Hey everyone! I made a mistake in editing! In the blending brushes I call the black transition brush 230 it’s 224!

[@Miss_Dis]

Would love to know your necessary eyeshadow palettes because I'm on a budget and don't want to get a shit palette by accident 😂

[@zeezeebeme3017]

Is that the large buffer brush your talking about? The first black one as ive tried to google to purchase it and it looks like a different slimmer kind of brush so confused!

[@nicoleedwards5708]

PLEASE do a guide to makeup on hooded eyelids😩 like eyeliner, cut creases, halo eyes, falsies etc. i am struggling!!

[@lilo5437]

nicole edwards yess! The struggle is real 😅

[@LittleKantBoy]

He said he was working on it about a month ago.. maybe he had to coordinate with a model with the right eye shape

[@nicoleedwards5708]

Renee S i hope it comes soon!! i only just started watching him & have already learned so much lol

[@Backtothepast2018]

Same I've hooded eyes with saggy skin lids haha woman reaching 50 soon xx ty Robert if you do a video on this x

[@robinr5337]

Yes! Don't leave us hooded eyed people hanging.

[@marelle422]

I love that when you express why a brush is needed it's never like "oh this is a really good brush". You actually explain in detail what it's good for. Also so grateful that you pointed out which ones are particularly useful or unnecessary in terms of hooded eyes. So many people go by a one size fits all type of thought process, which is super disheartening when you have hooded eyes and you use the product or brush or whatever and it just looks awful. You've inspired me to keep going and keep trying new ways to use makeup in terms of my hooded eyes 😭

[@geekyzombie]

Marianne Stockwell THAT.

[@lalimondragon7670]

Marianne Stockwell took the words out of my mouth. I don’t need to say anything else 😉✨

[@pointdexter3435]

This is the most informative video about brushes that I have watched.

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you! 🖤

[@paulsgirlACAB]

@@RobertWelsh seriously!!! Thank you!!

[@nevaehrose9319]

@@RobertWelsh im not sure what kind of eyes i have is there a possible way u could tell me and help with tips and tricks? Im just starting out in makeup world and could really help thank you so much and my daughter and i love to watch your videos all day long lol

[@avneetsingh1289]

My mum before this video: why do you have soo many eye brushes? What do you need them for?? My mum after this video: ohh, i think you need some more brushes 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@RobertWelsh]

😝😝😝😂🖤

[@kershabeaver3312]

Lol

[@TRUNDNBLING]

Omg YAAS haha!!

[@rokia072]

Istg I've never been prouder than when Robert pulled out the one good brush I own (the zoeva crease)

[@RobertWelsh]

Yessss it’s the best! 🖤🖤

[@AugustinesMommy]

Yessss. I love this! Could you also make a video about how to wash and condition and sanitize brushes? Idk if I'm ruining mine, lmfao.

[@ishikamaharana2862]

yess. that would be very interesting and helpful

[@anitalassiter4266]

Yes please!!!!

[@jewelnabq01]

Yes. For both synthetic and natural hair brushes.

[@daisyhomeorbell1522]

Yes!!

[@ashleygrant4123]

ME TOO!!! My cheaper brushes from like amazon seem like they’re better than my Morphe brushes. Morphe is the most expensive brand I have because I’m new at makeup, though. I’m looking into buying new ones but have no idea what to buy! Sigma seems so expensive 😭 but those are the most frequently raved about that I’ve seen and heard

[@Purple79Angel]

Please, please do a tutorial for super hooded eyelids like mine. I'm about to give up on eyeshadows and throw my palettes away. PLEASE!

[@tnt8106]

I like Sigma brushes. I bought a set of brushes around 7 years ago and they are still in great shape!

[@NeishaNineStarz]

Sigma brushes have great staying power I have some from 10 years ago and their still going

[@trishab.9913]

They the best brushes!👏🏾

[@caitlynnpollard5055]

God it's like you read my mind. I discovered you last night and started realizing the next thing I needed to boost my eyeshadow skills were brushes but I didn't know where to start! ♥️

[@RobertWelsh]

🖤🖤🖤

[@staceyandandymartin9901]

Thanks Robert, this is such a useful video, for beginners especially, but also for novice mua’s who have loads of brushes but aren’t 100% sure how to use some of them. It has given me some new ways of using brushes too 🙂 I can’t wait to see if you do a face brushes video next!!?? Also a brand you must try is sigma. Their brushes really are fantastic and they wash incredibly x

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so much! I will do a video for face brushes!! Yes I love sigma! Code Robert10 for 10% off 😜🖤

[@notapotato_]

I call my eye makeup brushes the flat one, the pointy floofy one, and the floofier one. I am so grateful that you're teaching me about brushes because I obviously have no idea what's going on 😂

[@buns6423]

honestly you are so amazing, all my friends used to tell that im doing my makeup wrong or i should bake or use different brushes. after finding you i realized im doing a lot of things right and all the bs my friends told me are just based on ig makeup gurus and not real makeup artists. thanks for making these vids!

[@ishikamaharana2862]

never been this fast to anything lmao. you're the best

[@RobertWelsh]

🖤🖤🖤

[@fxtmx_tz]

Omg now that's what I call a true MUA. You seem so much more professional than all these so called "make up gurus" and you actually know what you're talking about. I'm literally binge watching your videos and can't wait for more!

[@PPonciano]

this is my first day off after all the uni deadlines and ive just been binge watching your videos, and then i see you have a new one out!! yay!!

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so much! 🖤

[@anjumanprova6254]

You have no idea how many times I'm gonna rewatch this..

[@mariahdiaz9326]

THIS IS THE VIDEO I NEEDED WHEN I WAS A BEGINNER! 😭😭😭😭 YOUR TECHNIQUES HAVE CHANGED THE OUTCOME OF MY MAKEUP FOR THE BETTER! THANK YOU, THANK YOU! 💖 I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING MORE FROM YOU! 🤗

[@kccervales610]

This is so helpful, Robert. I just bought a basic eye brush set and I’m so relieved to see that your “essentials” are the ones included in the set. I would appreciate a face brush version. Thank you so much!

[@ZariDV]

No matter how much info I think I've collected about makeup, I can count on Robert to teach me something new and it's awesome.

[@kayleighkingsley6932]

I really love the format of this video, showing how to do the exact thing you’re describing is really useful!

[@rosaliedare23]

this was genuinely so helpful! i feel like it's all well and good having technique videos but if you don't know what brushes to use it doesn't really make a big difference if you're using the right technique. a face brush version of this would be very helpful! thank you so much for your videos robert!

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so much! 🖤🖤🖤

[@whitneywollman2906]

Out of all the videos I've watched to learn about what brushes are used for what, this is the most helpful and detailed one.Thank you for this!

[@miamagnolia2604]

The real hair Vs artificial hair brush is super informative, not only would you want to know how to use each brush but also knowing what products (liquid/powder) are best suited for the brush type goes hand in hand with the quality of the end look, I'm definitely going to refer to this video whenever I'm detailing🖤

[@Musiclover1276]

You have easily become one of my favorite channels to watch! You’re informative, drama-free, and have such an easy going personality. It’s to the point where I can’t miss any of your videos! Could you make a video of placement of product for different face shapes? Like I have a super round face and I’m not sure where to put my blush or bronzer exactly without making my face even more round.

[@rhi-ennendewey9417]

I don’t know how you don’t have millions of subscribers honestly

[@melanieknisely5045]

I absolutely ADORE how you nearly lose your breath describing each brush's function. THIS. This is the passion that YT has been lacking. Thank you for sharing your passion and knowledge with us. We LOVE you

[@TheEagleslover]

I love the way your voice rises when you are excited about a concept. It truly shows how committed you are to your craft. I have an eclectic group of brushes at the moment because I had a serious addiction and had to stop myself. I just love brushes.

[@shreyavidyarthi6525]

when Robert uploads lord knows I drop everything to watch it

[@RobertWelsh]

😝🖤🖤🖤

[@lizlarsson]

Thank you!! I really needed this. I feel I have all of these type of brushes and use them all wrong. I just got some Wayne Goss brushes for the face and just don't know what to do with them. If you are doing a face brush tutorial, well... I am gonna jump on that for sure!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so much! I will do!! 😝🖤

[@jownie101]

I love my MAC 217 blending brush. I've been using it for 7+ years now. I've had a few of those "unnecessary" brushes all this time and they were not used at all because I didn't know what they were for until you mentioned them. Many thanks for the helpful tips!

[@Amberle5391]

I'm so glad I found someone who wants to teach techniques etc, was feeling a bit lost with all the random grwm and reviews with no tutorials in sight for ages... keep up the good work Robert!

[@carissalainego]

Yey! 150k subscribers! Congrats. I just want to say how happy I am that you've taken youtube seriously lately(saw your vid with james). I really enjoy watching your vids. Such good vibes. 🤗🥰🖤🖤🖤

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so so much!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@Ellzy1]

I’m saving this to reference over and over again. I’m old (ish) but new to makeup, brushes et al. So yes please, a face brush explanation too please. 🌸💕🌸. Double pleases lol, BritCanaYank here, so polite haha.

[@RobertWelsh]

😂😂 I’ll make one for sure! 🖤

[@tisharnigamo3498]

Love how much knowledge and common sense you bring, not just trying to sell us something. We appreciate you!!

[@stilljustlily]

Thank you. I know you must hear that a lot but as just a regular person who just wants to look nice, these "here are the basics and here is what to do with them" type videos are so useful for me. Your work and your time are appreciated.

[@fatimaoliveira8696]

I love the way Robert talks/speaks Dude, he could do a video about windows and I would listen! Keep up the great work. You should do a video of you doing someone's makeup, Boys, girls, round face, long face whatever

[@cindywhite4017]

I have bought so many brushes and just really wondered if I needed them all. Now I know just the brushes that are necessary to get the look I'm wanting. Thank you Robert once again you have really given me great advice. Love your channel.

[@RobertWelsh]

My pleasure! Thank you so much! 🖤

[@WiFiFoFum]

Seriously the best make-up channel on KZbin. It’s saved my make-up sanity. Thanks for mentioning brushes for hooded eyes! I’m anticipating this channel will get to 1M subs in 2020

[@RobertWelsh]

Thank you so so much!! 🖤 I’ll be filming a hooded eye tutorial on Wednesday (on an actual hooded eye 😝) to post some time this month!!

[@ireallydontknow8616]

You have the BEST voice for ASMR. I passed out watching this..... twice... 😍

[@shannenp.9664]

I just bought the morphe babe faves brush set; and I have hooded eyes so this video is so appreciated 😍🥰

[@micheleandreatta1221]

I've learned so much from you. People are really starting to notice my makeup now. Thank you so much!!!

[@wednesday1899]

Wow, you are legit giving us amazing, thorough advice. I am officially in love with your channel. Thank you for all the hooded eye recs too!

[@MR-yl3pj]

I love videos like this because it helps me know how to use the brushes that I already have from buying brush kits keep them coming

[@whitneyemmons6479]

Yes! Yes! Here early!!! Love brushes they are so underrated!!!

[@BlogWhatTheFruitcake]

Yes! I have all the must-haves (in other brands, but still)! Phew! I tend to buy brush sets, so I have all sorts that I don't think I ever use, think I might use this as a guide to weed out the necessary from pointless. Thank you :D

[@marleyhill34]

I have a lot of brushes. Collected over 20 years. Lol! I'm 38. I find them all useful because when my favourites are dirty or wet I'm forced to use the other ones I love how they all give different finishes.

[@caitlynnallen1318]

I love how calm you are. It’s not like you are screaming at me to get these brushes because they are “just the best”. I like how you tell us why the brushes would be a good idea, and how to use them. When ever I watch a makeup tutorial they just say a blending brush or a fluffy brush so I am alway happy when I watch your videos that you go into more detail of what you are doing.

[@MarlieAstra]

Your channel is what "beauty gurus" are supposed to be. The entire reason anyone of them gained any popularity, except you're actually experienced, talented, and a great teacher.

[@joey-deandriehuis7054]

I want to do my cousin her wedding make up, can you do a tutorial on how you do your brides? Love from the netherlands ❤

[@roxemary]

I must admit I have multiples of the essence blending brush. I find them so versatile all around the eye, specially when in a hurry :)

[@marleyhill34]

I have Primark for when I just want something quick and blended and the Mac and morphe and real techniques are dirty. 🤣 🤣

[@roxemary]

@@marleyhill34 I have a primark retractable lip brush that is quite decent and an angle face brush that I use to blend excess blush lol

[@adang218]

Yes please!!! MORE favorite brush videos! Definitely for face/body application. I especially love how you explain the techniques you use with each one. I'm a working MUA and always love learning new techniques 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@dianepollard9735]

Robert: I just wanted to tell you how much I love your tutorials. I have learned so much. I used to get a lot of "cakiness"( not sure about the spelling) under my eyes. I don't use foundation under the eyes anymore and use your concealer method and I cant even tell you how much that helped me out. I'm also obsessed with your ghost stories! thank you so much for all your help! Be blessed!

[@katfaceATX]

A friend of mine is on a trip... And found body glitter on the what should be fresh sheets at the hotel... And is currently somewhere in South America, sleeping on top of the covers because he was so creeped out... I was kidding him, (but really,) glitter lasts forever, and all it takes is one glitter-bitch and now you live with glitter, every day of your life... The glitter never leaves.

[@karlaabalo5597]

Yasssss bring the old technique of using brushes. I remember my uncle (he's gay), he's a make ip artist especially for pageants . He did my make for a pageant and he just use 4 brushes including my lip. Damn he's really good. And really knows how to do make up unlike some influencers, they just copying each other. Let's give this professional make up artist a big thumbs up!

[@lepeets]

Omg I love that you listen to your subscribers! I asked for a video like this ❤️ you’re the best

[@ShireenLPlatt]

I truly appreciate you and your approach towards makeup. What an amazing video, thank you for taking time to explain and most importantly, show how each brush works. I have most of the brushes featured here or at least the similar type but never reached for them because I have no clue what they are good for.

[@sondraann3025]

Tax returns are coming up and I always treat myself to a little something, and this year it is brushes so this video couldn't have come at a better time! You are seriously my favorite KZbinr, so glad I found you! 🖤

Thank you so much! What perfect timing for a tax return! 😝🖤

[@cheyannetaylor137]

[@sonjawilliams989]

ME TOO!!. And people putting glitter in an envelope with an invitation!..I scream

[@punkybrewster955]

So glad you did this, I have hooded eyes and still have trouble. I feel like I do one look really really good, then the rest is......not😶lol

[@marleyhill34]

I change my eye look with the seasons so I get to experiment with a lot. Yeah also watch a lot of hooded eye tutorials. Everyone has a different technique. Also tiny brushes. Currently. I'm doing neutral eye with liner. I do a very very tiny line with a MAC210 similar to the morphe 250-1 brush and a tiny flick. I also tightline and do the waterline. I do not line the bottom lash line. I just smudge a brown shadow underneath for evening or leave bare for day time.

[@LittleKantBoy]

I also have very small, partially hooded eyelids and I feel like the only thing that looks good is a matte darker color above the crease on the outer corner with a highlighting color on the inner corner and lid. Everything else kinda makes me look like a raccoon with beady little eyes :/

[@ooTheMuthaoo]

I will watch this over and over. Thank you!

[@valeriaarrieta3895]

Ommggg I’ve been wanting a video like this for sooo long

I finally understand what everybody means when they comment on a video and say "it's like you read my mind"... THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED. Been browsing eyeshadow brushes on yesstyle (since there's another sale happening right now) and just didn't understand what eyeshadow brush did what. So THANK YOU ❤

[@RobertWelsh]

Yesssss!! 🖤🖤

[@Ieat2much]

Ooh I want some Hakuhodo too! I just get overwhelmed with their website even though Hailey from JustBuyTheMakeup broke it down really well. Wish they sold them on Beautylish. They have a small crease brush that would be perfect for my small hooded eyes.

[@qt_stacy]

For robert’s viewers: That Charles fox brush that he couldn’t find details for - great dupes for that are the morphe m222, m169, or m138 (and really out of those 3, the first is my fave), but I’m not exactly sure how stiff or loose the bristles really are but all 3 of those have the exact same natural hair bristle shape Also the Charlotte tilbury one I’m guessing is pretty pricey lol. A dupe for that one (if it’s natural hair) morphe m515

[@jsmith7356]

I totally needed you last month when I was brush shopping. Thanks for the awesome info!!!

My absolute favourite brush is a dense blending brush. I can’t live without it.
