I feel like Fenty is one of the very rare celeb brands that you can tell the celeb actually cares and is doing it because they love beauty, not just a cash grab. Rare Beauty and Haus Labs too (and I really only started feeling like that about Haus recently, because it took her a minute to create products good enough to gain traction).
I would love to see this but in drugstore products or products under 25 dollars only. not everyone can afford 45 dollar products sometimes but still want something good. But I think I might have found some new favs in this video too :)
Marlena!!! I just received my package today!! I was the girl from twitter that you gave the highlighters to! I’m GOBSMACKED with these highlighters. Daybreak is going to be treasured and I’m not kidding. It beats my all time favorite one. I’m the type of girl who stays with her favorites and tends to not reach for new. I’ve never used anything like this. I’m trying to convince my social anxiety to let me start a channel because I just have been blown away with every product I got. The brushes. The liner. I mean it. I’ve been playing with and staring at everything ALL DAY LONG! You’re an actual angel I swear. You deserve nothing but everything.
Wayne mentioned his brushes will be back😊. What a wonderful treat for you to give us a video with the best products! This is to download for reference!!! Thank you!
I hope you know that what you recommend is highly valued. Your have worked hard for your credibility and you’re just so honest and transparent. Thank you Marlena. P.s. you’re so beautiful 🥰
Bailey, I remember you used one of the Viseart neutral palettes in one of your videos, but I can’t remember which video it was so I can look to see which of the neutral palettes you used! Crazy question but do you happen to remember which palette it was? And which video?
Marlena, thank you for being there through all of it. I've been watching you since the beginning of RUclips. Thank you for your integrity and consistency.
That highlighter from ABH is still in my everyday bag!! I’m 42 and it doesn’t settle in my skin and make it look gross! It’s also the never-ending gobstopper of highlighters because mine is from the 1st launch and I haven’t even smoothed down the waves yet. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
The BEST foundations for mature skin is Bare Minerals original powder foundation & Laura Geller Baked Balance n Brighten. Hands down! I have tried so many foundations at 63 years old. I’m done with searching now that I’ve gone back to these two.
Indeed her products are great. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?
Can you tell me what you find distrustful about Wayne Goss, Patrick Ta, Pat McGrath? Genuinely curious because I don't stay on top of scandals as much as I should.
I’m still using your Auburn eyebrow pencils…. I have six in my back up. That’s how much I love them. Not too soft, not too hard and the Auburn color is perfect for me… not too orange and not too dark… Thank you for making a lovely product.
Indeed her products are great, i use to get them for someone special back in the day. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?

Thank you so much for including many fragrance free options. I became allergic to fragrance and a lot of essential oils recently 😢, and it’s amazing how many products have fragrance. I can get away with fragrance in many products, but not foundation, concealer and primer - things that cover big areas of my skin. Eugenia from Senna is incredible and I really like the Senna under eye brightening powder a lot too.
OMG... I'm so excited to see this video. I appreciate you as a person, your knowledge and your willingness to share with everyone your knowledge and expertise. 🎉 Wayne Goss! I love him. I've been trying to get his brushes for quite some time.
I can't believe you acknowledged my comment. Thank you for this courtesy. I found you by accident and have been trying to catch up. I admire your grace dignity and courage.
Please continue doing these videos but, could you do tutorials also? I follow Nikki La Rose. I like her look but love your glam look. Also, I feel we are in a similar age group.
I cannot thank you enough for such a professional video. You not only clearly name the product, the summary you list to the left of the screen is wonderful. There are beauty influencers I enjoy and givena valid review but I will not follow because they slur the name, never list the product or list the whole line so one does not know which exact product they were using. Awesome, informative, knowledgeable videos! Bravo! ❤
My husband watched Broken with me. My second time his first. I spent the whole time telling him “who” Marlena is and why she is important. I’m so proud of you and everyone else that is standing up for truth. I can’t wait to support you on your new project!!

OMG I thought I was the only one obsessed with the Marc Jacobs highliner!! The absolute best! I miss them. I still have a mini set that is unuseable. But I look at them just to reminisce of the days we use to have 🤣🤣🤣🤣
NGL I just came on here to read what was listed in the best product categories description box but ended up watching the whole video bc Marlena is so great at this. Keeps it moving quickly, very informative while being interesting and uplifting, and keeping it REAL. Thank you for this video it was a great one!
I’ve followed your Chanel for years, I’m from the uk and always dreamed of trying makeup geek shadows, I find your Chanel refreshing informative and now have a shopping list of new products to treat myself to! How exciting x
Ooh so glad you like the Dermablend! I wish they would add more colors and fix their packaging but that formula is game changer for covering my dark circles when I need extra coverage
@@MarlenaStell I totally agree as their dropper is not the best. Btw can you suggest a good setting powdery. I feel every setting powder I use starts “breaking”
I have started doing makeup 10 years ago and I have learned it from watching your videos. Your videos are always very informative and I love watching them. Sending love and good vibes ❤
I would love to learn more about skin care from you .. what order to do it in .. also I am just now being put on retinol A and would love to know what to look for on my skin if using to much, shedding skin etc ! I am 47 and just got told I had skin cancer on my face and they had to remove the spot but seems to also be coming back again .. again ladies you are never to young/ old to start taking care of your skin!! We also need to take care of that so our face still looks flawless no matter what we use ❤
So glad Anisa was on this list, I have 3 of her make-up and several of her skin care brushes as well. Have you checked out Rose and Bens brushes? They're really good!
Hi Marlena! I love this video. I have almost everything you talked about and I cannot agree more. Especially that amrezy highlighter and make up geek matte shadows! Thank you for rounding up the best of all time ✨ Sending kisses from Portugal 😘
Indeed her products are great, i use to get them for someone special back in the day. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?
Really happy to see you recommend that Milani foundation because I just bought it last week to try for the first time! It was on offer & I remembered seeing some celebrities MUA’s use it so I grabbed it 😊
A new liquid liner on the scene is the one from Danessa Myricks. Her brush tip pen is THE BEST I’ve ever tried.. and I’m a liquid liner, graphic liner, winged out junkie! Highly recommend! Great video! ❤
I would love to see a version of this for people with oily and combo but aging skin as well as some items that are a little more budget friendly. I have sensitive acne prone and combo skin that does not do well with any type of silicones and extra dew adding products.
I tried the Armani foundation & it broke my face out SO badly! I just ordered the NARS, so we shall see how that goes! If it doesn’t work for my skin, I’ll go back to the mirenesse! No one talks about Mirenesse, but I love it & have used it for years! I guess I’m branching out a little just to see if there’s something out there that I like better! Thank you, Marlena, for doing these videos! Your content is a game changer for so many!! 🧡🥰
I trust your judgment so much. I have purchased some of your recommendations. You are a breath of fresh air to watch. You have a very beautiful personality and genuine… ❤
Patrick Ta blushes are amazing! She’s Blushing is my holy grail. You should also try his Bronzer! You get a cream and a powder of that too. My favorite.
I would say an alternative for the Amrezy highlighter would be MAC Whisper of Gilt which they made permanent! It’s a little more shimmery but gives the same effect.
😊Indeed her products are great, i use to get some for someone special back in the day. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?
Marlene, I cannot believe that you mentioned the Sephora lipsticks/balms. As a Makeup snob, I have always walked right past the Sephora items and go for the high-end brands .. A few months ago with Sephora had 30% off on their products. I picked up a couple of things and one of them were those lipsticks. .. Omg! I fell in love. I jumped back online and bought several more colors.. they feel so creamy and wonderful on the lips. And you’re right it’s not a lipstick and it’s not a lipgloss. It’s this highbred creamy yet pigmented buttery product that is amazing. At 30% cannot go wrong. It’s a beautiful product.❤
Marlena, I can’t find the video where you tell us the best brush cleaner you use. I know it comes as a soap in a can. Will you post it here if you see this message. Thank you! You are always honest and genuine. By far my favorite beauty and fragrance content creator! ❤️
Can you do a video on animal cruelty free make up and beauty products that are backed by leaping bunny Thank you for sharing what you know about make up
Another awesome video! I can’t wait to see the skincare/body care one as well! Thank you for being so honest over the years. Sending love from Michigan❤❤❤
@marlenastell if u really love the am rezy highlighter, try three custom color. You can send them the color and theyll duplicate color and return the orig color back. Theyre specialty is duplicating your fav discontinued lipstick
I just realized you’re back. I used to watch you a loooooong time ago! It’s so good to see you back. I will now be binge watching your videos ❤❤ much love! You are the real OG!
Absolutely loved this video! I used MUG shadows this morning (mattes) and they are one of my favorite formulas ever. They look so smooth when they’re blended. Never patchy! I also really like Viseart. My other favorites are the original Napoleon Perdis shadows. Thy were fantastic and similar to ABH. Lots of kick up which I love for a matte. Macs are really hard pressed and not my favorite. This video had lots of great recommendations - some I have, some I don’t. Thanks for sharing. PS For the brow intro photo, you’ve used the highlighter photos accidentally. not that it matters because i loved the video! One recent discovery that I’m hooked on, for a fuller coverage foundation, is the YSL After Hours. It looks great, wears all day and I was lucky enough to find the perfect shade/undertone online.
Thank You Marlene this was an amazing video! You are one of the few Influencers I truly TRUST! I purchased the Anisa’s Brushes. Absolutely love them just as you said we would. ❤
Marlena looking absolutely gorgeous, I love your many different hair colours throughout the years !! I can’t wait to watch as I know it’s going to be an honest review
I would love to see you try, and throughts on more creator makeup. Auric Cosmetics, Pearl Beauty, etc. Seeing the other independent brands on here is so great.
I’m obsessed with these informational videos, Marlena! I’m curious why you didn’t talk about Pat McGrath shadows. It seems like so many MUAs are obsessed with them. Honestly, I’m just curious if they’re worth the insane price tag (I’m not an MUA, I want them for just me lol).
I bought the nyx brow pen from this video’s recommendation and daaammmmmnnnn its sooo good ! It only needs the lightest touch to draw super fine lines. It glides so easily and doesnt smear
Indeed her products are great, i use to get some for someone special back in the day. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?
I had really bad experience with UD 24/7 pencil. I applied it to my waterline and it melted into my eyes. I was nearly blind for a few hours. So maybe don’t experiment like I did, keep it on the eye. Great choice of products!
@@Magicwithizz possible. I wrote to them about it but honestly don’t remember their answer. I didn’t want to buy another one and just get the same result. It was a beautiful poison green color! ♥️
Y’all i forgot to add mascaras! SO sorry! I like thickening mascaras so my top 2 favorites are L’Oréal Voluminous and Diorshow mascaras
Was literally going to comment this! BUT I've been watching you so long I already knew your faves. I still use Voluminous bc of you & I love it!
I LOVE the voluminous ones in the colors. They are 🤌🤌🤌

Your makeup ALWAYS looks sooo pretty!! 😍 Your a VERY beautiful and kind woman!! Ty for letting us know your favorites. Be blessed!! Xoxox ❤️❤️❤️
hi Marlena can you do one for the hypoallergenic girlies❤️ love you been watching you for years
Absolutely loved this video! I used MUG shadows this morning (mattes) and they are one of my favorite formulas ever. They look so smooth when they’re blended. Never patchy! I also really like Viseart. My other favorites are the original Napoleon Perdis shadows. Thy were fantastic and similar to ABH. Lots of kick up which I love for a matte. Macs are really hard pressed and not my favorite. This video had lots of great recommendations - some I have, some I don’t. Thanks for sharing. PS For the brow intro photo, you’ve used the highlighter photos accidentally. not that it matters because i loved the video! One recent discovery that I’m hooked on, for a fuller coverage foundation, is the YSL After Hours. It looks great, wears all day and I was lucky enough to find the perfect shade/undertone online.
Luv u Marlena, glad your back and better than ever! Following u
Thank You Marlene this was an amazing video! You are one of the few Influencers I truly TRUST! I purchased the Anisa’s Brushes. Absolutely love them just as you said we would. ❤
Marlena looking absolutely gorgeous, I love your many different hair colours throughout the years !! I can’t wait to watch as I know it’s going to be an honest review
That Anisa Pinnacle Foundation brush and concealer brush are incredible! I've had mine for like 2 years and they are still in great condition. 😊
I would love to see you try, and throughts on more creator makeup. Auric Cosmetics, Pearl Beauty, etc. Seeing the other independent brands on here is so great.
💯❤️Love your willingness to share ‘the goods’😉 with us, Marlena & promote those businesses who make them👌
I’m obsessed with these informational videos, Marlena! I’m curious why you didn’t talk about Pat McGrath shadows. It seems like so many MUAs are obsessed with them. Honestly, I’m just curious if they’re worth the insane price tag (I’m not an MUA, I want them for just me lol).
Yes the Fenty powder is the best I’ve ever tried!
I have watched your videos since you first started your RUclips channel, and I know I can trust and depend upon your recommendations.
I bought the nyx brow pen from this video’s recommendation and daaammmmmnnnn its sooo good ! It only needs the lightest touch to draw super fine lines. It glides so easily and doesnt smear
The Amazon powder puffs are a game changer...thx for the recommendations.....I trust you completely with my skin!!!!
Indeed her products are great, i use to get some for someone special back in the day. I pray God gives you lots of beautiful days, I’m David Greg originally from Spain Granada, I live in Austin Texas and you ?
I had really bad experience with UD 24/7 pencil. I applied it to my waterline and it melted into my eyes. I was nearly blind for a few hours. So maybe don’t experiment like I did, keep it on the eye. Great choice of products!
Oh my gosh really? I use theirs and have never had an issue, that's awful! I will definitely be careful with them from now on.
Oh wow! That's not good... I use mine on the eye lids or under the eyes, but for the waterline I use the Inglot gel liners
That’s wild! Maybe you got a defective one? I use it in my waterline all the time
@@Magicwithizz possible. I wrote to them about it but honestly don’t remember their answer. I didn’t want to buy another one and just get the same result. It was a beautiful poison green color! ♥️
Ive been holding on the my make up geek spell bound blush for dear life 😭 miss you girl!
Omg yes 🙌🏼 bring back that Amrezy highlighter plz. I save it for special occasions and I’m so sad that it’s going to be gone soon 😩
Thank you for this! ❤
LOVE YOU, MARLENA!!!! YOU KEEP SHINING, GIRL!!!!❤❤❤
