oh my god, i'm so glad i looked through some comments. i was waiting for a manny mua reaction. YES, please do a follow up video doing your makeup the way robert suggested so we can vote! i'd LOVE a manny/robert collab. even a manny/robert "ship" ;)
I was talking to my colleague at work and she said 'makeup has no rules' so obviously I responded 'but it has a theory...' and then she looked at me for a while and said 'oh my God, do you watch Robert?' 😍 haha 😂 🖤
can you collaborate with one of the"beauty gurus" and do their makeup and may be let them do yours....it will be fun seeing you when they bake your undereyes😂😂..I am sorry I am wicked like that.
Would literally pay for him to watch a video of me doing my makeup and tell me how to change it. Started watching his videos 24 hours ago and I'm hooked
OMG same, like I also do the triangular concealer thingy because its basically what I mostly see on youtube and instagram that makeup guru's do, I'm still new with makeup and learning.
"why is he calling himself a professional makeup artist?" ... Because my name is Robert and I AM a professional makeup artist 😂💕 Can we all agree that the best parts in the video are where Robert goes "hehehe okaaaaaaay....."😬😂
I only notice how crass some influencers are when Robert is on a split screen. He is just so refined and doesn't need to act obnoxious. It's just very refreshing and it makes me want to have tea and crumpets while I actually learn something.
YES I've been thinking about that ever since I found Robert's channel. I also heard about using concealer in the outer corner of the eye from John for the first time and it really fucking helped with my hooded eyes so having both of them together talk about makeup in a more realistic way would have me D E A D
Your comment about the effects of using concealer as an eyeshadow base causing “skipping” of the eyeshadow really made me think about how many “influencers” rate eyeshadows poorly because of said skipping. When in fact 90% of those individuals are using concealers as bases. Astounding.
Coudge b AND Robert has the knowledge to GIVE good, accurate information. I got tired of just having products pushed constantly so I unsubbed to everyone because it was a waste of time. So I am jaded & just watch Wayne Goss & was thrilled to find this channel in the comments! I’m hear for all of Robert’s techniques hearing his videos (binged almost all in 2 days). My expectations for channels has gone up!
@@heartslove1942 i did the exact same. It's all just become sales videos w/so many filters that their skin looks smoother than mine did at 5yrs old. They've ruined it by their own actions. And I just can't wrap my head around those who still buy into the bs🤦...lol
I saw Hindash use the barest minimal concealer on older skin(no other foundation) and it was blended so beautifully. I love him, but I'd like to see a wear test on it
When you demonstrated how to properly highlight, my jaw dropped at the difference. It looked so glowy and flowed with the structure of your face. So that's how you highlight 😍
Robert Welsh what kind of contacts are those? Also, can you link the spf 50 you wear under your makeup every day? You mentioned it in another video- in the blue packaging...
Robert: “It’s fine to want full coverage but you can achieve full coverage with a full coverage foundation that’s made for your skin type and in a light layer of powder. I just wish we didn’t use so much product and you can have skin like he has here,his skin looks flawless. But you can have a skin that looks flawless by not using that much excessive product” This 💯 🙏. Can we just have a minute 😪
I think the reason you’re one of my favorite makeup artist to watch is because it is so refreshing to watch someone not be rude or spill tea or whatever. You talk straightforward and it’s always so informative
YES!! Watching this other person, after being EDUCATED.....I’m 3 minutes in and sorry but mortified and shocked at (as I see) kind of ignorant, I feel he’s just on THE BANDWAGON lol and he’s really wayyy to jittery. SUSPISCH. lol. I thank the heavens for Robert!
I found Robert, James, Hyram, and Brad and they are my dream team. (Other than MissDarcie) I dont watch many ppl who aren't them when it comes to beauty content 😂😂😂
I wholeheartedly agree with "creativity has no rules, but makeup has a theory" on so many levels.... i'm a comic artist and painter, I apply the same basic color theory be it when I'm painting on screen, canvas, and my face 🤣 When MakeUpGeek introduces the "matrix system", I immediately recognize it as applying "value". It's one of many theories that work both in makeup and painting. Understanding color wheel helps a lot too. ☺️💕
Absodamnlutely! COLOR theory. Works with bringing one part of your face forward and making other bits recede. Cheered the first time I heard Robert say contour should be taupe based. Shadows are not f**Iing "bronze. BTW: I am a major MakeUpGeek fan.

@@Stonermommy555 i sincerly apoligize for my rude and childish comment, i was rude arrogant and condesending im sorry i spread negativity in this world i have deleted the comment
Who else LOVES whenever Robert says "I'm not spilling tea or throwing shade" and that look he makes when people are starting to bake?? 🤣🤣🤣 **Robert you look absolutely AMAZING today!! 😘❤️
every single “influencer” does their makeup exactly the same. matte full coverage foundation with beauty blender, mention “oxidation,” draw heavy light concealer triangles, contour somewhere that seems to work while talking about how great that brush blends it out. repeat with blush. make sure you make your nose narrow even if you don’t need it. do some basic eyeshadow and talk about FALLOUT OOOOH. never be able to do anyone else’s makeup. repeat jeffree star catch phrases loke “ok then!” “i don’t even mind this” “....the house!” “ooooh hello there”. robert actually knows how makeup is supposed to work and can do more than 1 look on more than 1 face with more than 1 type of skin... and he does it all without trying to make people think he’s sooo cool for saying “omg that’s so snatched!”
Hahaha! Don't forget the horrific highlighter dot on the nose!! There are decent influencers who know how to do interesting eye looks that are also wearable and that give useful tips, but yeah... I laughed out loud because sadly you're so right about 95% of them. They're carbon copies of one another, only here to throw around Morphe codes and they've no idea why they're doing things in the first place.
@@amycross5341 that is genius! I do that with blush, I got to a point where I was like why am I covering the pinky tone of my skin THEN adding pink back? I use a thin layer of foundation to smooth things out the a bit of blush to make it look even if that makes sense
another thing about "oxidizing" -- often when makeup dries (just the evaporation of the water component), the color can change, just like it does with something like tempera paint. it's not oxidizing; it's just drying. people who talk about foundation "oxidizing" within 10-15 minutes of application are using the wrong term and don't really understand what's going on. this problem is SO common among beauty influencers.
Imagine wearing all this product and walking around without the ring lights?!! The best part of applying makeup on youthful skin is enhancing its natural quality (collagen) and texture - not masking it. Thank you Robert 😍
I've seen a selfie of manny outside without filters. Was not pretty. This sort of heavy makeup is really only meant for performers and the camera. Not everyday people lmao.
@@strawbunnymilk81 So true! Sad that so many younger people are following these tutorials and wearing makeup that is for theatrical application in their everyday lives.
Robert being oh so Britishly polite when you can tell he is dying to do it his way and I can see all the points he's made perfectly! Also I am always stunned by how beautiful you and your brothers are Robert!
“I feel like when you feel you have a lot of knowledge you shouldn’t keep that to yourself and everyone should be able to have a little bit of that as well.” Well thank you, Robert. Btw, you’re my favorite makeup TH-camr to watch lately. 🤩
I think people live for the gurus makeup because its really theatrical. its like they are putting on a show. I love your channel because im 30 and I need to know how to not look like a clown at my office job
You know what I love? I love and deeply appreciate how totally real your feelings are about this. I will be 37 next month. I'm very slowly coming to terms with the fact that I have splotchy skin and wrinkles. So I've have been trying to learn how to do makeup for the first time in my life (except for my eyes. I cannot give up the glitter. I've cut down, but can't stop. I quit smoking cold turkey, but this is harder). Following certain, um, gurus and using their advice is NOT the path to success for me, I have found. Between this channel and Wayne Goss, I finally feel like I have found a home for me. Thank you, gentlemen, and thank YOU, community, for accepting me. I LOVE reading the comments and seeing even more tips!
TeamEddings ugh I’m 32 and I have always had general redness and starting to notice things that weren’t there a few years ago. It’s hard but I’ve started to just accept it also. I remember in school kids would ask whys your face so red and I’d be like unmmm idk it’s my face
Manny: I use concealer on my lids. Robert: *eyes suddenly twitching with slight annoyance. Love your videos. Your reactions are priceless. Always the gentleman 😉!
Lmao the only reason I'm still using light concealer as a base is because I'm saving up to buy a primer, but I can HEAR Roberts disapproval whenever I do this 😂
You change lives! You back up your instruction with science and basically how our body chemistry works with makeup. You also instruct very well, with patience while incorporating easy to understand examples
When you were describing the layers of powder and concealer creating a new texture/ I could only think of Ross on Friends when he creates a “paste” with lotion and powder while trying to get his leather pants on 😂😂😂
sadly I’ve never liked the way he’s done his makeup, I think it’s very unflattering... especially the bronzer/blush. As someone who has a beard, I don’t like to have a gap in between my bronzer/blush, it’s very unappealing to the eye. Instead, I like to almost follow the top of my beard line but still lifting it so I don’t sag my face down. Even if he’s going for a more dramatic look, I still think he should work on shaping his face better! Just my opinion though :)
I think he has a bit of trouble with it bc his beard doesnt grow as high to the cheeks as Robert's does for example. Also Manny doesnt have defined cheekbones, just a very angular facial outline but I get what you're saying. I think if manny did that though it may look a little weird on his kind of face
I wish that i had your advice several years ago. I have been doing the cakey thing for YEARS and it NEVER worked for me...ever! I got so depressed that these beauty guru's "tips" and "tricks" never worked for me. Since watching your videos and taking your advice, my makeup has been gorgeous! Thank you so much for keeping it real and "debunking" this kind of makeup application. I truly, truly appreciate you. ❤
I loved this. My favorite thing is that you’re not insulting him, you’re giving constructive criticism. And I love that you teach about makeup extenuating someone’s face, not recreating their face.
Pluvi Ghost I hope you are joking or exaggerating about the debt, like debt is no joke and can really screw up your life. I’m sure any product Robert comes out with would be amazing and worth every penny but it’s not with ruining your life over
I’m 43 and I love hearing Robert describe himself as old in his early 30s, it makes me laugh every time. Oh I remember thinking 30 was old 🤣🤣🤣 On another note, I’m a teacher and I think when I have to have little chats with my students, I’m gonna do it with a British accent because everything you say sounds pleasant. Did I mention you are my favorite You Tuber?!
Robert, I want to tell you how much I like you doing these reviews on these influencers. I like the fact that you keep it totally about the makeup and not the person. I have changed up my own makeup routine by listening to you and it looks so much better, thank you so much! Also, you have the most beautiful eyes.
I would love to see Robert's take on E-girl makeup! It's such a Korean/Japanese blush style-inspired technique and I'd love to see someone discuss that.
Omg yes!! I watched the Vogue episode with Doja Cat and it was intriguing (although I had no clue what Egirl was until I asked my 12 y/o 🤦🏾♀️). It’s actually a cute look, I can’t see myself doing it but I feel like it definitely has its place. I’d LOVE to know Roberts opinions.
Everything you say makes sense and please don't worry about repeating yourself. Not very many people hear something once or twice and understand it completely. And new subscribers need to hear! You are wonderful!
I would love to see a tutorial from you explaining how to apply bronzer, contour and highlight for different face shapes! I have a very square face, strong jaw and chin and sometimes I'm not sure what looks good on me! Love your videos🖤
He talks about this some in his blush/bronzer/highlight for different face shapes in his blush video, and/or contour video. I’ve been binging his videos. And you can check out his subscriber suggestion vidoes to see if he mentions it. People even send in vidoes. It almost looks like you have a heart shape face, but I’m not sure. But the general rule of thumb is to strive for the oval face shape (so I contour on the sides of my cheeks).
I love this series. These influencers just need...to stop. My favorite is when they're doing a (non-sponsored) review of a foundation and they will straight up use 4 pumps of it (all while saying they're just going to take a tiny bit), proceed to put it on, and then criticize it for looking cakey or bad. 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Weird how using half the bottle won't look good.
ImAMajesticSeaHorse - It also drives me crazy when they pack an eyeshadow brush full of product and then say “oh my god, look at that fallout” when they pat it on their eye 😩 It’s not always the product, sometimes it’s you god dammit lmao
@@mink5251 yes! Do you remember the drama surrounding the ABH Subculture palette? People were jamming their brushes into the pan then freaking out about the kickup. I'm not saying the palette was without its faults, but some of these influencers were so ridiculous.
"is a choice you make personally, and personally... I don't make that choice" 😂😂 I absolutely love your delivery Robert! I was SO excited, and I saw a lot of others were too, this past week when Tati shouted you out on her channel. You're on the rise my friend, can't wait to see you rise all the way up!!
I’ve watched manny for a long time and I’ve always scratched my head a bit while he puts it on but somehow finished product looks great. I think he really knows what looks good on camera and that’s what he gives us.
You and your brother have literally changed the way I do skin care and makeup. I love how you guys do what you do with real life being the forefront of it all and no drama
You’re the only makeup guru on TH-cam that my bf finds tolerable to watch and that’s saying a lot cuz I’ve made him watch a bunch with me❣️😂 And you’re easy on the eyes❣️😍
I think is because they have so much products to go through before they go bad or also a conspiracy between them and make up brands so people that see their videos use more products and buy more
Exactly and a lot of them don't even have that dark of circles. And if they say it's because of the lights then that is an lie because even under any type of lights my dark circles will show through so I know their circles aren't bad and the excess concealer is unnecessary
These gurus don't realise they do themselves no favors by loading product on. Most are pretty young, so can you imagine what they'll look like using the same techniques (if we can call it so), in their 40's and 50's? Let's hope they stumble across RW's channel well before then.
18:08 As soon as Manny said he primed his eyes with concealer, Robert died a thousand deaths in one millisecond, haha. Bless you for the restrained facial reaction, but that made me laugh so hard because I knew from your other videos that you were about to say something.
I love watching Robert and learning so much. He informs in his react videos without putting the person down. He doesn't say "this person is shit at makeup" he just gives tips to help.
@@Sh4y1028 When Patrick Ta did her make up she looked STUNNING, makeup was perfection... And his application was so much more subtle than her usual, you could really see some of the things Robert is talking about as well
But JS is not a mua tho (he used to be a mua when he was young but not anymore)....he's just a makeup reviewer. He himself wrote as the makeup reviewer in his bio, not mua or beauty guru.
I love that you don't just come out and say the MUA is wrong. You take the time to explain how and why, in your opinion, the application of certain products can be better or if the product is even necessary at all. It would be fun to see one of these influencers follow your advice. I know the results would be stunning. 😊
This year I learned that apparently “aging skin” starts (for me) before you even turn 30. Wtf. These fine lines and wrinkles have me panicking 🤣 but I’ve started switching my routine with all the tricks I’ve learned from you and am looking cute again and all my friends keep asking me for makeup advice 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thanks, Robert. You the real MVP 🏆
I’m so glad you commented about his highlighter placement and the “ pocket of fat”. I’ve alwaysss noticed it didn’t look very fitting for his face shape and I was hoping I wasn’t crazy for thinking it didn’t look that flattering.
Can you please react to Scott Barnes doing Tati's makeup? I would love to hear your opinion on it. Btw I am a new subscriber and I really enjoy your videos!☺️💕
Yes!! This would be the BEST! Although I love the way Scott's makeup looks in the end, I wonder if all that concealer, contour, and powder is really necessary, even for film and stage.
Ahh sorry for my random Q but I can't find the responds again, about other influencers also reacting to Roberts vids🤔🙈But who is Melissa Collins?? Thanks 😘

every single “influencer” does their makeup exactly the same. matte full coverage foundation with beauty blender, mention “oxidation,” draw heavy light concealer triangles, contour somewhere that seems to work while talking about how great that brush blends it out. repeat with blush. make sure you make your nose narrow even if you don’t need it. do some basic eyeshadow and talk about FALLOUT OOOOH. never be able to do anyone else’s makeup. repeat jeffree star catch phrases loke “ok then!” “i don’t even mind this” “....the house!” “ooooh hello there”. robert actually knows how makeup is supposed to work and can do more than 1 look on more than 1 face with more than 1 type of skin... and he does it all without trying to make people think he’s sooo cool for saying “omg that’s so snatched!”
You fucking DRAAAAAGED THEM hahahhahah
Let's all give Billy a hand clap!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
😂😂😂
Hahaha!
Don't forget the horrific highlighter dot on the nose!!
There are decent influencers who know how to do interesting eye looks that are also wearable and that give useful tips, but yeah...
I laughed out loud because sadly you're so right about 95% of them. They're carbon copies of one another, only here to throw around Morphe codes and they've no idea why they're doing things in the first place.
OMG 😂😂😂😂😂.... you are so right!!!!!
I rather have dark under eyes than so much concealer
And who knows, maybe I was going for a starving vampire look that day 🤣
Love that look though 🖤🖤
Same, concealer makes it looks worse! I just really blow out my eyeshadow and take it super low
@@amycross5341 that is genius! I do that with blush, I got to a point where I was like why am I covering the pinky tone of my skin THEN adding pink back? I use a thin layer of foundation to smooth things out the a bit of blush to make it look even if that makes sense
Andrea Velez me too!
Lol
Robert is seriously such a breath of fresh air in the beauty community. ❤️ he is the only beauty TH-camr I watch now.
Thank you! 🖤
I will watch others but his is the only advice to follow.
same
If you want others that don't go overboard with heavy layers, I recommend Lisa Eldridge, RawBeautyKristi, and Samantha Ravndahl
You need to watch his brother James channel too though!
another thing about "oxidizing" -- often when makeup dries (just the evaporation of the water component), the color can change, just like it does with something like tempera paint. it's not oxidizing; it's just drying. people who talk about foundation "oxidizing" within 10-15 minutes of application are using the wrong term and don't really understand what's going on. this problem is SO common among beauty influencers.
Yep, for sure, I have that with some of my paints too, so this is exactly what I was thinking, which is I guess what Robert was getting at!! 😁
Doesn’t oxidizing typically make the foundations orange?
I love how respectful you are to your peers. You seem like a lovely person
Imagine wearing all this product and walking around without the ring lights?!! The best part of applying makeup on youthful skin is enhancing its natural quality (collagen) and texture - not masking it. Thank you Robert 😍
I've seen a selfie of manny outside without filters. Was not pretty. This sort of heavy makeup is really only meant for performers and the camera. Not everyday people lmao.
@@strawbunnymilk81 So true! Sad that so many younger people are following these tutorials and wearing makeup that is for theatrical application in their everyday lives.
MERCH THAT SAYS “It’s a scar” & “baking: it’s so unnecessary”
Omg yes that would be perfect!
Yes 😁😁😁
I would buy the baking shirt so fast
Metzli Sanchez or just a sweater or shirt with his eyebrows on it with the scar😁 I love his scar. So unique!
Melissa Marie UFF YES!
I'm in love with the little giggle he does after saying certain things, and Robert your skin looks amazing in this video!
Thank you!! 🖤🖤
😂😂😂😂😂 yesss... The way he giggles, none like him 😆😆😆😆😆
In EVERY video ❤️
Robert being oh so Britishly polite when you can tell he is dying to do it his way and I can see all the points he's made perfectly! Also I am always stunned by how beautiful you and your brothers are Robert!
“I feel like when you feel you have a lot of knowledge you shouldn’t keep that to yourself and everyone should be able to have a little bit of that as well.”
Well thank you, Robert. Btw, you’re my favorite makeup TH-camr to watch lately. 🤩
I think people live for the gurus makeup because its really theatrical. its like they are putting on a show. I love your channel because im 30 and I need to know how to not look like a clown at my office job
Absolutely! I follow a bunch of them and don't even wear makeup. I just like to hear them talking and watching a creative transformation.
Haha. I'm 35 and a redhead so I totally feel you on the clown thing!
dnwalkingoneggshells haha I felt this
You know what I love? I love and deeply appreciate how totally real your feelings are about this. I will be 37 next month. I'm very slowly coming to terms with the fact that I have splotchy skin and wrinkles. So I've have been trying to learn how to do makeup for the first time in my life (except for my eyes. I cannot give up the glitter. I've cut down, but can't stop. I quit smoking cold turkey, but this is harder). Following certain, um, gurus and using their advice is NOT the path to success for me, I have found. Between this channel and Wayne Goss, I finally feel like I have found a home for me. Thank you, gentlemen, and thank YOU, community, for accepting me. I LOVE reading the comments and seeing even more tips!
TeamEddings ugh I’m 32 and I have always had general redness and starting to notice things that weren’t there a few years ago. It’s hard but I’ve started to just accept it also. I remember in school kids would ask whys your face so red and I’d be like unmmm idk it’s my face
Makeup has a theory you better make a shirt with that phrase on it.
😝😝🖤🖤
I’d buy it
#RobertWelshMerch
Manny: I use concealer on my lids.
Robert: *eyes suddenly twitching with slight annoyance.
Love your videos. Your reactions are priceless. Always the gentleman 😉!
Lmao the only reason I'm still using light concealer as a base is because I'm saving up to buy a primer, but I can HEAR Roberts disapproval whenever I do this 😂
I love you Robert....so professional...so diplomatic and likeable....Great critique without being negative.
You change lives! You back up your instruction with science and basically how our body chemistry works with makeup. You also instruct very well, with patience while incorporating easy to understand examples
Tati recommended you in latest video or second latest. Can't remember lol. You're welcome! ❤️
Yea she did! I got so many messages! 🖤🖤
Well fiiinaly, twas about time👌
I was sooo excited!
When you were describing the layers of powder and concealer creating a new texture/ I could only think of Ross on Friends when he creates a “paste” with lotion and powder while trying to get his leather pants on 😂😂😂
That is my #1 favorite Friends episode!!!🤣🤣🤣
When he tries to pull the pants up and hits himself in the face I laugh every time 🤣🤣
sadly I’ve never liked the way he’s done his makeup, I think it’s very unflattering... especially the bronzer/blush. As someone who has a beard, I don’t like to have a gap in between my bronzer/blush, it’s very unappealing to the eye. Instead, I like to almost follow the top of my beard line but still lifting it so I don’t sag my face down. Even if he’s going for a more dramatic look, I still think he should work on shaping his face better! Just my opinion though :)
Yes. I do love him and think he’s good looking and charming enough to get a way with it. He needs a bit of help though.
Same I always hated how he does his blush n highlighter
I think he has a bit of trouble with it bc his beard doesnt grow as high to the cheeks as Robert's does for example. Also Manny doesnt have defined cheekbones, just a very angular facial outline but I get what you're saying. I think if manny did that though it may look a little weird on his kind of face
I want Robert to do a
“Reacts to Patrick Star full coverage makeup” video so bad lol
Oh yes
With all the powder Patrick uses, and how he pounds it on to his face , it would be hilarious to see Robert squirm 😂
I wish that i had your advice several years ago. I have been doing the cakey thing for YEARS and it NEVER worked for me...ever! I got so depressed that these beauty guru's "tips" and "tricks" never worked for me. Since watching your videos and taking your advice, my makeup has been gorgeous! Thank you so much for keeping it real and "debunking" this kind of makeup application. I truly, truly appreciate you. ❤
I loved this. My favorite thing is that you’re not insulting him, you’re giving constructive criticism. And I love that you teach about makeup extenuating someone’s face, not recreating their face.
The way Robert giggles when he is a shady gentleman 😂
If he launches a makeup line I will personally go into debt for this persom...keep up the amazing work 😊
Pluvi Ghost me too! He’s brilliant
Pluvi Ghost
I hope you are joking or exaggerating about the debt, like debt is no joke and can really screw up your life. I’m sure any product Robert comes out with would be amazing and worth every penny but it’s not with ruining your life over
Scar beauty 🤩😍😂
@@previously4821 joking wise
I’m 43 and I love hearing Robert describe himself as old in his early 30s, it makes me laugh every time. Oh I remember thinking 30 was old 🤣🤣🤣
On another note, I’m a teacher and I think when I have to have little chats with my students, I’m gonna do it with a British accent because everything you say sounds pleasant. Did I mention you are my favorite You Tuber?!
Robert, I want to tell you how much I like you doing these reviews on these influencers. I like the fact that you keep it totally about the makeup and not the person. I have changed up my own makeup routine by listening to you and it looks so much better, thank you so much! Also, you have the most beautiful eyes.
Tati mentioned you in her recent video! I was like “yaaaasssss” ! Love seeing amazing ppl get the attention/praise they deserve 💕
Yeassss I nearly died!! Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤
If he likes the dewiness of the concealer so much, why is he literally shoveling powder over it
It would be super cool if you reacted to the “e-girl makeup” and even recreate it ?!
I would love to see Robert's take on E-girl makeup! It's such a Korean/Japanese blush style-inspired technique and I'd love to see someone discuss that.
Omg yes!! I watched the Vogue episode with Doja Cat and it was intriguing (although I had no clue what Egirl was until I asked my 12 y/o 🤦🏾♀️). It’s actually a cute look, I can’t see myself doing it but I feel like it definitely has its place. I’d LOVE to know Roberts opinions.
I’d love to see an “I only go to the grocery store anymore, because “covid” but don’t want to look like a bum, but c’mon...”look.
This is an good idea!!! 😂
Everything you say makes sense and please don't worry about repeating yourself. Not very many people hear something once or twice and understand it completely. And new subscribers need to hear! You are wonderful!
Manny: guys I went to the gym and say the hottest
Robert: okay let's talk about face shape
😂😂😂😂
That was my favourite bit and then complete change of scene and cut off the story lol!
I laughed so hard when that happened :')
I would love to see a tutorial from you explaining how to apply bronzer, contour and highlight for different face shapes! I have a very square face, strong jaw and chin and sometimes I'm not sure what looks good on me! Love your videos🖤
Lenka Zivkovic same!!!! I not entirely clear what shape my face even is!
He talks about this some in his blush/bronzer/highlight for different face shapes in his blush video, and/or contour video. I’ve been binging his videos.
And you can check out his subscriber suggestion vidoes to see if he mentions it. People even send in vidoes. It almost looks like you have a heart shape face, but I’m not sure. But the general rule of thumb is to strive for the oval face shape (so I contour on the sides of my cheeks).
@@heartslove1942 wow, thank you so much I will definitely check those out :)
I love this series. These influencers just need...to stop. My favorite is when they're doing a (non-sponsored) review of a foundation and they will straight up use 4 pumps of it (all while saying they're just going to take a tiny bit), proceed to put it on, and then criticize it for looking cakey or bad. 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Weird how using half the bottle won't look good.
That's what drives me crazy as well. I normally use half a pump to one. I don't even know where the rest would go 😳
ImAMajesticSeaHorse - It also drives me crazy when they pack an eyeshadow brush full of product and then say “oh my god, look at that fallout” when they pat it on their eye 😩 It’s not always the product, sometimes it’s you god dammit lmao
@@nalomelimaiaseriously!!!! I remember trying a tube foundation and I used way too much the first time and oh my gosh it was terrible.
@@mink5251 yes! Do you remember the drama surrounding the ABH Subculture palette? People were jamming their brushes into the pan then freaking out about the kickup. I'm not saying the palette was without its faults, but some of these influencers were so ridiculous.
I love watching you and James! Beautiful, lovely boys! Makes this 57 year old, straight woman so happy!
I really love listening to Robert's voice. Especially with the evil laugh. It's like ASMR. ❤️
Tati Westbrook was right about you Robert - you’re full of amazing pointers! Definitely a new subbie here 👌🏻🧡
Vicky V what video did she mention him? 🤔☺️
Savannah Sutherland the one about her Tati Beauty palette
Denise Batalha yes perfect! Thank you
"is a choice you make personally, and personally... I don't make that choice" 😂😂 I absolutely love your delivery Robert! I was SO excited, and I saw a lot of others were too, this past week when Tati shouted you out on her channel. You're on the rise my friend, can't wait to see you rise all the way up!!
OMG which video of hers ?! I'm so excited for Robert!!
Which vdo
It was about his review of Tati's blendiful blending puff.
I’ve watched manny for a long time and I’ve always scratched my head a bit while he puts it on but somehow finished product looks great. I think he really knows what looks good on camera and that’s what he gives us.
i love how manny has started using some of the tips, like the blush one :)
You and your brother have literally changed the way I do skin care and makeup. I love how you guys do what you do with real life being the forefront of it all and no drama
You’re the only makeup guru on TH-cam that my bf finds tolerable to watch and that’s saying a lot cuz I’ve made him watch a bunch with me❣️😂 And you’re easy on the eyes❣️😍
😂😂😂 I love that!! Thank you! 🖤
Robert Welsh You’re welcome❣️😂 I will let him know❣️🥰
I agree, hes gorg!
I never understood why these beauty gurus use loads of concealer when their skin is virtually flawless
exactly, they earned money and use facials and good skin care, tf they put so much product? with a sponge! -_-
I think is because they have so much products to go through before they go bad or also a conspiracy between them and make up brands so people that see their videos use more products and buy more
@@ms.shineray yea.. the more you use the more you've to buy.. tactics
Exactly and a lot of them don't even have that dark of circles. And if they say it's because of the lights then that is an lie because even under any type of lights my dark circles will show through so I know their circles aren't bad and the excess concealer is unnecessary
These gurus don't realise they do themselves no favors by loading product on. Most are pretty young, so can you imagine what they'll look like using the same techniques (if we can call it so), in their 40's and 50's? Let's hope they stumble across RW's channel well before then.
18:08 As soon as Manny said he primed his eyes with concealer, Robert died a thousand deaths in one millisecond, haha. Bless you for the restrained facial reaction, but that made me laugh so hard because I knew from your other videos that you were about to say something.
😂😂😂😂😂
Plot twist: a TH-camr Robert critiques reacts to HIS reaction, tries his tips, and ends up looking even more amazing.
He then reacts to his reaction of the video, and the cycle repeats until he's god.
@@Val17282 that made me giggle
I love watching Robert and learning so much. He informs in his react videos without putting the person down. He doesn't say "this person is shit at makeup" he just gives tips to help.
And I'm not saying anyone is bad at makeup. Lol.
nobody:
robert: let me shuffle
😂😂😂😂
“Manny Mua as some people call him”
*sweats
Do Thomas halbert please!!! And cohls world, jeffree star, Laura lee, Gabriel Zamora
Gabriel laura who?
Jeffree Star for sure. I'd love to see that!
Laura Lee too actually!
@@Sh4y1028 When Patrick Ta did her make up she looked STUNNING, makeup was perfection... And his application was so much more subtle than her usual, you could really see some of the things Robert is talking about as well
But JS is not a mua tho (he used to be a mua when he was young but not anymore)....he's just a makeup reviewer. He himself wrote as the makeup reviewer in his bio, not mua or beauty guru.
Robert, your tip about applying concealer under the eyes has helped me SOOOO MUCH!!! Thank you ❤❤❤
I love that you don't just come out and say the MUA is wrong. You take the time to explain how and why, in your opinion, the application of certain products can be better or if the product is even necessary at all. It would be fun to see one of these influencers follow your advice. I know the results would be stunning. 😊
I come here to cleanse my eyes after watching beautubers.
Jenna and Robert are the only Beautubers I respect😤
Thank you for being real, we needed you.
Thank you! 🖤
“I go through it there; scientifically, with science😏”
Adorable
🖤🖤💖💕
Robert is informative, and he never fails to put a smile on my face.
You're honestly My favorite Makeup Artist on TH-cam. Also, you're the most gorgeous person I've ever seen 💗
Manny is speaking so quickly, he sounds like he's at an awards show and they are about to play him off stage.
Hahaha, thats weirdly accurate
I always think the same about James Charles
He sounds like he is on drugs
@@TheArtMasterpiece Absolutely. JC's voice is super annoying, too.
This year I learned that apparently “aging skin” starts (for me) before you even turn 30. Wtf. These fine lines and wrinkles have me panicking 🤣 but I’ve started switching my routine with all the tricks I’ve learned from you and am looking cute again and all my friends keep asking me for makeup advice 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thanks, Robert. You the real MVP 🏆
Drink more water!
After watchin these: Manny, James, Jaclyn all talk and act the same...
It was bothering me so much how every other word he said was "you guys"
james talks a lot faster than everyone else though. lol.
I appreciate how Robert is very objective and gives his professional opinion without ever insulting. Love you Robert! Keep the videos coming !
I’m so glad you commented about his highlighter placement and the “ pocket of fat”. I’ve alwaysss noticed it didn’t look very fitting for his face shape and I was hoping I wasn’t crazy for thinking it didn’t look that flattering.
I love it when Robert concentrates so hard, I’m like 🤷♂️ have I pressed pause 😂
I thought my phone was buffering. Lol
Omg me too!!! Lol
I love how you compliment and give credit where it’s due to everyone you react to
Can you please react to Scott Barnes doing Tati's makeup? I would love to hear your opinion on it. Btw I am a new subscriber and I really enjoy your videos!☺️💕
Yes!! This would be the BEST! Although I love the way Scott's makeup looks in the end, I wonder if all that concealer, contour, and powder is really necessary, even for film and stage.
YES YES YES!! ID ❤️TO C THAT🙌💯
Yesss
Yes. I agree. Great idea.
Ahh sorry for my random Q but I can't find the responds again, about other influencers also reacting to Roberts vids🤔🙈But who is Melissa Collins??
Thanks 😘
“I go through it there scientifically, with science” 😂 this killed me
Robert I love you so much that I don’t skip any advertises on your vids❣️
