Him saying he's never found a high end eyeshadow primer he likes made me wonder, what's his favorite primer ever? I'm gonna try to find it in his videos somewhere lol

[@a.personofficial]

I think elf putty eye primer. He loves to apply it with his finger. I bought it because of him a few weeks ago

[@arielts06]

He uses the sigma eye primer stick all the time

[@HaHaHaLMFAOtv]

He also has this website where he listed all his favourite products 😊

Gerard cosmetics clean canvas is epic! It lasts forever and comes in a few shades as well as white.

[@danielletrue1027]

IM OBSESSED IN LOVE WITH THE GUCCI BRONZER…. It could possibly be the shade which is fair, It has zero orange in it and works so well with my skin tone and is worth a repurchase and plan to do so, I’m already about halfway through LOVE IT !!!!!!

It's crazy the difference with color payoff and blendablility of the high-end shadow compared to the cheap. Amazing! Thanks for demonstrating that.

[@teletubbiestunetwister9570]

I'm thinking it's almost worth a trip across the pond to get myself to a Primark for that concealer. :P Robert, I just love your videos. They are so calming with humour and class. Keep being you!

Armani's power fabric concealer... and Chantecaille's blurring powder are both amazing! I haven't found a drugstore to beat those.

[@tranquilserenity2418]

I swear by the RMS Beauty Living Luminizer! It is 40 dollars so I would say it is high end and I love it so much because it looks like skin, not a glittery mess, etc.

[@OtheringHeights]

it lasts forEVER too 💞

[@DanielleNicoleMakeup]

Also the RMS Buriti Bronzer is one of my favorites! I have a cool undertone and it gives such a natural sunburnt sculpted look. That brand has a lot of great products.

[@muchnessmama]

I've been blown away by the Shein eye make-up and foundation I tried. Now I don't have any truly expensive stuff to test it against, mom of eight trying to survive here lol, but it's better than anything I've ever used before and so inexpensive!!

[@sandydee8003]

When you said 120 for the foundation I thought😳 NOPE. When you said with a refill, I thought 😍 absolutely👍

They also have it on ebay for a really great price, and it's the real deal 😉👌

[@msSweeTae]

A drugstore recommendation: I discovered the Holiday Skin Luminous Bronzer by Catrice today for around 4€. The reason why I bought it is, because it's not to orange or red and it's soft, but buildable and it's actually not really luminous. I think with "Luminous" they mean the velvet texture, without any chunky glitter, etc. Only at home I read it's also waterproof... I instantly covered the back of my hand with the product, held it under water for a few seconds and gently dried it. It really is waterproof! After all these years I finally found a bronzer👏

[@MoonCat33]

My favorite notification! 😁

[@juttam5215]

At the drugstore I love the Loreal fresh wear foundation. It is much better than my highend foundations 😊💕

[@nicolecheyenne7937]

It's the best foundation I've ever tried and I've tried a ton of them both very expensive and drugstore. The fresh wear foundation is the only foundation I even own now because there's no need for any others lol

[@ElizabethHoward]

That was actually really interesting! Also, thanks to you I finally tried the Shein palettes, and I kind of adore them. As someone who is by nature a cheap make up girl, they make me feel fancy. Yes, that's how low my standards are ;)

[@karolinakwasniewska4342]

I love the fact that you don’t make a huge shopping just for the sake of this particular video. I’m a very environmentally conscious person and it just bothers me so much, when I see a waisted product. I wish you could try to do some series about using this kind of not-so-good pieces. I’m pretty sure that you can give us some tips on how to apply such a stubborn bronzer etc. Have a nice day, kisses from Poland 💜

[@2992nadia]

The MAC Paint pot eyeshadow is a really good high end primer, it's not super expensive either so that's a plus

[@anothertitan5543]

I think Robert said in a previous video he used to use the Mac paint pot but overall he stopped supporting mac

[@nammyohorengekyo1111]

I follow you from Chicago, and I adore your videos. I appreciate your candidness and professionalism, as I *also* am in my 30s now and cannot afford to treat my skin badly. But to the point, I picked up a sample of Laura Mercier primer with my Sephora points because I couldn’t find a good primer for the life of me. I actually liked it. I’m not a makeup professional by any means, but I liked that a little went a long way and my shadow stayed in place all day. Thank you so much for your content. Please keep posting! XO

If you have oily eyelids, the fenty beauty eye primer will change the game! I wear it on days I’m not even wearing eye makeup to control oil.

[@justynawisniewska1213]

My favourite high end eye primer (and favourite primer in general tbh) is MAC prep and prime 24 hour eye base. Keeps my eyeshadow from creasing like nothing else.

[@christinamcginnis6338]

If anyone is looking for a great affordable liquid eyeliner that lasts and doesn't smudge and budge, I strongly recommend the Loreal flash cat eye. Just a side note. ❤

I remember that when the nyx hd powder became popular people said that it has a pretty bad flashback in photographs. Do you think it’s true or is it just because people used too much of it when they were baking?

[@bobbies1562]

Maybe it's a good idea to put everything for each side on opposite sides of the table and put a note next to them? I had the hardest time telling left from right when I was a kid. An accident, similar to what happened to your eyebrow, drummed it into me once and for all. The Viseart shadows are beautiful. Thanks for the comparisons.

[@chrissymoss514]

Eyeshadows are always better from high end brands, the pigment, blend and user experience is much, much better. I honestly think everything else is a personal "mix n match". 💗

[@mrsKrisMeijer]

I've got "drugstore" (cheaper) eyeshadows that work so much better than some of the high end shadows I own. They have much better pigment and blendability. Even some of the mac ones (not really high end but not drugstore either) I own have awful pigment and don't blend well. In the end I just think it depends on brand and finish (high end matte shadows often are better than drugstore matte shadows but in shimmers and satins drug store can also be really good)

[@SJ93622]

The primark concealer is good but the catrice pot concealer, camouflage cream, is better for a very similar price you should try it out!!
