Gosh I don't even love makeup but I love watching you just out of pure respect for you, your craft, and your integrity as a business owner.

The YT Beauty space NEEDS YOU, Marlena! Years back watching your channel showed me I really wasn’t shallow, vain or self-centered for loving makeup. It gave me the confidence to follow my own intuition and I can’t begin to tell you how it’s shaped my life for the better. ❤ THANK YOU!

[larissahall]

I’m so happy that you did a subtle makeup routine. I am getting back into doing my makeup after being majorly depressed for the last 7 years. Thank you, Marlena!

[JE-zkwh]

I love how your instructions are clear and easy to understand. Thank you!

[rosanabb]

Marlena, your channel is pure gold for us makeup lovers!! Thank you!! ❤❤

[RaelNikolaidis]

I’ve watched Marlena for years, literally forever, and I still watch her. I love her, I root for her and I hope Makeup Geek ( or it’s equivalent) comes back!❤❤❤

[toniaroane]

You were MADE for this Marlena! Not only is your makeup SO GOOD, you explain everything SO WELL. One day I'm gonna drive down to Houston (I'm in Ft Worth) and BEG YOU to do my makeup! LOL

[maureentakach]

Thank you. This is awesome, Marlena. I never was a "2016 girl" with the cut crease and contour and the Shape Tape (no judgment) I'm 50. My takeaway from that era is that I love highlighter. It's good to see you again, girl xo. Best wishes to you and your family ❤

You are the queen of simple chic makeup looks .Greetings from Egypt

[rhondaklimasch]

I absolutely love this. I am in my 40's as well, it's refreshing to watch your videos and learn from you. I need all the tips and tricks I can get.😊

[btwitsway]

I love that you are talking it back to the basics, I’ve forgotten along the way. Xxoo

You are such a teacher at heart Marlena. Your instructions are always clear and helpful. I hope Lexy enjoyed her nap. And if I could suggest a recreation of a makeup look it would be from 2022 when Maria Menounos wore a green dress to the Oscars. She had a cat eye type of makeup look that seemed to use both black and green eyeliner. She's beautiful no matter what. But I think that makeup look was so pretty on her. I would love it if you could recreate it.

[mjmcnay]

You are so stunning and elegant! I appreciate that you are a vivacious curvy lady because I am too and you always remind me that we can still look stunning ❤

[Panthia_Poe]

Marlena, I feel so validated! I've been doing this look for awhile now. I'm 55 and I wanted to look timeless when I tried mastering the more natural look... and you look beautiful and timeless!! I love your eyes! My eye shape is different than yours, but on you? I couldn't stop looking at your eyes!! I see your eyes, not your makeup. You really look gorgeous!! I missed the time you were first on YouTube, but heard of you later (good things) and I'm so glad your doing makeup tutorials again. I'm really enjoying learning from you, the GOAT of makeup artistry!!

Thank you, finally someone said it, all thoes chunky, flacky, metallic, foiled eyeshadows and more dossent look good om my werry texture eyelids, sometimes my eyelids looks like they are marbel cracked and I hate it so much writh the overly shining, I'm always looking fore olde style shimmers.
I did order some leftover mat eyeshadows from makeup geek, yes they are stil selling.
i hope that wril help and keep the shine too a thin eyeshadows liner along the lashline.
Big hugs from Denmark 🌹🥰

I just recently started watching you…new fan😊 love the natural make up look. As a woman in her 50’s, I’m learning that a natural look seems to flatter me more. Love the other looks too, just struggle to make them look good on me.

[meganshillinger]

Mama.. I miss your makeup! You're such a great zen moment to watch and listen. I remember when I discovered MG... I love you! ❤️ wishing you the best.

[lannievast]

Gorgeous look you’ve given me inspiration to try again and get my make up done right. Thank you.

[utoobr]

I love this tutorial! It's so elegant! You know, I don't think I can get away with 5 minute makeup anymore. I really need time for that base makeup. And I agree about needed more color! Where does it go?!

[nmultani]

Marlena I just wanna say I love youuuu for this invaluable
