The football video was terrible. She needs to seriously stop trying to play makeup artist.
Also, aside from her annoying giggle and hand-talking or whatever she does with her hands, her sudden emphasis on certain letters is annoying. Like if she says kitten she says kiTT-en. Extra emphasis on the T. She did it in both football videos.
That Cardinal video horrible camera work. What's the point if you can't see what she's doing?

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Thankyou! And I also don't believe that she regularly works out because the sheer amount of surgery she's had would have a whooole lot of recovery time. In order for any diet to stick, you have to put the work in to shift your metabolism properly. I'll be the first one to admit I eat quite bit throughout the day... but it's basic food and I have tiny portions. I've given up coffee and have maybe glass of red wine for my skin and to chill before bed but that's it. She should give english breakfast tea a try. Not nearly as addictive..Sierradanielle27 wrote:
Good for you for pushing yourself all these years! I agree that she really needs to go back to the basics with food. Nothing processed. I had to break the fast food addiction 4 years ago due to my migraines. She really needs to look at everything she's eating and cut out most of it. She's trying to be like "hungrygirl" and use diet foods. Diet foods are full of chemicals.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Geeez Marlena seems to have forgotten how to blend! I hate that harsh line she has with her eye shadows and the ultra caked on highlighter. [CONFOUNDED FACE] Also has anyone else noticed that her eyebrows or nose fail to move AT ALL during the video? This girl is OD'ing on the botox. Plus her eyes look ridiculously stretched out. Could she be wearing tape?

Did she actually say her new "foiled" shadows crumble in transit because they're so creamy? Maybe (*gasp*) they just aren't as great as Marlena claims....

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I liked the video, but agree the highlighter and blush are way overboard. She's also doing that stupid nose contour where you add a strip of contour across the top of your nose. It makes people look they have a Miss Piggy nose and that is not attractive. I do not know why people like this.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
You mean she's sponsored by weight watchers. She'll do any thing for money including lie through her teeth about weightloss and what she eats remember that wendy's salad video she did.
Looks like she's been in for some more botox. I don't know why she contours her nose so much either. Or why any one who's had a nose job, or multiple ones like Marlena has, continues to contour their nose so heavily. Why not just hack it off like your stomach if you think its so big. She looks scary.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I experience this with Houdini the dark teal shadow. I messaged them with a picture and they sent a new one right out. I was really disappointed with the shadows though. She raved about them and how you don't need any primer. After an hour of wear it was creasing so badly! And I had used primer AND an eye shadow base. I commented on one of her IG pics and another user said she talked about using a powder base for oily lids. Well, I have very dry skin especially in the winter so oily lids was not the problem. The problem was the product and how she marketed it. What good is a pigmented shadow if it never sets and continues to crease with wear.karmicrelief wrote:Did she actually say her new "foiled" shadows crumble in transit because they're so creamy?

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
^ Thank you for posting this. Their marketing practices have made it so that it is impossible to find an honest review of their product anywhere, and the constant exposure to it on youtube is hard to resist sometimes.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I feel like her voice doesn't match her face. She sounds so young but then it's like... damn ^ The peaks and valleys of her facial features are so harsh and cartoonish looking. She got the fillers, but when she got thinner the rest of her face is sunken in.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I hate how everyone on YouTube is raving about these foiled eyeshadows. Just because they got it sent free doesn't mean they should manipulate their viewers into buying them. Marlena is making these out to be made out of pure gold.. Sure it's pigmented but that's what we expect already...

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I stopped watching her videos, but every time I come in here, I'm shocked to see her face. She's aging herself by at least a decade with all those horrible fillers. She is a mess. Get it together, girl. I also hate her makeup there.

She probably tried to do a cut crease, which is cool if done right.kitty_mamacita wrote:Geeez Marlena seems to have forgotten how to blend!

I agree, way too much highlight and contour. I wear makeup almost everyday, but it never looks heavy like that. Her nose looks like a pigs nose (I'm not saying she's a pig). She looks awful. Doesn't anyone who cares about her say something? Her parents? Real friends? I tried on a horrible lipstick the other day and my friend said my lips looked like I'd just eaten a pile of sh$t. (I love my friend and her brutal honesty lol)

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Yes!! Why can't they be honest? Most people can see through the fakeness. They are pigmented and I personally like the shimmer. They are nowhere near super metallic. There are much more metallic/foil looking shadows out there. She feels the need to ALWAYS mention you don't need primer. Uh yes you definitely do!Minayoki wrote:I hate how everyone on YouTube is raving about these foiled eyeshadows.

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Well I had high hopes for the foiled shadows and once I got them i actually wasn't excited, more like blah...I wanted to love them but it seems that the lighter colours made my lids look more creased than ever and I have normal to dry lids.
I tried moisturiser, primer and it just looked weird on me.
Even used my fingers to apply that was slightly better but still I'm not a fan anymore. The purple colour is sheer imo, and I found Houdini and flame thrower to be crumbly with fallout. So Marlena stop tooting your damn horn, the train ride is over!!!

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Part of me kind of wants to try them because they do look pretty, but then I remember that the Loreal Infallible shadows exist and they're probably just as pigmented or better and for cheaper.
Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
I will say that I have about 9 of the regular MUG shadows and I really do love them. I think they are great quality - easily as good as Mac (which I actually find can be hit and miss). I think the mattes especially are impressively creamy, since nice shimmers are easy to come by. That's why I doubt I'll fork over for the "foiled" shadows.
But what a shame about Marlena. She used to be such a pretty girl. It saddens me to see her literally destroying herself. She needs to listen to Colbie Caillat's song "Try" about a million times. She never actually seems happy anymore

Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
The Loreal ones and/or ColorPop shadows are more "foiled". Even a MAC pigment.ValWinchester1990 wrote:Part of me kind of wants to try them because they do look pretty, but then I remember that the Loreal Infallible shadows exist and they're probably just as pigmented or better and for cheaper.
They're not bad shadows, they're just not foiled.
Re: MakeupGeekTV Part 3
Yeah and both L'Oreal and Colour Pop are cheaper. And a MAC pigment will last you for your whole life, or you can buy samples for like $3. For mattes, of which I only have two MUG ones, I personally think that MAC's formulas give you more control because you can build up the color to the intensity you want instead of having it be like BAM and then having to tone it down. MACs "matte²" formula is especially lovely -- it's like the perfect middle ground between MUG's formula and MAC's normal matte formula.
