Hello everyone! This video is suddenly getting loads of views (it is quite old now) I neglected to mention hooded eyes in this video. This more than likely will not work for hooded eyes. I am working on a hooded eye tutorial for you all! 🖤
Holy crap. I am almost 53 and have been wearing makeup since I was 15 (I am from Texas and I think we are born with a mascara wand in one hand and a bottle of hairspray in the other). I’ve watched hours of TH-cam videos to try and figure out why my eyeshadow never looks good. I’ve purchased thousands of dollars worth of brushes (and eyeshadow) but never could make it work right like the videos. I don’t know how I stumbled across your video today but I did. And let me tell you it has been life-changing. I seriously almost cried. I’ve always done my eyeshadow exactly as you did on “the wrong side”. I cannot believe how simple you made it for me. I do have extremely deep set eyes, but was able to do this technique easily. It doesn’t look as good as yours but it’s good enough. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
@bethy brown Hi, hun. Here I am, post-op, (I was blessed with a benign non invited intruder, thanks God🙌🏻) watching my comfy adorable youtubers _binge mode_ ON 🤗 I read your comment about how texan babies are born with a mascara and a hairspray. 😅😆😂😂☺️🤭Thank you sooooo much for putting a smile and a welshian giggle on my face🙌🏻 Believe it or not, that detail made my day✨✨✨✨✨✨ God bless u and your beloved ones. A big hug from Barcelona 🧛🏻♀️🖤🖤💜💜💜💜💜
Oh Hunny😊 Loved Your comment ❤ Born with a hairspray and mascara -👌 wish we here in Finland would do that.. Still year's later, watching and learning! Love All the Welch Brothers 🙌
I am 44 years old and your video has finally taught me to put on eye shadow. I've been wearing it daily for the last week without embarrassment. Thank you. You're changing lives.
this is a FUNDAMENTAL video, nobody has ever explained it better in my opinion, and i feel that i can actually improve now, since i guess i was always making the same mistake all over again , so thanks!
I have been watching TH-cam makeup videos for YEARS. This is hands down the best blending tutorial I have found to date. You are wonderful to listen to. You have a beautiful accent, you don’t talk about things that don’t matter and are very detailed about what does matter. Thank you!
Couldn't agree more Heather. He is so much nicer to listen to than these 'influencers' who just remind me of kids playing dress up , with their funny voices and phrases!
OMG, I'm crying!. I FINALLY got how to do my eye shadow because of YOU Robert. I have been binge watching your channel and paying close attention to the blend,hold and application of eye shadows. I'm 46 from Australia and after all the makeup tutorials I watch, I finally GOT IT and I feel beautiful . THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
I know your comment is old but it's my first time seeing this video and I am going to be 30 year old next month and have always struggled with blending. Now after this video, I've got it!!
Thank you so much. I got divorced earlier this year and have been trying up my makeup game for when earth is no longer hell. Most of what I’ve seen on TH-cam is so over the top. I love looking at editorial makeup, but it isn’t something I could pull off. You actually give advice and techniques for wearable makeup. You and Wayne Goss are both Angels.
I am in my 50’s I’ve learned more from you and your brother in the last few weeks then all the years of trial & error . And had fun watching because you make it fun instead of making me feel like bad about myself. I love your positivity. Some TH-cam ppl don’t make me feel like they are having fun teaching . Anyway thanks 😊
Hooded eyes a get screwed on every level, winged liners or any kind of liner for that matter, eyeshadow transferring to upper lids, etc. the list goes on.
Hello! I have hooded eyes + a lazy eye :/ I just started my channel so you are welcome to see how I do my eyeshadow. Honestly patience, blending, and practice are key ✨
I found him a couple of months ago and instantly knew he was legit. He doesn't teach the same insta makeup nearly everyone else does. He's teaching fundamentals, not trends. That's what I love to watch. Professionals teaching proper techniques
@@sharicola8870 Yes!! Everybody does the same ole makeup routine I can't stand it None of these so called "makeup artist " don't even know there's different eye and face shapes that need different placement for symmetry All they know is concealer cut crease and heavy red ass contour with bronzer They don't know a lick about color theory or much!! I'm definitely appreciative of professional working Makeup Artist!! Thanks for sharing your comment with me
Malikah Harrison completely agree with everything you’re saying! There’s so many of these ‘makeup artists’ that do the same look on every girl no matter their face shape, eye shape etc! And ALWAYS use a foundation with a yellow undertone. It really annoys me. I would consider myself an ‘old school’ makeup artist and I think you can never stop learning and I appreciate seeing true artists like this explaining their techniques.
Great point! People do start blending from the ceiling and before you know it you have to shave your brows and go up onto you’re forehead. So smart and easy on the eye. Subbed.
I love your scar Robert. I have self-harm scars, and of course OBVIOUSLY regular scars and self-harm scars are different.... but I just want you to know that your acceptance of your scar and your genuine “I like my scar” attitude has helped me accept my body and my scars. So, thank you. :)
As an almost 40 year old who is just now experimenting with makeup, I appreciate your videos so much. I fell into the TH-cam/Instagram trap of "this is how I should apply my makeup", and it never felt right to me! I can't wait to try my eyeshadow following this technique. Thank you!!
@@tmdsb2655 "Tingtingasmr" is Asian and she looks gorgeous with monolids you should have a look at her channel to see her make up looks 😍 very inspiring.
Kelly D. Mono lids and hooded eyes differ in that monolids are beautiful and do not change drastically with age or a RTA like mine I never understand why Asians want to have same eyes as us but then we always want what we haven’t got I guess
Sir, this video changed EVERYTHING for me. For so long I’ve been wondering what the hell I’ve been doing wrong and why I couldn’t do a good smokey eye and it was because I was putting the color in the wrong dang areas. I’ve avoided the more daring and pigmented colors in palettes for years and your video has got me trying out all sorts of looks with them for the first time ever. Thank you so much!
Bless you for using being colors so it's noticeable while teaching. I never noticed I put it into the top then swipe back and forth, then wondered why it wasn't packing color into my outer corner. Very easy to follow. Bf and I have a date tonight, I appreciate you!
I have watched tons of videos who claimed to teach me how to apply eyeshadow and every time I'd just learn nothing. THIS is the first in years that has finally taught me what NOT to do, explaining step by step the mistake. KUDOS ❤
Thank you for being so kind, respectful, and thorough. You are a great teacher! 🤗 I tried to recreate looks and create some of my own the other day but could not figure out why they looked weird. Now I know the right way.
I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on various looks for hooded eyes or slightly hooded eyes? When I do a smokey eye or a halo eye I just find Im lacking in some areas to make it work for my eyes. I follow some people that have hooded eyes and then when I try to repeat what they do i just feel like I'm missing something. I feel like you'd be able explain/show things very well
@@khopps7420 I feel you! There is one hooded eye eyeliner trick (you probably know about it) that made my eyeliner look so much better. The one where you look straight ahead and draw your wing (and then fill it in while closing your eye) instead of closing your eye right away to draw the wing like most people do. Hopefully I explained it correctly :P
I wish someone had made this video years ago when I was first learning makeup! Proper blending is one of the most useful things to learn for eyeshadow!💜
Heavy Metal Makeup I know that everyone hates Jaclyn Hill now but I swear she was the best at teaching blending on TH-cam in those early days before she changed. If you watch her videos from like 2010 or 2011, you will be amazed. Or you can just watch this video which is really good too 😂 it’s nice to have a new person teaching the basics.
I just did it earlier today. I'm 51 and figured I'd try wearing makeup again after about 4 years of not wearing it. Oh well. I'll try the right technique tomorrow! 😂
I’m new to wearing makeup, and I realized from this video tutorial that I’ve been doing it all wrong. It makes me feel embarrassed about myself and not looking professional like Robert. Thank you for showing me how it’s done right!
Don't worry, we all made makeup mistakes in the beginning! Every single one of us. When you're more confident in your ability you'll enjoy the application and experimentation SO much more! 💋✌🏻
"Sorry about my super messy brows"... Dear beauty influencer, your brows look natural, what makes them beautiful to me. Not really in to those sculpted, cubistic brows what are making faces look unnatural and stiffy. Altough when drawing, usually is recommended to "keep it natural". 🤣
There's this annoying trend where people add way too much makeup and overgroom their brows. To me it often looks like someone drew them on with a dark brown sharpie. He's got so much character and uniqueness. If I looked like that, I would make the scar go with my makeup. :3
Hi! i'm from indonesia, and also i have a very "manly job" (according here in indonesia), i'm an site contructor engineer. Woman with make up is frowned upon here unfortunately :( But still i love to prepare 10-15 minutes, everyday before work to do make up, and eye shadow is absolutely my favorite thing to put on, so this and your other video about office make up is really helpful for me to enchance my "eyeshadow game". I get to show that i'm doing make up everyday because i love myself and i want to look good for me (not for others). Thank you for always encouraging us about how make up supposed to enchance what we have, not to covering it all ! Subscribed
Your English was perfect. I'm sorry women in your position and women in makeup is frowned upon there. I hope there are times it is appropriate for you to be able to do more bold looks. I just wanted to comment to say how freaking amazing I think it is to see women moving into jobs that have historically been mostly for men. I dont know you but I am super proud of you. I hope you're the best at what you do and put everyone to shame. Best of luck 💖
Makes soooo much sense. I'm so glad someone actually breaks it down. A lot of influencers/TH-camrs don't explain the technicalities of anything. So when you go to do a look it looks wayyy off. We need more videos showing not only the correct tools but also the correct placement as well. So thank you for this... I know this video is old... But to date I haven't found another video as helpful as this one. So it is much appreciated. 💕
Thank you, thank you! At 63 years old, I've watched many, many eye shadow tutorials from some very talented people. I always come away overwhelmed and frustrated. Don't ask me why, but upon watching this video, I am well on my way to applying my shadow and actually looking darn good! (Don't worry, I will keep it simple.) I actually look forward to putting on my shadow nowadays, and I can't wait to get more practice. You are a Godsend, I can't thank you enough.
Thank you for explaining how the placements of the shadow can make a difference in how it looks. I have seen so many make up eyeshadow tutorials. And i would always feel like i was missing something. This video provided the answer i needed as to what i was doing wrong when it came to my blending.
Thank you for a simple straight forward mini education!! Also thank you for not banging on for ages and saying irritating ‘influencer’ lines like “babes” and “obsessed”. I love this simple piece of knowledge it will change my whole eyeshadow game
With the incredible makeup education he’s giving us he could go “okay babes, I'm like so obsessed with this eyeshadow tech where you put the product in the crease, like omg, go off and girlboss sis” and I'd still listen lmao
I remember watching a featurette on the Princess Diaries 2 DVD that taught Anne Hathaway's double how to do her hair and makeup like Princess Mia, and the windshield wiper technique was one the makeup artist used and I have been using it since. Best tip I have ever used.
Out of all the makeup tutorials I've watched this is by far the best explanation of how to apply, blend and create a smoky eye. I tried the technique on myself but I think I don't have the right brush or just need to keep practicing with one of my blending brushes.
thank you for sharing this. you have TRANSFORMED the way i apply my eyeshadow. i used to the "wrong" way and the results would always make me shy away from wearing eyeshadows reguraly. learning this new and much simpler technique i wear eyeshadows all. the. time. i have monolids and this technique really does wonders for myself. thank you!
Looks like you have a lot of “ladies” on your channel now dear vs the typical 20, 30, 40 TH-camr girl!! I only wish 40 was the new 50!!! What you will find with women our age is that we know who we are now, we own it and if we’re living our best life, we’re out to lift others not knock them down. There’s always going to be an exception here and there. Sadly some never grow out of their own insecurities. We just want to be pretty too without so much fuss. I’ve had “my day” and I enjoy seeing all of the beautiful young women grow, reach their goals, and live their best lives. I enjoy being a role model and paying it forward when I can. You and a few other channels provide content we can appreciate. You are a breath of fresh air as it seems you’ve worked with many models and you understand we all DONT NEED to bake on powder, contour and highlight our battle scars. Keep the great videos coming. Love your channel.
I just turned 30 and have been having a very difficult time coming to terms with it, but I’m starting to embrace it and realize that age is just a number and I’m starting to love myself and find myself. This comment literally brought me to tears. And I agree.. this channel is a breath of fresh air, very informative and interesting, fun.... all the things I want and need in a TH-cam channel. I’m so glad I found you and I’m binge-watching all your videos on this lazy Sunday afternoon ☺️🤗
Toni Douglas it’s funny because I am 37, about to be 38 in like 1.5 weeks, and let me tell ya I had a WAYYY harder time approaching/turning 30 than I’m having approaching 40! 30 is a big one! Toni I assure you it’ll get easier! I relate so much to what you said. I find myself feeling far more comfortable in my own skin as I get older and I’m grateful for that! I don’t feel the need to do a full face just to go get apples, I can toss on my shoes and pay no mind to what my face looks like. Of course I like to do my makeup, but it’s because I WANT to not because I feel I HAVE to. I also pay far more attention to skincare over the latest and greatest makeup products too. I always heard “good skin creates good makeup “ but now I truly understand what that means. Take care!💕
Mariah Martinez I completely agree! I really struggled with turning 30 but 40 was a piece of cake. I’m almost 48 now and have mixed feelings about 50 but still not as bad as looking at 30 was. Looking back, I loved being in my 30s. I feel like that’s when I really learned who I was and what I wanted from life. There is a confidence that comes from growing older and discovering that it isn’t all down hill after an arbitrary age.
OMG I have just found this video all these years later and I'm sooooo grateful. This tutorial is the most useful thing I have ever seen from any MUA on youtube. I'm about to go and watch all your others. Please don't ever stop making these helpful tutorials.
This is a perfect beginner makeup tip. One of the most effective teaching methods is a comparison between the right way and common mistakes. I was over there in 2012 learning this the hard way.
I just recently found your videos, and, just, wow! This is what I’m missing in Makeup Tutorial Videos! Someone that’s actually teaching me something! I’ve been trying to master the smoky eye for years, and you just solved it for me in 5 minutes. Thank you.
Would really love to see a "how to" tutorial on applying eye makeup on heavy hooded eyes, I'm 52 so gravity is winning now 😅 loving your tutes Robert xxx
This makes so much sense! I'm a very visual learner, so this is going to help me greatly! I love makeup, but a lot of videos confuse me (ADHD) and thus I get frustrated at times. I usually just 'go for it' until something looks decent, yet I've been wanting to learn better techniques. Thank you so much!
I’m 51 and just started wearing eyeshadow and am having this exact problem. Thank you so much for these tips. I hope it works for me because you make it look too easy
I wear makeup all the time but sometimes when putting foundation on some times it looks dark after I blend it in really good even when I put on blush after that And some times it looks amazing not Shure what im doing wrong
I've apparently been doing my eyeshadow the right way this whole time. I had girl I know that was a cosmetology student comment on my pictures saying I'm always doing my eyeshadow wrong and it looks stupid and that I should listen to her because she's in school for it and she tried to tell me to do what is now considered the wrong way. I'm so glad I didn't listen to her.
Thank God I came across your channel and saw this!! I've been doing my eye makeup the wrong way since 2 years. I just saw this video, went along with my makeup brushes and now I'm feeling really glad with how it came out to be!!!
I am a Transwoman drag performance artist. This is a gr8 vid, thumbs up. Personally, I use q-tips on my eyes strictly for blending. Spread that knowledge to the masses
You are stunning, by the way! You should upload ur looks or performances! I'm sure people (i know me for sure) would love to see it! I used to have a best friend and her uncle shane was a drag queen! Way back in the day
I just wanted to tell you that I watch a lot of your videos and I learn something new each time. I appreciate your teaching us what to and not to do and simply demonstrating how to actually properly apply our makeup. So, I just wanted to tell you thank you, you are greatly appreciated. 🥰
For years I was doing it just like you were showing and I started watching all these damn videos and realized I sucked so I haven’t wore makeup since and that was 3 years ago. I’m still clueless but after this video I feel like everything is looking up!!!! Thank you I love how you explained everything.
Do you even know how much I love you right now. I was always so good with my eyeshadow until I started watching youtubers. Watching them made me feel like I had been doing it wrong the whole time. When I started going by what they did I would end up looking like a clown to say it nicely... Thank you for saving us all from TH-cam and Instagram brainwashing.
Thank you, Robert! I have good days and not so good days with eyeshadow - almost like having a good hair day and a bad hair day! So, I wasn't entirely aware of what I was doing right when I WAS getting it right and what I was doing horribly wrong that just led me to removing all eye product and starting over with just a single color and leaving it at that. This makes total sense. Thanks for sharing this tip!
Me: a good smokey eye would look good with my look today. I'll try again. Makeup Gawds: watch this video first cuz GURL! 😂😂excellent video eventhough its a little old. I love that your focusing on technique, not brand or colors, technique. I tell ppl all the time that color theory and technique are much more important that brand products. You can have the most expensive products offered but if you dont have the technique, you'll look a hot mess! New sub just for that reason. 👏🏾
Sir Robert, I've watched this video so many times. I just love it. Your instruction is so clear and easy to understand. You are the best thing that has happened in the "makeup" world".
I Absolutely LOVE Robert's videos! He articulates all of his points so well without being boring or drawn-out! So personable with just the right amount of snark, which I love!
Me with 22 in quarantine thought i should start playing with makeup just to realize how truly bad I am with it 🙃 but hey I'm ready to learn! Thanks for the vid!
Wow! Well, I’ve been doing exactly what you did on the wrong eye, all my life! Lol I see exactly how right you are and it makes perfect sense to me now! Now that I’m 58 yrs old, it’s makes a very big difference in how you apply your eye shadow. You are really good. Thanks 😊
Robert, I have what I thought I created a smoky eye everyday for 40 years. I have never gotten compliments on my eyes. I did your technique and I have already had two compliments (I can't believe anybody noticed, but they did). One thought somebody else did my eyes and one said they liked the new eye shadow I was wearing. It is neither. It's the same makeup and I did it myself, but the way you showed me. Thank you, thank you. Finally, I have gotten it right. It only took me 42 years. Where have you been Robert. I sincerely thank you.
My eyes are hooded and your “wrong” technique is actually what works well for me. I think what might not work or be incorrect to you, is right for someone else
This SERIOUSLY helped me... wow what a difference. I have been doing my makeup for years, and this technique fixed what I hated about eyeshadow. The clown look! I get it now. Thank you!
For a hot minute I was lowkey convinced you combed your brow in a v cool way to distinguish yourself from your brother but now that I’ve watched all your videos I see I was an idiot. I love it though, I have a similar one, it’s unique and awesome. Thank you for everything!!
I know this video is old, but I'm so so glad I came across it and YOU! I've asked many influencers how to achieve the outer corner smokiness and noone has ever replied, let alone create a tutorial. THANK YOU!!
Wow this literally is a game changer for me. I really had no idea what I was doing wrong and this broke it down into tangible steps for me that went so behind most vague tutorials. Thank you so much.

Hello everyone! This video is suddenly getting loads of views (it is quite old now) I neglected to mention hooded eyes in this video. This more than likely will not work for hooded eyes. I am working on a hooded eye tutorial for you all! 🖤
Robert Welsh Please include tips for hooded eyes with fat please. The typical asian eyes to be specific. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Please do ì do the #7 on the outer edge and not a v.. I hope it helps or you understand what I am trying to say
That would be wonderful!!
I was just about to ask if you had a hooded eye tutorial
Monolid tutorial too please.
I feel like the reason a lot of people "fail" to recreate eye makeup looks has to do with differences in eye shape.
That part
Exactly. My eye it's like... asian eye, but I'm not, so it's just hard XD
Exactly. 😊
Yes! I have hooded eyes and can't wait for him to release the video for hooded eyes. Most techniques don't work on hooded eyes.

I love looking at editorial makeup, but it isn’t something I could pull off. You actually give advice and techniques for wearable makeup. You and Wayne Goss are both Angels.
hope you’re doing better now !
I'm so sorry that happened to you :( Hope you're feeling a bit better now

Hooded eyes a get screwed on every level, winged liners or any kind of liner for that matter, eyeshadow transferring to upper lids, etc. the list goes on.
Wayne Goss (I think) has a pretty great eyeliner tutorial for hooded eyes. It's a bat wing that looks like winged liner!
Smokey eyes be like youve two black holes were your eyes should be 😢
Preach I can look stunning but as soon as I use any type of facial expression I look like a discarded street walker
Hello! I have hooded eyes + a lazy eye :/ I just started my channel so you are welcome to see how I do my eyeshadow. Honestly patience, blending, and practice are key ✨

Malikah Harrison completely agree with everything you’re saying! There’s so many of these ‘makeup artists’ that do the same look on every girl no matter their face shape, eye shape etc! And ALWAYS use a foundation with a yellow undertone. It really annoys me. I would consider myself an ‘old school’ makeup artist and I think you can never stop learning and I appreciate seeing true artists like this explaining their techniques.
Great point! People do start blending from the ceiling and before you know it you have to shave your brows and go up onto you’re forehead. So smart and easy on the eye. Subbed.
When he did the wrong side I was like.... "Damn that's me"🥲

Looooove having a legit makeup artist giving people tips rather than just makeup enthusiasts.
How do you think they become professionals??? By being make up enthusiates🙃
As an almost 40 year old who is just now experimenting with makeup, I appreciate your videos so much. I fell into the TH-cam/Instagram trap of "this is how I should apply my makeup", and it never felt right to me! I can't wait to try my eyeshadow following this technique. Thank you!!
@Hello Kitty Same here. We can do it!!
Y’all be complaining about hooded eyes
*laughs in Asian monolids*
I'd rather have monolids 😢
My youngest sister has monolids. She begged me to do her makeup and that was one of the hardest makeup looks I've done.
Kelly D. Nahhhh when I open my eyes, all that makeup just disappears into a deep hole. Not fun.
@@tmdsb2655 "Tingtingasmr" is Asian and she looks gorgeous with monolids you should have a look at her channel to see her make up looks 😍 very inspiring.
Kelly D. Mono lids and hooded eyes differ in that monolids are beautiful and do not change drastically with age or a RTA like mine
I never understand why Asians want to have same eyes as us but then we always want what we haven’t got I guess
Umm, I feel like this was directed at me. 😂 this is exactly how I start doing my eyeshadow... now I know why I don’t like my looks afterwards 👀
me who just threw glitter on my eyelids and eyeliner and called it a day :0
Omg the wrong side was literally me.
It's still me 🤦🏾♀️
Sir, this video changed EVERYTHING for me. For so long I’ve been wondering what the hell I’ve been doing wrong and why I couldn’t do a good smokey eye and it was because I was putting the color in the wrong dang areas. I’ve avoided the more daring and pigmented colors in palettes for years and your video has got me trying out all sorts of looks with them for the first time ever. Thank you so much!
That’s amazing thank you so much!!! 🖤🖤
Same!! You are giving this newly minutes 50 year old makeup addict COURAGE! And my husband loves my new, colorful eye looks...BONUS!
Newly minted! LOL. Anyway, you've made me into a bold old broad!
@@colleenregan9130 I turned 50 last week too!!!
Bless you for using being colors so it's noticeable while teaching. I never noticed I put it into the top then swipe back and forth, then wondered why it wasn't packing color into my outer corner. Very easy to follow. Bf and I have a date tonight, I appreciate you!
ebonystripes thank you so much!! I hope you had a great night!! 🖤🖤
Robert Welsh yesss they got engaged that night!
I have watched tons of videos who claimed to teach me how to apply eyeshadow and every time I'd just learn nothing. THIS is the first in years that has finally taught me what NOT to do, explaining step by step the mistake. KUDOS ❤
Thank you for being so kind, respectful, and thorough. You are a great teacher! 🤗 I tried to recreate looks and create some of my own the other day but could not figure out why they looked weird. Now I know the right way.
I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on various looks for hooded eyes or slightly hooded eyes? When I do a smokey eye or a halo eye I just find Im lacking in some areas to make it work for my eyes. I follow some people that have hooded eyes and then when I try to repeat what they do i just feel like I'm missing something. I feel like you'd be able explain/show things very well
Laura K that’s a great idea! I have very slightly hooded eyes so I can share some of my tips!! Xx
@@RobertWelsh yes, please do it would be greatly appreciated!
I live the hooded eye struggle too. No matter how I blend and where I put it, my eye socket just sucks in all the color lol
@@khopps7420 I feel you! There is one hooded eye eyeliner trick (you probably know about it) that made my eyeliner look so much better. The one where you look straight ahead and draw your wing (and then fill it in while closing your eye) instead of closing your eye right away to draw the wing like most people do. Hopefully I explained it correctly :P
This is The most *THOROUGH* "Do's and Don'ts" Eyeshadow tutorial I've ever seen on TH-cam. Thank You for this🙏
I wish someone had made this video years ago when I was first learning makeup! Proper blending is one of the most useful things to learn for eyeshadow!💜
Heavy Metal Makeup I know that everyone hates Jaclyn Hill now but I swear she was the best at teaching blending on TH-cam in those early days before she changed. If you watch her videos from like 2010 or 2011, you will be amazed. Or you can just watch this video which is really good too 😂 it’s nice to have a new person teaching the basics.
The fact that I just did the “bad eye” on myself yesterday 😂😂 I’m glad I watched this now I’ll do it differently
Same girl same 😭😭
I just did it earlier today. I'm 51 and figured I'd try wearing makeup again after about 4 years of not wearing it. Oh well. I'll try the right technique tomorrow! 😂
I’m new to wearing makeup, and I realized from this video tutorial that I’ve been doing it all wrong. It makes me feel embarrassed about myself and not looking professional like Robert. Thank you for showing me how it’s done right!
Don't worry, we all made makeup mistakes in the beginning! Every single one of us. When you're more confident in your ability you'll enjoy the application and experimentation SO much more! 💋✌🏻
what a hidden gem you are on youtube
Thank you so much! 🖤
I was just thinking the same thing!
"Sorry about my super messy brows"... Dear beauty influencer, your brows look natural, what makes them beautiful to me. Not really in to those sculpted, cubistic brows what are making faces look unnatural and stiffy. Altough when drawing, usually is recommended to "keep it natural". 🤣
Thank you so much! There’s something about reading people’s comments on your videos that makes you feel like you have to apologise for everything 😂😂
@@RobertWelsh F&*k em! 😝😘😘😘
What eyebrow makeup works best on scars? I have issue getting anything to cover my scar.
There's this annoying trend where people add way too much makeup and overgroom their brows. To me it often looks like someone drew them on with a dark brown sharpie. He's got so much character and uniqueness. If I looked like that, I would make the scar go with my makeup. :3
torille! ok ill go home
Hi! i'm from indonesia, and also i have a very "manly job" (according here in indonesia), i'm an site contructor engineer. Woman with make up is frowned upon here unfortunately :(
But still i love to prepare 10-15 minutes, everyday before work to do make up, and eye shadow is absolutely my favorite thing to put on, so this and your other video about office make up is really helpful for me to enchance my "eyeshadow game". I get to show that i'm doing make up everyday because i love myself and i want to look good for me (not for others).
Thank you for always encouraging us about how make up supposed to enchance what we have, not to covering it all !

Your English was perfect. I'm sorry women in your position and women in makeup is frowned upon there. I hope there are times it is appropriate for you to be able to do more bold looks. I just wanted to comment to say how freaking amazing I think it is to see women moving into jobs that have historically been mostly for men. I dont know you but I am super proud of you. I hope you're the best at what you do and put everyone to shame. Best of luck 💖
Suka liat video" tutorial make-up ya kak...
Makes soooo much sense. I'm so glad someone actually breaks it down. A lot of influencers/TH-camrs don't explain the technicalities of anything. So when you go to do a look it looks wayyy off. We need more videos showing not only the correct tools but also the correct placement as well. So thank you for this... I know this video is old... But to date I haven't found another video as helpful as this one. So it is much appreciated. 💕
Thank you, thank you!
At 63 years old, I've watched many, many eye shadow tutorials from some very talented people. I always come away overwhelmed and frustrated.
Don't ask me why, but upon watching this video, I am well on my way to applying my shadow and actually looking darn good! (Don't worry, I will keep it simple.) I actually look forward to putting on my shadow nowadays, and I can't wait to get more practice.
You are a Godsend, I can't thank you enough.
Can we get a Robert Welsh x Wayne Goss collab some time? 😁🙏
Soph Gm yess
They're my 2 favorites
Oh my gosh! I am new to the make up work and I absolutely love them both!
That would be amazing!!!!
Wayne Goss has never done a makeup. He just talks.
Never realized why my smokey eyes wouldn’t come out how I wanted them to lol. Great tutorial! 💕
Thank you for explaining how the placements of the shadow can make a difference in how it looks. I have seen so many make up eyeshadow tutorials. And i would always feel like i was missing something. This video provided the answer i needed as to what i was doing wrong when it came to my blending.
Thank you for a simple straight forward mini education!! Also thank you for not banging on for ages and saying irritating ‘influencer’ lines like “babes” and “obsessed”. I love this simple piece of knowledge it will change my whole eyeshadow game
With the incredible makeup education he’s giving us he could go “okay babes, I'm like so obsessed with this eyeshadow tech where you put the product in the crease, like omg, go off and girlboss sis” and I'd still listen lmao
Thank you for being so articulate and demonstrating. This is SOOOO helpful.
I remember watching a featurette on the Princess Diaries 2 DVD that taught Anne Hathaway's double how to do her hair and makeup like Princess Mia, and the windshield wiper technique was one the makeup artist used and I have been using it since. Best tip I have ever used.
Out of all the makeup tutorials I've watched this is by far the best explanation of how to apply, blend and create a smoky eye. I tried the technique on myself but I think I don't have the right brush or just need to keep practicing with one of my blending brushes.
You’re doing good things for the world by doing these videos
This video helped me more than any other video or beauty book I've seen. Thank you
thank you for sharing this. you have TRANSFORMED the way i apply my eyeshadow. i used to the "wrong" way and the results would always make me shy away from wearing eyeshadows reguraly. learning this new and much simpler technique i wear eyeshadows all. the. time. i have monolids and this technique really does wonders for myself. thank you!
Looks like you have a lot of “ladies” on your channel now dear vs the typical 20, 30, 40 TH-camr girl!! I only wish 40 was the new 50!!!
What you will find with women our age is that we know who we are now, we own it and if we’re living our best life, we’re out to lift others not knock them down. There’s always going to be an exception here and there. Sadly some never grow out of their own insecurities.
We just want to be pretty too without so much fuss. I’ve had “my day” and I enjoy seeing all of the beautiful young women grow, reach their goals, and live their best lives. I enjoy being a role model and paying it forward when I can.
You and a few other channels provide content we can appreciate. You are a breath of fresh air as it seems you’ve worked with many models and you understand we all DONT NEED to bake on powder, contour and highlight our battle scars. Keep the great videos coming. Love your channel.
This comment was beautiful to read thank you so so much! 🖤🖤🖤
I just turned 30 and have been having a very difficult time coming to terms with it, but I’m starting to embrace it and realize that age is just a number and I’m starting to love myself and find myself. This comment literally brought me to tears. And I agree.. this channel is a breath of fresh air, very informative and interesting, fun.... all the things I want and need in a TH-cam channel. I’m so glad I found you and I’m binge-watching all your videos on this lazy Sunday afternoon ☺️🤗
Toni Douglas it’s funny because I am 37, about to be 38 in like 1.5 weeks, and let me tell ya I had a WAYYY harder time approaching/turning 30 than I’m having approaching 40! 30 is a big one! Toni I assure you it’ll get easier! I relate so much to what you said. I find myself feeling far more comfortable in my own skin as I get older and I’m grateful for that! I don’t feel the need to do a full face just to go get apples, I can toss on my shoes and pay no mind to what my face looks like. Of course I like to do my makeup, but it’s because I WANT to not because I feel I HAVE to. I also pay far more attention to skincare over the latest and greatest makeup products too. I always heard “good skin creates good makeup “ but now I truly understand what that means. Take care!💕
I’m 41 and agree with you!
Mariah Martinez I completely agree! I really struggled with turning 30 but 40 was a piece of cake. I’m almost 48 now and have mixed feelings about 50 but still not as bad as looking at 30 was. Looking back, I loved being in my 30s. I feel like that’s when I really learned who I was and what I wanted from life. There is a confidence that comes from growing older and discovering that it isn’t all down hill after an arbitrary age.
After doing my make up like your wrong side for years and trying to make myself better , I can finally say. This video has enlightened my life😂🌺🌸
I am absolutely obsessed with all of Robert’s facial expressions. I am always smiling while watching his videos.
OMG I have just found this video all these years later and I'm sooooo grateful. This tutorial is the most useful thing I have ever seen from any MUA on youtube. I'm about to go and watch all your others. Please don't ever stop making these helpful tutorials.
This is a perfect beginner makeup tip. One of the most effective teaching methods is a comparison between the right way and common mistakes. I was over there in 2012 learning this the hard way.
Well ... that explains why I never feel the need to do a cut crease - I somehow manage to keep most of the shadow off of my lid. Sweet.
I just LOVED how you explained this. “The Smokey effect doesn’t come from the colour but from the blending”
Me too
I just recently found your videos, and, just, wow! This is what I’m missing in Makeup Tutorial Videos! Someone that’s actually teaching me something! I’ve been trying to master the smoky eye for years, and you just solved it for me in 5 minutes. Thank you.
Would really love to see a "how to" tutorial on applying eye makeup on heavy hooded eyes, I'm 52 so gravity is winning now 😅 loving your tutes Robert xxx
This makes so much sense! I'm a very visual learner, so this is going to help me greatly! I love makeup, but a lot of videos confuse me (ADHD) and thus I get frustrated at times. I usually just 'go for it' until something looks decent, yet I've been wanting to learn better techniques. Thank you so much!
I’m 51 and just started wearing eyeshadow and am having this exact problem. Thank you so much for these tips. I hope it works for me because you make it look too easy
What a great video my darling i am sure you helped out a lot of people! much love to you darling ♥️
yo! Sugar Love replied. I love ur makeups
I wear makeup all the time but sometimes when putting foundation on some times it looks dark after I blend it in really good even when I put on blush after that
And some times it looks amazing not Shure what im doing wrong
I love doing makeup but I have hooded eyes and all my work juts get hidden when I open them. Can you do a video of trips and tricks for my eyes?
Probably the best eyeshadow tutorial I've ever seen. Especially the tip of getting into the socket and the flat brush. What a difference.
I've apparently been doing my eyeshadow the right way this whole time. I had girl I know that was a cosmetology student comment on my pictures saying I'm always doing my eyeshadow wrong and it looks stupid and that I should listen to her because she's in school for it and she tried to tell me to do what is now considered the wrong way. I'm so glad I didn't listen to her.
this.... this is what I wanna learn about. Not the drama in people’s life. MAKEUP
Thank God I came across your channel and saw this!! I've been doing my eye makeup the wrong way since 2 years. I just saw this video, went along with my makeup brushes and now I'm feeling really glad with how it came out to be!!!
I am a Transwoman drag performance artist. This is a gr8 vid, thumbs up. Personally, I use q-tips on my eyes strictly for blending. Spread that knowledge to the masses
That’s literally how I learnt to do makeup! Q-tips and triangle sponges!! 😝🖤
You are stunning, by the way! You should upload ur looks or performances! I'm sure people (i know me for sure) would love to see it!
I used to have a best friend and her uncle shane was a drag queen! Way back in the day
@@koltonnanninga577 thank you very much for your compliment. I have thought about it, still on the fence about joining youtube.
Yes love love your best life I’d love to see your work
Stick to using brushes. Q tips are bad for the environment.
I just wanted to tell you that I watch a lot of your videos and I learn something new each time. I appreciate your teaching us what to and not to do and simply demonstrating how to actually properly apply our makeup. So, I just wanted to tell you thank you, you are greatly appreciated. 🥰
I definitely do the wrong thing 😂 thanks for this I was so frustrated! now I see where I went wrong. 🥰
subscribed! ❤️
🤭 Thank you so much Christen!!! 🖤🖤🖤
Yup me too!
Just subscribed! Love your channel!
Omg I’m 45 years old and this video just explained eyeshadow perfectly to me! Thank you!!!
Stephanie Keith same at 49 😂😂😂❤️
For years I was doing it just like you were showing and I started watching all these damn videos and realized I sucked so I haven’t wore makeup since and that was 3 years ago. I’m still clueless but after this video I feel like everything is looking up!!!! Thank you I love how you explained everything.
Do you even know how much I love you right now. I was always so good with my eyeshadow until I started watching youtubers. Watching them made me feel like I had been doing it wrong the whole time. When I started going by what they did I would end up looking like a clown to say it nicely... Thank you for saving us all from TH-cam and Instagram brainwashing.
Thank you, Robert! I have good days and not so good days with eyeshadow - almost like having a good hair day and a bad hair day! So, I wasn't entirely aware of what I was doing right when I WAS getting it right and what I was doing horribly wrong that just led me to removing all eye product and starting over with just a single color and leaving it at that.
This makes total sense. Thanks for sharing this tip!
Thank you so much. Even though I'm not an expert, I totally understood what I was doing incorrectly. You're awesome.
Me: a good smokey eye would look good with my look today. I'll try again.
Makeup Gawds: watch this video first cuz GURL!
😂😂excellent video eventhough its a little old. I love that your focusing on technique, not brand or colors, technique. I tell ppl all the time that color theory and technique are much more important that brand products. You can have the most expensive products offered but if you dont have the technique, you'll look a hot mess! New sub just for that reason. 👏🏾
I sincerely love how informative your videos are. You make content that us everyday makeup users need and want to see! So I thank you for that 😘
Sir Robert, I've watched this video so many times. I just love it. Your instruction is so clear and easy to understand. You are the best thing that has happened in the "makeup" world".
I Absolutely LOVE Robert's videos! He articulates all of his points so well without being boring or drawn-out! So personable with just the right amount of snark, which I love!
I have been watching makeup videos since they’ve been around and I have never watched someone that explain this as well as you! Thank you sm angel! 💘
I took cosmetology but our instructor did not teach this technique to us. I'm glad that I've watch your video😉
Me with 22 in quarantine thought i should start playing with makeup just to realize how truly bad I am with it 🙃 but hey I'm ready to learn! Thanks for the vid!
Wow! Well, I’ve been doing exactly what you did on the wrong eye, all my life! Lol I see exactly how right you are and it makes perfect sense to me now! Now that I’m 58 yrs old, it’s makes a very big difference in how you apply your eye shadow. You are really good. Thanks 😊
Robert, I have what I thought I created a smoky eye everyday for 40 years. I have never gotten compliments on my eyes. I did your technique and I have already had two compliments (I can't believe anybody noticed, but they did). One thought somebody else did my eyes and one said they liked the new eye shadow I was wearing. It is neither. It's the same makeup and I did it myself, but the way you showed me. Thank you, thank you. Finally, I have gotten it right. It only took me 42 years. Where have you been Robert. I sincerely thank you.
Wow men got this makeup game down frfr. Love this so much.
SO Glad we have the same eye shape and I'm definitely going to try this now. Yay! Thank you.
My eyes are hooded and your “wrong” technique is actually what works well for me. I think what might not work or be incorrect to you, is right for someone else
He says in the top comments that hooded eyes are different!
This is the best tutorial ever. You explain and show the technique so well. Many videos miss the mark of what you are teaching.
This SERIOUSLY helped me... wow what a difference. I have been doing my makeup for years, and this technique fixed what I hated about eyeshadow. The clown look! I get it now. Thank you!
This was so helpful I’ve been doing my eye shadow all wrong😩 I kept wondering why was it giving off a certain look now I know thank you❤️
Oh the disadvantages of hooded lids. :(
Same here
Relatable😟
Jodie same ☹️
When I do a whole eye shadow look u can't even see it LMFAO
Ugh yeah..
For a hot minute I was lowkey convinced you combed your brow in a v cool way to distinguish yourself from your brother but now that I’ve watched all your videos I see I was an idiot. I love it though, I have a similar one, it’s unique and awesome. Thank you for everything!!
😂😂 Thank you so much! 🖤🖤🖤
I know this video is old, but I'm so so glad I came across it and YOU! I've asked many influencers how to achieve the outer corner smokiness and noone has ever replied, let alone create a tutorial. THANK YOU!!
I make a lot of these mistakes.. Thank you for demonstrating them side by side so I can see where and how I need to fix my technique!
This video changed my life I was doing the one on the “bad” eye and I was like wtf am I doing wrong?! Thank you soooo much for this!!!!😍😍😍
Just with reading the title I realized I was doing the "wrong" side all along. Thank you soo much, I am going to step up my game thanks to you!
like seriosly how are you so goddamn good at make up while me trying it looking like i got punched in the eye
That's what I always used to say! I don't do smokey eyes because I look like I got punched and I have a black eye now. NOW, I understand!!!
How do you not have millions of followers, you’re so much more genuine, honest and polite compared to other gurus! Literally love you!
Wow this literally is a game changer for me. I really had no idea what I was doing wrong and this broke it down into tangible steps for me that went so behind most vague tutorials. Thank you so much.
