Renowned makeup artist and YouTuber Robert Welsh, known for his piercing critiques and expert insights, recently reviewed a video by Indian beauty influencer Ankush Bahuguna and was thoroughly impressed by his artistry.
Robert lauded Ankush’s innovative approach, especially his use of a perfectly toned orangey-peach color corrector to neutralize under-eye tones. Breaking traditional stereotypes, Ankush opted for a shade that blended naturally with his skin tone rather than the typical bright orange. Praising this thoughtful choice, Robert explained, “Color corrector doesn’t always have to be bright orange; it can be in tone with your skin tone and depth, just like Ankush has demonstrated here. His technique is spot on.”
What stood out even more was Ankush’s nuanced understanding of light and color placement. Instead of focusing solely on brightening the under-eye area, he created a radiant, lifted look by strategically applying lighter concealer to the cheekbone and blending it seamlessly with the under-eye concealer. “Creating those light points on the face is not just makeup; it’s science,” Robert remarked, emphasizing how Ankush’s technique manipulated light to shift attention away from under-eye hollowness.
Ankush added depth to the conversation by explaining how these techniques not only conceal but also enhance the overall structure of the face. His subtle use of powder to set the makeup earned further praise from Robert, who noted, “It’s beautiful to watch him work with nothing cakey, just flawless execution with the tiniest touch of powder.”
Robert concluded by expressing admiration for Ankush’s skill and originality, stating that he looks forward to seeing more of his content. This review marks a proud moment for the Indian beauty community as Ankush Bahuguna’s talent shines on a global platform.
