My manager at work wears her makeup like this every day AND she does not blend it well. She looks like she has a makeup beard all the time. I don't get it.
I don't think people realize that a big aspect of older skin is how much it stretches. It's not just a change in texture. Your skin texture is affected by more than just age. It can change because of the hardness of the water in your home or dry vs humid climates. I really wish more people would research skin before they tell people they have mature skin in their 30s
She just said that her skin is old-ER, not old or mature. She' s just spitting facts: what worked perfectly (especially complexion products) five-ten years ago, doesn' t work anymore in your late 30’ s and sharing with us the gem she has found. We are all older every single day we keep on being alive.
As a super pale girlie myself, I don't really think that blush shade is the best choice. I agree with Robert that the wrong shade can appear like a bruise.
I have that color tone on my face naturally because of sun damage when I was a really young kid and I have banana pancakes sensitive skin so the sun impacts me more than most. The way she used it looks like skin damage. You can't really tell in my pfp because I color corrected but essentially she put on too much of that color. If she were to apply it very delicately, you can get really stunning looks as a yt person with that color. You just have to be uber careful because it's too much of a contrast from light skin.
Honestly if she didn't put it on her chin and forehead i could see it looking nice to be honest, I think it's placement / amount that made it look odd. With rare beauty I would not put this much blush even if it was a shade that was more suitable for my pale skin
I have to believe the girl with the blush was doing satire or rage bait. But she does have a point, if you like your makeup, then it mostly doesn't matter if other people dont. (Except maybe at work)
I knew it! These silly videos are such thinly veiled bait! I feel bad for people who fall in and comment! Please stop!! Once they stop getting comments they might give up…so please don’t fall for this idiocy.

6:57 I’m black so I don’t understand the obsession with tanning. However I believe all skin tones are beautiful whether you’re the deepest of the deep or palest of the pale your skin is beautiful.

I'm very fair skinned without a tan and have stopped tanning the past few years for health reasons. People are constantly pointing out how I should start tanning again because I don't look as attractive without one. It's very odd how invested people get about other people's skin lol. I do think that there is an overall change though in accepting our natural skin tones, so hopefully it will continue to trend positively in the coming years!

I'm in my 60's, and have taken very good care of my skin. People comment on my nice skin still, and it is nice for my age. But I have only considered my skin "mature" or "older" in the last 4 or 5 years. It's a matter of getting much drier, and dealing with some crepey skin around your eyes, and things like that. I wish I had my 37-year-old skin back! Believe me, your skin is still young in your 30's, don't rush it :)
I'm 52, and my skin is definitely "older skin", due to lifestyle choices and addiction. I wear foundation all the time and look perfectly fine. It's just a matter of finding the right one for you, and using less , ( and powder is a BIG no no,)! At the end of the day, it's up to the individual. Also, 37 definitely isn't older skin!
If I may ask, how did your skin change, if at all, during menopause? Asking everyone who's going through it. I always looked 18-20 years younger, I avoid the sun, super pale. During perimenopause I got drier skin so adjusted my routine. 6 months after my last period, OOF 😢 My eyelids are so thin, the mattest shadow creates creases. Cream anything creates wrinkles that weren't there! Powder is definitely out. I just do my eyebrows well, and use a Korean lip stain from the center of my lips. A little Nars blush on outer cheeks and the center of my eyelids, blended like crazy. A DOT of clear gloss on my lips and in the center of each eyelid. Even then the gloss can create wrinkles, depends on the brand.
Blush girl is using a wild amount of that rare beauty liquid blush. It's so pigmented! She could absolutely use that color if she just used less of it.
6:58 There’s nothing wrong with being pale 😭 (fair is light, pale is super light) the tanning obsession is scary, especially when it’s costing you your skin health.
@@tanyapoe5490 I couldn't handle that. When we do get a summer, I complain. Then I love it when we get to autumn and winter. People think I'm nuts when I say, "Oh no, it's sunny 🤣
I'm 41 and yeah I have more mature skin than a 20 year old but I wouldn't call it old lady skin, lol. It's just different. There's so many things that can play a part in how your skin looks beyond just how many years you've existed on the earth.
not just that, a pronounced, high cupid’s bow gives my lips height and more fullness. I’d rather do that than erase it and make my top lip a straight line like a sausage
I have such a deep one, the middle of my top lip is almost invisible when I close my lips. I would never connect the top of my two points, but I probably wouldn't follow my natural lip line either, if I were lining my lips and using a dark lip color (which I almost never do).
Same! Mine is very pronounced and my lips are tall and pointy lol and this and any hack meant to create a line there looks ridiculous on me. Like I’m trying to create a 30s starlet look. I just can’t do it and it’s so annoying when TikTok artists all act like everyone should be doing this. It looks bad on most people.
Mine is very pointy and a strong M shape. I try and round mine as much as possible. I sometimes cover it but I just prefer the way that it looks on me 😊
Sometimes it's also bc they want to make their lips appear a lot bigger, but following their natural cupids bow make it looks harsh, while doing a softer kinda blur lip and going above their cupids bow looks more natural
@@LP-ct9nk Something very popular in my area is a procedure with Botox called the "Russian Lip Flip" which involves (allegedly) making your upper lip look bigger by flipping out some of the inside of your upper lip. To me, it looks ghastly but it's popular just the same. As I age, my lips are thinning and I'm just going along for the ride.
Yeah, not having an embossed cupid's bow/lip line is so common now because of fillers. I really prefer the look of a defined ridge, but that's just personal taste.
@@Andrea-tm4rwAgreed. I have SUPER deep Cupid's bow. Like the middle of my lip almost doesn't show 😂. If I outline them right on, it looks incredibly harsh.
While I completely believe that any skin tone/eye colour/ depth of colouration can make any colour work if you want to, I also believe there's a certain type of person who cannot bear any suggestion that something may not be specifically aimed at them. And if they want to make their point by looking like they've been caught in the desert for 3 days, they are certainly entitled to do that.
No need to mock them for it, it hurts no one. There are also certainly people who get a bit heated when people don’t follow the same rules as them when they have no obligation to do so. So.. She said she doesn’t care, she thinks she looks good and she’s doing it for her, what business is it of ours to insult her about it?
@table2.0 It's more that she's going to look back and feel dumb. And is obviously getting defensive about race, which is not a good look. That's a great blush for her, but there's no need to use a fuckton, and that blending technique is just bad painting. I hope it's satire, I feel bad for her future self.
@@therealJamieJoy yeah I don't think she should say it's not meant for "white people" and instead say not meant for "lighter skin tones" or something like that. White people aren't the only ones who can have pale skin tones.
Can I just say that I LOVE when your animals have wandered into the room during your videos? The immediate vocal tone switch into baby talking them is SO REAL and I love it lmao.
Same! I was so embarrassed growing up because I'm so pale and a little translucent because of a genetic disorder, so my veins really show. But now I think of myself as a blue and pale zebra and embrace it. I also agree that all skin tones are gorgeous.
@@montialarson same, people are so ignorant. I don’t how how many times I was asked if I was ill! My daughter is the same so I’m quick to let people know she’s just got her mums skin x
Agreed! I hated my skin tone when I was younger. I was teased for being so pale. People truly didn’t understand that I cannot tan. My skin is not capable of it. I’m fine with my skin tone now and I wear sunblock religiously so it looks like I don’t leave the house but I swear that I do. I also joke that I glow underwater. 😂
As a pale as a ghost girl - I adore deep, cranberry toned blushes! But it's all about styling it imo. I have grunge aesthetic with goth vibes, so when I do makeup, I want it to look unnatural, often making me look more tired and "sick", so it fits well. However - if I wanted to go for "makeup no makeup" look, then yeah, this tone of blush just doesn't make sense (on a pale skin) lol Just know what you going for and what fits your vibe. Gotta know your makeup theory to break it
Same. I love deep, pigmented blushes. Some of my favorites are deep mauve shades and maroon - it’s all about application/blending. I get where people are coming from that certain shades compliment certain tones better, but that’s where the buck stops: complimenting ≠ the only shades one should ever wear, and man is it depressing to hear how others are telling people they can’t wear X/Y/Z because they don’t have this or that skin tone. Sucks the joy out of makeup as a whole when people start ragging on others for a style they enjoy wearing.
@@TwoBs Exacly! Educating about what shades are more complementing and are fitting best for certain skin tones, as a *general* rule? Great! Telling people that they can *only* use these shades? Sounds stuck up and boring. Just let people have fun, not everyone does makeup to have a "natural" look.
Same here! I use purple for everyday blush and wine\dusty red for more extravagant looks. Pink looks somewhat unnatural on me but it can be a vibe too sometimes. Makeup is for fun, not for conformism!
I miss real MUAs and real GRWM- I actually learned from them. I’m oldish (45) but love makeup but I don’t do tik tok….where I hear anyone can be a “pro” I appreciate you and Soph (a couple others) for still giving us makeup content
Also 45 here! I'm having to learn more about working with my skin as it is now, particularly eye looks since the crepier skin messes with texture and blending. I adore makeup and using it in new ways, so I don't mind!
7:43 this girl is auditioning for 5 minutes crafts 😂 Pardon me for saying this, but I'm just as distracted and disturbed at the unblended eyeshadow as the tongue to lip action.
13:40 not to mention the skin tint turned the color of the blush….yes you can use it but be smart about it. It’s not flattering if you turn your foundation hot pink.
As a person with pale skin tone, we are blessed with the possibility of using any colour we wish because we are, quite literally, a white paper and able to rock any colour. That said, sometimes it's necessary to be quite conservative and delicate with how you wish to apply colours, because they can look too much very easily.
I'm almost 60 and have great skin thanks to my mom. It's always a bit insulting to hear people talk about older skin or mature skin. I wish our society would just embrace our differences instead of pointing them out.
I'm a bridal makeup artist and trust me, wome hoping bridesmaids sit in my chair with terribly dry and flakes skin. Then I also have mothers of the bride and groom who have excellent, smooth and moisturized skin! We artists are actually on a campaign to end the term mature skin for that reason
I mean. Its not offensive. Its relevant to how you do makeup and the products you should use because your skins texture, elasticity, moisture rention etc is different than a 20something.... glad YOU have great skin so idk why its even the least bit insulting to you if it doesnt apply.... but for many of us, we arent as blessed to have perfect baby skin and have had to change our approach to makeup to accommodate the realities of aging.....
I hope the pallette collab with Blend Bunny sales are going well. I ordered mine right away and am now waiting anxiously for it to arrive. I got the bundle! Beautiful job, Robert!
I really appreciate that you call out how people putting the label of old/mature skin on people in their 30's and pointing out how ridiculous it is. It means so much to me to see that you don't tolerate that nonsense and that you explain that different skin types and other factors play a role in what can be going on. I hate it so much to see all this "old" label being shoved on me now that I'm in my early 30's especially since I already have so much anxiety around it since all the messaging growing up in media for young girls was that turning 30 meant your life was over. And in that for me personally I'm an adult survivor of childhood @buse and neglect so I know that the stress and trauma has done damage and it is only recently that I've started be able to get access to skin care and be able to that it all just really further adds to this anxiety and stress about my age and how I look. I wish the messaging in regards to skin care across the board could just be about finding what your specific skin needs are and not "mature" vs "old" "young" etc (with certain exceptions because certain formulations/products are not meant to be used by people under certain ages because it can do damage to their skin since they are still growing as I understand.)
Random People and even family members and close friends say I need some sun / tan …. And ask me where is your tan? Don’t you live in Florida? …… I look ghostly/ dead and not healthy……. Anyway …… for the past 20 yrs ….. sunscreen ….. after having 6inches cut out of my upper back because of skin cancer ! 58 yrs . Old …… embrace your uniqueness / beauty
Imagine Rihanna disguising her beautiful Cupid’s bow? I look ridiculous drawing a line and not following my natural V of my lips. Never understood why people would want to do that.
Robert, I have to say I truly LOVE your content. I’ve been a MUA for 13 years now, and some of these newer trends really surprise and confuse me. I so appreciate your kindness, politeness and honesty. I find myself constantly nodding my head and saying “yes!” while watching you. You’re also hilarious 😂 I just adore you! ❤
@@nicolecheyenne7937 exactly. She knows she's saying things that are really inflammatory and doing things that look just plain wrong. But it gets her clicks and comments and attention
Foundation suggestions for skin with hyperpigmentation, scars from cystic acne and car accident, please? I really enjoy my makeup... It's my happy place. My issue is that I keep spending on all the wrong foundations. I have all this makeup and have so many ideas, but I can't find a foundation that makes me feel confident... Makes me feel pretty. Any suggestions or recommendations would greatly appreciated!!! And to Robert and James, I'm so glad that I found you guys. I don't think y'all realize how much you guys do for individuals like myself. You and a hand full of creators have pulled me out of my darkness and helped me manage my mental monsters, and for this I thank y'all everyday! I know it serious, but y'all were a big part of why I'm still here... Y'all saved my life! I hope one day I will be able to tell y'all my story, and how y'all were a blessing in my life. Great things are coming for y'all... And y'all deserve every bit of it!!! Do y'all ever plan to do any meet and great in the US? Just wondering... Lol! Keep being y'all's true selves... I love y'all so very much. ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜 Robert, Your collab with Blend Bunny was stunning!!! Congratulations, bc I know you love the brand!
I have a lot of your same issues and I bought so many foundations. I have cystic acne scars from lupus. I had perfect skin. I had someone tell me to try Nars and it has saved my life. I tried Charlotte tillbury and took that crap back. I have probably a good 500 bucks in foundation. Nars covers and I'm 46. I even have a line down my forehead from hitting it.
The “older skin” video, which seems like an ad for a foundation to me, reminded me of how helpful Geek Out Of Waters page is (honestly don’t know how I found her, might have been you but if not check her out!) She reviews and tests foundations in super consistent ways and led me to a foundation i would have never tried otherwise but is amazing for my dry-ish mature-ish skin
Yes!! I love her reviews because we get to see the actual skin up close and how it performs. It’s so helpful. I’m only 38 but I do have acne, textured skin. And we wear the same color of foundations so that’s helpful too.
Can I just say I can’t stand the Cupid’s bow thing?? To me it looks obvious on everyone the way you pointed out in the beginning on yourself. Just can’t unsee it 😩
Cupidsbow is the most beautiful part of the entire face. I love a pronounced Cupidsbow. (If I make you feel more comfortable filled out, cool. But don't let anyone tell you that you have to fill it in if you feel nicer without it)
I’m in my early fifties and my breakouts are only just starting to calm down. I actually have good skin days most of the week, now! I don’t know if it’s because of my age, or that I’ve finally found a skincare routine that works for me (maybe both). I was using makeup for most of my “youth” like a mask to cover-up my imperfections. Now that I’m older (with older skin, LoL) I wear much less makeup - no foundation whatsoever just powder. I don’t understand ANY of the GRWM posts; these are (mostly) beautiful women who don’t need to disguise their skin! They just seem like victims of the makeup industry. As someone once said, “the math ain’t mathin’ !” 😅
I have a scar that runs from my hairline vertically down through my brow from an accident as a child; I LOVE how you choose not to fill it all the time. Thankyou! ❤❤
Great video Robert! I worked for a company that required all of the women had to have makeup on. When I got very sick, with a rare autoimmune disorder. Since then I’ve only worn makeup a few times and I feel like a teenager figuring out what’s good for me what isn’t. Your videos are so great and I’ve learned a lot. You’re a gem Robert! Anyone who gets their make up done by you are incredibly lucky! Sorry for the novel of a comment! Much love from Kristin in Oklahoma 👻🎃
I use darker maroon blush, now I am not as light in color as the girl in the video. I have a grandmother that is full blooded Native American. I think those darker blushes look amazing on me.
I struggle with covering up my lupus mylar rash enough so that I feel good about my makeup, and I have mixed feelings on people purposely doing their makeup in a way that looks like a sign of illness whether they realize it or not. Oh art 🤷♀️😮💨
Hi ROBERT!!! I recently bought the Divination palette and I was hoping that I could possibly get you to make a video of you making 3 or more looks with it for inspiration ❤😊
As a 43 year old with mature skin - THANK YOU. So tired of seeing these young - and genuinely young - call their skin "old" is frustrating. And I really appreciate that you said mature skin is a skin TYPE. That's lovely!
I see Emily Wood’s videos everywhere and somehow her makeup always ends up looking cute. She will put on lime green and blue eyeshadow all over her lids and somehow it looks amazing
The young lady with the blush would have been perfectly fine if she did one dot on each cheek, blended and took what’s left on the brush for a flush on the ridge of the nose, forehead, and chin. As a darker skinned person , I wouldn’t even use this much blush of any shade.
I am so tired of the cupids bow trend because every time I try it, it looks horrendous. I have a defined cupids bow and it looks way better when I just line my lips the shape they are. For so long I tried lining my lips in that way in the video, and felt like I just had the ugliest lip shape ever because it never worked.
People in their late 20 s believing they need mature skin products, I have met them. The old, from early 2000s, olay ads and then they showed how the same model has been using it for 15 years of adverts and how amazing her skin looked after 15 years of olay at 37!!!!! Of course her skin looked great, she's a 37 yo model! It's such a shame how mostly women are targeted about how amazingly old they are getting when in reality their brains have barely stopped developing. We are made to feel over the hill and used up once we are barely a third of the way through an average life time. Let us enjoy what we have while we have it!
wanted to say my good fortune lip gloss came from your divination collection and I'm obsessed!!! It turns to the perfect pink that I wish my lips actually were! It's amazing and congrats again on the collab!!!! 💜
For those wondering, here's a translation of the captions on the absurd contour video: "Cli (short for client, which is very similar in Portuguese): I want you to make my face thinner! MUA: Say no more..."
about the last one, I think this blush would look nice on her using less quantity and a more blended technique, instead of making an "under painting" like she said and did
When you deliberately horribly misuse makeup not designed for your tone and make it look awful like this, while ALSO commenting about the makeup not being "for" your skin tone, it screams rage bait lol
Listen, I'm so white that my husband says we don't need electricity, that I just have to show my legs 😂 and I love it, cause my skin isn't going to end up looking like burnt bacon.
I've had cancer but not skin under any circumstances use sun beds have a spray tan or use self tanner it's come a long way in 2024 and looks the part xx
Ppl in their 30's are saying 'older' skin bc TikTok is obsessed with looking younger. Even ppl in their 20's are saying they have old skin. Which is ridiculous. I'm almost 50. I'm getting older skin bc I'm older. Lol. That lipstick tongue thing was nasty.
"Sunkissed" is more like sunburnt. She needs way less to make it really work for her. The blush could look absolutely beautiful on her skin tone with proper applications.
That blush color on her is not “sun kissed” it is deep fried
If she used less of it, it would be flattering. The intensity and placement she used reads more as skin irritation.
She looks like she's been smacked around but the bruises haved formed yet and it makes me uncomfortable. Especially the chin.
if she had used a lil dab it could've been so pretty
It looks like a bruise/sun burn on her especially with how much she applied.
Looks like she sat in an oven. 😂
Crying at calling that bridal makeup Gigachad😭 It’s so true tho! Like… what were they doing?
My manager at work wears her makeup like this every day AND she does not blend it well. She looks like she has a makeup beard all the time. I don't get it.

I've grown really tired of being inundated with women with nearly flawless skin advertising products for "older" skin. It's truly aggravating. 😫
That’s why I love the RMS ads. So refreshing.

i'm 38 and i get ID'd all the time. frig off tiktokk lady.
Also I'm 37 and I have better skin now than I did when I was younger 🤷🏻♀️ I think a lot of us 80s babies probably do
@@nicola_pink same x
And she had the audacity to not have a single wrinkle! I'm in my 50s and would kill to have my 37 year old skin back. 😂
I'm 41 and yeah I have more mature skin than a 20 year old but I wouldn't call it old lady skin, lol. It's just different. There's so many things that can play a part in how your skin looks beyond just how many years you've existed on the earth.
It’s called your philtrum. I have a pronounced philtrum also, so filling in my Cupid’s bow is a huge nope.😂
ironically the cupids bow is an area of the body that people subconsciously see as attractive
so deleting it is so silly to me
not just that, a pronounced, high cupid’s bow gives my lips height and more fullness. I’d rather do that than erase it and make my top lip a straight line like a sausage
I have such a deep one, the middle of my top lip is almost invisible when I close my lips. I would never connect the top of my two points, but I probably wouldn't follow my natural lip line either, if I were lining my lips and using a dark lip color (which I almost never do).
Same! Mine is very pronounced and my lips are tall and pointy lol and this and any hack meant to create a line there looks ridiculous on me. Like I’m trying to create a 30s starlet look. I just can’t do it and it’s so annoying when TikTok artists all act like everyone should be doing this. It looks bad on most people.
I don't understand the cupids bow erasure these days lol
Why would one want to disguise their Cupid's bow? That's one of my favorite parts of the face.
I’ve always wondered this, too. I love mine and always define it.
@@trophybuckle3235me too!
I guess some people don’t like the definition or the shape of their Cupid’s bow?
Mine is very pointy and a strong M shape. I try and round mine as much as possible. I sometimes cover it but I just prefer the way that it looks on me 😊
Everyone I've seen this on, it looks like they have a partial chocolate milk mustache. It's super obvious. Especially, when they add gloss on top.
I feel like the “hiding the Cupid’s bow” hack is due to the prevalence of lip fillers and people thinking it’s the desired look to go for
Sometimes it's also bc they want to make their lips appear a lot bigger, but following their natural cupids bow make it looks harsh, while doing a softer kinda blur lip and going above their cupids bow looks more natural
i always highlight my cupids bow, which is already pronounced, and get a ton of compliments
@@LP-ct9nk Something very popular in my area is a procedure with Botox called the "Russian Lip Flip" which involves (allegedly) making your upper lip look bigger by flipping out some of the inside of your upper lip. To me, it looks ghastly but it's popular just the same. As I age, my lips are thinning and I'm just going along for the ride.
Yeah, not having an embossed cupid's bow/lip line is so common now because of fillers. I really prefer the look of a defined ridge, but that's just personal taste.
@@Andrea-tm4rwAgreed. I have SUPER deep Cupid's bow. Like the middle of my lip almost doesn't show 😂. If I outline them right on, it looks incredibly harsh.
11:12 The blush might have been okay if she didn't cover her entire face in it.
I thought the same thing, that if she used way less and sheared it out it would have been fine 😂
I wonder if she was underpainting.
It really looks like when I have my rosacea flare.
Shes being sarcastic 😆 shes just kidding
While I completely believe that any skin tone/eye colour/ depth of colouration can make any colour work if you want to, I also believe there's a certain type of person who cannot bear any suggestion that something may not be specifically aimed at them. And if they want to make their point by looking like they've been caught in the desert for 3 days, they are certainly entitled to do that.
No need to mock them for it, it hurts no one.
There are also certainly people who get a bit heated when people don’t follow the same rules as them when they have no obligation to do so. So..
She said she doesn’t care, she thinks she looks good and she’s doing it for her, what business is it of ours to insult her about it?
@table2.0 It's more that she's going to look back and feel dumb. And is obviously getting defensive about race, which is not a good look. That's a great blush for her, but there's no need to use a fuckton, and that blending technique is just bad painting. I hope it's satire, I feel bad for her future self.
I'm calling it: her little stunt was racist. She should learn how to use blush before screaming it wasn't made for her color.
@@therealJamieJoy yeah I don't think she should say it's not meant for "white people" and instead say not meant for "lighter skin tones" or something like that. White people aren't the only ones who can have pale skin tones.
Can I just say that I LOVE when your animals have wandered into the room during your videos? The immediate vocal tone switch into baby talking them is SO REAL and I love it lmao.
The max factor video was absolutely an undisclosed ad
I would love robert to read bedtime stories for adults, his voice is brilliant
Sunkissed??? Baby, thats a burn
Road rash
@@GreenEyedGumby😂
Sun punched
The sunbed one is so sad. I am so pale I have a blue tinge 😂 I embrace it now. I wish everyone would love their skin tone x
Same! I was so embarrassed growing up because I'm so pale and a little translucent because of a genetic disorder, so my veins really show. But now I think of myself as a blue and pale zebra and embrace it. I also agree that all skin tones are gorgeous.
@@montialarson same, people are so ignorant. I don’t how how many times I was asked if I was ill! My daughter is the same so I’m quick to let people know she’s just got her mums skin x
I know this is about living ourselves but I would be so jealous of your skin tone
@@montialarson Team Zebra unite!
Agreed! I hated my skin tone when I was younger. I was teased for being so pale. People truly didn’t understand that I cannot tan. My skin is not capable of it. I’m fine with my skin tone now and I wear sunblock religiously so it looks like I don’t leave the house but I swear that I do. I also joke that I glow underwater. 😂
I love how you’re always honest, but still always sweet and respectful ❤
As a pale as a ghost girl - I adore deep, cranberry toned blushes! But it's all about styling it imo. I have grunge aesthetic with goth vibes, so when I do makeup, I want it to look unnatural, often making me look more tired and "sick", so it fits well.
However - if I wanted to go for "makeup no makeup" look, then yeah, this tone of blush just doesn't make sense (on a pale skin) lol
Just know what you going for and what fits your vibe. Gotta know your makeup theory to break it
Same. I love deep, pigmented blushes. Some of my favorites are deep mauve shades and maroon - it’s all about application/blending.
I get where people are coming from that certain shades compliment certain tones better, but that’s where the buck stops: complimenting ≠ the only shades one should ever wear, and man is it depressing to hear how others are telling people they can’t wear X/Y/Z because they don’t have this or that skin tone. Sucks the joy out of makeup as a whole when people start ragging on others for a style they enjoy wearing.
@@TwoBs
Exacly!
Educating about what shades are more complementing and are fitting best for certain skin tones, as a *general* rule? Great!
Telling people that they can *only* use these shades? Sounds stuck up and boring.
Just let people have fun, not everyone does makeup to have a "natural" look.
Same here! I use purple for everyday blush and wine\dusty red for more extravagant looks. Pink looks somewhat unnatural on me but it can be a vibe too sometimes. Makeup is for fun, not for conformism!
I miss real MUAs and real GRWM- I actually learned from them. I’m oldish (45) but love makeup but I don’t do tik tok….where I hear anyone can be a “pro”
I appreciate you and Soph (a couple others) for still giving us makeup content
You ain't oldish at 45! Never say oldish again ❤ xx
Also 45 here! I'm having to learn more about working with my skin as it is now, particularly eye looks since the crepier skin messes with texture and blending. I adore makeup and using it in new ways, so I don't mind!
Oldish? You just arrived at half time, please don't put yourself down like that. You're middle aged.
7:43 this girl is auditioning for 5 minutes crafts 😂 Pardon me for saying this, but I'm just as distracted and disturbed at the unblended eyeshadow as the tongue to lip action.
I hope it's satire. 😅
It was the giant false lashes for me.
the unblended, streakt eyeshadow, the crazy baby pink on warm tan skin, the TONGUE TO LIP ACTION this girl......
@@montialarson i'm afraid it's not. She's on instagram doing her thing🤭
@@whizkeysh0tTell me about it she did the most gaudy desi eye makeup. The tongue thing was for attention so congrats to her she got the engagement.
13:40 not to mention the skin tint turned the color of the blush….yes you can use it but be smart about it. It’s not flattering if you turn your foundation hot pink.
As a person with pale skin tone, we are blessed with the possibility of using any colour we wish because we are, quite literally, a white paper and able to rock any colour. That said, sometimes it's necessary to be quite conservative and delicate with how you wish to apply colours, because they can look too much very easily.
No. Undertones still matter even if youre pale
I'm almost 60 and have great skin thanks to my mom. It's always a bit insulting to hear people talk about older skin or mature skin. I wish our society would just embrace our differences instead of pointing them out.
Yes. Categorizing and labeling everything doesn’t serve.
I'm a bridal makeup artist and trust me, wome hoping bridesmaids sit in my chair with terribly dry and flakes skin. Then I also have mothers of the bride and groom who have excellent, smooth and moisturized skin! We artists are actually on a campaign to end the term mature skin for that reason
I mean. Its not offensive. Its relevant to how you do makeup and the products you should use because your skins texture, elasticity, moisture rention etc is different than a 20something.... glad YOU have great skin so idk why its even the least bit insulting to you if it doesnt apply.... but for many of us, we arent as blessed to have perfect baby skin and have had to change our approach to makeup to accommodate the realities of aging.....
Robert's voice is so cute, i could listen to him for hours❤
You gotta hear it when he curses. I think it's so cute lol.
I hope the pallette collab with Blend Bunny sales are going well. I ordered mine right away and am now waiting anxiously for it to arrive. I got the bundle! Beautiful job, Robert!
That slight laugh of let me explain the insanity. 😂 hilarious.
I really appreciate that you call out how people putting the label of old/mature skin on people in their 30's and pointing out how ridiculous it is. It means so much to me to see that you don't tolerate that nonsense and that you explain that different skin types and other factors play a role in what can be going on.
I hate it so much to see all this "old" label being shoved on me now that I'm in my early 30's especially since I already have so much anxiety around it since all the messaging growing up in media for young girls was that turning 30 meant your life was over.
And in that for me personally I'm an adult survivor of childhood @buse and neglect so I know that the stress and trauma has done damage and it is only recently that I've started be able to get access to skin care and be able to that it all just really further adds to this anxiety and stress about my age and how I look.
I wish the messaging in regards to skin care across the board could just be about finding what your specific skin needs are and not "mature" vs "old" "young" etc (with certain exceptions because certain formulations/products are not meant to be used by people under certain ages because it can do damage to their skin since they are still growing as I understand.)
6:47 I swear it pisses me off every time somebody goes "I can't possibly be pale" when they naturally are. Girl learn to embrace who you actually are.
Random People and even family members and close friends say I need some sun / tan …. And ask me where is your tan? Don’t you live in Florida? …… I look ghostly/ dead and not healthy……. Anyway …… for the past 20 yrs ….. sunscreen ….. after having 6inches cut out of my upper back because of skin cancer ! 58 yrs . Old …… embrace your uniqueness / beauty
Pale skin is way more beautiful than a fake tan they look so tacky
Imagine Rihanna disguising her beautiful Cupid’s bow? I look ridiculous drawing a line and not following my natural V of my lips. Never understood why people would want to do that.
Robert, I have to say I truly LOVE your content. I’ve been a MUA for 13 years now, and some of these newer trends really surprise and confuse me. I so appreciate your kindness, politeness and honesty. I find myself constantly nodding my head and saying “yes!” while watching you. You’re also hilarious 😂 I just adore you! ❤
13:08 “Use our own initiative as people with brains” 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀 I’m getting that on a t-shirt
1:28 that is called a Philtrum. It refers to the dipped area between your nose and the cupids bow.
please make a video on the ‘high, medium, low contrast makeup’ like going into if it’s needed, if it work etc🙏🏽
Have you seen Jen Phelps recent video on it or Kackie’s? Very good.
I think that blush girl is probably just rage baiting...
She must be because who would actually seriously put that amount of blush on their chin?
@@nicolecheyenne7937 exactly. She knows she's saying things that are really inflammatory and doing things that look just plain wrong. But it gets her clicks and comments and attention
Foundation suggestions for skin with hyperpigmentation, scars from cystic acne and car accident, please? I really enjoy my makeup... It's my happy place. My issue is that I keep spending on all the wrong foundations. I have all this makeup and have so many ideas, but I can't find a foundation that makes me feel confident... Makes me feel pretty. Any suggestions or recommendations would greatly appreciated!!!
And to Robert and James,
I'm so glad that I found you guys. I don't think y'all realize how much you guys do for individuals like myself. You and a hand full of creators have pulled me out of my darkness and helped me manage my mental monsters, and for this I thank y'all everyday! I know it serious, but y'all were a big part of why I'm still here... Y'all saved my life!
I hope one day I will be able to tell y'all my story, and how y'all were a blessing in my life.
Great things are coming for y'all... And y'all deserve every bit of it!!!
Do y'all ever plan to do any meet and great in the US? Just wondering... Lol!
Keep being y'all's true selves...
I love y'all so very much.
❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
Robert,
Your collab with Blend Bunny was stunning!!! Congratulations, bc I know you love the brand!
I have a lot of your same issues and I bought so many foundations. I have cystic acne scars from lupus. I had perfect skin. I had someone tell me to try Nars and it has saved my life. I tried Charlotte tillbury and took that crap back. I have probably a good 500 bucks in foundation. Nars covers and I'm 46. I even have a line down my forehead from hitting it.
The air brush one just screams "MOISTURIZE ME!" IYKYK
Cassandra😊
I don’t even like that first “hack” on that lady. I like a defined cupid’s bow, eliminating it with pencil doesn’t look good to my eyes.
Same. I just love my cupid's now and natural lip shape, and those fine lip lines
I dont like how a sharp defined cupids bow looks to my eyes. Everyone is different and does what they like ❤
@@shineseeker7well that’s rude, innit
The tongue lipstick thing has gotta be rage bait. Absolutely disgusting to watch.
The little tongue going back and forth 😂
@@clemfandango-se1wj 😂 not the bunny tongue I want to see LOL
How do you NOT get makeup on your teeth doing it like that 😅
12:50…she has to be a troll😂
i really hope so 😭
Seriously! Lol
She is 😆 shes so silly
In my mid 40’s now I am eternally grateful I spent my 20’s being emo and hating the sun and my 30’s working inside and rarely seeing daylight. 😂😂😂
The “older skin” video, which seems like an ad for a foundation to me, reminded me of how helpful Geek Out Of Waters page is (honestly don’t know how I found her, might have been you but if not check her out!) She reviews and tests foundations in super consistent ways and led me to a foundation i would have never tried otherwise but is amazing for my dry-ish mature-ish skin
Yes!! I love her reviews because we get to see the actual skin up close and how it performs. It’s so helpful. I’m only 38 but I do have acne, textured skin. And we wear the same color of foundations so that’s helpful too.
1:03 any time I ever do that it looks stupid irl. I have a very defined cupids bow.
Same!
Can I just say I can’t stand the Cupid’s bow thing?? To me it looks obvious on everyone the way you pointed out in the beginning on yourself. Just can’t unsee it 😩
Agreed! It looks like they have poor vision and can't follow the line of their own lips.
Yes! I always want to wipe a Kleenex on their upper lip to get rid of where they drunk-lined their lip, 😂. It looks like they can’t apply makeup
Yes! It just looks awful to me!
13:46 The subtle giggles always make me laugh! 🤣🤣
Cupidsbow is the most beautiful part of the entire face. I love a pronounced Cupidsbow. (If I make you feel more comfortable filled out, cool. But don't let anyone tell you that you have to fill it in if you feel nicer without it)
I adore Robert when he's trying hard to give constructive criticism while being so, so gentle.
Robert’s reactions are THE BEST!!
You have the loveliest look on your face when you’re watching the videos before commenting…. Really sweet and lovely.
I have pink skin and she just gave herself a sunburn with blush. She did the exact opposite of what I try to do every day, get rid of the redness.
I’m in my early fifties and my breakouts are only just starting to calm down. I actually have good skin days most of the week, now! I don’t know if it’s because of my age, or that I’ve finally found a skincare routine that works for me (maybe both). I was using makeup for most of my “youth” like a mask to cover-up my imperfections. Now that I’m older (with older skin, LoL) I wear much less makeup - no foundation whatsoever just powder. I don’t understand ANY of the GRWM posts; these are (mostly) beautiful women who don’t need to disguise their skin! They just seem like victims of the makeup industry. As someone once said, “the math ain’t mathin’ !” 😅
When you said "GigaChad" I just lost my freaking mind! 😂😂😂😂😂
I have a scar that runs from my hairline vertically down through my brow from an accident as a child; I LOVE how you choose not to fill it all the time. Thankyou! ❤❤
Great video Robert! I worked for a company that required all of the women had to have makeup on. When I got very sick, with a rare autoimmune disorder. Since then I’ve only worn makeup a few times and I feel like a teenager figuring out what’s good for me what isn’t. Your videos are so great and I’ve learned a lot. You’re a gem Robert! Anyone who gets their make up done by you are incredibly lucky! Sorry for the novel of a comment! Much love from Kristin in Oklahoma 👻🎃
Giga Chad cosplay absolutely sent me! You are a truly a wordsmith Robert.
I use darker maroon blush, now I am not as light in color as the girl in the video. I have a grandmother that is full blooded Native American. I think those darker blushes look amazing on me.
He was really nice to the person who put too much blush all over their face and made it look like they had frost bite of the face. Robert is goals.
I struggle with covering up my lupus mylar rash enough so that I feel good about my makeup, and I have mixed feelings on people purposely doing their makeup in a way that looks like a sign of illness whether they realize it or not. Oh art 🤷♀️😮💨
Hi ROBERT!!! I recently bought the Divination palette and I was hoping that I could possibly get you to make a video of you making 3 or more looks with it for inspiration ❤😊
Yes yes yes please 🙏
i love what you have on your lips in this video !! it looks so pretty
@deathofastrawberryy I loved it too. Is Robert wearing that purple gloss balm from his Blend Bunny collab? I think it is. Anyone else know?
As a 43 year old with mature skin - THANK YOU. So tired of seeing these young - and genuinely young - call their skin "old" is frustrating. And I really appreciate that you said mature skin is a skin TYPE. That's lovely!
Complimenting where you originally get flushed I believe is better in blush placement, always loving Robert’s advice 🖤
I see Emily Wood’s videos everywhere and somehow her makeup always ends up looking cute. She will put on lime green and blue eyeshadow all over her lids and somehow it looks amazing
The young lady with the blush would have been perfectly fine if she did one dot on each cheek, blended and took what’s left on the brush for a flush on the ridge of the nose, forehead, and chin. As a darker skinned person , I wouldn’t even use this much blush of any shade.
Yeah, with the first one, my immediate thought was “not with my cupid’s bow, that’d look silly”
Philtrum is the word you're looking for-- that thingy on your upper lip. 😀
That bride looks like Lord Farquad
A little like Madonna alien face too imo 😂
I am so tired of the cupids bow trend because every time I try it, it looks horrendous. I have a defined cupids bow and it looks way better when I just line my lips the shape they are. For so long I tried lining my lips in that way in the video, and felt like I just had the ugliest lip shape ever because it never worked.
That blush looked like rosacea all over her face. She needs to ease up on the application.
People in their late 20 s believing they need mature skin products, I have met them. The old, from early 2000s, olay ads and then they showed how the same model has been using it for 15 years of adverts and how amazing her skin looked after 15 years of olay at 37!!!!! Of course her skin looked great, she's a 37 yo model!
It's such a shame how mostly women are targeted about how amazingly old they are getting when in reality their brains have barely stopped developing. We are made to feel over the hill and used up once we are barely a third of the way through an average life time.
Let us enjoy what we have while we have it!
The tiny chuckle when she called her skin older, perfection.
yay a Sunday video ❤❤❤
Positively ADORE you, Robert!
Ordered your palette today! Cannot wait!😍😍😍 will you do a couple of tutorials with it? I am scared to use yellow and green😅
wanted to say my good fortune lip gloss came from your divination collection and I'm obsessed!!! It turns to the perfect pink that I wish my lips actually were! It's amazing and congrats again on the collab!!!! 💜
Did she say she was 37 and OLD? 😱thank God, I’m 44 and have the skin of a toddler (just a joke btw)😅
Robert your makeup looks stunning here ❤
For those wondering, here's a translation of the captions on the absurd contour video:
"Cli (short for client, which is very similar in Portuguese): I want you to make my face thinner!
MUA: Say no more..."
about the last one, I think this blush would look nice on her using less quantity and a more blended technique, instead of making an "under painting" like she said and did
14:16 I looked at her profile, and it's definitely rage bait. Every post is very rage baitey
When you deliberately horribly misuse makeup not designed for your tone and make it look awful like this, while ALSO commenting about the makeup not being "for" your skin tone, it screams rage bait lol
Your eye color looks really pretty with this makeup look, like autumy, very warm, just so rich!!!
Listen, I'm so white that my husband says we don't need electricity, that I just have to show my legs 😂 and I love it, cause my skin isn't going to end up looking like burnt bacon.
Robert your videos are really the highlight of my life recently especially the sass 😂💜🖤
If I did the overdrawn lips, I’d look like a 3 year old that got in to their mom’s makeup. I have very defined cupids bow….pure silliness
So cute...that doesn't matter, you Just learn what doesn't Work for ya ✌🏼🥰‼️😂😂🙏❣️✌️
Your always so careful on what you say, always respectful 😊
I accent my Cupid's bow... What's wrong with that? I'm not getting this new trend of covering it. 🤷♀️
The jazzminer girl is one of those makeup trolls she does videos like that all the time 😂😂😂
I've had cancer but not skin under any circumstances use sun beds have a spray tan or use self tanner it's come a long way in 2024 and looks the part xx
‘Whatever this is called’ it’s called philtrum, and yours, like the rest of you, is gorgeous!
Was that blush girl serious or joking?
I hope she was joking, otherwise it’s just a bit sad
Her whole thing is making over the top funny / cringe makeup reviews and tutorials
Ragebait, probably.
Robert your makeup look today is STUNNING- a tutorial please ❤
13:30 girly could’ve done the dang thing….she just needs to turn it down 9,000,000 degrees
If James saw that last girl with the blush, he would be livid she actively gave herself the appearance of rosacea
Ppl in their 30's are saying 'older' skin bc TikTok is obsessed with looking younger. Even ppl in their 20's are saying they have old skin. Which is ridiculous. I'm almost 50. I'm getting older skin bc I'm older. Lol. That lipstick tongue thing was nasty.
"Sunkissed" is more like sunburnt. She needs way less to make it really work for her. The blush could look absolutely beautiful on her skin tone with proper applications.
