- Eyebrows are the (bleep) of the face, really.
If they're not good, then all your makeup is just not good.

Hi, my name's Marna Michele
and you guys are gonna get ready with me.
It might be a little different than what you're used to
because I have arthrogryposis.
Basically I have a lack of muscle and a stiffness of joints.
So I do have a rough time getting dressed,
or putting on my makeup, or brushing my hair.
But I've just adapted and I've figured out
how to do it for myself.
Instead of a primer I use a moisturizer.
This is a Clinique moisturizer.
You can see that I'm lifting my arms
differently than the average person.
I lift my right arm with my left arm.
I can't do it the other way around.
SO I unscrew that, and again
my hands are a little stiff in the joints
so it's a little hard to unscrew some things
and I definitely have to pay attention to that
when I go and I buy my makeup.
So I just apply this under my eyes
and then a little line on my nose,
you know, the whole Kardashian thing.
I love makeup.
This is Sephora, they make a spray freaking can of makeup.
I'm gonna actually spray this onto my face.
And I might get it in my hair
so don't judge me if I do.
Then I just kind of rub it in.
Doing my makeup is honestly like a workout
because I'm using every muscle I have to lift my arms.
See, I use my head sometimes
and I just hold the brush still.
And it's kind of like a dance.
Then next thing that I use is
I do my own version of contour.
Which, I call it non-tour because it's not contour.
It's just a lot of bronzer.
This is called Master Hi-Light by Maybe It's Maybelline.
I do a lot because I'm gonna later blend this all in.
I do a lot.
So the next thing I do is
I take my Bare Minerals matte powder
and I just put that all over my face.
Then next thing I do is I take
the best thing again made ever for disabled people.
This is blush in a bottle from Sephora.
I definitely need a countertop
because you have to shake this
and I can't do this movement
comfortably without a counter under my arm.
But if I don't have a counter here
I do lift my arm like this and then I shake it like this.
But it's a little more tiresome
and I don't really prefer doing it that way.
I just spray it and it's gonna make a dot.
And i just kind of rub that into the apple of my cheek
there you go, I'm a little plum berry.
I don't know what that means.
This is the same thing I used before,
Maybelline, and I just go into the crevices of the eyes.
And I definitely just move the brush like a rainbow.
And then, this is what people laugh at me for doing,
I go under the eye.
When I get to the left eye, it's a little harder
because I'm reaching.
So I have to put both elbows on the counter
and I lean in and I kind of go over the rainbow
and I just kind of move my head more.
So the left side's definitely harder than the right side
but I think I do a pretty darn good job.
So next I'm gonna be doing my eyebrows
which is the hardest part next to eyeliner,
especially for me.
So I use the Anastasia, or Anastasia, which everybody uses.
That's why I do my makeup in the sink
because no matter what I drop, it's just there.
I am gonna make every makeup artist so mad right now.
Because I put so much of this on here.
And then I pray to the eyebrow gods,
let me do good job.
And I take my hand and I rest it on my left hand
and then I have to tilt.
And it looks like it's gonna be so much,
and it's 'cause it is.
I wish I knew how to do this when I was in high school
because Marna did not know how to do makeup in high school.
She had big brows, caterpillar brows I'll tell ya.
And I kind of just draw on like, fake hairs, and I blend
so it looks like I have eyebrows here.
I just gotta do a quick shoutout to my father right now
who gave me the weirdest eyebrows.
They're shaped like little caterpillar rainbows.
And I just like go across,
and does it really ever match? No.
But do I act like it does? Yes.
I'm gonna name you Susan.
You look good Susan, you look good.
And there you go, Marna's got brows now.
They're more like cousins rather than twins
but I mean, Susan and Jeff look real good.
This is eyeliner and it's yellow.
I bought it because I was doing a photoshoot
and the woman told me be colorful.
And I wear a lot of black, and I'm like,
okay I'll be colorful with my yellow eyeliner.
Who am I? Marna.
And I love yellow eyeliner now, it's my best friend.
And I just kind of swiftly apply it.
Look at that.
Oh man, I just, I feel so cute.
Fierce Flicks.
I got this in my Ipsy bag.
I love eyeliner pens.
This one's really hard for me to open too, not gonna lie.
You know what?
We're gonna get real handicapped with this guys.
I'm gonna be vulnerable for you,
you wanna know how I'm gonna open this?
Okay, we're gonna do both hands.
I just can't do it.
Sweaty hands, gonna brush them off.
And then.
I did it!
We got this open.
And then I just swoop.
It's a little bigger than I wanted it to be.
So now I just got to commit to the size.
Get a little thicker.
And you just got to be brave.
I take the Great Lash Mascara and I definitely pride myself
on being one of those people
who just doesn't have to go, oh my god.
I'm definitely excited that I know how to do makeup now.
And it's not perfect, it's never gonna be perfect.
But if I look in a mirror and I feel like I look gorgeous,
I'm fine with it.
I take my favorite in the world lipstick,
the logo is gone.
Frick Frack, Frick N' Frack, that's what it's called,
Frick N' Frack.
I like to do the inside of my lip first.
And then I go to the corner
and I swoop down.
So I'm just gonna blend one more time
after I apply all the eyeliner
and the lipstick and stuff like that.
I think it looks pretty good
and then I apply my favorite, highlighter.
This is by Urban Decay, yeah.
Naked.
Like my motto with everything else,
I don't care what people say,
I'm gonna wear a ton of it.
I pat it on, oh look at that glow though.
And I do this side.
Next I'm gonna do my hair.
So I brush it all forward.
I can't lift my arms up, obviously,
so curling my hair, I do it very different.
I use this little guy.
It's so old, it's a Conair Instant
and it's still got the clamp.
And I just kind of grab a piece of hair with the clamp
and oops, and I turn it,
and I kind of just hope for the best, really, honestly.
And I have to do this a couple times.
I just grab big pieces
and it's never gonna be a perfect curl.
I kind of brush it here first
and then I get on the top of my head
and I brush it all through
because the back is definitely some place I can't curl it
and I try to find like that cute curl to show.
And I schuge it up.
I feel so pretty.
I feel like this is my look,
people say oh you've got the Marilyn Monroe hair,
how do you do it?
And I'm like, I have no idea how I do it.
But I just showed you guys.
That is me and my morning routine
of makeup and hair and I hope you guys like
what I did, 'cause I love it.
Next I'm gonna show you guys my wardrobe
and how I put on some pieces of clothing.
Okay guys, so we're in my closet.
I wear a lot of dresses, loose fitting stuff.
I like high waist jeans or leggings, that's my jam.
A nice crop top, oh my god I love crop tops.
And flannel, I really like flannels.
I am only four foot,
being in a wheelchair it's a little different
to wear clothes that are on trend.
And sometimes I have to like, really modify
the clothing myself.
So there's a safety pin up here
and it's in the neckline of the shirt.
So I do it for a lot of the collars.
So my mom suggested I cut a slit up the back.
And what that does is it loosens the whole tummy area
but it's still relatively tight up on the bosom.
So you're still feelin' feminine
but also feeling super comfy.
And then you have this cute little,
like peekaboo in the back.
Pregnancy jeans are nothing to be ashamed of.
Why do you only have to wear them when you're pregnant?
Jeans dig into the sides of you.
And with this little extra piece that stretches
for the pregnant belly it makes it a lot easier
and a lot more comfortable.
My feet are very small so high heels
and wedges don't come in my size.
So to feel like more adult and chic
I'll put on like a nice cute ankle boot.
And I can get those like anywhere.
Like they make really cute kids ankle boots nowadays.
So I have three of my favorites right here.
I have this really cute soda shoe.
And it's open on the sides, it's got the cute buckle,
the cute heel, which again I feel super adult.
Normally when I put my jacket on
I make sure not to have lipstick on, but that's okay.
So what I do is I bend down
and I bite the collar of the jacket.
And it's in my mouth, and then I find the hole,
and I get it in, there's one hand.
And I kind of just throw it.
And I get it hooked on the back of my chair.
And then I grab that, and then
I kind of just wiggle into it.
And I make funny movements.
And I do this in public.
So I know that you saw a lot of things
done differently today
and I hope that it will make you want to try out
putting your makeup on different
or brushing your hair different
or putting on a jacket differently
because maybe you'll find the way it works for you
'cause I found a way it works for me.
