5 Days of Makeup and Hair Ideas for Work | Makeup Geek

[@brittanymarr8530]

Am I the only one who feels like Marlena is just the nicest and sweetest person ever? Like I feel like she would be the best person ever to meet in person. So talented too omg

[@MarlenaStell]

Awww… thank you SO much Brittany!! You made my night- thank you :)

[@tiona33]

I agree...and I am so proud of her success, because I love seeing nice people doing well!

[@savannafritschle5182]

Yes, she seems like such a sweetheart!

[@anahirojas6291]

You are definitely right :) I have been following her since she first started her channel. She's amazing..I wish more makeup gurus were like her. Hands down, marlena is my favorite..always has..always will :)♡

[@GinnyE25Mikah96]

I agree

[@chelsealeebennett]

You people are silly, these looks are very wearable in ANY work setting! She does an excellent job of making these looks classy and wearable for every day. It's your own problem if you don't want to get up early enough to put a little effort into your look! Maybe then green eyeliner and purple lips wouldn't seem so far out of reach! You go lady, I will ABSOLUTELY be trying each of these looks throughout the week!! Thanks!!:)

[@tracydababseh]

This is by far one of the best video series type thing EVER. Please make more like this I LOVE it!

[@thepurplemela]

I still watch this video even after six years!!! Thank you for the easy ideas and combos. Still can use these for everyday looks. You’re awesome Marlena!!!

[@hazzelV]

I absolutely love that you are not afraid of color!!! love how every single look came out. Beautiful.

[@StephIsPumped]

You seriously go above and beyond with your videos! So freaking awesome of you for taking time to make excellent videos for us! All of the looks were beautiful! :D

[@MarlenaStell]

Thank you Stephanie! :)

[@DarlyneBeauty]

This is my kind of video! I remember when you did this type of video a long time ago and I just loved it and found it very inspring to not get stuck in a work makeup rut. Thank you! Muah

[@ranunkel1]

I really love the last look, with the white blouse! Gorgeous.

[@LaurenBeth671]

Wow Marlena, this video probably took forever to make! Thank you for still making time for us on top of your already busy schedule! xoxo

[@MarlenaStell]

It did! I started taping this a couple months ago and I retaped a few of the looks to make them better- I swear this video has been worked on forEVER. LOL

[@Neonrollerskates]

I can't believe how far you have come, Marlena. I have been watching a long time and I am so blown away. Just thinking about when you first started and now. What a difference!

[@JessMirrkat]

I need those first two pigments, absolutely gorgeous!

[@adrianavargova]

Hi Marlena! I am so thankful for these ideas for work! They look so simple and easy... Could you possibly do more of these videos? I like the hair ideas as well.

[@tracydababseh]

+adrianavargova I agree, must have more please Marlena!

[@alexandrarust4045]

This mini series was AWESOME!!! I sooo wish more people would do a series like this. Thank you so much!!!

[@sparklypinkleopard26]

I LOVE that you do closeup shots when you are doing the makeup look!! :)

[@berniemat5829]

I looooooved this!!! Thank you. I'm starting a new internship in the heart of manhattan and I need to look my best! This comes in so handy

[@marciinnerhofer9811]

You are so amazing...fabulous with makeup! And your sweet, bubbly, genuine personality shines through in every video. You are an absolute joy to watch! Thank you!

[@justbeingsharayah9448]

You're awesome for doing all these looks for just one video instead of letting us wait everyday for a week for one look. :) thanks so much! Very useful and helpful for days when you have no idea what to do. :)

[@Tammym83213]

Even though I'm lucky enough to not have to go to work on a daily basis, I love all of these for just a simple everyday look. They all look AWESOME on you!!!

[@p0kethepenguin]

The 5 days makeup idea is brilliant as well as the styles Marlena ! I wish to know how you styled your hair for the Thursday look and how you hid the extensions.

[@melfoldi]

I loved this video!! Thank you for being a grown woman who aims videos at other adult women! I so appreciate a beauty guru who I can relate to. Thanks, Marlena!

[@karinhall438]

Awesome tutorial! I always struggle to vary my looks for work especially as I'm time poor in the mornings. I'm going to try some of these looks. Thanks again!

[@colleenshirley66]

I LOVE the ombre lip instructions, super easy! I'm going to try it tomorrow!!

[@MylissaMahealani]

I love all the looks, but wow Thursday's look really made your brown eyes POP! The purple against the brown is so simple, yet soooo gorgeous!

[@MsJessyNola]

Love how u zoom in on the tutorial we can see precisely what u do!love this video!

[@MzQueenMcD]

I loved the Thursday and Friday looks! Beautiful eyeshadows and pigments!

[@theporcelainthread6684]

Love series like these. Feel free to do one every season! :)

[@Kia12390]

Thank you so much for this video! I wanted to start wearing makeup to work but wasn't sure how to go about it. These looks let me switch it up and add a nice pop without going over the top. Can't wait to try them out on Monday!

[@F4evrsoon]

I love these, Marlena! I work at the DMV AND live in Colorado, and I tend to feel better when I can take the time to do more with my makeup even though those two places may not scream "glamour". Feels like playing dress-up. :) I end up feeling more confident at work, too. My fave is Monday's look. I adore a bit of shimmer. Thanks for these ideas!

[@butckayd]

This is one of my favorite videos ever. So many great ideas for make up and hair! Thanks Marlena!

[@marinagamby]

Thanks for all the suggestions Marlena! I'm always stuck on what eye looks to do for work so I usually just stick with a more neutral look. Now I have 5 new looks to try out! :D

[@DeeDee4always]

Love this! Can you do this using the "in" colors for 2015?

[@b2ksflyhoney]

Whoa! You look amazing on Friday! That white with gold jewelry looks sooo good on you and of course the makeup is lovely!

[@marciab6097]

ALL OF THESE LOOKS ARE PERFECT FOR ANY OFFICE ENVIRONMENT, GREAT JOB!!

[@MyNerdyHome]

All of these looks are stunning, and u know I'm gonna try them ALL!!

[@88kayleigh]

Love the variety of these looks! Especially like the Tuesday smudgy eyeliner look! My eyelids have become extremely sensitive to eyeshadow in the past year, so I have to make the days I wear shadow few and far between to keep from aggravating them. I've started to become a lot more adventurous with my liner, and my lip products, since then! Thanks for the awesome video!

[@careyellen]

This was great Marlena! Thanks so much. All the looks are perfect, not overboard nor boring.

[@77caroly]

All your videos always teach us something, thank you for thinking about this one its so hard sometimes to find the right every day look! You are so pretty love your smile.

[@tnicole6034]

I love the last look, It's defiantly my fav! Looks very pretty on you

[@bellonjm07]

I love it every time you do tutorials with your line!! LOVE! Please please please keep doing these! I read comments that bash you for doing so, but I think it's GREAT!!

[@foo8lover]

The blouse you wear on Friday is so pretty !!!

[@rebeca8413]

Hi Marlena!!!! I used to live in New york and I followed you since you made a make up like Jennifer Lopez like 6 years ago; Well life have change and I moved to Chile , Thanks to your good service a can buy your products. And you are more than welcome to visit the south.

[@fakexpearls]

I loved the green eye look. I didn't know what to do today and that was a brilliant option.

[@barbaraangele8615]

WOW! These were all GREAT looks!! I love the way you have so many creative ideas to try and showing the eyes with the lips to go along with the look is perfect!! Also providing the brands and the colors as you apply them is so helpful.

[@jennifermckane2556]

Beautiful and easy looks Marlena! Can't wait to go back to work and use these looks. Definitely makes me feel better knowing my make up looks good, I think the purple smoked lower lash is going to be a favourite as well as the green liner!! X

[@HappywifeTaylor]

I love all the looks. Especially Friday. Great video.

[@pamanderson6132]

Once again, absolutely beautiful and looks anyone can pull off. Thanks so much for helping us to feel pretty!

[@ericaf2024]

Marlena, you make eye looks so easy!! You are beautiful and very talented!!

[@LindsayDoesBeauty]

Every look is so different and unique! I love Friday's look soo much!!!

[@forthefirsttime1]

Marlena! Can you show us more conservative makeup looks for work? Love the more creative looks, but I don't think I'd be able to rock them where I work!

[@tinamiah4541]

Omgg! This was absoloutly brilliant!! My godd! You are totally awesomeeee!!! Love yyyyouuuuu!!!! Especially the last one!!! Actually love all of themm!! You make it look sooo easy!! Xxxx

[@MarlenaStell]

This video was so helpful, thank you! I love all the looks, especially Wednesday! Love how you always give ideas for people with lighter features as well.

[@hydroponicllove]

What a great idea for a video. Now THIS is something that us ladies can use - I have gotten over seen the 385736th "beachy look" or "summer essential" videos lately. Thanks for a great, useful tutorial!

[@Cordez26]

Oh I love the Monday and Friday look. Marlena, can you please do a video on recommending your makeup geek eye shadows for olive Indian skin.

[@aranza1221]

All the looks are great but I love Thursday and Friday the most!!! Great Job!

[@lidispacheco5912]

Great video! Def gave me some ideas for the work week. Is there any way in the future you can mention some tips for hooded eyes? It would really help me. Thanks Marlena!

[@AC-qo8oq]

This was very helpful. I think I'll do the Monday and Friday look. I work in a very corporate setting and I'm unsure if these looks would be appropriate. Sigh

[@paramingirl8451]

Hello Makeup Geek thanks so much for doing the work video again. I get into the same look everyday rut often. But these will get me going again I love Thursday and Friday the most. I love you eye shadows so much, the world needs more Marlenas (Giving of themselves, hard working and dedicated) I can't wait to see your products in stores! YOU Go girl!

[@sophiechambon3484]

My favorite is your Tuesday look! Super cute! I just ordered a couple of your brushes and I'm super excited for them to come in. I love that your shipping prices are super reasonable. It makes me feel more justified ordering from makeup geek.

[@hope2nou95]

I wish your shadows were in stores. I have seen some awesome swatches but would love to see them live. Do you ever plan on opening a makeup geek or carrying your shadows somewhere? Your prices are amazing.
