VERY helpful! thank you for being honest! Alot of videos i see are just people trying to show off their super expensive high quality brushes which in reality you dont need! theres like only 7-10 brushes that you actually need! and in other videos theyre coming out with like a 32 piece set! like wtf man aint no body got time for that! Thank you so much this video rocks
Lol

This is so helpful especially for a beginner like myself. Its kinda annoying that most makeup products are sold with the assumption that consumers already know exactly what they're doing but many people, such as myself, are just starting up and dont know what they're doing. Im sure this had helped so many others like me, thank you so much
This video was very helpful. Not so much in the compare and contrast portion but the uses of each brush. I love makeup and I just bought myself my first brush set. However, there was too many brushes I didn't know the purpose for all of them. Now I do. Thank you.
Same here haha
Omg Marlena, this video cannot have come in a better time. I was just about to head over to MAC and purchase some brushes for the first time and the only brush I've seen you swear by is the 217, now I know what brushes would be best for me. Thank you, thank you!
Thank you for this video. It helped me understand what each brush is for. There are so many out there, it's easy to get confused.
I just got my first makeup brush kit, so this really helped! I've been using the brushes for whatever I want with not-so-good results, so it helps to hear the reasons to use soft and stiff brushes and the sizes and such. Thanks!
This video was SO helpful!!!!
Thank you so much, that was by far the BEST make-up brush vid I've ever seen. I appreciate how you explained how each brush works, and your honest review on what brush was best.
ALL MY BRUSHES LOOK THE SAME TO ME!
If your trying to figure out which is which, look at the shape of the brush, how hard the bristles are, and the size. That should help. Some brushes have a very subtle difference. I had problems at first too
Lmao my exact thought
Trus me
I love you so so so much
+Chyna Doll sameeeeeee
Thanks so much Marlena, I appreciate you taking the time to explain these brushes. I have several brushes, but they aren't getting the job done because I didn't realize that some needed to be soft and some stiff. Makes sense. Thanks again
I loved this video it helped me understand life a bit more lol
I love the fact that you are honest and try to help us save money. And you seem like a kind hearted sincere person. Thank you!!!!!!!!
Wow, its like u taught me how to read! All those videos where girls use those brushes assuming that everybody knows them all, really frustrated me! Thnx alot. greetings from Egypt:)
i lovvvee how she's really honest and not promoting her brand! :D
I've been using a paint brush as a blending brush
You have no idea how helpful this was for me!! I've been having so much trouble deciding which brushes I really need. Thank you!!!
why is makeup so confusing
precisely :c
agree
so clever PS
ikr
right? there are sooo many choices. :c much respect to makeup artists who make this their careers etc.
sweety you are truly one of my top best most watched and loved youtube gurus. There are thousands of makeup gurus here on youtube, u are in the top 5 best. Thank you for your honesty and for taking the time to make these great and informative videos for us, I really appreciate it. Yes I am a makeup geek too and lately a good quality brushes collector..lol I wish you all the best and lots of success.
Thank you for comparison brushes!! It was very helpful!!
Great tips as usual. That makes sense to that the stiffer the brush the more color it packs on. Thank you.
I like her! Very informative video and she was honest.
This was sooo helpful! I was looking for a basic bush tutorial about a year ago; and though I found many, none of them were as concise and informative as yours. Good job!
Just starting with makeup but I loved the video. Thank you so.... So,so,so helpful.
I agree!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I was just at the MAC store & I couldn't bring my self to spend $33 on 1 brush since I'm a stay at home mom who just wants to look my best & not a pro. Thank you for taking the time to give honest opinions about all the brushes & for giving alternatives that are more affordable!! :)
BTW I am completely in love with SONIA KASHUK brushes! alot more affordable than MAC and amazing quality!
This is by far and away the best makeup brush tutorial I've seen. I've watched many in the last few weeks too. Your's is honest, helpful, and filled with multi-use tips. i've already saved the website so i can purchase brushes. Wanted to say too, I love, love the Beauty Blender. I have two, and use 1 damp to stipple and 1 dry, to roll out any harsh blush/bronzer lines. the pointed end gets right under eye and around the nose. OMG, I sound like a commercial:)Anyway, THANK YOU!
Great video, do you still stand by these brushes in 2015
thanks for the video, im a beginner & love how you show the brushes & a quick way on how they work!
Seriously , why is this so confusing ?! I am studying Engineering and I find this more complicated than physics >
Thank you SO MUCH! I'm not a makeup artist, but I would like to use makeup more often. I have a couple of brushes, but never knew if I was using them for the right thing. No one in my family wears makeup like that but me, so they wouldn't be able to help. I'm glad that I found this video. This was supremely helpful, and I'm going to look out for more of your videos :)
She looks like Isobel from vampire diaries 😂 But this video really helped !
ikr
She does
Thanks for posting this. It helps me to break out of my routine watching your tutorials. You are inspiring.
I wanna be a drag queen and this is a fabulous and very helpful video! Thanks! :)
wow, love that video. I'm not a makeup artist or trying to be one, but i never knew what brushes to use and why there were so many. Thank you so much for clarifying this for me. Now I will know what brushes to buy.
I'm still lost. LoL
Same
p interest is really helpful, it has a photo of mostly all the eye brushes and their uses
pinterest
i know me too
Vicky Yen me 2.. lol.
I was clueless in which type of brushes are used for what and I'm glad I came across this video. Now all I need is brushes and conveniently you sell some so you will definately be seeing me often
OMG, how did you know I have been spending so much time researching brushes and depating on what to buy? Thanks for this.
You Angel, straight to the point, no faffing, i like it lol i'm 31 and never been shown how to apply any kind of make up, am looking forward to having a play now and checking out your web site, thank you xxx
It's not a new video but it's probably the most helpful video I found talking about brushes! I really love your videos!
This was so helpful! I've just bought my first make-up brush set and I didn't know where to begin so thanks for your help!
Great video! I've been wondering what all the brushes are for and this helped alot! I really appreciate how honest you were!! Thanks
Thank you! This was so helpful! I'm teaching myself how to be a makeup artist and hoping I great my student loan to go to school so yes this was very informative! Thank you!
its GREAT that all the makeup that you used in the ROOTBEER inspired video can be bought in YOUR ONLINE STORE as a set. that is so INGENIOUS ;)
no guessing what brands & colours you have used or wasting time in looking & finding the makeup in various stores. in one click anyone can have all of products at their fingertips to create the look
Can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a tutorial on your eye look? I'm so in love with it!
You're timing on this video is amazing! I have been shopping around for what brushes to buy and this helped a lot. Thanks love!
The angled eye liner brush from Smashbox is really nice too.
I need the #109 and the #188. I think I am well equipped with eye brushes. Thanks this was so helpful !!
Thank you so much! this video helped me to know what many of my eyebrushes where because many did not have labels and It was hard for me to get a perfect eye without using the correct utensils perse. I labeled my brushes and put small notes underneath to know what they are used for so that they will help me bring out that perfect eye in the future! :)
i love the look on your eyes, so simple but so flattering!
This is the video I've been waiting for my whole life...or at least since I started wearing makeup. Thank you so much for making this! And I love your hair! :)
I am not new to make-up at all, but this still helped tons! And you look beautiful as always,my dear!
That was actually really helpful! I had no idea what the difference was between any of my brushes that I buy but now I know! I'll definitely make sure to buy more
Thank you so much... In the process of becoming a makeup artist. I took 4 pages of notes! Bless you!
Love how honest you are!
i swear when i watch your videos you make me HAPPPY EACH TIME :) I LOVE YOUUU
Always honest and so lovely.
Thanks for the info! I have the majority of the brushes. I love your online store and addicted!! I like the idea of trying out products before spending the money on them and the brushes I have purchased on the site are great!
thanks so much for talking us through this step-by step, im just starting out with make-up and i cant tell you how much this vid has helped! many thanks xx
i LOVE makeup and ive been doing it (on myself) for years. i must say that its been a lot of trial and error finding what works for me. thank you SOOO much for this vid.very informative. THIMBS UP
Excellent video! You're very well spoken, which makes watching your videos a joy. I'm always impressed by your videos!!
It's 2016 and this video just saved my life !
Thank you !!!! Love you
great video... thank you so much. You're so well spoken, articulate and love your make up...
I'm so glad I found this video. I'm so new at all this make up stuff. I don't know what each brush does and how to use them. Thank you for giving us a quick lesson. I just started collecting eyeshadow pallets but some of them don't come with brushes so I need to buy them separately. :)
Oh my gosh. So helpful! Thank you!! I just got (very cheap! Not name brand) a 32 piece set from Amazon & they don't have the names printed on the brush, so this really helped me! (It's 32 pieces because they give you more then one of the same brush, which is so handy just incase one is too dirty!)
Good morning. I'm watching, listening & learning more. Of the foundation brushes, Sedona Lace has a flat stipple brush similar to the Beauty Geek and it's the FB07 which I'm in love with. It came with the Vortex Set.
Great tips brushes. I use the 109 for a highlighter brush since I don't contour. I think you could use it for both.
But for the powder puff thing, although those work effectively, they aren't the most hygenic way to put powder on your face. They pick up also the oils and other things on your face. You can't clean them off either. So you have to keep buying new ones.
I suggest just getting a larger fluffy powder brush that you can clean off. Those powder puffs are going to add up!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate this tutorial!!! Thank you sooooo very much!!!
I love this video! I have been looking around on all kinds of sites and online stores searching for the right brushes/ brush sets... this has helped me narrow my search a great deal!! thank you so much :D
i know i've said this a million times lol but i'm sooo excited for your makeup artist series!!! and thanks for this vid, i made a list of the stuff i need to get lol. the only brushes i have right now are flat stiff, soft dome, and contour lol
Thanks, I'm new to makeup,I bought a brush set with no clue on how to use them,now I get it!!! Thanks
Nice video.I have almost all of these brushes and I wana become a make up artist but I dun know where to start.I love you for using NYX products as I absolutely adore them.
I've been searching for a good tutorial on brushes. Great video! Thank you!
I SUPER DUPER LOOOVE YOU! OMG because of you I want to start wearing makeup and I NEVER liked it before but you make it look so much fun and you're simply amazing. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! :)
Love how you explained the brushes!
I have been dying for an informative video like this, thanks so much!
So awesome!!!! I've picked up a couple ideas from this video on different uses for brushes! Great job!
PLEASE do a tutorial on the makeup you have on! It's gorgeous!
Thank you so much for making this video! I was a bit lost with the whole brushes thing but you really helped me!
Thank you for posting this video for us beginners. You are absolutely adorable! I agree with the posting below: can you post one with the eyeshadow you have on. Or at least provide the color names in the link.
thanks for sharing all your knowledge on make up brushes. I bought a kit of make up brushes but did not know what each one was for.
My boyfriend just walked by and I told him I was doing my favorite activity on the computer-watching beauty gurus! He looked at your video and said you were really, really pretty!! :) I said, duh! That's why I watch her videos and I love her makeup techniques!
Wow!!! You look amazing!!! Your eyes are gorgeous! Do you have a tutorial on this look? Thanks!
This was very helpful thank you. I never really that much into make up until now. Not having girl friends this helps me understand which one's to get and what to use them for. Thanks so much.
PLEASE do a tutorial on this look! you are so gorgeous and such a strong woman you are such an inspiration to all of us! God bless you and many blessings to you for all your hard work :) love you!
I am so thankful you did this video!! I've always wanted to know what each brush was for exactly!! (:
Just bought the bh cosmetics brush set and it has pretty much all of these and the set was a very reasonable price!
thank you so much for this. brushes are very overwhelming and this helped me feel more confident when it comes to buying them.
never know tht each different brush has such specific uses. Love your video and will invest in more eye brushes, hope i can find that egg too u intro at the end
Can you do makeup tutorial on the colors you wore in this video? Its so pretty and I'd love to try this look!
Now this is a video a beauty guru would do! You are teaching us! Thank you
It helps a lot especially to those who were just getting started including me. Demn! It was horrible not knowing what you would use for this, for that. Thanks a lot!
great video! You are such a professional! Very clear explanations - thank you! I absolutely love your eyes in this video!
thanks so much!!! it helped me a lot on deciding what brushes i really need
Thank you so much, this really helps me. I just really start wearing makeup and I was wondering about brushes, so helpful thank you.
Great video! I like how you broke down each section and added pictures.. thanks for the tutorial
i've had my MAC brushes for over 3 years now and they are still in very good shape. They are really worth the price.
Wow this really helps me out, i never knew which brush i should def use... Thanks x
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am trying to learn how to wear makeup and this 101 is just what I was looking for. I have brushes that I don't know what they are used for.
i was thinking about this during your video...have you done a video on how you do your eyebrows??? i can't remember! if not, can you do one??? your eyebrows are always so perfect!
Thank you so much, you are so informative in helping me with all of my questions on beauty needs- must haves and so on. You are soooo gorgeous and I love your videos.
