i so SO appreciate how you put in the effort to put subtitles in so we have them right as the video is uploaded!! im hard of hearing and have auditory processing issues so sometimes i need subtitles or i can't understand what people are saying. you have no idea how much HOH people appreciate things like this. thank you for the effort you put into your videos Robert 💗💕

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so much! I learnt about how important they are from basically being ignorant about the quality of the KZbin auto subs! I’m so happy they help ! 🖤🖤

[@RevaSharkbait]

Yes! I always try to include subtitles in my tiktoks/IG stories, and add alt text when I share images on Twitter. It doesn't take that long and it makes a difference. It's the least I can do for people that are hard of hearing :3

I also hugely appreciate the subtitles!! Plus the fact that your videos are gluten free cos of your dad xoxo

[@salmaalmanza4724]

I enjoy videos like this so much. I'm sorry to hear that "Helping My Subscribers with their Makeup" didn't do so well, it was one of my favorite series. Mostly because I trust your opinion so much because as a new makeup user, I'm so scared of doing anuthing wrong.

[@theeellebee]

We all need you as a bestie! You have helped me up the makeup game

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you 🥹🖤🖤🖤

[@KaylaSmith953]

You can tell by how thorough he is and how he’s explaining everything how much Robert truly *truly* wants to help us. So sweet🥺

[@Ginaarceci]

Robert, I always tune in to watch your videos as you're one of the few influencers on this platform that actually teaches without making anyone feel stupid or incompetent. You've helped me in a multitude of ways when it comes to makeup application and what products go best with other's. I can't thank you enough! 💕 Not only are your videos educational, your sense of humor is unmatched.

[@v_eye_let_17]

[@mojyoqueen350]

For pale people I recomend warm grey eyeshadow instead of bronzer. I don't contour my face, because I don't like contouring [but I tried it and it worked], but when I'm using a light warm grey on my eyes it looks almost like a neutral light/ transition brown on a more regular skintone.

[@poisonivystar]

At the age of 42 I truly appreciate and understand how very important skin prep is. Always always hydrate your skin and show it love. Love your videos and advice. Thank you! Happy Holidays darling.

[@ToniGNLEover60]

YES! Lots more of THIS! I’ve missed your TUTORIALS! ❤

Can I just say how gorgeous you look Robert?!! Your hair/facial hair and makeup look amazing. The total look is so cohesive. And thank you for such great tips!

[@Sarah-ic4yu]

I would love to see you do a video creating different eye shapes just using eye makeup!

[@madeline9668]

Prepping skin the night before applying makeup helped me a lot! Before, even if I was using moisturizer and serum, no matter what technique I was doing, some areas of my face were very, very patchy. And now, all I do is focus on hydrating products at night, even my acne has improved A LOT!

[@brittanie777]

The black and white with the purple makeup is giving glamorous Beetlejuice, and I love it 🤩

[@nimywimy1991]

Even before watching this vid I wanna say - I started putting eyeshadow on my lower lash line because of you Robert and the way it has transformeddd how my eyes look is crazy!! Can’t thank you enough for that!

[@ChrissyGrace2611]

For the person that said bronzer turns orange on their skin… You could also try a contour as your bronzer that is neutral. I don’t like the orange tones of a lot of browsers so I often put a contour down and if I want to warm it up at all I had a little blush to it or bronzer on top. There are so many tricks you can try! Robert gives the best advice, and I could listen to him all day!

[@keajahlaws8546]

As an aspiring makeup artist this is better than the information they give us in school 🥴

[@alexmiles40]

"Pitch and depth" is why you're the PRO MUA and we aren't. Thanks for educating us Robert. Kisses and Love!

[@sarahwest5814]

I love it when you do these type of videos. You have a wealth of information and experience while explaining it in an approachable way. Have you ever considered teaching online seminars or even a compensated short series of longer videos? I'm sure many of us would love to support you monetarily for your expertise. I just adore you and love your approach to teaching in an informative, objective, friendly but not offensive or intimidating way. I am 39 and we did not have such accessibility to internet content such as this when I was a teen/ young adult and just learning about makeup theory and artistry. I appreciate you so much and please keep us posted if something like this blooms in the future.

[@joybritton2284]

I would absolutely pay for something like that! Great idea!

[@sarahwest5814]

Yes, I would too. Robert is amazing and informative in a way that I very much appreciate. I love learning makeup theory and techniques without being talked down to. Robert is the full package in the beauty space and he will achieve continued growth, support and respect with whatever he decides is right for him. Even something low-key like a youtube membership with a monthly indepth tutorial would even be great and I think, well received. No pressure though Robert, I don't want to overstep my bounds. I just highly value your content and would love to support your continued success.

[@MarleneYCM]

Hi Robert-I’m liking and watching your channel more & more lately. I just watched a Q&A from 2yrs ago & it truly felt like one of the many medical videos I watch. I’m a nurse in Massachusetts (US), in grad school, and watch so many lectures etc. I learned so many things I never knew about from your video! Answering to those questions was individualized but covered so many common issues really-and the science of makeup came through quite clearly. Makeup Artist, PhD you are!

[@SheilaMarguerite]

You're such an amazing teacher, thank you again for sharing your knowledge so freely! 🖤🖤🖤

[@mt1745]

[@dawnrenee7280]

I can’t say it enough, the world needs more Robert! Love you!💜🖤💜🖤💜

[@chamorrojen1905]

Great video and advice Robert! Thanks for all the practical info on skin prep. I wait 10min between moisturizer, adding spf and then primer/foundation. Basically, I wait for everything to be absorbed, but I also touch up places I over applied (i love my moisturizer lol, it happens). I brush teeth, mascara, eyebrows and wash my beauty sponge while I wait for that time to pass. No time wasted! It took me sooo long to figure this out. Hope this is helpful to someone out there who struggled like I did for too long!😘

[@Patti-1962]

Thank you for doing this video.... I hope it does well! I remember in the 80's, the concealer from the brand Mary Kay was yellow. It was designed to wear under foundation, so it did a beautiful job of brightening the face. I have also stopped using dark bronzer, and if I need to contour (glam looks), I ue a powder that is just a few shades deeper than my skin. That way I get the "shadow" effect, but my skin doesn't look muddy!!🖤

[@DamarisR415]

Sir!!! This eye look is stunning!!! 💜💜💜

[@arielm1562]

🥰 I use eyeshadow primer as a concealer sometimes too! I guess some things are instinctive. Thank you Robert, these are my favorite type of videos. I need to see you do a massive keep it, fix it, dump it video for the end of the year 🙏

[@angelicabasque1749]

Love watching these videos, even if I've already heard some of the advice from your earlier ones. They've gotten me to slow down and pay attention to how products are interacting with my skin instead of just slapping things onto my face and hoping it all works together.

[@ElenKarin]

You’re so nice for doing this!

[@TyraUK]

A good trick for anyone who finds a regular 'bronzer' shade doesn't suit them - try a face powder just a couple of shades darker than your skintone. I really like the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural powder, it has a really nice finish and they have tons of shades so you should find something that will suit you. Also as its a face powder it's super easy to blend and a really foolproof way to bronze or contour!

[@joybritton2284]

I need to try that as I happen to have some powder foundations that are too dark for me. Since they are foundations, they aren't so orange like bronzer can be. Great idea!

[@DinkyInky2]

I have issues with powder foundation(foundation in general really) turning super orange on me. It's like the industry forgot cool-toned olive complexions exist, as all my go-tos discontinued my shades. I have been on the hunt for new foundations since Shiseido launched SynchroSkin and permanently changed the shade range, which is sad when one used a shade for 30 years.

[@aimeeduff8000]

@@DinkyInky2 I highly recommend trying the LA Girl Cosmetics Pro Conceal Mixing Pigments, they’re like a colored foundation that comes in the shades white, orange, blue and yellow, and you can mix the blue and yellow together to make green and then mix with your foundations to help change the undertone. They don’t change the formula of whatever foundation you’re using and they seriously help soooo much! They’re a lifesaver for makeup artists or people who have a hard time finding their undertones in a foundation. You do have to kind of play around and experiment to find your perfect ratio but once you find it, it’s such a game changer! And honestly it’s kinda fun playing cosmetic chemist and mixing up new foundation shades and undertones lol! Hope this helps! 💕

[@DinkyInky2]

@Aimee Duff Does it work on cream/powder foundation? I rarely use liquid foundation because the shades aren't good on me/sits heavily in all the textured areas. Also, how do you turn it to a cool undertone?

[@aimeeduff8000]

@@DinkyInky2 I believe they would work with a cream to powder, I haven’t tried it personally but you could scoop out a small bit of the cream foundation and then a use a little bit of those mixing pigments. I’m tying to remember if Rose and Ben on Instagram tried the mixing pigments with a cream to powder foundation, I think she may have tested it out, I know she used them with a ton of different foundations. (She is amazing by the way, if you don’t already follow her on Instagram) and I use the blue pigment alone to cool down/neutralize a too warm or too yellow/golden undertone myself because I’m a cool/pink undertone, so I think using a little more blue than you use of the yellow and mix those together with your foundation should work. The mixing pigments are worth their weight in gold, they’ve seriously saved me from wasting so many foundations that I would buy but then the undertone would be a bit off or the shade may have been too dark and I use the white mixing pigment to lighten them. There’s a little trial and error til you kinda figure out your own perfect “formula” to help perfect your foundation shades but they’re seriously a lifesaver and a money saver! They’re about $8-$10 a bottle depending on where you get them, one of my local CVS has them in stock and some Ulta stores have them in stock and the Ulta app/online has them and then the LA Girl website, let me see if I can get you a link if it will post here for you!

[@MsDaudur]

Experiment with what you have is such a beautiful tip! I love that rather than running out and getting a new product. Just play around with it and don’t be afraid to fail, it’s just makeup, it comes off at the end of the day.

[@MrsDanville]

Thank you so much Robert for all the amazing helpful tips they have truly helped me find my confidence again. I would absolutely love a series about things like how to find your foundation shade, eye shadows that look best depending on your eye color, and how to contour depending on face shape. Maybe even what brushes to use for different parts of your face 💜

[@loriferguson6740]

Yellow concealer! You have literally solved my biggest makeup problem which has plagued me for 30 years! I’ve tried countless foundations, gree convey, green primers and nothing has worked like the old yellow cream highlighter I dug out of my stash this morning.

a few minutes in and this video is already so information dense - i love it !! i can’t believe how much i’m learning omg edit: also for folks with dry eyelid texture, i’ve found success exfoliating my eyelids very gently with a wet washcloth & following up with eye cream! softens the skin up over time & removes the scaly texture :) i personally have to exfoliate & moisturize my entire face lol

[@RevaSharkbait]

Omg YES! I absolutely don't use 'bronzer', and a lot of the time even my contour I'll look elsewhere to find the colour I need. Gotta think - shadows are not warm, they are neutral at best. You don't wanna go warm to contour because you're creating a fake shadow!

Idk if this will help you but I've used the elf tone adjusting primer and it helped me when I was dealing with redness.

[@joybritton2284]

I just took a travel size concealer on a trip that I thought might be a tad yellow for me, but since I was only using it on blemishes I thought it would be okay since I'd go over it with other products anyway. It worked great! Especially on my rosacea! Now I know why... LOL! I guess I'll be buying that shade now for redness instead of my actual skin color.

[@denacrescini1990]

There is such a HUGE difference between concealer and primer for the eyes! Thanks for taking the time to explain that!

[@onewhisper22005]

I have fair skin and I used a lightweight warm toned concealer to correct my redness because green ones were always so green I’d end up using more product to cover the green UNTIL I found one that was a VERY light minty green, almost white. It works PERFECT to hide my redness. It’s so perfect for me I can actually use it on days I don’t want to wear makeup and can just apply it to the red areas to reduce the redness in my face but it blends in so well that I don’t need to apply anything to cover it up after. If I use a warm toned concealer like I used to, I still had to go over it with a matching foundation or skin tint to even out my skin tone if that makes sense. But since I found the light minty green almost white corrector, I’ve been super happy! It comes in a stick so I thought it would be dry on me, but it isn’t drying at all and it lasts a long time too since it only takes a little amount!

[@joybritton2284]

What is the green stick? I'm always on the lookout for something good for my rosacea.

[@sazzlepopz1553]

What is the name of the stick?

[@onewhisper22005]

@@sazzlepopz1553 it’s called Repechage Hydra Medic Green Corrective Makeup Concealer Stick. I got it on Amazon for $27. It’s more pricey than I’d usually go for, but the shade is perfect, it works so well, and takes such a little and lasts me so long I don’t mind it!

I just had to comment and say a huge THANK YOU. I've learned so much when it comes to makeup from you. especially eyeshadow. I'm not a pro by any means. I went about 10 years of not caring at all about makeup. but over the last year and a half I wanted to start trying again. I remember the first time I tried the "updated" way of doing makeup, it was an absolute fail. so I didn't try again for a long time. then I found your channel. I listened to your tips and started implementing them in my own makeup routine when I felt comfortable to try again. I can now say that I can actually do a bold, sparkly, icy purple look that I LOVE and just keep going back to thanks to you. I feel more confident now to the point where people in a Facebook group asked to get an eyeshadow tutorial from me! someone that's still not 100% comfortable with makeup. so thank you. seriously. I also have a ghost story I've been thinking of sending in....just have to type it up and send it! hahaha. I love your channel and can't wait to see you hit 1 million subs! you deserve that and so much more!

I hear the subscriber with the orange bronzer. It’s like a lot of companies think because the sun is yellow, orange, and red, we want to have orange to highlight/bronze our face. No. It looks weird. I switched to cool toned bronzers. Even neutral bronzers are better than warm toned. Depending on the formula you’re looking for can determine what brand you go with. Natasha Denona has an ok powder. I prefer Shiseido’s. Danessa Myricks has a cream but I prefer Uoma Beauty’s cream. I like indie brands so I use Lethal Cosmetics. The pigmentation on all their products is serious business, but I think all of their face products are powder.
