Hey everyone! I made a mistake in editing! In the blending brushes I call the black transition brush 230 it’s 224!
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 😂
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!
PLEASE do a guide to makeup on hooded eyelids😩 like eyeliner, cut creases, halo eyes, falsies etc. i am struggling!!
nicole edwards yess! The struggle is real 😅
He said he was working on it about a month ago.. maybe he had to coordinate with a model with the right eye shape
Renee S i hope it comes soon!! i only just started watching him & have already learned so much lol
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
Yes! Don't leave us hooded eyed people hanging.
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 😭
Marianne Stockwell THAT.
Marianne Stockwell took the words out of my mouth. I don’t need to say anything else 😉✨
This is the most informative video about brushes that I have watched.
Thank you! 🖤
@@RobertWelsh seriously!!! Thank you!!
@@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
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 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😝😝😝😂🖤
Lol
Omg YAAS haha!!
Istg I've never been prouder than when Robert pulled out the one good brush I own (the zoeva crease)
Yessss it’s the best! 🖤🖤
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!
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.
yess. that would be very interesting and helpful
Yes please!!!!
Yes. For both synthetic and natural hair brushes.
Yes!!
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
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!
I like Sigma brushes. I bought a set of brushes around 7 years ago and they are still in great shape!
Sigma brushes have great staying power I have some from 10 years ago and their still going
They the best brushes!👏🏾
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 😂
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
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! ♥️
🖤🖤🖤
You have no idea how many times I'm gonna rewatch this..
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
Thank you so much! I will do a video for face brushes!! Yes I love sigma! Code Robert10 for 10% off 😜🖤
when Robert uploads lord knows I drop everything to watch it
😝🖤🖤🖤
I don’t know how you don’t have millions of subscribers honestly
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!
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.
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! 🤗
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.
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!!
Thank you so much! 🖤
Seriously the best make-up channel on KZhead. 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
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!!
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!
never been this fast to anything lmao. you're the best
🖤🖤🖤
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!
You have the BEST voice for ASMR. I passed out watching this..... twice... 😍
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.
I really love the format of this video, showing how to do the exact thing you’re describing is really useful!
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.
Me at every other beauty youtuber: “BUT SHOW US THE BRUSHESSS” Thank you Robert for actually teaching us 🖤
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🖤
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
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. 🤗🥰🖤🖤🖤
Thank you so so much!! 🖤🖤🖤
Love how much knowledge and common sense you bring, not just trying to sell us something. We appreciate you!!
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!
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!
Thank you so much! 🖤🖤🖤
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.
😂😂 I’ll make one for sure! 🖤
This is easily the most informative brush video I’ve ever watched.
I can’t stress enough how much you have been desperately needed in the KZhead makeup scene. I had stopped watching makeup “beauty gurus” all together because; 1) I was so tired of feeling like I was watching the home shopping network. 2) I felt like none of the “techniques” ever applied to me in the real world. I’m a mother to two small children. Ain’t nobody got time for that! I just want to feel pretty and look like I give a shit. Thank you so much for everything you do! It is greatly needed! Suggestion for video: “critique my technique” since you try to help by answering questions, maybe you could help by looking at the way people apply their makeup. I don’t know, just a thought.
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!!!
Thank you so much! I will do!! 😝🖤
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 KZheadr, so glad I found you! 🖤
Thank you so much! What perfect timing for a tax return! 😝🖤
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.
Robert you just saved me from buying more brushes just because I thought I needed more but your video made me realize that I've all the necessary brushes, another great video from a great REAL make up artist.
I've learned so much from you. People are really starting to notice my makeup now. Thank you so much!!!
I love your videos! You are such a breath of fresh air outside of all of the beauty community drama that’s always going on. Not that I don’t I don’t love them as well but you just bring new life to make up and you tube!
Thank you so so much!! 🖤🖤
You are very welcome! Thank you as well for the wonderful content you make! ❤️❤️❤️
It’s refreshing to see someone show love for the old school applicators. They get the job done! 😛
Nothing packs on product like a dry eye sponge applicator from the 80's. 🤣 🤣 🤣
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.
Everything I've wanted!!!! I trust your judgement Robert, I'm about to go on a shopping spree!!!
🖤🖤🖤
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!
The liner brush that comes with the L'Oreal gel liner in the pot is perfection!
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!
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 ❤
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 :)
I have Primark for when I just want something quick and blended and the Mac and morphe and real techniques are dirty. 🤣 🤣
@@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
I’ve learned more in the two weeks since I’ve found your videos than in the previous (nearly) 44 years of my life. You are performing an amazing service and I’ve been bingeing your videos like crazy. Better late than never, I guess
I just wanted to say that I love your blue contacts! They look so real and beautiful! I remember when people first started wearing 'natural' colored contacts and the contacts would freak me out because they looked so flat and one dimensional in an otherwise natural and human looking face. Unnatural colored contacts, like white out lenses or cat eyes, don't give me that uncanny valley feeling like a lot of 'natural' colored ones do. Your contacts are beautiful and they don't freak me out. 🖤
Never been that fast - yaaas!
Your reply was 44 seconds ago. I clicked the second the announcement came up 🤣🤣🤣. Not that I care about being first but it’s funny!
😝🖤
Fat, Fierce and Over Fifty Elizabeth Inman really? It said video published 10sec ago when I wrote my comment. Guess youtube needs a few sec to post it 🤷🏻♂️😂 but you‘re right, it actually doesn‘t matter. But funny anyway, cause usually I am suuuuuuper late to watch
I just bought the morphe babe faves brush set; and I have hooded eyes so this video is so appreciated 😍🥰
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 ❤
Where have you been all this time⁉️ Not only are you amazing, I find your voice so soothing. I’m so happy you did this video. I would love more videos of your reviewing other gurus make up application. Thank you for bringing me back to you tube!!!💋💋💋
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
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.
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.
My pleasure! Thank you so much! 🖤
ROBERT!!! You are a GOD! God, I say! I can not stress enough how long I have been looking for videos and advice on brushes like this. You are a life saver! I’m so glad I found your channel! Thank you so very much 🙏🙏😍🤩
Never clicked on a video so fast when I saw it in my subscriptions 🥰😍
Thank you Sarah! 🖤
Yes! Yes! Here early!!! Love brushes they are so underrated!!!
My Morphe M507 is one of my essentials! It's a medium/small blending brush and it's perfect for my hooded eyes. I'm obsessed with it, lol. Also, my NYX pencil brush. I love how pointed it is💗 Edit: btw, I just found you a few weeks ago and I am so glad I did! You're absolutely amazing! Keep doing you💗
Ooooo I have one NYX brush but I might try some more! 🖤🖤
When you said Tilsbury 😄 sounded so cute 😍😘
My absolute favourite brush is a dense blending brush. I can’t live without it.
I AM LEGIT THE SAME WITH THE GLITTER PHOBIA 😱
ME TOO!!. And people putting glitter in an envelope with an invitation!..I scream
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.
Yay! Finally someone else who hasn't forgotten how to use a damn sponge tip eyeshadow applicator. I just like you even more now.
I'd love you to do more videos about using brushes. I feel like a lot of people I watch don't really explain how to use different tools. Wear on the brush to pick up product etc.
It seems you’re growing into a big youtuber really quickly (I subbed at 38k) and you’re already at 150k! I enjoy smaller youtubers because there is more fan interact, so I’ll enjoy this channel while it’s still smaller!
I always try to interact with everyone so I hope you’ll still support me! 🖤
Damn Robert your channel has grown so much so quickly!!! So happy for you, you deserve it!! ☺️
Thank yoooou! 🖤
i follow a lot of beauty channels but this is the only channel where i get to learn something new :)
I know this is old; but i've been creeping around your channel for a couple of years, i'm just gonna go ahead and subscribe. I find your content very useful to me. Thanks!
I just found your channel today and I LOVE YOUR CONTENT that is all
Thank you! 🖤🖤🖤
so excited, never been this early!
👋🏼 🖤
I really don't understand why you have more subscribers..your very precise an detail an so far the only one that breaks it down that even a beginner could have confidence in doing makeup well ..your awesome its truly your calling
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!
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
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.
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 :/
that eyebrow brush would be good for my babyhairs lol
also I prefer am videos
Yesss! 🖤🖤
I have used a spoolie brush on my baby hairs before. 🤷🏾🤷🏾😂😂 Lol!
Robert, You & Christine, Simply Nailogical, should do a eyeshadow small applicator colab!
Yes!!!! Pleeeease do face brushes!!! I luuuuuv watching your channel. You are my new go to! It's the 'real life make up' that drew me in. You must feel like you have to defend true make techniques regularly!
We need to hook you up with Japanese-made brushes 😋 like hakuhodo
Yesssss!! 🖤🖤
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.
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
Silicone applicator is also amazing for glitter 😊🖤
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
Robert your channel is helping me so much! I went from dragging my foundations with my HANDS and just using whatever i can find at the drug store...make up and brush wise i would only have a pile of poo that came with a cheap foundation or powder...i am telling u i finally am finding out how to do my makeup! It is so much fun and I am finding that when I am having anxiety or a bad day my favorite things to do are to either start cleaning my house or doing make up or even both at once! Thank you so much for the information I have no interest in listening to beauty guru's talk about how they are going to sue each other while "baking" god i am so glad i did not spend money on baking powders i did not understand what we were doing there but hey here we are now thank u robert!
I thought I was crazy using 5 different brushes for one eye look but now I know I’ve been doing it right this entire time 😎
I will watch this over and over. Thank you!
Omg I love that you listen to your subscribers! I asked for a video like this ❤️ you’re the best
MAC 242! Can’t live without it!
YES PLEASE DO MORE BRUSHES!!!! I always want to buy brushes but I never know what they do or which ones to get, this is was so helpful!!
I swear it's like EVERY SINGLE TIME I think of a video request to ask you for, you go and upload it the same day or the next day 🤯 Thank you
This video just made me fully understand why they're called make up "artist". MUCH more brushes than I usually use for my acrylic painting...
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!
really like how you explain makeup so well. I usually get bored by informative videos but you are so good at keeping it interesting. love🖤
Yes! A video on face brushes would be amazing
As someone with hooded eyelids I give you my sincerest thanks. I need to use my neglected medium sized blending brushes for eyeshadow application. For years I've been using a large blending brush and my eye looks never come out the way I intended.
