"Hi my name is Matt Cail on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm here today to talk about skeleton makeup. Here we have all of our vary tools that we are going to be using today to help use make our skeleton. For these items you are going to be able to find most of these in a standard grocery store. So we are going to start off with baby powder, same baby powder that you are going to be able to find at the grocery store along the baby isle that you probably don't go along. We also have basic paper towels to help us clean up any messes or corrections that we want to make. We also have a sock which we are actually going to be using to apply the baby powder later on. I also have a brush, this is a official makeup brush you don't have to go to a costume special shop to get something like this. So your sister or your moms would work really well too. But I didn't say that and the last thing that we have here is a little vile of blood. Next we have either the makeup or the tools that we are going to use to apply the makeup. I have a series of sponges here; 1 triangle shape and one more circular. I also got a nice little Q-tip shape sponge with a soft edge as more as bristly brushy end. This is good for hard to reach spaces. I also have some disposable Q-tips to make sure I'm not being too hard on my brushes or for some of the nukes and crannies you have to get into with the makeup. Then I also have brushes for some more detailed work to really get in there with really thin strokes if needed with the makeup. Of course last the makeup itself, this consisting of a black crayon makeup pen and a assortment of colors. We would be using the white and the black and red today and then some. Additionally some big ear cream makeups; white and black is going to be the majority of the face we are going to do today. "
