil]

Mary Greenwell is a true makeup artist. same with Lisa Elridge. they do not overdo anything. Mary never changes th natural brows of her clients. she never does them harsh or sharp. no messy contour lines! She does not change a person's beauty, she enhances them! a true makeup artist indeed. just elegance! How come I have just seen her and Lisa Elridge's videos?? Where have I been all these years???

[manuelaherrera]

Mary's work takes my breath away yet again!!!!
