Hello, my name is John Mays. Some people refer to me as “Evil” John Mays. I’m here today to demonstrate some makeup techniques for Expertvillage.com. Okay, now we’re going kind of hardcore here, we’re going to put this screw as if it’s imbedded in her cheek and back out the other side. Same side as the stitches. This is toupee tape and you really use it for holding toupees on, but it’s a good tape, it holds on very well on skin. A lot of people in the effects industry use it to hold ball caps and other things near the hair line because it works well in that capacity. So we’re going to put the screw in there first. We’re going to put it on the screw, then we’re going to apply this to her face. We’re trying to figure out how to position this on her face. What we’re going to do is once this tape is on here, we’re going to cover it up with some makeup, you’ll never know it’s there. In fact, once I pull this white off, you’ll hardly even see the tape -see it’s fairly neutral. You need to push it down some.
