Y'all, in the law or not, *youtubers need to disclose for an ad in the videos, the same way Robert does.* You're getting more backlash for not disclosing from what i've seen, and it's not worth it.
Geez I wasn’t suggesting that Robert (or James) would do sponsored content without disclosure!! Here in the US, one never really knows - it should be the unspoken rule.
I don’t understand why Robert doesn’t have 10M subscribers. There’s nothing abrasive about his personality but he’s still so fun to watch, he goes in depth and gets all kinds of technical without being dull, and most of all, he KEEPS IT REAL. This makes him a UA-cam unicorn.
Completely agree! Robert is such a lovely human and a brilliant make up artist. His videos just make my day. And I always learn something! He should be winning UA-cam.
Does anyone else feel like Robert started the concealer technique that is now viral on Tik Tok? I feel like I saw him do this like a year ago (the two dots on the inside and one swipe on the outside) and all of a sudden everyone is catching up LOL. Robert is a #trendsetter
Yeah he did! its technically not "his" technique but the trend started after he explicitly put it out there. Alex Anele made a youtube video specifically on it and then it went from there. Thank god because I'm so annoyed with the concealer abuse lol.
I love that the fact that this video is sponsored is literally in the title! Love that you know the law, follow the law and have integrity and you’re entertaining and so knowledgeable.
Robert warns us about nefarious skin prep naysayers, "Anyone who tells you that prepping your skin for makeup isn't necessary? ... They're liars. They're lying to you and don't want you to succeed at life." PREACH! PREACH! Thank you and AMEN, Robert! 💜💜💜💜
I wouldn't tell anyone else it isn't necessary, but for me, I do not find it's necessary. I don't have better or worse makeup days when prepping or not prepping. I don't wear much base makeup though, so maybe that makes a difference?
@@TheSwauzz that could be part of it. The real issue is why are you wearing the makeup and what do you want out of your finished look. Do you need to appear fresh all day at work which might include 10 hours or more with commutes and over time. Is your skin super dry or very oily and you want your makeup to look as good as when it was first applied many hours later? Do you want your makeup to look natural in broad daylight and remain looking so? Do you need it to hold up with heat/humidity/hot lighting/stage? it all depends on what your goals are. It can look good when you apply it, but for how long and under what conditions? Prep and having the best skin possible can matter more than you might think. Hope this helps to answer your question! 💋💄👠
I love that you put these little time stamps / chapters into your videos. While I always watch the whole thing, it really helps when going back, trying to find specific info. This level of organized is calming AF.
Yea, I really like using E.L.F, it’s one of the few makeup brands that doesn’t make my acne worse. I started using this brand because they were recommended to me by a vegan classmate a couple of years ago. The only issue I have is that some of the eyeshadows can be a bit fragile.
I just tried it🙁 doesn't work for me. Especially make up and primer. It looks like very cheap make up. I really wanted to like this as I wanted to replace Chantecaille make up with something less expensive.
Love seeing Robert's sub count get larger every time I watch new video! Anyone else?? Sincerely, someone who has become 'really good at makeup' thanks to these videos 🤓
Anyone else do your make up and hear Robert's voice in your head with his reassuring and helpful tips. Finding him on UA-cam has made me fall back in love with make up and try new things after years of YT influencers got me thinking I was terrible at application. Ily Robert x
Same here! I hadn't worn makeup in YEARS but Robert convinced me to try it again. I may be old, but I'm not dead yet 😁 Thanks, Robert 🥰 And I can't say enough good things about elf: great quality, great price and, best of all, vegan and cruelty free 🌱💚🌱
Same! I was so "meh" and feeling like it was a chore. 25 years ago I was OBSESSED with makeup...I would walk through the MAC and Urban Decay department store displays just to stare at all the products I wanted, and I did all my friends' makeup for prom, etc...Robert was the first makeup UA-camr I ever watched and it was love at first ring click! I still trust him the most and always look to see if he has a posted opinion when I'm considering new products!
The fact that you place AD in your TITLE, is so exceptional. I’m more inclined to click someone that I stan’s video when they’re being THAT upfront, than to go through the video and hear “Thank you for sponsoring!” cuz then I have to rewatch with a different mindset. Robert won’t steer wrong whether sponsored or not, but it’s just an extra perk, and such a breath of fresh air to stan someone who’s so genuine and unproblematic that his biggest drama is an April fools joke of a makeup line 🤣
For anyone oily AND dehydrated, I love Elf's Jelly Pop Moisturizer/Cleanser, and their Plus Glow and Plus Matte line with sprays/primers etc are AMAZING
I have oily and dehydrated skin and I always thought E.L.F and other drug store brands wouldn't work on my skin until I used E.L.F primers. Now Basically my whole skin routine is drug store!
@@PS-mr3vi yes! I find water based or gel based products work best on my oily dehydrated skin for daytime anyway. Elf and WnW actually have some great skincare products!
@@DanielleNicoleMakeup i feel like everyone completely forgets about WnW! I use the Dewy Photofocus foundation and it's honestly been one of my new faves from the drugstore now that makeup has been transitioning to the "my skin but better," trend from the full coverage that's been popular. I pair it with the hydrating primer and the putty primer and it works wonderfully! Can't believe I used to pay so much for the same, if not slightly worse, results these brands give.
@@PS-mr3vi so true! I use WnW Rose Primer Serum since it's water based in the summer and it gives such a healthy glow. Also that same line has a rose spray toner that I literally use daily but I've noticed it is only sold at Walgreens, not even on the WnW website which is weird.
It's worth having a look at Jaime French for tips for older skin. She does a few demos on her a Mum and older clients (sorry Robert for recommending someone else in your comments but I think you two are the nicest makeup tubers around)
I love how Robert gives an explanation and justifies his techniques. I have vastly improved my makeup techniques from watching his videos! Also, his voice and aura is so calming 😌
Yes! He has completely changed how I hold my makeup brushes, how much product I use, where I place products... absolutely love his impeccable knowledge, teaching style, and personality! (Also he has me being way more hygienic with my products/brushes just by talking about the importance of hygienic practices for MUAs)
Exactly! He doesn't just say something vague like "do it this way because it's better." He actually explains *why* it's better for some, not all, circumstances and gives examples. My makeup skills are still lacking but are steadily improving (I've never been creative or artistic, so that's huge for me), which means he really is a good, effective teacher.
People mentioned you in Peter Monn's drama channel as an unproblematic make up guru hopefully you will start to receive the amount of subscribers you deserve love everything you and your bother do your both a breath of fresh air to UA-cam!
Hey Robert! I was wondering if you'd ever consider doing closer up shots like macro shots of your skin while you're doing skin prep and base products? I love to see the change in texture. I usually watch on my phone and when you say "can you see xyz" I often can't 😂 Great video as usual ❤️
Robert is so well mannered, honest and genuinely fun to be around...Just what we all need in to brighten the quarantine. Love both the brothers, helping me thrive this time.
Its been a while since we got a full on tutorial! Love it! And even though its sponsored, I love that its a full face tutorial with an accessible brand that IS decent quality.
Robert can you please film a video talking about products & techniques to use on mature skin (60+). Especially to do with makeup settling in lines/wrinkles.
@@bobbiobanion7706 No I haven't thank you for the suggestion😊. It's for my Mom, I'm still an young spring chicken at 32 even though somedays I don't feel it.😂

When your husband doesn't mind you buying some of the products mentioned in the video because he trusts Robert's opinions on this stuff just as much as I do😂❤️
Not gonna lie, I’ve been debating buying more elf with their spring sale. Then I see they sponsored Robert and suddenly I feel it’s my duty to shop and support elf.
I hated E.L.F when they first came onto the market as an affordable makeup brand. I tried them several times, but was really disappointed in the quality. In the past few years I've seen more MUA and influencers speaking positively and it took me hearing Robert talking positively to give them another shot and I was shocked and pleased. I'm glad that I can trust the Welsh brothers to be honest. Thank you 💖
Man just listening to you talk is so soothing, I’m absolutely shattered today and I literally just chilled out immediately 😂 you’ve got that ASMR voice 😂
Right lol. Check out a recent video he uploaded where it's just him putting on makeup for almost an hour with no edits and hes doing a voice over. I think it's called "stop ruining your makeup!" Even the way he applies his makeup is elegant and relaxing lol.
I’m 33 soon. My face is starting to change with age but my skin is the same as when I was a teen; so shiny and acne prone. It’s really hard not to feel like I’m doing something wrong?? I’m trying so hard 😥 Robert and James are so helpful for teaching me but also helping me *relax* about it all.
Robert I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for having someone like you on UA-cam. I was completely tired of not getting true and real life makeup techniques. I absolutely love you and your brother. ❤️❤️
The thing about makeup looks that use a lot of product is that while they look good on camera, they tend to looks cakey and flakey in person. For face-to-face situation less product is definitely better.
Oh it’s reallly not that interesting! I used to smoke years ago! When I was about 20 and the lighter was just crazy and it singed my lashes. For about a year they looked like they were stuck together
Thank you for the timestamps in the description Robert! Very helpful 😊 I'm continually impressed by your ability to make any colour work for you. Scientist, Historian, Scholar of 5 minute crafts and now Magician.
Even as my other makeup spending goes up, I can't bring myself to wear anything other than the Elf Expert Liquid Liner. Used to be a dollar, but it's still cheap and every other liner I try falls short
I don't wear make up. It's just not my aesthetic, i have nothing against people who do. However, does this stop me from loving every single video Robert does? Nope. Robert, you are my favorite person on UA-cam. Hands down. You are such an artist and we are so blessed to be able to hang out with you virtually. Thank you ❤ You bring us so much joy.
I love the camo cc cream, the hydrating camo concealer, and all three primers you used ! I use their mint primer, the putty primer, and the eyeshadow primers! I use the putty eye primer and the pro eyeshadow primer to help kind of soften the stiff formula of the putty eye primer
Wow Robert, I just noticed your subscriber count, your subscribers have grown BIG TIME since finding you! I actually knew it would bcz people love finding talented (& charming) men in the beauty community! Hugs from the states 🇺🇸
Love the eyeshadow sticks from elf. I bought one of every shade and he’s right about them acting as primers. They are awesome! Also if you order from the website you get beauty squad points that leads to free products and sometimes they send you products to test. I got that mascara as a promotion for feedback. Definitely a fan. ❤️
Robert is literally thee only person I've seen use the mini mint palettes that enjoys them. I dont know why, but no one can make them work for them. Looks sooo good when Robert uses them though
I was actually surprised seeing others say it didn’t work for them, I think maybe cause people initially blend and don’t pack first? Only thing I can guess, I love the minis
I have the mint mini and another ones and I really like them haha, they're actually really nice and cheap. Maybe it's the way you blend them or what you're used to 🤔🤔
Robert, you are the most informative makeup person (including all beauty gurus, famous MUAs, and everyone filming makeup content) on UA-cam. First of all, you really know about different makeup techniques, which is suitable for which skin type, which product would work and how it is better applied, which effect it gives, etc. Second of all, you really explain them with all reasons why. I feel like either people are not very careful about that knowledge (which is totally OK for other purposes) or know them but never explain it precisely. Either way, I cannot understand and apply them by myself. Thank you for being here, I am so happy to have you as a teacher.
I love the transparency in the title. E.L.F. has some staples that I use every time I do my makeup: Eye crease brush, HD undereye setting powder, brow/clear mascara.
I love that you love E.L.F. like I love it! And yes, you absolutely are the godfather of that concealer technique that is done everywhere now - Tik Tok, UA-cam, Instagram... no more triangles and I almost never see anyone "baking" anymore. You're the best, Robert! Reforming our creasy undereyes, one lower lid at a time!!
All I’ve been doing is trying new makeup this year, treating myself to ‘high end’ stuff some times- and honestly, ELF products are some of the best I’ve ever used! Their HD Camo concealer is my go-to 💖
It’s been my experience w/the elf eyeshadow sticks they need to be set otherwise they smear pretty badly. But generally, most other brands do set down & don’t move. PS - I absolutely L♥️VE E.L.F. too!
His personality is so loveable! And he seems like such a kind person, it makes me want to hug him. And just him as a human being is so wonderful! Not to mention the hard work he puts in his videos. Time stamps, great tips, new products, HORROR STORIES! Robert, YOU’RE WONDERFUL! 😭
I suffer with rosacea on my chin & nose; and the cc cream does a really good job of evening out my skin tone and covering the redness! It feels so light, and it looks natural 👏🏼 Could not recommended enough
Oh my god the little squeak he did when he was so excited about how nice the green eyeshadow was melted my heart.. I thought I couldn't love this guy more .. yay Robert 💕💕
There’s just something so calming and relaxing about watching Robert put his makeup on. Especially, drug store makeup. Like right now, all my stress went away. Even though all his videos are extremely easy to follow, my hand is just super heavy. I can’t even put lotion correctly you on my face 😅 regardless, I’m still super calm in watching him ❤️
Their felt tip eyeliner is my all time fav product they make! The color is highly pigmented, the tip is super sharp, and it costs only $3 USD. I love the look you created today and really want to try their Nourishing Facial Oil after seeing how well it works. Thanks again for sharing another amazing lewk 💜🤍🖤
Love it when you talk about drugstore makeup, I have a lot of great stuff in my collection from the drugstore and keep buying more, I do have a couple things that are on the other end but love ELF makeup the most !!
I usually only buy high end makeup, but ELF is my favourite drugstore brand. I liked their CC Camo cream which I used up, and also their liquid glitter eyeshadows.
E.l.f.and Salt New York are my favorite brands. Cruelty free and so easy to use. My wallet loves e.l.f. prices and products, while the Donna Meagle and Tom Haverford in me love to enjoy the finer things in life with Salt New York. Plus their blushes always make me feel so confident.
I absolutely love E.l.f products so much! Years ago are used to use health products when they weren’t so good to the point where I stopped using them but in the last few years they’ve stepped up the quality of their products so much that I absolutely love them and some of them are staples in my make up routine like the camo hydrating concealer is amazing. Are used to be obsessed with the Matte camo concealer but now I love the hydrating one more. ❤️❤️ I need to try the CC cream and I adore they’re little 4 pan shadows.
Love this ! It’s educational as well as just magical listening to Robert speak about the process. I can tell he loves what he does and truly understands what we want in products ! I live how excited she gets about products that deliver!
I have the eye putty primer, and was struggling as found it a little dry, but going to try it again with your suggestion warming it up. PS James would be proud of your pronunciation of niacinamde, I wonder if he can say juvia's place yet haha 🖤
Elf is one of the only brands that sells Foundation that works for me. There's also one of the only brands that sells makeup that doesn't break out my skin. I m mostly after their primers foundations and concealer
e.l.f. is a blessing, honestly. I feel so bad about the money I spent on “premium” brands when I got a new job and didn’t care about spending properly. I still have my favourites from the more expensive companies but I care more about quality now and elf are not bad at all most of the time!
I remember you saying that you don’t like accepting sponsorships on videos of reviewing & using products..but I’m so glad you did this! You deserve to get paid for stuff like this that you actually use!! We still trust that you’re giving your honest opinions, even with E.L.F sponsoring the video! (you & James are prolly the only ones I 100% trust)
Absolutely love ELF. I love the Hello Hydration face cream, the Wow Brow brow gel and the putty primer. To be honest though everything I’ve used from ELF has always been amazing!
I found Robert by accident on Facebook and absolutely love him. My fave make up artist by far. He's just so real and transparent about everything and I've learned more over the past few months from his videos than ever before. Absolute game changer finding him and I love trying his techniques. Thank you Robert. Don't ever change ❤
Thank you so much for doing videos with E.L.F. makeup! With covid I haven’t really been leaving my town at all and I don’t have a local Sephora or Ulta. But I do have a few drug stores so I have been able to try some really great make up and keep learning new techniques for a really decent price. Make up has become a hobby for me now. You are awesome Robert! Keep being you! 😀
I love E.L.F. I love how everything is super affordable. Those little bite-sized shadows are cute and great for quick look (and perfect for travel when we can do that again) and that one illuminating concealer is a current HG for me. I also get incredibly dry under my eyes despite how much hydration I give them - I'll try your tip of putting a drop of my favorite oil under my eye first and see if that helps.
ELF does have some good drugstore products. I have also noticed thanks to you Robert lots of other beauty you tubers are using less concealer and also using your placement💜. Thanks for always having great content!!
the fact that robert puts “ad” in his titles is next level transparency. much respect.
Me too - but to be fair, in the UK it’s the law
It may be the law in the UK to disclose whether it's an ad or not, it is highly appreciated here in the States!
Got "ad" in the title and on 39K reviews. Like, anyone else, I'd skip over any video that says ad. Not the Welsh twins though!

My skin doesn't know where it's going either!! I'm 38 and my skin acts like it's going thru puberty sometimes!! Come on!!!
I’m about to be 31, but my skin isn’t sure if it’s 15 or 55 😩 I feel your pain lol
I'm 34 and I swear my skin changes every third day.
It makes it easier to justify all the makeup though lol.
I’m 33 soon. My face is starting to change with age but my skin is the same as when I was a teen; so shiny and acne prone. It’s really hard not to feel like I’m doing something wrong?? I’m trying so hard 😥 Robert and James are so helpful for teaching me but also helping me *relax* about it all.
Wait until your 45, then your skin won't only be confused, it will be absent minded!
My skin was actually normal in my teens. It started acting up in my late 20s.
I'm 47 now and it's being a complete bitch.
Hurry up, menopause!
"They're lying and that do not want you to succeed in life" DEAD.
You are so precious. You make my day.
Robert I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for having someone like you on UA-cam. I was completely tired of not getting true and real life makeup techniques. I absolutely love you and your brother. ❤️❤️
OMG A BEUTY GURU THAT ACTUALLY HAS THE B@LLS TO PUT "AD" IN THE TITLE!?!?!?! Robert Welsh is the guru we all needed.
I love how your so delicate with every product. Doesn’t make me feel weird about not using tons of it like you see online Lol .
The thing about makeup looks that use a lot of product is that while they look good on camera, they tend to looks cakey and flakey in person. For face-to-face situation less product is definitely better.
i legit get insanely giddy when you say “yesssss”... i know it’s simple, but it brings me so much freaking joy. robert, you are my beauty guru.
Who-oooh! I’m so glad you’re reviewing this brand. This is the drugstore brand that proved that drugstore makeup can be amazing!
Full face of elf videos always make my bank account cry 😭 I love them!
The CC cream is amazing! E.L.F is stepping their game up
Hi Robert! Excited for this video, something in my price range!
Robert, I NEED the story of how you burned your lashes! I really really NEED to know!
Oh it’s reallly not that interesting! I used to smoke years ago! When I was about 20 and the lighter was just crazy and it singed my lashes. For about a year they looked like they were stuck together
Thank you for the timestamps in the description Robert! Very helpful 😊 I'm continually impressed by your ability to make any colour work for you. Scientist, Historian, Scholar of 5 minute crafts and now Magician.
Even as my other makeup spending goes up, I can't bring myself to wear anything other than the Elf Expert Liquid Liner. Used to be a dollar, but it's still cheap and every other liner I try falls short
I don't wear make up. It's just not my aesthetic, i have nothing against people who do. However, does this stop me from loving every single video Robert does? Nope. Robert, you are my favorite person on UA-cam. Hands down. You are such an artist and we are so blessed to be able to hang out with you virtually. Thank you ❤ You bring us so much joy.
2:20 When you say "my ring finger"... All your fingers are ring fingers 😆
That's what it's called
I love the camo cc cream, the hydrating camo concealer, and all three primers you used ! I use their mint primer, the putty primer, and the eyeshadow primers! I use the putty eye primer and the pro eyeshadow primer to help kind of soften the stiff formula of the putty eye primer
Wow Robert, I just noticed your subscriber count, your subscribers have grown BIG TIME since finding you! I actually knew it would bcz people love finding talented (& charming) men in the beauty community! Hugs from the states 🇺🇸
My favorite elf product is the tinted brow gel in dark brown it’s amazing and not clumpy
Love the eyeshadow sticks from elf. I bought one of every shade and he’s right about them acting as primers. They are awesome! Also if you order from the website you get beauty squad points that leads to free products and sometimes they send you products to test. I got that mascara as a promotion for feedback. Definitely a fan. ❤️
I just love when you review new drugstore stuff because it amazes me so much how drugstore has improved, especially elf!!!
Robert is literally thee only person I've seen use the mini mint palettes that enjoys them. I dont know why, but no one can make them work for them. Looks sooo good when Robert uses them though
Sponsored vs non sponsored
I was actually surprised seeing others say it didn’t work for them, I think maybe cause people initially blend and don’t pack first? Only thing I can guess, I love the minis
I have the mint mini and another ones and I really like them haha, they're actually really nice and cheap. Maybe it's the way you blend them or what you're used to 🤔🤔
all the you tubers i watch
loved them😭
Robert, you are the most informative makeup person (including all beauty gurus, famous MUAs, and everyone filming makeup content) on UA-cam. First of all, you really know about different makeup techniques, which is suitable for which skin type, which product would work and how it is better applied, which effect it gives, etc. Second of all, you really explain them with all reasons why. I feel like either people are not very careful about that knowledge (which is totally OK for other purposes) or know them but never explain it precisely. Either way, I cannot understand and apply them by myself. Thank you for being here, I am so happy to have you as a teacher.
This is the only makeup channel I watch now - I like how Robert is so upfront and real.
Such a nice notification on this gloomy Wednesday 😔💜
I hope you are fine and I wish you lots of endurance and happiness 💕
@@flowerofpurity you are so sweet thank u so much 💜 I hope you’re having a beautiful day
I never never never get tired of hearing your concealor/dark circles approach. Thank you for the refreshing perspective!
You and Alexandra Anele are my favourite beauty youtubers❤ So relaxing and informative to watch you!
I just love Robert I can literally watch him talk about anything.his voice is so soothing
I love the transparency in the title. E.L.F. has some staples that I use every time I do my makeup: Eye crease brush, HD undereye setting powder, brow/clear mascara.
Elf has good products, very easy on the budget and they deliver every time! My girlfriend loves their mascara.
The ELF eye colors are lovely!
Robert I think you are totes adorbs....
I learn so much from you and enjoy your sweet sense of humor.
I would love a Video "How to start". What to buy, what are the basics and how to deal with wrinkles and folds.
I love that you love E.L.F. like I love it! And yes, you absolutely are the godfather of that concealer technique that is done everywhere now - Tik Tok, UA-cam, Instagram... no more triangles and I almost never see anyone "baking" anymore. You're the best, Robert! Reforming our creasy undereyes, one lower lid at a time!!
Amen, the "baking" trend needed to die asap. So glad he used concealer that's a bit darker in order to avoid rings around the eyes.
All I’ve been doing is trying new makeup this year, treating myself to ‘high end’ stuff some times- and honestly, ELF products are some of the best I’ve ever used! Their HD Camo concealer is my go-to 💖
It’s been my experience w/the elf eyeshadow sticks they need to be set otherwise they smear pretty badly. But generally, most other brands do set down & don’t move.
PS - I absolutely L♥️VE E.L.F. too!
His personality is so loveable! And he seems like such a kind person, it makes me want to hug him. And just him as a human being is so wonderful! Not to mention the hard work he puts in his videos. Time stamps, great tips, new products, HORROR STORIES! Robert, YOU’RE WONDERFUL! 😭
I suffer with rosacea on my chin & nose; and the cc cream does a really good job of evening out my skin tone and covering the redness! It feels so light, and it looks natural 👏🏼 Could not recommended enough
Two of my favorite things Robert and elf, nice way to start a Wednesday 😊
Oh my god the little squeak he did when he was so excited about how nice the green eyeshadow was melted my heart.. I thought I couldn't love this guy more .. yay Robert 💕💕
There’s just something so calming and relaxing about watching Robert put his makeup on. Especially, drug store makeup. Like right now, all my stress went away. Even though all his videos are extremely easy to follow, my hand is just super heavy. I can’t even put lotion correctly you on my face 😅 regardless, I’m still super calm in watching him ❤️
Their felt tip eyeliner is my all time fav product they make! The color is highly pigmented, the tip is super sharp, and it costs only $3 USD. I love the look you created today and really want to try their Nourishing Facial Oil after seeing how well it works. Thanks again for sharing another amazing lewk 💜🤍🖤
I've used e.l.f. since high school (I'm 30 now) and have not used any other brand since. I love it so much!
Love it when you talk about drugstore makeup, I have a lot of great stuff in my collection from the drugstore and keep buying more, I do have a couple things that are on the other end but love ELF makeup the most !!
I usually only buy high end makeup, but ELF is my favourite drugstore brand. I liked their CC Camo cream which I used up, and also their liquid glitter eyeshadows.
Love your brush technique/pressure, so gentle and nice to watch. I learn so much from you and Lisa Eldridge 💜
Great look! Always learn something from u in every video. ELF has really stepped up their game with some great products. Thanks again! 💜💜💜💜
E.l.f.and Salt New York are my favorite brands. Cruelty free and so easy to use. My wallet loves e.l.f. prices and products, while the Donna Meagle and Tom Haverford in me love to enjoy the finer things in life with Salt New York. Plus their blushes always make me feel so confident.
I absolutely love E.l.f products so much! Years ago are used to use health products when they weren’t so good to the point where I stopped using them but in the last few years they’ve stepped up the quality of their products so much that I absolutely love them and some of them are staples in my make up routine like the camo hydrating concealer is amazing. Are used to be obsessed with the Matte camo concealer but now I love the hydrating one more. ❤️❤️ I need to try the CC cream and I adore they’re little 4 pan shadows.
Love this ! It’s educational as well as just magical listening to Robert speak about the process. I can tell he loves what he does and truly understands what we want in products ! I live how excited she gets about products that deliver!
That giggle when he said “oh there they are” is literally me every time I put mascara on at the end of my makeup routine lol. Love the vids❤️
I have the eye putty primer, and was struggling as found it a little dry, but going to try it again with your suggestion warming it up. PS James would be proud of your pronunciation of niacinamde, I wonder if he can say juvia's place yet haha 🖤
Elf is one of the only brands that sells Foundation that works for me. There's also one of the only brands that sells makeup that doesn't break out my skin. I m mostly after their primers foundations and concealer
That elf cream blush is everything. I have always wanted a cream blush able to work on top of powder and this one worked very well looking nice.
Retro Paradise is a really nice glowy collection by elf. 💛🧡 Very "golden hour".
Your skin looks incredible! I'm so happy to see ELF sponsoring such a genuine MUA. Kudos to ELF 👏🏽
e.l.f. is a blessing, honestly. I feel so bad about the money I spent on “premium” brands when I got a new job and didn’t care about spending properly. I still have my favourites from the more expensive companies but I care more about quality now and elf are not bad at all most of the time!
I remember you saying that you don’t like accepting sponsorships on videos of reviewing & using products..but I’m so glad you did this! You deserve to get paid for stuff like this that you actually use!! We still trust that you’re giving your honest opinions, even with E.L.F sponsoring the video! (you & James are prolly the only ones I 100% trust)
I absolutely LOVE ELF!!! Amazing products for less than drug store prices. I don’t know how they do it but I’m absolutely in love 😍
Robert and E.L.F in a video
My spirit is happy!!
That eye look is stunning. Using eyeshadow stick to prime for powder eyeshadow is such a great tip. Love these videos
You know it's a good day when Robert puts up a full face of video!
Yeah a new video on my birthday love it 😁❤
Happy Birthday!!
@@Bunnyetsuko Thank you 😁
Watching this video I couldn't help but get this Adam Lambert vibes of Robert, loving this look, especially the hair today!
Absolutely love ELF. I love the Hello Hydration face cream, the Wow Brow brow gel and the putty primer. To be honest though everything I’ve used from ELF has always been amazing!
I found Robert by accident on Facebook and absolutely love him. My fave make up artist by far. He's just so real and transparent about everything and I've learned more over the past few months from his videos than ever before. Absolute game changer finding him and I love trying his techniques. Thank you Robert. Don't ever change ❤
Thank you so much for doing videos with E.L.F. makeup! With covid I haven’t really been leaving my town at all and I don’t have a local Sephora or Ulta. But I do have a few drug stores so I have been able to try some really great make up and keep learning new techniques for a really decent price. Make up has become a hobby for me now. You are awesome Robert! Keep being you! 😀
I absolutely love Elf. As someone with mature skin it really works for me
I love E.L.F. I love how everything is super affordable.
Those little bite-sized shadows are cute and great for quick look (and perfect for travel when we can do that again) and that one illuminating concealer is a current HG for me.
I also get incredibly dry under my eyes despite how much hydration I give them - I'll try your tip of putting a drop of my favorite oil under my eye first and see if that helps.
ELF does have some good drugstore products. I have also noticed thanks to you Robert lots of other beauty you tubers are using less concealer and also using your placement💜. Thanks for always having great content!!
Since I saw your concealer tips other day, been trying the technique,my dark circles look way better 🎉
Why are his lips the PERFECT shape?❤️🥰🙄 literally jealous of how gorgeous the shape is….
